My hands closed the cedar casket lid for its final rest, forever sealing an image of a dead man into my memory. Old Navajo death belief dictates that a dead person must be buried within four days of his final breath on God's red earth, so that he may finish his journey into his next life. This is the fourth day for his cold body.

Jake Sinclair, a Yankee, traveled to Pelicans Haven Plantation at the end of the Civil War to honor a dying father's request, and immediately fell in love with Roseanna Ravenna, the father's daughter. Circumstances make them marry to save Roseanna's home from a greedy uncle even though they were strangers. Their marriage blossoms when Roseanna surrenders to her husband, and now Mama Teal, an old servant, predicts Roseanna is with child. In book three of this trilogy, the crises are in the past as Roseanna and her cousin, Nancy, vow to restore the plantation to the magnificent cotton producer it was before the war. Roseanna is duty bound to fulfill the dream and promise of her father, and return the Ravenna Stables, home of great thoroughbred racehorses, to the plantation. She is the last Ravenna to make the dream come true. Miles away someone is desperate to reach Pelicans Haven. Who is it and what do they want? Will it change Roseanna and Jake's lives and put their happiness in jeopardy?
Contrary to charges of religious “dogma,” Christian actors in international politics often wrestle with the lack of a clear path in determining what to do and how to act, especially in situations of violence and when encountering otherness. Lynch argues that it is crucial to recognise the ethical precarity of decision-making and acting. This book contextualizes and examines ethical struggles and justifications that key figures and movements gave during the early modern period of missionary activity in the Americas; in the interwar debates about how to act vis-à-vis fascism, economic oppression and colonialism in a “secular” world; in liberation theology's debates about the use of violence against oppression and bloodshed; and in contemporary Christian humanitarian negotiations of religious pluralism and challenges to the assumptions of western Christianity. Lynch explores how the wrestling with God that took place in each of these periods reveals ethical tensions that continue to impact both Christianity and international relations.

White Hip Hoppers, Language and Identity in Post-Modern America
Cecelia Cutler
Routledge

This book examines language and identity among White American middle and upper-middle class youth who affiliate with Hip Hop culture. Hip Hop youth engage in practices that range from the consumption of rap music and fashion to practices like MC-ing (writing and performing raps or "rhymes"), DJ-ing (mixing records to produce a beat for the MC), graffiti tagging, and break-dancing. Cutler explores the way in which these young people stylize their speech using linguistic resources drawn from African American English and Hip Hop slang terms. She also looks at the way they construct their identities in discussions with their friends, and how they talk about and use language to construct themselves as authentic within Hip Hop. Cutler considers the possibility that young people experimenting with AAVE-styled speech may improve the status of AAVE in the broader society. She also addresses the need for educators to be aware of the linguistic patterns found in AAVE and Hip Hop language, and ways to build on Hip Hop skills like rhyming and rapping in order to motivate students and promote literacy.
The worst day of my life was April 25, 2008, but the events that led up to that day began much earlier.
People professions - such as social work, teaching, nursing, ministry and counselling - are at heart ethical or moral enterprises. Much recent theorizing has been concerned to show that effective professional deliberation and judgement cannot be reduced either to technical rationality or to simple obedience to general occupational procedures or prescriptions. Professional judgement would seem to require the development of a distinctive mode of practical (ethical) reflection or 'wisdom' - perhaps along the lines of Aristotle's 'phronesis' or practical wisdom. Reflection is required to address such key professional concerns as: What is the impact of official prescription and regulation on professional judgement? How should conflicts of professional judgement and public/political accountability be resolved? How might one reconcile tensions between universal justice and equality and particular client need? What is the role of emotion and/or affect in 'people professional' practice? This ground-breaking work addresses, in a thoroughly multidisciplinary way, the central question of the nature of professional judgement and deliberation that has recently come to the fore in the academic literature of profession and professionalism. It proposes a marked shift - in theory, practice and policy-making - away from technical-rational approaches to professional decision-making in favour of reflection and deliberation informed by responsible moral judgement. This reflects a significant progressive trend in this literature by taking practical wisdom, rather than technical rationality, to lie at the heart of professional judgement. It is unique in bringing together key authors from different professional fields to address the issue of professional wisdom in a cross-professional and multidisciplinary way.
