The Bay of Deceptive Mist
Robert "Rab" Munro's only refuge is the sea. Aboard the Dundee clipper Grissel Jaffray, Munro's sailor life of brawls and brothels is a familiar chaos, until a mysterious card inscribed with religious verses and a strange castaway challenge everything he knows. As the Grissel Jaffray sails through storms both literal and spiritual, the card's cryptic changes hint at a divine test. Munro believes that Death awaits him on land. Soon, he faces the Seven Deadly Sins personified among the crew - and in himself. With each choice, the veil between superstition and truth grows thinner. A story of survival and faith, Malcolm Archibald's THE BAY OF DECEPTIVE MIST is an allegorical adventure set on the high seas.
HIV/AIDS, Poverty and Pastoral Care and Counselling
This publication carefully describes the HIV/AIDS pandemic and how it is understood in some African contexts, which hampers prevention initiatives. It also delineates the complex nature of the poverty and HIV/AIDS interplay. To address the situation, a family systems practical ecclesiological theology and approach to HIV/AIDS ministry, and a pastoral counselling approach that derives from and is sensitive to the African context, are proposed.

New Realism in Alice Munro’s Fiction
The book studies Alice Munro’s inheritance of and contribution to realism in fiction. Nobel Prize winner Munro follows the empirical tradition of the Enlightenment and draws on her life as a daughter, wife, mother, and professional writer while composing her fiction to reflect Canadian reality. She infuses her intellectual, moral, and aesthetic vision into her stories. This study analyzes her innovative realism in three respects: Her views on feminism and women’s issues, her firm yet sympathetic moral stance, and her reconstitution of traditional and modernist (post-modernist) methods of portraying character in time and space. Munro’s brand of realism is underpinned by her philosophical perception, her level-headed morality, her dialectical mind, and her versatile narrative style. This monograph, a voice from China, offers a deep philosophical reading of Munro. Students of the Canadian author, graduate or undergraduate, may find this book useful.
