Summary : Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Hesse sisters were daughters of Princess Alice, and they all married well. The youngest, Alix, was the most beautiful and was married to the Duke of Hesse. Darmstadt, the capital of Hesse, was considered the dullest town in Germany. #2 Princess Alice of Hesse was married to the Duke of Teck in 1858. She had been raised in a liberal environment, but she was soon disappointed by the conservative atmosphere at the Hessian court. She began philanthropic activities, including regular hospital visiting and the promotion of women’s health. #3 The house of Hesse was far from wealthy, and Alice knew the pinch of poverty. But she created a warm home-from-home for her family, furnished with chintz fabrics and unremarkable pieces sent from England. She did not spoil her children, and allowed them only a shilling a week pocket money until their confirmation. #4 The family’s happiness at Darmstadt was over when Alice’s second son Frittie, at the age of two, showed the first signs of haemophilia in 1872. The loss of one of her pretty pair of boys opened up a four-year gap between the only other son, Ernie, and his next sibling, Alix.

Summary : Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In 1916, Arno Dosch-Fleurot, a seasoned journalist working for a popular US daily, had arrived in Petrograd fresh from a gruelling stint covering the Battle of Verdun. He was excited to be in Russia, but he had preconceived ideas about Russia that were based on reading Dostoievsky’s Crime and Punishment, Tolstoy’s Resurrection, and George Kennon’s Darkest Siberia. #2 There were many foreign journalists in Petrograd just before the revolution. The reports of these reporters were being syndicated in the West, and there was an established coterie of other, mainly British, reporters in the city. #3 The British colony in Petrograd was doing relief work with the thousands of refugees pouring into the city. #4 The sight of so many pitiful children with insufficient clothing and often no shoes had galvanized a surge of expatriate philanthropic work. The British embassy was used to sort donated clothes and shoes for the refugees.

Summary : Interest in theories of religion has never been greater. Scholars debate single theoretical approaches in different scholarly journals, while the ‘new atheists’ such as Richard Dawkins and Daniel Dennett criticize the whole idea of religion. For everyone eager to understand the current state of the field, Contemporary Theories of Religion surveys the neglected landscape in its totality. Michael Stausberg brings together leading scholars of the field to review and discuss seventeen contemporary theories of religion. As well as scholars of religion, it features anthropologists, archaeologists, classicists, evolutionary biologists, philosophers and sociologists. Each chapter provides students with background information on the theoretician, a presentation of the theory’s basic principles, an analysis of basic assumptions, and a review of previous critiques. Concluding with a section entitled 'Back and Forth', Stausberg compares the different theories and points to further avenues of discussion for the future.
