About this book

In The Universe Next Door, the President of Unistat is Furbish Lousewart V; in that universe, a terrorist organization known as Purity of Essence (named after General Ripper's obsession in the film Dr. Strangelove) threatens to detonate nuclear devices in major cities all over Unistat. The [Schrödinger's Cat Trilogy][1] is a trilogy of novels by American writer Robert Anton Wilson consisting of [The Universe Next Door][2], [The Trick Top Hat][3], and [The Homing Pigeons][4], each illustrating a different interpretation of quantum physics. Wilson is also co-author of The Illuminatus! Trilogy, and Schrödinger's Cat is a sequel of sorts, re-using several of the same characters and carrying on many of the themes of the earlier work.

Cover of Knowing our neighbour

Knowing our neighbour

Albert Sundararaj Walters

In a world where religion is either frozen cold or exploding into flames, Christians and Muslims of good will must be ready to stand side by side. But mutual recognition must be hard-headed and sober, based on respect that grows out of firm understanding of the other's otherness: hence the need for this book. Here, Albert Walters takes Christians through fourteen centuries of Islamic history, the fundamentals of Muslim belief and practice, and the vivid diversity that makes up the Islamic world. He opens windows to show significant differences between Islam and Christianity, and helps the interested reader to make the first step of understanding and appreciation. Building on this, he deftly examines the history of Islam in his country Malaysia, and then discusses the difficulties between Christians and Muslim with realism and due concern for all the misapprehensions and misgivings that haunt moves to come closer together. At the end, he provides hints of how closeness can be attempted through systematic cooperation and the pre-requirement of respect and esteem for what is different. This book deserves to be read carefully by Christians who are concerned about impaired interfaith relationships, and to be studied by those who try to see God in the other, and also by those who do not.

Cover of Reproducing gender?

Reproducing gender?

Madeleine Arnot

"Reproducing Gender? charts the development of a theory of gender relations, built up over the last twenty years. This theory has been highly influential in establishing the importance of sociology of women's education for the study of society. It demonstrates the power of feminist educational theory and research and its role in creating new political and academic agendas." "Taking gender codes as a key concept, this book explores gender relationships at all levels of schooling. It brings together political, social and cultural theories to understand continuity and change in gender and education." "This book will be essential reading for students and academics in the areas of gender studies, women's studies, educational policy, sociology and history of education."--Jacket.
