    The main purpose for writing this book is to inform readers about things God did during the seven years we were missionaries in New Zealand. One of those things is what God did to prove to us that the Boxing Day tsunami that hit Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and Chennai, India, was a judgment from Him. God also made us aware of why He did it. Another thing is what He did to prove to us the double tsunami that hit the two main islands of Samoa was also a judgment from Him. God also informed us why He did it. We also have evidence in the book that the 7,500 earthquakes and aftershocks that hit Christchurch, New Zealand, were another judgment from God. We also know why God did it. All this is explained in detail in the book. Those things will help readers better understand God''s ways and inspire them to trust Him more. May this book strengthen your faith to overcome every challenge you are facing.

    The Settlers around Mary Lake arrived in the early 1870s. Unlike many of the settlers of the day, most of these families came by steamship and were from well-educated middle class families. They soon formed a dynamic community around the lake that was focused on Port Sydney. Their concerts, readings, sports and social life were unique. These people intermarried and formed a society that is still strong and has made Port Sydney a special community.The authors prepared this book through hours of interviews with older members of the area. These older people provided invaluable pictures, information, anecdotes and insights into the lives of their parents and grandparents. The book is a window through which the reader can identify with this life around beautiful Mary Lake.

    What separates the chaos of fighting from the coherent ritual of boxing? According to author David Scott, it is a collection of aesthetic constructions, including the shape of the ring, the predictable rhythm of timed rounds, the uniformity of the boxers' glamorous attire, and the stylization of the combatants' posture and punches.

    When David Scott discovered his father was not who he thought he was, it was much more than the discovery of a family secret. It was an eye-opening revelation that explained the drive behind his rise to newspaper and political prominence. The tough upbringing, the disciplines of school and church life and the tears of a lonely child set the scene for a life-long adventure which started on his local newspaper when he was 17 and saw him rise to edit his first newspaper ten years later. This story covers the 'golden years' for local newspapers when advertising revenues and circulations boomed and many monopolistic titles were the next best thing to a licence for printing money. It didn't last. He has observed the sad decline of an industry he cares about and outlines some of the mistakes which he believes will result in the death of many regional newspapers.

    The mere thought of standing up and speaking in front of an audience of any kind fills many people with dread whether it be at work, at a wedding or, heaven forbid, at a conference. This book is not about the experiences of professional speakers but a collection of stories - many humorous, some serious - written by ordinary people ranging from regional newspaper editors to church ministers, from teachers to Parliamentary candidates. David Scott has called upon his own contact with the great British public to reveal that speakers should always expect the unexpected. He offers guidance to those taking their first tentative steps into the world of public speaking and ends with a chapter of jokes which can be told on any occasion. It is a useful guide to what anyone might expect when leaving the comfort of their warm homes or offices for draughty village halls and sometimes unforgiving audiences.

  • - Criticism after Postcoloniality
    af David Scott
    632,95 kr.

    How can we best forge a theoretical practice that directly addresses the struggles of once-colonized countries, many of which face the collapse of both state and society in today's era of economic reform? David Scott argues that recent cultural theories aimed at "e;deconstructing"e; Western representations of the non-West have been successful to a point, but that changing realities in these countries require a new approach. In Refashioning Futures, he proposes a strategic practice of criticism that brings the political more clearly into view in areas of the world where the very coherence of a secular-modern project can no longer be taken for granted. Through a series of linked essays on culture and politics in his native Jamaica and in Sri Lanka, the site of his long scholarly involvement, Scott examines the ways in which modernity inserted itself into and altered the lives of the colonized. The institutional procedures encoded in these modern postcolonial states and their legal systems come under scrutiny, as do our contemporary languages of the political. Scott demonstrates that modern concepts of political representation, community, rights, justice, obligation, and the common good do not apply universally and require reconsideration. His ultimate goal is to describe the modern colonial past in a way that enables us to appreciate more deeply the contours of our historical present and that enlarges the possibility of reshaping it.
