Through a lens starkly, undertake a photographic odyssey into the sun-baked heart of Morocco's High Atlas Mountains. Spanning the years 1975-1981, Pierre Toutain-Dorbec's visits with the Imazighen people who live in the Imilchil region, led to a visual record and testament to a pastoral way of life attuned to the cyclical flux of seasons, to the rhythms of nature herself. This exquisite black-and-white collection reflects a chronologically compressed life in the day of the Imazighen, underscored by the interior narratives and silent stories implied in a stunning montage of portraits, while also capturing the grit, symmetry and high-desert mystique of the resident landscape.
For more than a century, historians and writers on Africa have almost invariably associated the name Mlozi with all the cruellest excesses of the central and east African slave trade during the nineteenth century. That Mlozi bin Kazbadema was a significant slaver who conducted his trade according to all the brutal conventions of his period is beyond dispute. His subsequent botched hanging at the end of a British-sponsored rope, following a drum-head trial of questionable legality, has been generally regarded as well-deserved and a fitting, if muscular, exemplar of Pax Britannica in action. In The End of the Slaver, a title taken from recollections of Mlozi's hanging by the medical missionary Dr. Kerr Cross, author David Stuart-Mogg examines Mlozi's life and milieu and carefully weighs the often conflicting evidence apparent between official military and government reports and the largely unpublished private letters and diaries written at the time by those who participated in Mlozi's downfall and elimination. Stuart-Mogg's carefully evaluated findings call into serious question the altruism and philanthropy that the ultimate, and inevitable, victors of the struggle accorded their actions and their undoubtedly laudable ultimate objective - the eradication of slavery in British Central Africa. Referring to this book as 'an unusually stimulating study, Professor Shepperson recommends that The End of the Slaver deserves to be widely-read, not only by those whose primary interest is in the history of Malawi but also by students of slavery and the anti-slavery movements in the nineteenth century - and, indeed by all who are concerned with man's inhumanity to man.

This story of heartache and suspense will keep you guessing until the very end...It's the fall of 1954; eight-year-old Lily and her two-year-old brother are playing on the porch of an isolated farmhouse in rural California. They suddenly hear the reverberating boom of a shotgun in the house. Lily rushes inside and watches in horror as she sees her mother, Ellen, bleeding from a shotgun wound to the abdomen.No one is prepared for the burden of having to care for Ellen's three children, and after Ellen's death, Lily is sent to live with her grandmother, and her two half-siblings are orphaned off to whichever of their father's relatives agree to "keep" them. Ellen's husband, Orville, proclaims his innocence but keeps vanishing and reappearing without notice.Lily's gypsy grandmother, Pet, as she likes to be called, is tormented by her daughter's death but is unable to confront her pain as she drags Lily through a myriad of rural California towns in search of work. Lily is thrust into one school after another, navigating whispers and rumors about Ellen's death while clinging desperately to her mother's memory.The coroner rules the death a suicide without any real investigation, though suspicions linger that the jealous-hearted husband is guilty. Will the tragedy and the town gossip that follows tear the family apart?This story takes you down winding paths filled with in-depth perspectives from friends and relatives, trying to determine what really happened. Was it a suicide or a heinous murder?
This dissertation contributes to the fields of medical sociology, environmental health, and public health by examining the effects of social stratification on environmental exposures and physical morbidity. Although previous conceptual models suggest that the unequal distribution of environmental exposures may help to explain race/ethnic and socioeconomic differences in physical health, there is little to no empirical evidence to support these processes. Building on previous research. I use data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (2007-2008) to formally assess the following questions: 1) Does exposure to environmental toxins vary according to race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status? 2) Do race/ethnic and socioeconomic differences in environmental exposures help to explain race/ethnic and socioeconomic differences in physical health? The results of this research extend the literature by revealing empirically the unequal exposures to environmental toxins by race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status. Specifically, race/ethnic minorities (Blacks and Hispanics) and individuals with lower levels of socioeconomic status are disproportionately exposed to environmental toxins. Although overall toxin exposure and lead were unrelated to self-rated health, cadmium. was found to partially mediate race/ethnic and socioeconomic differences in self-rated health.

