One of the first transnational, feminist studies of Canada’s black beauty culture and the role that media, retail, and consumers have played in its development, Beauty in a Box widens our understanding of the politics of black hair. The book analyzes advertisements and articles from media—newspapers, advertisements, television, and other sources—that focus on black communities in Halifax, Montreal, Toronto, and Calgary. The author explains the role local black community media has played in the promotion of African American–owned beauty products; how the segmentation of beauty culture (i.e., the sale of black beauty products on store shelves labelled “ethnic hair care”) occurred in Canada; and how black beauty culture, which was generally seen as a small niche market before the 1970s, entered Canada’s mainstream by way of department stores, drugstores, and big-box retailers. Beauty in a Box uses an interdisciplinary framework, engaging with African American history, critical race and cultural theory, consumer culture theory, media studies, diasporic art history, black feminism, visual culture, film studies, and political economy to explore the history of black beauty culture in both Canada and the United States.

"In the 2006 Madeleva Lecture in Spirituality, Boston College theologian Susan A. Ross offers a feminist theological and ethical exploration of women and beauty "from the ground up." Drawing on women's activities as sources of insight into the nature of beauty, and as inspiration for connecting beauty and goodness, Ross presents a unique, compelling, and deeply touching reflection that will nourish, challenge, and inspire anyone interested in theological aesthetics or women's issues - or, indeed, anyone who cherishes the beauty of God's creation."--BOOK JACKET.

Following numerous courses in scuba diving, Gary Knapp embarked on a twelve-year filming adventure inspired by his promise to God to share with mankind the majestic life He created both under and above the world’s oceans. Through his vivid accounts, Gary takes you on an incredible journey beneath the depths of the seas, to exotic islands, and other countries by the oceans as he travels with marine biologists on trips around the globe. His experiences include riding on a camel in front of the Great Pyramids of Egypt and the Red Sea, plus inspecting underwater volcanos halfway around the world inside the Ring of Fire in Indonesia and the Philippines. Enjoy God’s splendid underwater flower gardens of soft coral in an array of rainbow colors while sailing around Australia and diving in Fiji. Take in the breathtakingly beautiful coral surrounded topside by snow-capped mountains and unique glaciers while diving under the icebergs of Alaska. Throughout his anecdotes, Gary reminds us of the value of God’s creatures to the oceanic ecosystem. God’s Beauty in the Deep shares interesting insights into earth’s fascinating and mysterious stories of shipwrecks, the heart-breaking poverty in various places, the world’s misinformed crusade against sharks, the tragedy of those who’ve never learned to swim in tsunami-plagued areas, plus his one perilous moment underwater!

Nicoll's History, which tells the story of English drama from the reopening of the theatres at the time of the Restoration right through to the end of the Victorian period, was viewed by Notes and Queries (1952) as 'a great work of exploration, a detailed guide to the untrodden acres of our dramatic history, hitherto largely ignored as barren and devoid of interest'.

"Shards of glass can cut and wound or magnify a vision," Terry Tempest Williams tells us. "Mosaic celebrates brokenness and the beauty of being brought together." Ranging from Ravenna, Italy, where she learns the ancient art of mosaic, to the American Southwest, where she observes prairie dogs on the brink of extinction, to a small village in Rwanda where she joins genocide survivors to build a memorial from the rubble of war, Williams searches for meaning and community in an era of physical and spiritual fragmentation. In her compassionate meditation on how nature and humans both collide and connect, Williams affirms a reverence for all life, and constructs a narrative of hopeful acts, taking that which is broken and creating something whole.
