Fundamentalism, the Scopes Trial, and the Making of the Antievolution Movement

By Michael Lienesch

£37.14 15 Jan 2012 Audio Cd The University of North Carolina Press

Reaching back to the origins of antievolutionism in the 1920s, and continuing to the promotion of intelligent design today, Michael Lienesch skillfully analyzes the creationism movement, one of the most formidable political movements of the twentieth century. With fresh insights, Lienesch retells the story of the 1925 Scopes monkey trial and reinterprets its meaning. In tracking the movement from that time to today, he explores the rise of creation science in the 1960s, the alliance with the New Christian Right in the 1980s, and the development of the theory of intelligent design in our own time. He concludes by speculating on its place in the politics of the twenty-first century.

A History of Money and American Protestantism

By James Hudnut-Beumler

£32.34 15 Jan 2012 Network Resource The University of North Carolina Press

In a fascinating look into the economics of American Protestantism, Hudnut-Beumler examines how churches have raised and spent money from colonial times to the present and considers what these practices say about both religion and American culture. He contends that paying for earthly good works done in the name of God has proved highly compatible with American ideas of enterprise, materialism, and individualism. The financial choices Protestants have made throughout history— how money was given, expended, or even withheld— have reflected changing conceptions of what the religious enterprise is all about.

Rashid Rida's Modernist Defence of Islam

By Simon A. Wood

£20.00 01 Jan 2012 Paperback Oneworld Publications

Responding to arguments made in the Victorian period that Islam is 'irrational' or 'inferior to Christianity' and that the unification of religious and political power is a 'barrier to progress, ' Rida sought to defend Islam and often charged Christianity of its own brand of irrationality. Wood analyzes these arguments and contends that Rida's work cannot be separated from the period of colonial humiliation from which it originated. He also takes on the traditional accusation that Rida was a fundamentalist and argues that he was in fact distinctly modernist.

Mushrooms, Myths and Mithras

As Seen by His Contemporaries ASH-Shama'Il Al-Muhammadiyya

By Carl A.P. Ruck, Mark Alwin Hoffman

£16.99 09 Nov 2011 Paperback City Lights Books

This illustrated book traces the history of an unlikely force in the shaping of Western civilization: the use of psychedelic mushrooms, namely by a secret society called the cult of Mithras. Nero was the first emperor to be initiated by the group's "magical dinners," and most of his successors embraced the ritual as a source of spiritual transcendence. The cult was officially banned after the Conversion, but aspects of their rituals were assimilated or co-opted by Christianity, and the brotherhoods persist today as secret societies such as the Freemasons. This is a fascinating exploration of a powerful force kept behind the scenes for thousands of years.

Tracing the History of the Original Followers to Their Legacy Today

By Kenneth Hanson

£24.00 31 Aug 2011 Hardback Council Oak Books

Bringing together recent archeological discoveries and the best contemporary scholarship, Kenneth Hanson, Ph.D. tells a fascinating story that goes mostly untold in the New Testament about the ultimate fate of Jesus' mother, brothers, sisters, and closest followers. The story of the Jerusalem Church led by Jesus' brother James is dropped as the scriptural spotlight follows the ministry of Paul. Now, using the latest discoveries, including some of his own original research, Professor Hanson picks up the story where the Bible leaves off, answering a question that many Christians have long asked: Whatever happened to Jesus' family and this original Christian movement based in Jerusalem? Hanson's startling conclusion: It appears the followers of the Way of Jesus spearheaded a powerful revival of devotion within Judaism. Far from disappearing, this movement profoundly influenced the subsequent development of the Jewish faith, and, as Hanson shows, its legacy continues within Judaism.

02 Aug 2011 00:00:00 GMT

By Robert Loggins

£14.50 02 Aug 2011 Paperback Robert F Loggins Ministries LLC

The Good News Soul Winning Daily Devotional Prayer Journal expresses a deep passion for others. Hedonism is the doctrine devoted to the pursuit of pleasure and pursuing pleasure has enslaved many of the most passionate followers of Jesus Christ. This must change. Pastor Robert Loggins's ebullient passion for his love for Christ and the gospel message of hope and help was able to transcend self to service. He visualizes that the ultimate demonstration of service to one's fellowman is that of sharing Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit and love. He is convinced that many people's love of self dilutes authentic gospel power. Thus, giving rise to an unhealthy human pride, which hinders Christian service and love. Loggins wants every believer to become a model of humble servant-hood, which is impossible without prayer. Soul Winning begins and ends with prayer.

A schism has emerged between mainstream Islamist movements in the Muslim world (e.g. Hamas of Palestine and Hezbullah of Lebanon) and the uprooted militants who strive to establish an imaginary ummah, or Muslim community, not embedded in any particular society or territory. Roy provides a detailed comparison of these transnational movements, whether peaceful, like Tabligh Jamaat and the Islamic brotherhoods, or violent, like Al Qaeda. Neofundamentalism, he argues, is both a product and an agent of globalization.

