  Carl R. Trueman and Other Christian Evangelical Scholars Examine the Life and Work of Renowned Catholic, Social Conservative Thinker Robert P. George
  Robert P. George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton University, is one of the most influential conservative intellectuals of his generation. Among many honors and accolades, George received the US Presidential Citizens Medal from President George W. Bush and served as chairman of the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF). Though a Catholic himself, George's influence has transcended traditional religious categories to shape evangelical discourse on politics, ethics, and political philosophy throughout his career. 
  In this thorough introduction and careful analysis of George's work for Protestant audiences, editor Andrew T. Walker gathers essays from high profile evangelical writers and academics—including Carl R. Trueman, Hunter Baker, Jennifer Marshall Patterson, and Scott Klusendorf—to explore subjects such as faith and reason, George's New Natural Law theory, and how to collaborate across ideological lines. Social Conservatism for the Common Good helps Christian evangelicals understand George's philosophy and apply it to their own cultural engagement and public witness.
  
  - Biography of Influential Conservative Scholar Robert P. George: Explores the breadth of his political philosophy and activism, as well as his relevance to the evangelical community
  - Engaging Political Analysis from a Biblical Perspective: With a foreword by US Senator Ben Sasse, this book covers important cultural and academic topics including human rights, social and public ethics, and pro-life issues
  - Ideal Resource for Evangelical Scholars and Thinkers: Written for pastors, students, and those interested in politics, this robust book appeals to readers of Carl R. Trueman's The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self

  The Great Famine of 1896-1897 -...

  The Great Famine of 1896-1897 was one of the most devastating periods of hunger and suffering in colonial India. Spanning across large regions, particularly in the Deccan Plateau, this famine marked a tragic chapter in the history of British colonial rule. It resulted in the death of hundreds of thousands of people, although the exact number remains disputed due to the limited data available from that era. 
  This famine was not an isolated event but part of a larger pattern of food scarcity issues that India faced under British colonial governance. However, the 1896-1897 famine stood out due to the scale of its impact, the widespread malnutrition it caused, and the delayed and ineffective relief efforts by the British authorities. The failure to provide adequate assistance and the harsh economic policies implemented during this period are considered by many as contributing factors to the famine’s severity. 
  The environmental conditions in India played a significant role in the famine. A series of poor monsoons coupled with crop failures resulted in a severe food shortage. However, the effects of the famine were compounded by British policies that prioritized export of food grains from India to feed the empire’s industrial needs. This practice exacerbated food scarcity in the affected regions, leaving local populations without the resources they needed to survive.
