Paul and the Person
In this book Susan Grove Eastman presents a fresh and innovative exploration of Paul's participatory theology in conversation with both ancient and contemporary conceptions of the self. Juxtaposing Paul, ancient philosophers, and modern theorists of the person, Eastman opens up a conversation that illuminates Paul's thought in new ways and brings his voice into current debates about personhood.
The Cambridge Companion to the Gospels
Authoritative chapters chart new developments of gospels interpretation in four main areas: background, content, interpretation and impact.
DEATH AND OTHER OBSESSIONS
In Death and Other Obsessions a newly appointed detective sergeant struggles to gain the respect of his colleagues while investigating the suspicious deaths of two authors. On his first day as a newly appointed detective sergeant with Merton CID, Sanjay Patel is asked to investigate the suspicious death of crime writer Joan Templeton. The main beneficiary of her will is her hard-up niece, Sarah Musgrove, whose husband has the know-how to disable her car. Then Pearl Bailey, a fellow writer who was at Cambridge with Joan Templeton, is killed with a single blow to the head. Are the murders linked? There are a number of suspects: Michael Groves, recently released from prison after serving a sentence for murdering his wife and known to both women. Or Pearl Bailey’s lodger and lover, Helena, her disapproving father, Miles Cooke, or maybe even the disgruntled literary agent Anne Gregory…

Rare Blood Sect
A young woman is found dead in the wooded area of one of the local parks and Detective Robb Jensen is assigned to the case. He soon realizes that this murder is just one of a several of murders in the city and surrounding areas, and it appears the murders are related: each of the victims had the exact same rare blood type. Can Robb and his team of detectives, CSI agents, pathologists, and, eventually, the FBI solve the crimes before anyone else is targeted and falls victim to the Rare Blood Sect?
God and Grace in Philo and Paul
In God and Grace in Philo and Paul, Orrey McFarland examines how Philo of Alexandria and the Apostle Paul understood divine grace. While scholars have occasionally observed that Philo and Paul both speak about God’s generosity, such work has often placed the two theologians in either strong continuity or stark discontinuity without probing into the theological logic that animates the particularities of their thought. By contrast, McFarland sets Philo and Paul in conversation and argues that both could speak of divine gifts emphatically and in formally similar ways while making materially different theological judgments in the context of their concrete historical settings and larger theological frameworks. That is, McFarland demonstrates how their theologies of grace are neither identical nor antithetical.
Instability Rules
World-altering discoveries that reveal a universe of uncertainty and constant change Whether probing the farthest reaches of the vast universe or exploring the microscopic world of genetics and the subatomic world of quantum mechanics, Instability Rules is a remarkably informative and engaging look at ten milestone discoveries and their discoverers-a wide range of very human personalities whose insights have dramatically altered our most basic assumptions about human existence during the last century. The stories include Edwin Hubble and the expanding universe, Alfred Wegener and continental drift, Neils Bohr and quantum mechanics, Alan Turing and artificial intelligence, and James Watson and Francis Crick and DNA. Also covering discoveries of the twenty-first century that are already refining these and other ideas, Instability Rules is an exhilarating, sometimes amusing encounter with the defining scientific discoveries of our age.
"In Christ" in Paul
Nineteen biblical scholars and theologians in this volume explore the notions of union and participation within Pauline theology, teasing out the complex web of meaning conveyed through Paul's theological vision of being "in Christ." With essays that investigate Pauline theology and exegesis, ex-amine highlights from reception history, and offer deep theological reflection, this exemplary multidisciplinary collection charts new ground in the scholarly understanding of Paul's thought and its theological implications.
