Conversion Is A Complex And Emotionally Charged Issue. Fundamentalists Exploit It, Liberals Complicate It, Many Do Not Comprehend What The Fuss Is About, And Others Shy Away From Getting Involved. In Today S Pluri-Religious Society, Change Of Faith Can Precipitate Religious Antagonism--Or It Can Facilitate Social Diversity And Tolerance. While Religious Commitment Is Essentially A Matter Of Personal Conscience And Choice, It Inevitably Impacts Other Levels Of Individual And Social Life. Author Rudolf C. Heredia Is A Jesuit Sociologist Who, With His Long Experience Of Working With Marginalized Communities, Shows How Mass Conversions Have Alienated People From Their Past Traditions And Lived Beliefs. Challenging The Traditional Orthodoxies Which Promote Or Oppose Religious Conversions, The Author Sees No Religious Merit In Political Posturing Or Conversion For Socio-Economic Gain. Instead, To Defuse Tensions, He Advocates Rethinking Religious Conversion In India With A Determined Religious Disarmament, Discarding Aggression. Here Is A Provocative Writer Who, Remaining Anchored Firmly In His Faith, Challenges Us To Seek A Common Ground For Tolerance And Dialogue, Premised On A Constructive Interaction With Other Faith Traditions.

Democracy does not deliver on the things we have assumed are its natural outcomes. This, coupled with a growing sense of malaise in both new and established democracies forms the basis to the assertion made by some, that these are not democracies at all. Through considerable, impressive empirical analysis of a variety of voting methods, across twenty different nations, Roslyn Fuller presents the data that makes this contention indisputable. Proving that the party which forms the government rarely receives the majority of the popular vote, that electoral systems regularly produce manufactured majorities and that the better funded side invariably wins such contests in both elections and referenda, Fuller's findings challenge the most fundamental elements of both national politics and broader society. Beast and Gods argues for a return to democracy as perceived by the ancient Athenians. Boldly arguing for the necessity of the Aristotelian assumption that citizens are agents whose wishes and aims can be attained through participation in politics, and through an examination of what “goods” are provided by democracy, Fuller offers a powerful challenge to the contemporary liberal view that there are no "goods" in politics, only individual citizens seeking to fulfil their particular interests.

Yahweh is the name God chose for Himself; through this sacred name He reveals who He is and what He will do for His people. No other name is as significant as Yahweh, the name God revealed to Moses at the burning bush and which means "I AM WHO I AM." Yet, many centuries ago this name was changed to Jehovah, a hybrid word that has no meaning. English translations also have substituted LORD for Yahweh more than 6,800 times in the Old Testament. Who changed God's name and why? The word God chose for His name is one that reveals who He is as well as what He wants to mean to us. He is the ever present One who takes the initiative in making Himself known to His people. He promises to be whatever they need in order to become all He wants them to be. Dr. Jim Harvey examines the original meaning and significance of God's name, and provides insight into the way the name Jesus relates to Yahweh. He explains how discovering the meaning of God's name will enrich our worship of God, as well as encourage us to claim His provisions for all our needs.

In her study of medieval Chinese lay practices and beliefs, Valerie Hansen argues that social and economic developments underlay religious changes in the Southern Song. Unfamiliar with the contents of Buddhist and Daoist texts, the common people hired the practitioner or prayed to the god they thought could cure the ill or bring rain. As the economy rapidly developed, the gods, like the people who worshiped them, diversified: their realm of influence expanded as some gods began to deal on the national grain market and others advised their followers on business transactions. In order to trace this evolution, the author draws information from temple inscriptions, literary notes, the administrative law code, and local histories. By contrasting differing rates of religious change in the lowland and highland regions of the lower Yangzi valley, Hansen suggests that the commercial and social developments were far less uniform than previously thought. In 1100, nearly all people in South China worshiped gods who had been local residents prior to their deaths. The increasing mobility of cultivators in the lowland, rice-growing regions resulted in the adoption of gods from other places. Cults in the isolated mountain areas showed considerably less change.

What would the world of business be like if it were run by the Greek gods of yore? Would Apollo be the right man at the helm of Acme Widget? What sweeping changes would Athena make if she controlled an ad agency? While this might merely seem like an entertaining concept, it also happens to be an extremely valuable framework for understanding management styles and the corporate cultures associated with them. In The Gods of Management, best-selling author Charles Handy uses four Greek gods to illustrate for managers the basic approaches they can use in their own businesses. When power radiates throughout the company from a top boss, that would be an example of a Zeus or "club" organization, one that investment banks and brokerage firms often adopt for their corporate climates. An Apollo "role" culture, on the other hand, results in a stable bureaucracy, such as a life insurance company or a firm with a long history of success with a single product. The Athena "task" environment emphasizes talent, youth, and team problem-solving, as we'd find in ad agencies and consultancies. And lastly, a Dionysius "existential" design exists to let individuals achieve their purposes, as in a university or group medical practice. In this thought-provoking volume, Charles Handy shows managers how to be aware of the cultural choices they can make to create a more productive and satisfying workplace.