UNA DE LAS MÁS IMPORTANTES EXPOSICIONES DE LA TEOLOGÍA BÍBLICA DEL NUEVO TESTAMENTO Aunque ningún documento individual del Nuevo Testamento pretende ofrecer una teología exhaustiva, Thomas Schreiner sugiere que ciertos temas recurrentes surgen del estudio del conjunto. En este volumen, Schreiner rastrea los temas clave que aparecen a lo largo del canon neotestamentario, explorando los énfasis que surgen de una lectura detallada de los textos.El enfoque de Schreiner se basa en una sólida exégesis de todos los textos clave y le conduce a una visión unificada de la enseñanza fundamental del Nuevo Testamento. Se centra especialmente en dos temas generales. El primero se refiere a la unidad de la historia redentora y el reino de Dios. El Nuevo Testamento retoma las imágenes del Antiguo Testamento y afirma que el reino ha llegado (aunque sigue sin cumplirse) en Jesucristo. El segundo tema relacionado se refiere al objetivo del reino: la gloria de Dios a través de la obra de Cristo y la presencia potenciadora del Espíritu. En la segunda mitad de la obra, Schreiner aborda la cuestión de lo que estos temas significan para la vida del creyente y el ministerio de la comunidad de fe.>"Thomas Schreiner es conocido por ser un hábil y cuidadoso estudioso del Nuevo Testamento. En su Teología del Nuevo Testamento saca a relucir sus habilidades y su estilo claro y conciso al ofrecernos un relato sintético de este complejo tema, un relato que refleja su elevada visión de las Escrituras. Se trata probablemente de la mejor teología del Nuevo Testamento escrita en las últimas décadas desde un punto de vista decididamente reformado y evangélico".Ben Witherington III >"La Teología del Nuevo Testamento de Schreiner ha sido desde hace tiempo esperada por colegas, amigos y estudiantes. El apéndice, que ofrece un útil estudio de la disciplina de la teología del Nuevo Testamento, y la discusión de la justificación, que contiene un resumen del debate moderno y una defensa de la interpretación forense de la enseñanza paulina, valen por sí solos el precio del libro".Robert H. Stein >Sobre el autor: THOMAS R. SCHREINER (PhD, Seminario Teológico Fuller) es catedrático James Buchanan Harrison de Interpretación del Nuevo Testamento y profesor de Teología Bíblica en el Seminario Teológico Bautista del Sur de Louisville, Kentucky. Es autor de numerosos libros, y reconocido como unos de los más importantes eruditos bíblicos de la actualidad.

"Among the many exponents of the ideals of the Order of Saint Dominic, the fourteen canonized saints stand out pre-eminently. It is the purpose of this book to outline briefly the lives of these fourteen saints, and to indicate where further information regarding them may be obtained. The writers have drawn their material from scattered but authentic sources in the hope of showing how the spirit of Saint Dominic was, humanly speaking, the mainspring of the activities of these exponents, the guiding principle in the development of their characters, and the lodestar of their lives."Here are related the astonishing lives of fourteen saints of the Dominican Order, including St. Dominic, St. Catherine of Siena, Pope St. Pius V, St. Rose of Lima, St. Vincent Ferrer, and more. An encyclical on the Dominican Order by Pope Benedict XV and a list of all the Dominican Saints and Blesseds (as of 1921) complete this wonderful introduction to the "Dogs of the Lord."

The PEIS Plan: The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is deemed the most intractable conflict in modern times: Every plan since the mid-20th century comes to dead ends. This book introduces a novel solution that can resolve this conflict once and for all. The "deus ex machina" in this book is the introduction of the Sinai Peninsula. Egypt would sell the "bad" part of the Sinai Peninsula to the Palestinians; the Palestinians would combine that purchase with the Gaza Strip to create a contiguous, two-seas-access new nation alongside Israel but 50% bigger; the Israelis would purchase the West Bank from the Palestinians to achieve their yearn for the "Land of Israel", and give the Palestinians the means to purchase their portion of the Sinai Peninsula.The PEIS Plan stands for the Palestine-Egypt-Israel-Sinai peace plan. This book summarizes the current conflict, describes the solution, and explains why the Egyptians, Palestinians, Israelis, and the other parties in the conflict such as the Bedouins and Islamic insurgents, should welcome the PEIS Plan, and how the PEIS Plan, in one stroke, would resolve the status of Jerusalem, the right of return of the Palestinian diaspora, the feud between Hamas and the Palestinian Administration, the Sinai insurgency against Egypt, and how Israel could ultimately afford to pay for this Plan to unify the country.
