God and Technology
This Element brings work from the philosophy of technology into conversation with media, religion, culture studies, and work in digital religion studies to explore examples of how popular media and emerging technologies are increasingly framed and understood through a distinct range of spiritual myths, metaphors, images, and representations of God. Working with three case studies about how internet memes, popular films, and media coverage of public philosophy link ideas about God and technology, this Element draws attention to common conceptions that describe a perceived relationship between religion and technology today. It synthesizes these discussions and categories and presents them in four distinct models, showing a range of ways in which the relationship between God and technology is commonly depicted. The Element seeks to create a platform for scholarly study and critical discourse on technology's religious and spiritual representation in digital and emerging media cultures and contexts through this work.

Featuring Catherine’s trademark blend of immersive biblical retellings, thought-provoking devotionals and warm encouragements to meet God in prayer, Journey With Me Through Christmas will take you beyond the shiny Christmas decorations and lead you to Jesus.
Primacies
A powerful exploration of how literature expresses and transforms our earliest preverbal experiences. Primacies begins with the assertion that our earliest preverbal experiences are accompanied by a primary language—a universal expression of tears, cries, and laughter offered long before we learn our distinctive, ordinary languages. For Michael Fishbane, these “primacies” release the raw feelings of our existential condition and catalyze our most powerful literary expressions of sorrow, joy, and fulfillment. In this book, Fishbane explores how ancient, medieval, and modern literature and poetry express and transform these primal sensations. Building on his theological project begun in Sacred Attunement and Fragile Finitude, Fishbane offers here a radically new lived hermeneutics that seeks to do nothing less than redefine the relationship between experience and language.
Príbehy a príklady na mori nášho života
Ako hovoril pápež František, od detstva cítime hlad po príbehoch, rovnako ako cítime hlad po jedle. Náš život, aj keď si to neuvedomujeme, ovplyvňujú príbehy. A pravdou je, že treba rozprávať, čo bolo, aby sme lepšie pochopili, čo bude. Aj naša knižka chce dosvedčiť, že najvzácnejšia z kníh je náš život, ktory? nám bol zvereny?. V ňom aj za maly?mi vecami môžeme objaviť, že sa skry?vajú veľké, a spoznať múdrosť, že dobry? skutok je lepší ako tisíc slov.
Pokojné čítanie, uvažovanie a tiež modlitbu na cestu po mori života k jeho múdrosti, pravdivosti a šťastiu vyprosuje autor.
Christian Ethics
This Very Short Introduction to Christian ethics introduces the topic by examining its sources and historical basis. D. Stephen Long presents a discussion of the relationship between Christian ethics, modern, and postmodern ethics, and explores practical issues including sex, money, and power. Long recognises the inherent difficulties in bringing together ''Christian'' and ''ethics'' but argues that this is an important task for both the Christian faith and for ethics. Arguing that Christian ethics are not a precise science, but the cultivation of practical wisdom from a range of sources, Long also discusses some of the failures of the Christian tradition, including the crusades, the conquest, slavery, inquistions, and the Galileo affair. Placing them in the context of the theory and practice of ethics and their historical persepctive, he notes the challenges they raise for Christian ethics. He concludes with a discussion of their implications in the modern era, considering how this affects our lives in the present age.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area.

Zápolení o pravdu, naději a lidskou důstojnost
Monografie Ctirada V. Pospíšila přináší podstatné rozšíření předchozích výzkumů v oblasti vztahů katolické teologie k poznatkům přírodních věd v minulém a předminulém století. V první části autor představuje poměr dobové teologie k astronomii a neshledává zde sebemenší konflikt. Druhá část pojednává o postoji teologie k evoluci v oblasti fauny a flóry. I zde se rýsuje značná otevřenost k faktu evoluce, nikoli však k jejímu materialistickému pojetí.Hlavní třecí plochou byla vize evolučního vzniku lidstva, která vyvolávala bouřlivé diskuse nejen v oblasti teologie, ale také mezi představiteli jiných vědních oborů. Autor zachycuje nejen postoje českých teologů, ale také těch, kdo tuto koncepci vzniku lidstva propojovali s křesťanskou teologií stvoření a antropologií již od posledních desetiletí 19. století a na počátku století dvacátého.V českém prostředí doposud zcela nezpracovaná tematika s řadou přínosů i na poli mezinárodního bádání dokládá, že postoj teologů nebyl zdaleka jednoznačně zamítavý a že již od dvacátých let minulého století bylo přijímání vzniku lidského těla evolucí vcelku běžným standardem katolické teologie stvoření zejména v německy mluvících zemích a ve spojitosti s tím i v Čechách a na Moravě.

