Paul Reeve on Race & Priesthood
I'm excited to have Dr Paul Reeve back on the show! He's the author of a new Deseret Book called "Lets Talk About Race & Priesthood." We're going to dive deep into the priesthood and temple ban, and we're going to highlight some early black Mormons you probably won't be familiar with. We'll also talk about some exceptions to the ban, including the son of a slave who was ordained in 1971! Paul discusses justifications for the ban, and how he responds to those claims. You won't want to miss this conversation....
Religion of a Different Color
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormonism) has consistently found itself on the wrong side of white. Mormon whiteness in the nineteenth century was a contested variable not an assumed fact. Religion of a Different Color traces Mormonism's racial trajectory from not white enough in the nineteenth century, to too white by the twenty-first.
Making Space on the Western Frontier
Until recently, most scholarly work on Chinese music in both Chinese and Western languages has focused on genres, musical structure, and general history and concepts, rather than on the musicians themselves. This volume breaks new ground by focusing on individual musicians active in different amateur and professional music scenes in mainland China, Hong Kong, and Chinese communities in Europe. Using biography to deepen understanding of Chinese music, contributors present contextualized portraits of rural folk singers, urban opera singers, literati, and musicians on both geographic and cultural frontiers. Contributors are Nimrod Baranovitch, Rachel Harris, Frank Kouwenhoven, Tong Soon Lee, Peter Micic, Helen Rees, Antoinet Schimmelpenninck, Shao Binsun, Jonathan P. J. Stock, and Bell Yung.
Mormonism
Covering its historic development, important individuals, and central ideas and issues, this encyclopedia offers broad historical coverage of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Mormonism: A Historical Encyclopedia helps readers explore a church that has gone from being an object of ridicule and sometimes violent persecution to a worldwide religion, counting prominent businesspeople and political leaders among its members (including former Massachusetts governor and recent presidential candidate Mitt Romney). The encyclopedia begins with an overview of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints—six essays cover the church's history from Joseph Smith's first vision in 1820...
Dr Reeve
Rick Bennett of Gospel Tangents sat down with Dr. Paul Reeve, history professor at the University of Utah to discuss findings from his recent book "Religion of a Different Color" which discusses the history of the racial ban by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints between the 1840s to 1978. Transcripts of the interviews were previous published as a series of interviews. This edition combines the entire 90 minute interviews.
Essentials of Environmental Management
Over recent years, there has been a rapid expansion in the number of professionals requiring knowledge and skills in environmental management.

Essentials of environmental management provides a comprehensive introduction to the management of environmental issues. Clearly structured and illustrated, the book explains why and how organisations should manage their environmental interactions at both strategic and operational levels. N...
The Origins of Fairness
Develops further John Rawls' intuition that our sense of justice is rooted in our evolutionary past and presents a new theory of morality based on evolutionary biology.
Mormonism
It began in upstate New York with Joseph Smith's miraculous vision. It spread across the American West with Brigham Young's founding of over 300 settlements and his establishment of Utah as its headquarters. Today, Mormonism is continually expanding with more members outside the United States than within. Mormonism: A Historical Encyclopedia helps readers explore a church that has gone from being an object of ridicule and sometimes violent persecution to a worldwide religion, counting prominent businesspeople and political leaders among its members (including former Massachusetts governor and 2012 presidential candidate Mitt Romney).
