History and the Christian Historian
This volume arises out of special concerns of historians who are also Christians. What case can be made for connecting historical work and religious convictions? What is the relation of faith to history? What difference could Christian perspectives make in historical study? Thirteen respected scholars — including some who have changed the face of history writing in the twentieth century — here take up a diversity of subjects in giving a provisional answer to these important questions. In exploring foundational issues of perspective and theory, engaging discrete themes such as feminism, puritanism, and missiology, and discussing the application of religious insights in teaching history, this excellent collection of essays forthrightly addresses the “epistemological crisis” brought on by the postmodern critique of truth and demonstrates the positive implications of a Christian perspective for the study of history and historiography.
Ulster Migration to America
This book addresses a neglected area of Irish emigration to America, that from Ulster in the nineteenth century. Studies of nineteenth and twentieth century Irish emigration have centered on the south and the west of Ireland. Or, when emigration from the north of Ireland has been studied, it has typically been concerned with the eighteenth century. This is a study of America Letters, the letters sent home to the north of Ireland from Ulster emigrants in America. Insofar as it is possible to illumine the mind of emigration, the letters of ordinary people help us to do so. The letters in this book are from three families - two Protestant, one Catholic - and they range in time-span between 1843 and 1932.
The Best of the Reformed Journal
For four decades, from 1951 to 1990, The Reformed Journal set the standard for top-notch, venturesome theological reflection on a broad range of issues. With a lively mix of editorial comment, articles, and reviews, it addressed topics as diverse as the civil rights movement, feminism, the Vietnam War, South African apartheid, the plight of Palestinian Christians, and the rise of the Christian Right, all from a Reformed perspective. In this anthology James Bratt and Ronald Wells have assembled select pieces that exemplify the Journal's position at the cutting edge of thoughtful Christian engagement with culture.

The Chameleon in the Room
The Chameleon in the Room provides practical strategies and tactics for the management of the risks that injure real businesses. Real businesses are those that produce, trade, consume or distribute physical commodities, machinery, parts and equipment or consumer products and services.

People Behind the Peace
The social and political strife in Northern Ireland is one of the longest-lived conflicts in the modern world. Yet the full story of Northern Ireland, including the peace process finally begun with the 1998 Good Friday agreement, is more expansive than the political sphere. This timely work tells the important stories of Christians who helped create the context in which the politicians were able to build a framework for reconciliation in Northern Ireland.
