Ethiopia: The Last Two Frontiers

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Markakis, John, PUBLISHER: James Currey, Provides the gist of one scholar's knowledge of this country acquired over several decades. The author of numerous works on Ethiopia, Markakis presents here an overarching, concise historical profile of a momentous effort to integrate a multicultural empire into a modern nation state. The concept of nation state formation provides the analytical framework within which this process unfolds and the changes of direction it takes under different regimes, as well as a standard for assessing its progress and shortcomings at each stage. Over a century old, the process is still far from completion and its ultimate success is far from certain. In the author's view, there are two major obstacles that need to be overcome, two frontiers that need to be crossed to reach the desired goal. The first is the monopoly of power inherited from the empire builders and zealously guarded ever since by a ruling class of Abyssinian origin. The descendants of the people subjugated by the empire builders remain excluded from power, a handicap that breeds political instability and violent conflict. The second frontier is the arid lowlands on the margins of the state, where the process of integration has not yet reached, and where resistance to it is greatest. Until this frontier is crossed, the Ethiopian state will not have the secure borders that a mature nation state requires. John Markakis is a political historian who has devoted a professional lifetime to the study of Ethiopia and its neighbors in the Horn of Africa. He has published several books and many articles on this area.

The Joyful Dark

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Miller, Michael, PUBLISHER: Ashland Poetry Press, Michael Miller's "The Joyful Dark" is the first book of poems by an accomplished American poet who is currently in the seventh decade of his life. Michael Miller's poems have been praised by such renowned poets as James Merrill, Richard Wilbur, Stephen Spender and Thom Gunn, and have appeared in such venues as "The Kenyon Review, The Sewanee Review, The American Scholar, The New Republic, The Southern Review," and "The Yale Review." "The Joyful Dark" is, in part, a celebration of sexuality within a life-long committed marriage. Michael Miller also writes beautifully of the natural world, with many individual poems devoted to embodying in language the spirit of individual animals: white owl, shark, young whales, crow, red-wing, mallard, and hummingbird. His poems are, in Richard Wilbur's words, a "pleasure in their seeing, their assured phrasing, their true and proportionate feeling."

So You Think You Know Me?

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Weaver, Allan, PUBLISHER: Waterside Press, The autobiography of an ex-offender and twice-times inmate of Barlinnie Prison, now a social work team-leader in his native Scotland. As a local hard case, author Allan Weaver took no prisoners. Neither does he in this compelling work in which he tells of a life of violent episodes and chaotic early life. Teachers, social workers and 'authority figures' never tried 'to get to know him' to unearth the clues and triggers and discover what his offending was all about. A natural rebel and a radical, it is hardly surprising that by ignoring the real Allan Weaver this led to an escalation of his violent activities, tensions between family and friends and dubious associates. So You Think You Know Me? is packed with contradictions: the Allan Weaver involved in mayhem and aggression is not the one telling the story from inside his own head: an often vulnerable, sensitive, articulate, unquestionably loyal and even-handed individual; mistaken, misguide and foolish perhaps but largely trapped by an increasing need to live up to his 'tough guy' reputation. That there can be any tidy ending to this graphic true-life account of approved school, assessment centres, care homes, borstal and Glasgow's notorious Barlinnie Prison is quite remarkable yet Allan Weaver survived to obtain a degree from Strathclyde University and to work on the inside of the Criminal Justice System with young people who, like he was, are in trouble with the law. The punches that he now throws are directed towards the shortcomings of a system which he believes is failing to do all that it could to turn them away from crime and anti-social behaviour as he explains in this heartfelt autobiography. Essential reading for anyoneinvolved with serious young offenders, especially those of a violent disposition. Acquista Ora

The Leadership of Jesus: And Its Legacy Today

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Adair, John, PUBLISHER: Canterbury Press, Two thousand years on, Jesus of Nazareth still attracts hundreds of millions of followers world wide. A genius for leadership is self-evident and yet John Adair, the internationally renowned author and consultant on leadership, finds that little has been said or written about this aspect of Jesus, despite the world's hunger for visionary, inspirational leaders. Using the body of knowledge about leadership that we have today, he offers a captivating analysis of Jesus as a leader - then and now. 'Jesus is one of the few individuals who seem somehow to rise above history, nationality, race, gender and creed - he belongs to us all. What is his contribution to that timeless yet timely leadership that the world needs today.' John Adair in his introduction

