Using phenomenology to uncover the implicit logic in personal love, sexual love, and hatred, Peter Hadreas provides new insights into the uniqueness of the beloved and offers fresh explanations for some of the worst outbreaks of violence and hatred in modern times. Topics discussed include the value and subjectivity of personal love, nudity and the temporality of sexual love, the connection between personal, sexual love, and the incest taboo, the development of group-focused hatred from individual focused hatred, and prejudicial discrimination. The work encompasses analysis of philosophers and writers from ancient times through to the present day and examines such episodes as the Oklahoma City Federal Building bombing and the Columbine High School massacre.
Football has evolved enormously since Nagendra Prasad kicked a ball 150 years ago. Unlike any other sport, football has left a socio-cultural-economic influence throughout our quest for independence and onto the journey of becoming the world's largest democracy. From Mohun Bagan's 1911 IFA Shield win igniting a nationalist movement to the Indian footballing family's newest child, Bengaluru FC envisaged in a corporate suit, A Game of Two Halves gives its readers a chance to turn back the clock and revisit the glorious days of 11 clubs that made Indian club football invaluable.
ÊEmpires, Kingdoms, nation states and even minorities (ethnic or otherwise) enjoy varying degrees of attention in the history of mankind. The same is not always true of the categories of people we refer to as "refugees" or "immigrants". Yet, every war, revolution or upheaval produces huge numbers of them. Among other things, From Herat to Tehran tries to redress this imbalance. It is more than a novel.

Adventure and romance in Pakistan among the Pathan people. This riveting memoir, a travelogue extraordinaire, starts with visits to Hira Mandi, the infamous red-light district in the old city of Lahore, to evening prayers in the Shrine of Data Baba and the majestic Badshahi Mosque. It mainly deals with the author's relationship with a Pathan courtesan and her family, and a five month horse expedition though the Hindu Kush, Karakoram, and Himalayan Mountains from Peshawar to Chitral, Kalash (Kafiristan), Gilgit, Kaghan Valley, and Kashmir. Finally, the relationship causes him to be kidnaped to Bajaur (Tribal Territory), where he finds himself ten miles off the paved road in a mud fort, near the Afghan border, tied to a cot with her. It describes life in the Northwest Frontier Province of Pakistan, and life within Pathan society, with great passionate intimacy. There are some interesting diversions in Dubai (staying with Waziri taxi drivers) and in Thailand. Lavishly illustrated with over 100 stunning photos.
First published in 1980, this groundbreaking Routledge Revival is a reissue of an original and authentic anthropological account of Pukhtun society by Professor Akbar Ahmed. Combining extensive fieldwork data collected among the Mohmand tribe in the Northwest Frontier Province of Pakistan with historical and literary sources, Professor Ahmed’s study seeks to construct an ideal-type model of Pukhtun society based on the ideal Code of the Pukhtuns and to analyse the conditions of its maintenance and transformation. The author’s thesis is that this ideal model exists within Pukhtun society when interaction with larger state systems is minimal and in poor economic zones. In this way he posits an opposition between the Tribal Agencies along the border with Afghanistan, where ecological conditions are poor and state influence minimal, and the Settled Areas under state administration where Pukhtun society is forced away from its ideals.
