Synopsis

Lost Cultural Artifacts explores the complex world of indigenous cultural heritage, focusing on the theft and repatriation of invaluable artifacts. It delves into the profound significance these objects hold for indigenous communities, representing not just art, but a living link to their history and identity. The book highlights the urgent need to address past wrongs and foster reconciliation through the return of these cultural treasures, arguing that repatriation is essential for preserving cultural heritage and empowering indigenous communities to reclaim their narratives.

 
The book examines the historical and social context surrounding artifact theft, including the legacy of colonialism and evolving museum practices. It meticulously documents case studies of artifact displacement from various regions, illustrating the devastating impact on indigenous communities. Furthermore, it explores the legal and ethical frameworks guiding repatriation efforts, including international conventions and indigenous rights declarations.

 
Structured in four parts, Lost Cultural Artifacts begins with an overview of cultural heritage and its importance. It progresses through case studies, legal frameworks, and culminates in a discussion of practical implications for repatriation. By challenging traditional narratives and prioritizing indigenous voices, this book advocates for a more inclusive and participatory approach to cultural preservation and social justice.

    World War II was the largest and most violent armed conflict in the history of mankind. Highly relevant today, World War II has much to teach us, not only about the profession of arms, but also about military preparedness, global strategy, and combined operations in the coalition war against fascism. This book follows military operations of the US Army in China from 4 July 1942 to 4 May 1945. 
    The China Theater of Operations more resembled the Soviet-German war on the Eastern Front than the war in the Pacific or the war in Western Europe. On the Asian continent, as on the Eastern Front, an Allied partner, China, carried the brunt of the fighting. China had been at war with Japan since 1937 and continued the fight until the Japanese surrender in 1945. The United States advised and supported China's ground war, while basing only a few of its own units in China for operations against Japanese forces in the region and Japan itself. The primary American goal was to keep the Chinese actively in the Allied war camp, thereby tying down Japanese forces that otherwise might be deployed against the Allies fighting in the Pacific. The United States and Nationalist China succeeded in forging a coalition that withstood the tests of time. Indeed, Chinese leader Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, the Allied Supreme Commander, China Theater, accepted, though reluctantly, U.S. Army generals as his chiefs of staff. This command relationship also endured differences in national war aims and cultures, as well as personalities, until the end of the war. The original policies of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Army Chief of Staff George C. Marshall succeeded—China stayed in the war and prevented sizable numbers of Japanese troops from deploying to the Pacific.

    Polyvagal Theory and EMDR are two well-respected theoretical and practical models with immense implications for therapeutic practice. Polyvagal-Informed EMDR outlines a comprehensive approach for integrating Polyvagal Theory into EMDR Therapy. Combined, these models supercharge therapy and the recovery process. 
     
     
     
    The integration of Polyvagal Theory within the eight phases of EMDR Therapy offers the psychotherapist a robust, dynamic, neuro-informed framework for case conceptualization, treatment planning, and client transformation. The approach applies not only to work with trauma and PTSD, but also in the treatment of addictions, anxiety, depression, grief, chronic pain, and adjustment disorders. 
     
     
     
    EMDR therapists will find a method that maintains fidelity to the evidence-based practice of EMDR and aligns with current neuroscience research. Clinical interventions, scripts, and handouts are included for all eight phases of EMDR, as well as case examples and opportunities for experiential practice. 
     
     
     
    This is the first book to treat these topics together: assessing complex material and presenting it in an approachable, engaging manner.

    Colonialism: A Moral Reckoning

    The Sunday Times Bestseller 
    A new assessment of the West’s colonial record 
    In the wake of the dissolution of the Soviet empire in 1989, many believed that we had arrived at the ‘End of History’ – that the global dominance of liberal democracy had been secured forever. 
    Now however, with Russia rattling its sabre on the borders of Europe and China rising to challenge the post-1945 world order, the liberal West faces major threats. 
      
    These threats are not only external. Especially in the Anglosphere, the ‘decolonisation’ movement corrodes the West’s self-confidence by retelling the history of European and American colonial dominance as a litany of racism, exploitation, and massively murderous violence. 
      
    Nigel Biggar tests this indictment, addressing the crucial questions in eight chapters: Was the British Empire driven primarily by greed and the lust to dominate? Should we speak of ‘colonialism and slavery’ in the same breath, as if they were identical? Was the Empire essentially racist? How far was it based on the theft of land? Did it involve genocide? Was it driven fundamentally by the motive of economic exploitation? Was undemocratic colonial government necessarily illegitimate? and, Was the Empire essentially violent, and its violence pervasively racist and terroristic? 
      
    Biggar makes clear that, like any other long-standing state, the British Empire involved elements of injustice, sometimes appalling. On occasions it was culpably incompetent and presided over moments of dreadful tragedy. 
      
    Nevertheless, from the early 1800s the Empire was committed to abolishing the slave trade in the name of a Christian conviction of the basic equality of all human beings. It ended endemic inter-tribal warfare, opened local economies to the opportunities of global trade, moderated the impact of inescapable modernisation, established the rule of law and liberal institutions such as a free press, and spent itself in defeating the murderously racist Nazi and Japanese empires in the Second World War. 
      
    As encyclopaedic in historical breadth as it is penetrating in analytical depth, Colonialism offers a moral inquest into the colonial past, forensically contesting damaging falsehoods and thereby helping to rejuvenate faith in the West’s future. 
    In his latest work, Biggar, the Sunday Times bestselling author, offers a new perspective on the era of colonialism. His bestselling book provides a comprehensive analysis of the ethics and philosophy of colonial rule in Britain and Europe during the Georgian era (1714-1837). 
    For fans of Tod E. Bolsinger (Tempered Resilience), Patrick J. Deneen (The Democratic Soul), Richard B. Hays (The Moral Vision of the New Testament), Michael D. Coogan (The Ten Commandments), and Matthew J. Goodwin (Values, Voice and Virtue).
