From current day sectarianism to the Free Church, religion has had a dominant effect upon society in Scotland for centuries. In this topical and thought-provoking book, Callum Brown examines the role of religion in the making of modern Scottish society. Tackling important contemporary themes such as the role of the Kirk in national identity and the growth of secularisation, he explains the history of Catholicism, Presbyterianism and Episcopalism over the last 250 years in an accessible and readable way.

This is the first book devoted to an oral history of a British university during the 'swinging sixties'. Students, lecturers and support staff are interviewed about teaching and working on campus in the mid-twentieth century. Told in their own words, it is a story of struggle and sacrifice, pride and commitment. It reveals how the modern university transformed lives, how new technologies propelled path-breaking research, and how with new skills its graduates could remodel society. The University of Strathclyde was created in central Glasgow in 1964 from the merger of two higher-education colleges. The Andersonian started in 1796 as Britain's first college to offer technical-based higher education to both women and artisans, whilst the Commercial College's opening literary night in 1847 was chaired by Charles Dickens. By the 1950s, both colleges still offered students 'useful knowledge' in engineering and commercial subjects, and launched them into local employment according to family traditions. But then in the mid-1960s, industrial decline struck Glasgow.Against the backdrop of the city's tough reputation and devastating social problems, lecturers and students with a mission to improve society came to a new University that offered opportunity -- especially to women, mature students, the working classes and minority groups. Eschewing institutional history, this book debunks the myth of the drop-out generation of sixties' students, their drugs and underground culture. It shows how one University developed as a community of the dedicated and brilliant, creating the learning and researching environment which made 'Going to the Unie' the classic formative experience of the British people in the late twentieth century.
The note rested heavily in Logan's hand. He had failed again and been pushed into the past. He'd fought one of the Kino Three, a fighter superior to anyone he remembered fighting, gathering the confidence from somewhere unknown and easily using fighting moves he didn't remember learning. But still, he'd lost. Logan still couldn't understand why the note begged him to return The Crystal Sword, why The Kino Three had then refused to take it back, why he'd been placed out here of all places. Then there were the weird, but what felt like, very real dreams and memories he'd had lately. As the sand swirled around Logan's feet, he read the faded note another time. Its warnings had happened but there was something about this note he was forgetting. Something important, at the edge of his muddled memories, that still hadn't come forward. A memory that would hopefully change the dire situation they had found themselves in. Something that would actually get them back home. Logan wakes up in his sleeping bag with a sore head and even more strange memories crowding his mind. He steps from the tent to find he's back at the survival campsite, but they're not in rural New Zealand anymore. The rolling hills replaced by towering sand dunes on every side. The shock wears off quickly as their desperate situation sets in. With little water and the harsh sun and flying sand burning their skin, they will have to find help fast or at least a way out of the desert. What Logan finds across the endless sand might be their only hope, but it also stirs memories which can't be true. And if they are true, Logan has failed and has a long road ahead of him to set it right. Because once they are out of the desert, what will they do next? A time travel adventure, where every choice is weighed against their survival in the harshest place they have ended up in so far. UK Version Human crafted and written.

Why Your Purpose Can Give Clarity For a few years, I had been working as an engineer for British Telecom. the work was good and interesting, and I gained a certain amount of fulfillment from the work. The interesting thing though, I wasn't aware of my life purpose. Had I known my life purpose, I believe my life would have been different. The interesting thing, a few years later, after I had left British Telecom, I found out my life purpose. By knowing my life purpose, I was able, to really get great joy, and satisfaction, from my work. So how did I discover my life purpose, and what was the journey that took me to that place. This book takes you through the journey of how I discovered my life purpose.

"Convincing analysis; empowering vision."--David Suzuki, scientist and host of the CBC's "The Nature of Things""A pioneering work in ethics and economics for the new global era raising all the hard questions that we need to think about in the coming decades, and proposing a radically new way of thinking about how the global community should function."--Peter Singer, Ira W. DeCamp professor of bioethics, Princeton University"Peter Brown has given us a structure that unites an economics of stewardship with a politics of trusteeship, based on an ethics of rights and corresponding duties. Highly recommended "--Herman E. Daly, University of MarylandIn this important book Peter G. Brown seeks to chart a new future for all who share this planet. Through a series of careful arguments, he identifies three challenges ahead of us: first, to come up with an adequate account of our minimal obligations to each other, and to the rest of the natural order; second, to redefine and reshape the institutions of economics, government, and civil society to reflect these obligations; and third, to reconceptualize and redirect the relations between nations to foster these institutions and discharge these obligations. Brown also argues that we have direct moral obligations to non-humans--this he calls "respect for the commonwealth of life."Peter G. Brown is a professor at McGill University and director of the McGill School of Environment in Montreal. He is the author of "Restoring the Public Trust: A Fresh Vision for Progressive Government in America."
