pokkari
"Feared by the bad, loved by the good" goes the song about Robin Hood, but in the case of Albert Ross, the distinction is not quite so clear-cut. For Albert is a coward, transferring his allegiance from Merry Men to Sheriff and back again at the drop of a hat - or rather, at the point of a sword. All of which lands Albert, his wife, Robin and Maid Marian in some very awkward situations...2 women, 7 men

sidottu
From his childhood in Melbourne, David Neilson (b. 1946) has been motivated by his twin loves of mountaineering and photography. He has made multiple expeditions to southwest Tasmania, Patagonia, and Antarctica, and published critically acclaimed photo books about each of these places; he has also carried his camera into the Karakoram, and the Alps of Australia, New Zealand, and Europe. In this oversize volume, Neilson recounts his lifelong quest to capture the mountain light and encourage the preservation of wild places. His most spectacular images of jagged peaks, massive glaciers, and hardy wildlife are reproduced as duotones of the highest quality. A number of vertical double-page images even invite readers to turn the book sideways to immerse themselves in the mountain heights. Chasing the Mountain Light will delight all lovers of the outdoors.

Habsburg Vienna, 1772.With nothing in her purse, Sophie Rathenau can't refuse work, even from a down-at-heel pimp. But tracing the woman who's gone off with his document is a chancy business.

What readers say: "A vivid historical world full of living characters""Excellent character... she feels very real to me""Seems to have all the elements of a great and successful book: a powerful heroine, political intrigue, and a riveting plot""Character and voice are what make this book distinctive...""Hard-bitten Jane Eyre""The setting is vivid. The characterization excellent. And of course the dialogue fantastic...""Sophie is awesome

The History of Christianity in West Papua to 2000

The History of Christianity in West Papua to 2000

David Neilson

Indian Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge
2021
pokkari
The western half of the second largest island on earth (greater New Guinea) has been absorbed into Indonesia since 1969. Its indigenous peoples are usually placed among the Melanesians or black islanders of the southwest Pacific, and they present a very complicated array of traditional languages and cultures, some of which are still barely open to the wider world. This is the first general history of the Christian presence in West Papua (formerly Irian Jaya), and takes us from missionary beginnings, at least from the 1850s, to the emergence of national churches at the dawn of the new millennium. The book details how Christian missions spread in the region and documents the nature and consequences of interactions between proud local peoples and daring outsiders.

Recognizing and Helping the Neglected Child

Recognizing and Helping the Neglected Child

Jane Scott; Brigid Daniel; Julie Taylor; David Derbyshire; Deanna Neilson

Jessica Kingsley Publishers
2011
pokkari
Neglect is the most common form of child abuse, but recognizing the signs, assessing the family's and the child's needs, and undertaking intervention can be difficult and complicated. This book, based on extensive research of the evidence, outlines how neglect can be recognized, examining the signs that parents give to signal their need for help, and the signs that a child's needs are not being met. It then covers how practitioners should respond, including assessment, planning, and appropriate interventions. The authors examine whether practitioners are well-equipped to recognize child neglect, and whether professional responses to help could be swifter. Finally, the prevention of child neglect is considered, and a proposal for a public health approach and early intervention is outlined. The book includes case studies and makes recommendations for policy and practice.This book will help practitioners to understand better child neglect and to improve practice in this important area. It will be vital for all those likely to encounter child neglect, including child and family social workers, health visitors, teachers with safeguarding responsibilities, nursery staff, and educational psychologists.

In the Trenches with Jesus and Marx

In the Trenches with Jesus and Marx

David Nelson Duke

The University of Alabama Press
2006
nidottu
This absorbing and insightful biography illuminates the life of the controversial champion of Social Gospel in early-20th-century America.Radical religious and political leader Harry F. Ward started life quietly enough in a family of Methodist shopkeepers and butchers in London. But his relentless pursuit of social justice would lead him to the United States and a long career of religious activism. Ward served as professor of Christian ethics at the Union Theological Seminary and chairman of the board of the American Civil Liberties Union for two decades. He also became a leader in labor groups, Protestant activist organizations, and New York intellectual circles. David Duke builds his comprehensive story of this fiery leader from extensive archival sources, including FBI files and private correspondence, sermons, class notes, and other unpublished material. Duke skillfully charts Ward's rise from an idealistic Methodist minister in a Chicago stockyard parish to a prominent national religious leader and influential political figure. Ultimately, Ward's lifelong attempt to synthesize the beliefs of Jesus and Marx and his role as an admirer of the Soviet Union put him on a collision course with McCarthyism in Cold War America. Viewed by some as a prophet and by others as a heretic, traitor, and communist, Ward became increasingly marginalized as he stubbornly maintained his radical positions. Even in his own circle, he went from being a figure of unquestioned integrity who eloquently spoke his convictions to a tragically short-sighted idealogue whose unwavering pro-Soviet agenda blinded him to the horrors of Stalinist oppression. Harry Ward's long, colorful career intersected nearly every intellectual current in American culture for more than a half century. This biography will be important for scholars of American religious history, students of liberalism and politics, social Christians, and general readers who enjoy a compelling tour into the private and public lives of notable figures of history.

Civil Endowment: The Transformation of Economic Power

Civil Endowment: The Transformation of Economic Power

David Nelson McCarthy

Rinchen, Incorporated
2015
nidottu
This breakthrough book proposes a simple yet profound economic innovation: a decentralized system of permanent capital endowments, all invested for the common good of humanity. The urgent challenges of our times-wealth inequality, ecological threats, and social instability-demand a thorough rethinking of economics, both theoretically and practically. Building on a foundation of six basic virtues that arise from the principle of an economics of compassion, David McCarthy guides us toward a leap of insight into the nature of economic capital, and points out the possibility of establishing civil endowments as a new structural dimension in the world economy. The book is practical as well as visionary-it includes a detailed proposal for civil society governance of the endowment system. Anyone who aspires for positive system change in economics will find this vision of civil endowment highly stimulating. It is provocative both in the realm of ideas and at the heart level. It is also a deeply compelling call to action.
