Ritual Servitudes and Christian Social Practices in Ghana
This book explores the kinds of Christian service or diaconia that develop in non-institutionalized practices for supporting survivors of indigenous ritual servitude or Trokosi in Africa. Drawing on empirical research from Ghana, it examines the possibilities of freedom, equality, and dignity for liberated Trokosi and the manner in which these women’s experiences constitute a repudiation of dominant patriarchal family systems. With close attention to the work of indigenous parachurches – which function outside of institutionalized churches – in challenging the contemporary practice of ritual slavery and offering its survivors a lived space in which they need not remain “hidden” as they seek restoration and integration into wider society, Ritual Servitudes and Christian Social Practices in Ghana will appeal to scholars of sociology, theology, and religion with interests in gender, contemporary ministries and African religion.
Ghana's New Christianity
In sub-Saharan Africa over the last two decades there has been an explosion of Christianity. This book sets out to identify its particular character, focusing on a particular place: Greater Accra, the capital of Ghana. Paul Gifford examines a wide range of Accra's new churches, giving priority to mega-churches.

Gifford argues that this Christianity is not otherworldly: its emphasis is on success, achievement, wealth here and now. Yet within this general orientation there is diversity. At one end of the spectrum are churches that, bui...

Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation: Mobile Medical Simulation
This book provides information to support the new and growing field of medical simulation training using mobile simulation vehicles. These mobile training programs bring vehicles equipped with spaces to simulate patient care areas, task trainers, and mannequins directly to the medical provider. This concise reference introduces programs that bring necessary training to providers and offers step by step guidance on how to establish and run a mobile medical simulation program. Divided into two main sections, the first analyzes the methods and techniques to implement a program, including marketing, finances, and program evaluation. The second section then delves into greater detail regarding the actual teaching and training, including chapters on educational methodology, scenario design, and how to prepare for a simulation session. Part of the groundbreaking Comprehensive Healthcare Simulation Series, Mobile Medical Simulation is an ideal guide for administrators and managers who design and implement mobile simulation training programs, as well as educators and trainers working in the field.
