This work represents the current and most relevant content on the studies of how Christianity has fared in the ancient home of its founder and birth. Much has been written about Christianity and how it has survived since its migration out of its homeland but this comprehensive reference work reassesses the geographic and demographic impact of the dramatic changes in this perennially combustible world region. The Rowman & Littlefield Handbook of Christianity in the Middle East also spans the historical, socio-political and contemporary settings of the region and importantly describes the interactions that Christianity has had with other major/minor religions in the region.
Der 70. Geburtstag von Professor Dr. Dr. Hubert Kaufhold war für Kollegen, Freunde und Schüler ein willkommener Anlass, diese Festschrift vorzubereiten. Mit ihren Beiträgen für Orientalia Christiana dokumentieren sie nicht nur das weite Spektrum der Forschungen Hubert Kaufholds im Bereich der Wissenschaft vom Christlichen Orient; sie geben darüber hinaus auch einen umfassenden Überblick zum internationalen Stand und zur inneren Dynamik einer Disziplin, die sich im Kontext hochschulpolitischer Neuorientierungen immer wieder neu behaupten muss. Vor allem aber betrachten Herausgeber und Autoren diesen Band als ein Zeugnis der weltweiten Wirkung Hubert Kaufholds sowie als Zeichen des Dankes, den es einem außergewöhnlichen Gelehrten abzustatten gilt.

New York Times bestselling author William Lashner returns with a brilliantly twisty tale that probes the dark side of the law -- and man Unlike the rest of you, I cheerfully admit to my own utter selfishness. I am self-made, self-absorbed, self-serving, self-referential, even self-deprecating, in a charming sort of way. In short, I am all the selfs except selfless. Yet every so often, I run across a force of nature that shakes my sublime self-centeredness to its very roots. Something that tears through the landscape like a tornado, leaving nothing but ruin and reexamination in its wake. Something like Bob. --Victor Carl A beautiful young woman is dead, her husband convicted of the murder. In...

The activities that transpire within the classroom either help or hinder students' learning. Any meaningful discussion of educational renewal, therefore, must focus explicitly and directly on the classroom, and on the teaching and learning that occur within it. This book presents a case for the development of classrooms in which students are encouraged to construct deep understandings of important concepts. Jacqueline Grennon Brooks and Martin Brooks present a new set of images for educational settings, images that emerge from student engagement, interaction, reflection, and construction. They have considerable experience in creating constructivist educational settings and conducting research on those settings. Authentic examples are provided throughout the book, as are suggestions for administrators, teachers, and policymakers. For the new edition of their popular book, the authors have written an introduction that places their work in today's educational renewal setting. Today, they urge, the case for constructivist classrooms is much stronger and the need more critical. Note: This product listing is for the Adobe Acrobat (PDF) version of the book.
