How is prayer possible? How does prayer work? Why is it necessary to ask for God's gifts? Intercessory Prayer attempts to provide answers to questions about the nature of intercessory prayer. Critically examining biblical teaching and modern theological and philosophical thinking, this book shows how intercessory prayer may be seen as one of the means by which God enlists the freely-given cooperation of human persons in the realisation of the divine purpose. Clements-Jewery adopts a process view of the universe to show how intercession both makes certain possibilities greater and strengthens the likelihood of response, so that people who pray may have every confidence that their prayers will make a difference to the world through the God who both influences and is influenced by the creation.
This is the first monograph devoted to divine accommodation in the writings of John Calvin. The text offers careful analysis of the topic along several different lines: it analyzes the character of Calvin’s thinking on accommodation; it reveals the ways in which accommodation expresses itself in his writings; it probes the question of the penetration of accommodation into Calvin’s theology and particularly its implications for his doctrine of God.
This book presents a new model for analyzing Calvin's biblical interpretation, rescuing him from the quagmire of anachronistic interpretations. Concentrating upon Calvin's description of biblical interpretation, the book suggests new insights for hermeneutics, exegesis in the Reformations, and Calvin's ecclesiology.

A l'issue de leur mission, Patrice Anato et Vincent Bru se trouvent confortés dans leur conviction que l’OMC reste indispensable au commerce international et qu’elle ne vit pas tant une crise terminale qu’une transition douloureuse vers une nouvelle forme de régulation.Pour irremplaçable qu’elle soit, l’OMC doit s’adapter aux nouvelles réalités du commerce international et retrouver un rôle central dans la régulation de celui-ci. Le présent rapport définit donc une urgence - sauver le mécanisme de règlement des différends menacé par les États-Unis – et cinq priorités d’action qui, si elles sont mises en œuvre, notamment par le leadership de l’Union européenne, sont de nature à relancer le multilatéralisme commercial sans lequel le bilatéralisme (et le plurilatéralisme) sont largement privés de portée.