Nonnus, Dionysus and the World of Late Antiquity

By Robert Shorrock

£19.99 24 Mar 2011 Paperback Bloomsbury Academic

With the adoption of Christianity as the official religion of the Roman world in the 4th century AD, the role of the poet underwent a radical transformation. A new figure, claiming inspiration from Christ, soon eclipsed the poet of the Muses, establishing a framework that still drives modern approaches to the period: Christian poetry is taken 'seriously' as making a valuable contribution to our understanding of the late antique world; 'pagan' or 'secular' poetry is largely ignored. The Myth of Paganism re-evaluates the role of 'pagan' poetry in late antiquity. Attention focuses on Nonnus' Dionysiaca - traditionally regarded as a 'pagan' epic in terms of theme and content, yet in all probability the work of a 'Christian' poet responsible for a Homeric-style retelling of St John's Gospel.

By Brian Golter

£11.99 01 Mar 2011 Hardback Ambassador Emerald International,US

This is a book about my boss June and what she taught me about getting the best job at the worst time.

For 20 years I watched as they came into her office: the unemployed, the unfulfilled, those with goals and those without, the educated and the uneducated. They all came wanting the same thing - to find a job. They entered her office worried, uncertain, unfulfilled and not sure of themselves. Some, like me, came feeling desperate and at their wits' end. But when they walked out of June's office, everything had changed. They were confident, focused and free from the fears that had been holding them back. They had rediscovered their passion and courage. And they found jobs. Not just any job. The right job at the right time. What went on in June's office to transform job seekers in such a profound way? How did she do it? What did she have? The good news is that you can have it too! The answers have the power to change your life and lie within the pages of this book.

On the Origins of Judaism

01 Mar 2011 00:00:00 GMT

By Philip R. Davies

£16.99 01 Mar 2011 Paperback Equinox Publishing Ltd

This book covers several basic issues in the formation of early Judaism. It explores the identity of those who produced and canonized the Hebrew Bible and subsequently shaped its interpretation, re-examines the significance and impact of Second Isaiah, and the books of Ezra and Nehemiah, traces the root of Jewish apocalyptic literature, and the possible origins of the exodus story. Two final chapters consider the mechanics of table fellowship in diaspora Judaism and consider the ethical systems of the Hebrew Bible and of the Athenian tragedians in the light of their respective social and political structures. Some of these essays have previously appeared but all have been revised.

Journey to the End of Islam

20 Jan 2011 00:00:00 GMT

By Michael Muhammad Knight

£12.99 20 Jan 2011 Paperback Soft Skull Press

In Journey to the End of Islam, Michael Muhammad Knight--whose work has led to him being hailed as both the Jack Kerouac and Hunter S. Thompson of American Islam--visits holy sites in Pakistan, Syria, Egypt, and Ethiopia, engaging both the puritanical Islam promoted by Saudi globalization and the heretical strands of popular folk Islam: shrines, magic, music, and drugs. The conflict of "global" and "local" Islam speaks to Knight's own experience approaching the Islamic world as a uniquely American Muslim with his own sources: the modern mythologies of the Nation of Islam and Five Percenters, as well as the arguments of Progressive Muslim thinkers for feminism and reform. Knight's travels culminate at Islam's spiritual center, the holy city of Mecca, where he performs the hajj required of every Muslim. During the rites of pilgrimage, he watches as all variations of Islam converge in one place, under the supervision of Saudi Arabia's religious police.

A Road Odyssey Through Islamic America

By Michael Muhammad Knight

£10.99 20 Jan 2011 Paperback Soft Skull Press

Michael Muhammad Knight embarks on a quest for an indigenous American Islam in a series of interstate odysseys. Traveling 20,000 miles by Greyhound in sixty days, he squats in run-down mosques, pursues Muslim romance, is detained at the U.S.-Canadian border with a trunkload of Shia literature, crashes Islamic Society of North America conventions, stink-palms Cat Stevens, and limps across Chicago to find the grave of Noble Drew Ali, filling dozens of notebooks along the way. The result is this semi-autobiographical book, with multiple histories of Fard and the landscape of American Islam woven into Knight's own story.

In the course of his adventures, Knight sorts out his own relationship to Islam as he journeys from punk provocateur to a recognized voice in the community, and watches first-hand the collapse of a liberal Islamic dream. The book's extensive cast of characters includes anarchist Sufi heretics, vegan kungfu punks, tattoo-sleeved converts in hard-core bands, spiritual drug dealers, Islamic feminists, slick media entrepreneurs, sages of the street, the grandsons of Elijah Muhammad and Malcolm X, and a group called Muslims for Bush.
