    We live in a world of oppositional relationships and increasing in-group/out-group divisions. Christian sociologist Matthew Vos explains how the problem of the stranger lies at the root of many problems humanity faces, such as racism, sexism, and nationalism. He applies classic sociological theory on "the stranger" to matters of faith and social justice, showing that an identity in Christ frees us to love strangers as neighbors and friends. The book also includes two guest chapters, one on intersex persons and the church and one on stranger-making in the "correctional" system.

    Convictions is a spellbinding story from the front lines of the fight against crime. Most Americans know little about the work of assistant United States attorneys, the federal prosecutors who possess sweeping authority to investigate and prosecute the nation's most dangerous criminals. John Kroger pursued high-profile cases against Mafia killers, drug kingpins, and Enron executives. Starting from his time as a green recruit and ending at the peak of his career, he steers us through the complexities of life as a prosecutor, where the battle in the courtroom is only the culmination of long and intricate investigative work. He reveals how to flip a perp, how to conduct a cross, how to work an informant, how to placate a hostile judge. Kroger relates it all with a novelist's eye for detail and a powerful sense of the ethical conflicts he faces. Often dissatisfied with the system, he explains why our law enforcement policies frequently fail in critical areas like drug enforcement and white-collar crime. He proposes new ways in which we can fight crime more effectively, empowering citizens to pressure their lawmakers to adopt more productive policies. This is an unflinching portrait of a crucial but little-understood part of our justice system, and Kroger is an eloquent guide.

    Few works in literary history have shaped the cultural and spiritual imagination of the Western world as profoundly as *The Divine Comedy*. Written in the early 14th century by the Florentine poet Dante Alighieri, this epic journey through Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise is more than just a tale of the afterlife—it is a meditation on justice, redemption, and the human soul’s search for divine truth. As both a poet and a visionary, Dante crafted a work that bridges medieval theology, classical influences, and deeply personal reflections, creating a narrative that continues to resonate with readers across centuries.  
      
    To fully appreciate *The Divine Comedy*, it is essential to understand the world that shaped Dante and the literary traditions that influenced him. Born in 1265, Dante lived in a politically tumultuous Italy, marked by factional strife between the Guelphs and Ghibellines, conflicts that would deeply impact his life and writing. Exiled from his native Florence, he poured his exile’s anguish and his longing for justice into the verses of *The Divine Comedy*, transforming personal suffering into an allegorical masterpiece. His work reflects not only his political frustrations but also his devotion to philosophy, theology, and the poetic traditions of Virgil and the classical world.  
      
    At its core, *The Divine Comedy* is an allegory of the soul’s journey toward God. Each of its three realms—*Inferno*, *Purgatorio*, and *Paradiso*—represents stages of moral and spiritual transformation. *Inferno* exposes the consequences of sin, *Purgatorio* explores the trials of purification, and *Paradiso* reveals the ultimate joy of divine enlightenment. This structure serves not only as a vivid depiction of the afterlife but also as a guide for readers seeking moral and spiritual understanding in their own lives.
