Sinopse

Saharan Networks explores the vital role of the Sahara Desert as a conduit for trade, cultural exchange, and globalization in world history. Challenging the perception of Africa as isolated, the book reveals intricate networks connecting sub-Saharan Africa to the Mediterranean, the Middle East, and beyond. These Saharan trade networks facilitated the exchange of commodities like gold and salt, impacting societies and enabling the rise of empires such as Ghana, Mali, and Songhai. The book examines the roles of Berber traders, Arab merchants, and African intermediaries, while investigating the social, religious, and political dimensions of this economic history. It progresses from establishing the geographical context to exploring key commodities, influential groups, and the eventual decline of these networks due to European maritime expansion. By utilizing diverse sources, including archaeological findings and historical chronicles, Saharan Networks emphasizes the agency of African actors in shaping trans-Saharan trade, offering a nuanced perspective on a crucial aspect of world history.

    The Japanese experience of war from the late-nineteenth to the mid-twentieth century presents a stunning example of the meteoric rise and shattering fall of a great power. As Japan modernized and became the one non-European great power, its leaders concluded that an empire on the Asian mainland required the containment of Russia. Japan won the First Sino-Japanese War (1894–5) and the Russo-Japanese War (1904–5) but became overextended in the Second Sino-Japanese War (1931–45), which escalated, with profound consequences, into World War II. A combination of incomplete institution building, an increasingly lethal international environment, a skewed balance between civil and military authority, and a misunderstanding of geopolitics explains these divergent outcomes. This analytical survey examines themes including the development of Japanese institutions, diversity of opinion within the government, domestic politics, Japanese foreign policy, and China's anti-Japanese responses. It is an essential guide for those interested in history, politics, and international relations.

    In a world that often misunderstands or underestimates the capabilities and worth of individuals with disabilities, Accompanying Disability offers a compassionate, faithful model for nurturing relationships with loved ones with disabilities based on mutual respect, dignity, and affection, rather than patronizing attitudes or pity. 
     
     
     
    Author Topher Endress brings a wealth of insight and experience as a pastor and theologian whose father became a quadriplegic after a hiking accident. Through his personal narrative, his father's writings, and Bible-based reflections, Endress shows how the way we think about disability can have a profound impact on our ability not just to provide care or engage respectfully but to truly accompany loved ones with disabilities along our mutual journey of life. 
     
     
     
    This book models a paradigm shift in how society perceives and interacts with individuals with disabilities. It celebrates diversity, resilience, and the richness of human experience, inviting listeners to reflect on God's work in our world and embrace the beauty of relationships founded on equality, understanding, and love. Whether you're a family member, friend, caregiver, or ally, Accompanying Disability offers invaluable insights and guidance for nurturing meaningful, respectful, and fulfilling relationships with loved ones with disabilities.

    A concise, accessible overview of pragmatism, the most influential school of American philosophical thought. 
     
     
     
    Pragmatism, America's homegrown philosophy, has been a major intellectual movement for over a century. Unlike its rivals, it reaches well beyond the confines of philosophy into concerns and disciplines as diverse as religion, politics, science, and culture. In this concise, engagingly written overview, John R. Shook describes pragmatism's origins, concepts, and continuing global relevance and appeal. With attention to the movement's original thinkers—Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, John Dewey, and George Herbert Mead—as well as its contemporary proponents, he explains how pragmatism thinks about what is real, what can be known, and what minds are doing. And because of pragmatism's far-reaching impact, Shook shows how its views on reality, truth, knowledge, and cognition coordinate with its approaches to agency, sociality, human nature, and personhood.
