"Mulki Al-Sharmani examines the goals, approaches and methodologies which key scholars have adopted in their efforts at crafting an Islamic feminist discourse. Al-Sharmani also shows that Islamic feminism is a phenomenon which extends far beyond academia. Drawing on the author's own extensive research and interviews with women in Egypt, the UK, Malaysia, Finland and elsewhere, the book explores how ordinary Muslim women in both the West and the Islamic world are increasingly asserting their autonomy and challenging patriarchal interpretations of their religion, as well as exploring the linkages between Islamic feminist scholarship and the realities of these women's lived experiences"--

This edited collection explores whether the cultural and organisational realities of Catholicism, along with its underpinning theology, led to abuse by clergy being made possible. Written by a panel with expertise in the myriad implications of abuse, this book addresses issues such as the spiritual dynamics of abuse; the resultant psychological issues of abuse and restorative justice. It also discusses the place of children of clergy and the sexual misconduct of priests with adults. This is vital reading for any academic of Theology, Religious Studies, Psychology and Law who wants to better understand the dynamics at work in these instances of abuse.

Kinship and Community: Highlights from the Texas African American Photography Archive celebrates the rich history of photography created by and for Black communities in Texas. From eighteenth-century ambrotype portraits by unidentified photographers to the work of self-employed photographers serving segregated towns and neighborhoods in the mid-twentieth century, a rich body of photography was created by and for Black communities in Texas. The Texas African American Photography Archive (TAAP), founded in 1995 by Alan Govenar and Kaleta Doolin, contains more than sixty thousand negatives and prints from this history. Kinship and Community distills the archive's remarkable photographs into a moving testament to the medium and its transformative power. Filled with joy and pride, the images in this volume portray exemplary individuals and groups while documenting the parades, church services, graduations, and sporting events that punctuated everyday life. These positive depictions of Black life, by countering the mainstream media's racist stereotypes, played a quiet but powerful role in the struggle for civil rights.	Today, community photography provides a model for collaborative image-making, its vitality stemming from this union of ethics and aesthetics. Many of the photographers featured in Kinship and Community learned their trade in the military or from other Black photographers. As the civil rights era progressed, their aptitude and artistry enabled them to develop an affirmative vision for African American communities in a deeply segregated state. Decades later, the time has come to celebrate the accomplishments of these talented photographers, who include A. B. Bell, Marion Butts, Rodney Evans, Elnora Frazier, Alonzo Jordan, Benny Joseph, and Eugene Roquemore.Copublished by Aperture and Documentary Arts.

The Achilles Trap masterfully untangles the people, ploys of power and geopolitics that led to America's disastrous war with Iraq and, for the first time, details America's fundamental miscalculations during its ruinous, decades-long relationship with Saddam Hussein. Beginning with Saddam's rise to power in 1979 and the birth of Iraq's secret nuclear weapons programme, Steve Coll traces Saddam's motives through understanding his inner circle. He brings to life the diplomats, scientists, family members and generals who had no choice but to defer to their leader - a leader directly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, as well as the torture or imprisonment of many more. This was a man whose reasoning was impossible to reduce to a simple explanation, and the CIA and successive presidential administrations failed to grasp critical nuances in his paranoia, resentments and inconsistencies - even when the stakes were incredibly high. Using unpublished and underreported sources, interviews with surviving participants, and Saddam's own transcripts and audio files, The Achilles Trap is a remarkable picture of a dictator who was convinced the world was out to get him and acted accordingly. A work of great historical significance, it is the definitive account of how corruptions of power, lies of diplomacy and vanity - on both sides - led to avoidable errors of statecraft: ones that would enact immeasurable human suffering and forever change our political landscape.

Now in its seventh edition, Middle East Patterns continues to be the most comprehensive and authoritative geographical study of the region. Coauthors Colbert C. Held and John Thomas Cummings examine a wide range of geographic, ethnographic, and political patterns of the Middle East, and explore their relationship with, and effect on, the history, economics and human and social development of the region. The book is divided into two parts: The first covers the region from a topical perspective, and the second provides in-depth country-by-country coverage.The seventh edition now includes new chapters on rural life and urban life in Part I, a new chapter on North Africa in Part II, and additional discussions of environmental issues and gender. It has also been updated with the latest data and coverage of events since 2013, including the aftermath of the Arab uprisings, the Libyan and Syrian crises, and the rise of ISIS. Richly illustrated with more than 200 photos and maps and supported by pedagogical elements like key point summaries and a glossary, this acclaimed book remains the best and most accessible resource for students and general readers who seek to understand the spatial dynamics of the Middle East.

Middle East Patterns

Even as the great siege began it was understood by both sides to be an epic - a potentially decisive encounter between an uneasy assortment of soldiers, native Maltese, adventurers and Knights Hospitaller on a strategically crucial but near waterless island and a vast, seemingly all-powerful Ottoman armada. With three quarters of the Mediterranean's coasts already in the hands of the Sultan and his allies, all eyes were now on Malta. This superb new account of the siege emphasises the crucial importance of the siege while at the same time putting it in a far wider context. While since mistakenly recast as a climactic battle between the West and the East, it was also much more interesting and nuanced than that - both sides had many other interests and priorities beyond Malta. Süleyman the Magnificent had conquered and subsumed regions from Hungary to the Persian Gulf; Philip II was building an empire in America and Asia. Drawing on a wide range of eyewitness stories, Marcus Bull gives a vivid sense of the period's technologies, values and assumptions. It was a grim world built on the labour of many thousands of disposable galley-slaves, shockingly brutal forms of warfare and religious absolutism. But it was also a world filled with the most extraordinary new discoveries and ideas. Both these worlds come together in the siege and in this book.

The Great Siege of Malta

A media scholar&nbsp;critically examines how US establishment media ran interference for Israel’s genocide in Gaza, with reporting that called the Flour Massacre “aid-related deaths,” and the Tent Massacre a “tragic mistake.” Over eight months, media coverage aligned with Israeli military narratives, condoning Israeli war crimes and the massacres of Palestinians as the world responded in outrage.
The Complicit Lens&nbsp;scrutinizes US media's portrayal of Israel’s war on Gaza post-October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks, contrasting it with social media reports and international news coverage. It reveals how reporting mystified Israeli bombings, used passive language to deflect blame, and repeated Israeli talking points. The analysis identifies consistent war tropes and atrocity propaganda—beheaded babies and mass rape—used to justify Israeli actions and obscure culpability.&nbsp;Israeli violence was presented as defensive and justified, either by the October 7 attacks, or by claims that Israel was targeting Hamas fighters and commanders not civilians. Later reporting included false claims that war crimes and massacres were mistakes or accidents.
The book&nbsp;documents the targeted killings of journalists and aid workers, underreported in US media, and critiques the editorial censorship that avoided terms like "genocide" and "massacre" for Palestinian deaths. As global protests against the Gaza genocide rose, the book also analyzes the biased media portrayal of these uprisings, particularly those led by young people and Jewish organizations. Examining specific incidents and language, the book exposes how media coverage facilitated the ongoing genocide in Gaza.&nbsp;