Upon a Dark Night

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lovesey, Peter, PUBLISHER: Mysterious Press, Peter Diamond, head of the murder squad in Bath, has high blood pressure and low spirits, neither of which are improved by two mysterious deaths in his district. An unidentified woman has jumped from the roof of a local landmark, and an elderly farmer has killed himself with a shotgun. Open and shut suicides? Not to the keen eye of this large detective. Adding to the general muddle is a nagging problem that won't go away; namely the aggressive Ada Shaftesbury, a petty thief with a tender heart for the lonely people who wander into the halfway house that she lives in. When one of those strays -- an amnesiac whom Ada calls Rose -- is adopted by a too good to be true "sister", Ada insists that she's in trouble. Diamond is reluctant to investigate; reluctant, that is, until it appears that "Rose" has some sort of connection to the murders he's investigating. Diamond must figure out the connection and find a killer, all upon a dark night....

The Companion to Homeopathy: The Practitioner's Guide

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Griffith, Colin / Castro, Miranda, PUBLISHER: Watkins Publishing, Homeopathy--helping the body to heal itself--is an extraordinarily powerful and increasingly popular health care system. While orthodox medicine focuses on the physical body, homeopathy treats the whole person, taking into account personal history, environmental factors, and any hereditary vulnerabilities to particular illnesses or conditions. Written by highly-respected practitioner and lecturer Colin Griffith, this comprehensive guide to homeopathy is a superbly informative resource, with answers to common questions, examples and case histories, and an examination of controversial issues, such as immunization, mind-altering drugs, and karma. Griffith also addresses many of the myths that have come to overshadow the true practice of, and benefits from, homeopathy.

Narrators and Focalizers: The Presentation of the Story in

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: de Jong, Irene, PUBLISHER: Bristol Classical Press, Acclaimed as one of the pioneering texts to introduce narratology (the theory that deals with the general principles underlying narrative texts) to classical scholarship, Irene de Jong's Narrators and Focalizers explains key concepts such as 'narrator', 'focalization' and 'prolepsis', highlighting their relevance by using them for the analysis and interpretation of Homer's Iliad. What is the role of the narrator, and how do the parts of the story told by the narrator relate to the many speeches for which Homer is famous?This, the most important work on Homer's technique as narrator, was first published in . It is here reissued with a substantial new Introduction by the author, offering an overview of the trends in Homeric narratological scholarship over the last decade.

Silent Covenants: Brown V. Board of Education and the

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bell, Derrick, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, When the landmark Supreme Court case of Brown vs. Board of Education was handed down in , many civil rights advocates believed that the decision, which declared public school segregation unconstitutional, would become the Holy Grail of racial justice. Fifty years later, despite its legal irrelevance and the racially separate and educationally ineffective state of public schooling for most black children, Brown is still viewed by many as the perfect precedent. Here, Derrick Bell shatters the shining image of this celebrated ruling. He notes that, despite the onerous burdens of segregation, many black schools functioned well and racial bigotry had not rendered blacks a damaged race. He maintains that, given what we now know about the pervasive nature of racism, the Court should have determined instead to rigorously enforce the "equal" component of the "separate but equal" standard. Racial policy, Bell maintains, is made through silent covenants--unspoken convergences of interest and involuntary sacrifices of rights--that ensure that policies conform to priorities set by policy-makers. Blacks and whites are the fortuitous winners or losers in these unspoken agreements. The experience with Brown, Bell urges, should teach us that meaningful progress in the quest for racial justice requires more than the assertion of harms. Strategies must recognize and utilize the interest-convergence factors that strongly influence racial policy decisions. In Silent Covenants, Bell condenses more than four decades of thought and action into a powerful and eye-opening book.
