Veins of Devotion details recent collaborations between guru-led devotional movements and public health campaigns to encourage voluntary blood donation in northern India. Focusing primarily on Delhi, Jacob Copeman carefully situates the practice within the context of religious gift-giving, sacrifice, caste, kinship, and nationalism. The book analyzes the operations of several high-profile religious orders that organize large-scale public blood-giving events and argues that blood donation has become a site not only of frenetic competition between different devotional movements, but also of intense spiritual creativity.

Questions of the social implications of biotechnology and biological exchange (the extraction of human tissues such as blood, skin and organs for testing, storage and/or distribution for therapeutic or research purposes) have recently been brought strongly to the analytical fore across the social sciences. This book focuses on the variegated biopolitical milieus of this kind of exchange specifically in South Asia. It ranges widely – theoretically, thematically, and regionally – in examining South Asian variants of and engagements with diverse modes of biological exchange: caste, gender, and blood donation in Pakistan, DNA testing amongst a former Untouchable community in south India and amongst diasporic Indians in Houston, Texas, body (cadaveric) donation in India, the use of fake blood in Bangladeshi cinema, the mobilisation of blood, hearts, and ketones to protest the Indian government’s failure to provide redress or care to victims of the 1984 Bhopal industrial disaster, and blood-based political portraits and petitions in south India. In considering this complex of issues, this book extends the parameters of classic accounts of the role of substance transactions in the production of South Asian personhood into investigations of the biopolitics and economies of substance that shape people and communities in diverse parts of the subcontinent, describing findings that illuminate how local responses to the implementation of various kinds of tissue economy both reflect and also transform socio-cultural values in South Asia. This book was published as a special issue of Contemporary South Asia.

Imagine starting your day with a dose of hope and joy - how could living with less stress and anxiety impact your life? These 21 daily joy-inducing devotions will help you develop a new habit of hope! This uplifting devotional book is the perfect coffee companion for your personal morning devotions or to use for small group discussions in your home...or in a coffee shop if you don't want to clean your house. It also would be wonderful for your church women's book group to do on-line together! In this Daily Devotional Journal you will: - Laugh...a funny, painfully true story starts each day off with a bit of laughter which is "a good medicine" and burns calories, enough said. - Learn...each daily devotion time includes Scripture and a practical application to the issues you face today. - Live...the "Reflect and Journal" portion at the end of each chapter includes a question or writing/drawing prompt to help you connect the day's lesson to your life. Bonuses: ...A 10-day Amish Friendship Bread Recipe, chapter 3 ...Photo of a puppet-producing business prototype, chapter 17 ...Pictures of creepy costumes, including a Bank robber, chapter 4, a Tin man, chapter 12 and a Mute Hunchback, chapter 21 Author Dorie Mclemore is a licensed minister / comedian / story-teller / joy-bringer / coffee-lover who believes that caffeine is keeping her alive, popcorn should have its own food group, dry-cleaning saves marriages and that true joy comes from knowing we are worthy of God's love in the middle of all our imperfections. She has been speaking and performing comedy across the country and around the world since 2006. She also travels with comedian Michael Jr., Sisters United, and in the carpool line for two different schools. She has written countless Family Bestsellers like: Wednesday Grocery List, Vacation Itinerary Summer 2018, and Aunt Susie's 64th Birthday Card, among others. Note from the author: Writing a devotional book about hope and joy can be tricky because it has the connotation that I am the most hopeful and joyful person on the planet...that flowers spring up where I step and some type of musical montage starts when I enter the room. This is not the case. In fact, if you happen to see me in my car in a bit of traffic one day, I hope my face shows the hope and joy in my heart rather than any other emotion or the hormones running through my veins. I wrote this devotional book because I am on my own joy journey. I am learning that choosing hope and joy in the middle of chaos and difficult circumstances is not some form of unrealistic optimism -- there is actual power in the act of living hopeful. There is joy in knowing we are deeply loved by God in the middle of our imperfections. It's something about which I continue to learn and this devotional book contains a splattering of lessons God has taught me through some of my own "Dorie stories" that I pray will be helpful to those wanting more hope and joy in their lives! Add this daily devotional journal to your cart and start your day on a hopeful note!

In this ground-breaking account of the political economy and cultural meaning of blood in contemporary India, Jacob Copeman and Dwaipayan Banerjee examine how the giving and receiving of blood has shaped social and political life. Hematologies traces how the substance congeals political ideologies, biomedical rationalities, and activist practices. Using examples from anti-colonial appeals to blood sacrifice as a political philosophy to contemporary portraits of political leaders drawn with blood, from the use of the substance by Bhopali children as a material of activism to biomedical anxieties and aporias about the excess and lack of donation, Hematologies broaches how political life in India has been shaped through the use of blood and through contestations about blood. As such, the authors offer new entryways into thinking about politics and economy through a "bloodscape of difference": different sovereignties; different proportionalities; and different temporalities. These entryways allow the authors to explore the relation between blood's utopic flows and political clottings as it moves through time and space, conjuring new kinds of social collectivities while reanimating older forms, and always in a reflexive relation to norms that guide its proper flow.

WINNER OF THE DAYTON LITERARY PEACE PRIZE 2017 Reina Castillo's beloved brother is serving a death sentence for a crime that shocked the community - a crime for which Reina secretly blames herself. When she is at last released from her seven-year prison vigil, Reina moves to a sleepy town in the Florida Keys seeking anonymity. There, she meets Nesto, a recently exiled Cuban awaiting with hope the arrival of the children he left behind in Havana. Through Nesto's love of the sea and capacity for faith, Reina comes to understand her own connections to the life-giving and destructive forces of the ocean that surrounds her as well as its role in her family's troubled history. Set in the vibrant coastal and Caribbean communities of Miami; the Florida Keys; Havana, Cuba; and Cartagena, Colombia, The Veins of the Ocean is a wrenching exploration of what happens when life tests the limits of compassion, and a stunning and unforgettable portrait of fractured lives finding solace in the beauty and power of the natural world, and in one another.
