Kinship and Species in the Bible and Rabbinic Literature

Critical Concepts in Religious Studies

There is a substantial and growing literature on both theories and methods in the study of religion. This new four-volume collection will showcase the very best cutting-edge research and canonical literature.

Methods and Theories in the Study of Religion

The book seeks to move forward debates on postsecularity as conceived by Habermas et.al. which recognise that, contrary to secular expectations, religion persists. The study is unique in exploring the irruptions (external breakthroughs) that unsettle secularisation and which give rise to postsecularisation. This shift has rendered sociology vulnerable to some unexpected theological considerations, some of which are explored in the study. Topics considered in the study, which make it accessible, include: dilemmas of naming; emotions and the visual; martyrdom and theodicy. Each of these has irruptive properties that force sociology to reconsider its theological debts. Postsecularity has become a fashionable term, but one which needs to be fleshed out and this study grasps a moment of opportunity to do so, which renders it original.

The essential illustrated compendium of sauropod dinosaurs, from the towering Brachiosaurus to small, long-necked herbivoresThe Princeton Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs: Sauropods brings together every species of long-necked dinosaur known to have roamed the prehistoric world, with a dedicated entry for each species describing its key characteristics, taxonomic classification, location, and known remains along with a concise history of its discovery. Each species is beautifully brought to life with vivid illustrations and is supported by meticulously detailed diagrams of all known fossils. These visual aids enable readers to explore how scientists reconstruct these incredible creatures from fossilized remains. Whether you're curious about Brachiosaurus, Titanosaurus, or the multitude of less familiar sauropod species, this encyclopedia covers them all. The Princeton Encyclopedia of Dinosaurs is a comprehensive three-volume resource for anyone who is fascinated by dinosaurs. Packed with engaging dino facts and original, full-color reconstructions, drawings, and graphics, this one-of-a-kind encyclopedia strikes a perfect balance between depth and accessibility-detailed enough to captivate professionals yet clear and exciting enough for beginners eager to dive into the amazing lost world of the dinosaurs. The three volumes, which are available individually or as a set, are Theropods, Sauropods, and Ornithischians. Organized for easy reference, these books are perfect for casual browsing or in-depth study. Together, this encyclopedia invites dinosaur lovers of all ages to walk among the wonderous beasts of the Mesozoic era.

Religion, Culture and Society Series

One of the most exciting developments in the study of religion during recent years is the application of cognitive theory. Many people are inspired by the thought that understanding human cognition can somehow help us to understand religion. Others are more sceptical. What can neurophysiology possibly tell us about social and cultural phenomena? How do we get from the neurone to the Qu'ran? This book will enlighten those who know little about cognitive theory, introducing them to the background and subject areas where cognitive approaches can be useful. Armin Geertz shows that cognitive approaches are broader and allow for many more possibilities than pioneers in the cognitive study of religion have touched upon in the past. Using a minimum of neuro-jargon and presenting clear explanations of terms where necessary, this book offers an informative guide to cognitive theory to develop plausible interpretations and explanations of religious thought and behaviour. Armin Geertz explains how cognitive theory offers a toolbox to help us to understand the texts, behaviours, and attitudes we are confronted with in the study of religion.

An Introduction

Religion and Cognition

Routledge Studies in Evangelicalism

This book is the first major study of the constellation of evangelists, mission halls, tent revivals, children's clubs, Bible institutes, musicians, advertising strategies, publishing enterprises, and philanthropic activity that constituted a vibrant substratum of British Evangelical Christianity between the mid-nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries. This populist Protestant subculture has been well-charted in North America but virtually ignored in Britain. This lacuna is part due to a common assumption that secularization? corroded traditional religious communities during this era. By contrast, this book argues that this panoply of pan-denominational affinities and endeavours in fact represented an adaptation of the British Evangelical Protestant tradition to the age of mass democracy. In exploring the beliefs, worship and spirituality, gender roles, mission networks, revival events, material culture, and social protocols and taboos of popular Evangelicalism, the book presents a religious movement well-attuned to an age of popular politics, metropolitan culture, demotic advertising, and mass entertainment.

Gender, Theology and Spirituality

A Theology of Incarnation from Within Dis-Abled Minds is an auto-ethnographic journey into a question that is both deeply personal and theo-therapeutic. Utilising the author's own experiences, it explores whether there can be an applied theology, rooted in the living 'tradition' of feminist and queer theology, that begins to question classical definitions of the 'sane' and 'insane'. This book offers a transgressive theology of healing and wellbeing based on radical feminist Christological understanding. Therefore, it will be of keen interest to scholars of Religion and Theology, as well as those working in Psychiatry, Mental Health and Disability Studies.

Too frequently, theology has addressed issues of mental health from a largely pastoral and detached observational perspective. This book asks whether the model of an embodied and experiential theology of disability, championed by theologians such as Nancy Eiesland, can more powerfully and insightfully apply to those who are described as suffering from severe and enduring mental health problems.A Theology of Incarnation from Within Dis-Abled Minds is an auto-ethnographic journey into a question that is both deeply personal and theo-therapeutic. Utilising the author’s own experiences, it explores whether there can be an applied theology, rooted in the living ‘tradition’ of feminist and queer theology, that begins to question classical definitions of the ‘sane’ and ‘insane’. Can certain contemporary theological models of chaos, in creation and cosmology, offer a valorised place for those whose psycho-chaos is usually deemed to be of little value in western capitalist economies, except as the recipients of ‘professional compassion’? This book offers a transgressive theology of healing and wellbeing based on radical feminist Christological understanding which speaks as much of anger, chaos, and resistance as it does of peace, healing or reconciliation. Therefore, it will be of keen interest to scholars of Religion and Theology, as well as those working in Psychiatry, Mental Health and Disability Studies.

A Theology of Incarnation from Within Dis-Abled Minds

The Case for a Misunderstood Virtue

Being Reasonable

Climate change-possibly the most pressing and difficult problem facing life on earth today-raises a series of questions that are fundamentally philosophical in nature. Some are: --Is skeptcism about climate change warranted? --Why does scientific consensus about global warming matter? --Who should pay-those who are causing the most damage or those who will bear the greatest burden-to mitigate the effects of climate change? Scientists and policy makers who grapple with these questions need the insights and contexts a philosophical analysis offers. And students and researchers in philosophy need to better know the scientific literature and political issues before offering ethical and philosophical commentary. With formal graduate training in the study of atmospheric science, a Ph.D. in philosophy, and a publication and teaching record that bridges the two areas, Wendy Parker adroitly addresses these and similar questions in, Understanding Climate Change: Science, Philosophy, and Policy. The book brings together a body of scattered research on these issues, but also breaks new ground, providing for a wide range of students and researchers a firmer footing on which to understand fully the scientific and policy issues related to climate change. The book is the first of its kind: a synoptic and coherent account-written for students and scholars in the humanities and the sciences--of the most salient philosophical issues related to our changing global climate.