In All Seasons, For All Reasons
In this second volume of the bestselling resource In All Seasons, For All Reasons, Fr. James Martin provides even more spiritual inspiration from this popular column in Give Us This Day. The Christian longing to share anguish, fear, gratitude, and awe has found expression in many forms of prayer, beginning in Scripture and the practices and words of Jesus. Over the centuries many fruitful approaches to prayer have taken hold, but often there is a certain unease about what is right or what is best. In this book, Fr. Martin eases these concerns with thoughtful, practical encouragement about prayer in all of its forms. Selected from his popular column "Teach Us to Pray” featured monthly in Give Us This Day, Fr. Martin offers practical guidance and invites us to spend time in the presence of God in any form it takes, as prayer is always transformative.

Islam and Pseudoscience
Pseudoscience includes any practice or argument that is presented as scientific but systematically violates criteria that distinguish science, particularly experimental verification. This Element discusses, in critical fashion, different ideas and approaches that combine pseudoscience and Islam. It begins by historically reconstructing the debate on Islam-related pseudoscience developed by Muslim and non-Muslim critics. It then analyzes three areas which these critics have identified as pseudoscience: ? az ?ilmi or the “miraculous scientific content of the Qur'an”; Islamic creationism; ideas and approaches related to hygiene, nutrition, health, and illness. Each area is dissected, identifying the exact reasons that characterize some of its versions as pseudoscientific. After a section discussing other malpractices and erroneous approaches, which do not strictly qualify as pseudoscience but accompany and foster it, the Element ends with the discussion of overarching questions constituting an agenda for future discussions of Islam-related pseudoscience.
Realising the Sacred
How can the Church ensure that its worship, life and mission flow from an encounter with the God of love, mercy and faithfulness? How can its members develop and sustain a loving personal relationship with Jesus? How can it ensure that it places itself in all it does and thinks under the guidance of the Holy Spirit? In other words how can it ‘Realise the Sacred’ both in the sense of ‘coming to know’ the Sacred and of ‘bringing it about’ – by turning to the ways of contemplation? Can these ways bring unity to the rich diversity of the Church and hence hope and love to a fractured world? In 1980 Eric Doyle OFM wrote: ‘The greatest challenge to organised religion in the western world now is whether it can guide individuals along the paths of their own inner depths and show how the riches in those depths can be recognised, accepted and put at the service of all creation and closely related to this, whether it can teach people to commune with God and nature.’ This work seeks to address this challenge by encouraging all Christians to embrace the contemplative practice of silent prayer as the basis for all worship, life and mission of the Church, consciously and with full-hearted intent.

An End to Suffering
'Mishra's book is in the best tradition of Buddhism, both dispassionate and deeply engaged, complicated and simple, erudite and profoundly humane' The New York Times
An accomplished history of the Buddha, An End to Suffering is also a deeply personal story - the story of Pankaj Mishra's search for meaning, for truth and peace in the modern world and, specifically, in a postcolonial, independent India. As he describes his travels to unearth the origins of the Buddha, Mishra offers glimpses into his own quest for enlightenment, from childhood to the September 11 attacks, from family background to friends met and made, from lessons learned to his achievements as a writer. Through this, Mishra reveals the parallels between his time and the Buddha's, between their respective journeys - and that of their country - in search of progress and reconciliation.
'Mishra is one of the most important voices of our generation' Peter Frankopan, author of The Silk Roads
Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.
