The burgeoning terrain of Martin Luther King Jr. studies is leading to a new appreciation of his thought and its meaningfulness for the emergence and shaping of the twenty-first-century world. This volume brings together an impressive array of scholars from various backgrounds and disciplines to explore the global significance of King—then, now, and in the future. Employing King’s metaphor of “the great world house,” the major focus is on King’s appraisal of the global-human struggle in the 1950s and 1960s, his relevance for today’s world, and how future generations might constructively apply or appropriate his key ideas and values in addressing racism, poverty and economic injustice, militarism, sexism, homophobia, the environmental crisis, globalization, and other challenges confronting humanity today. The contributors treat King in context and beyond context, taking seriously the historical King while also exploring how his name, activities, contributions, and legacy are still associated with a globalized rights culture.

In 1918, as the First World War was drawing to a close, the eminent liberal industrial Lord Leverhulme bought - lock, stock and barrel - the Hebridean island of Lewis. His intention was to revolutionise the lives and environments of its 30,000 people, and those of neighbouring Harris, which he shortly added to his estate. For the next five years a state of conflict reigned in the Hebrides. Island seamen and servicemen returned from the war to discover a new landlord whose declared aim was to uproot their identity as independent crofter/fishermen and turn them into tenured wage-owners. They fought back, and this is the story of that fight. The confrontation resulted in riot and land seizure and imprisonment for the islanders and the ultimate defeat for one of the most powerful men of his day. The Soap Man paints a beguiling portrait of the driven figure of Lord Leverhulme, but also looks for the first time at the infantry of his opposition: the men and women of Lewis and Harris who for long hard years fought the law, their landowner, local business opinion and the entire media, to preserve the settled crofting population of their islands.

Christian Dubose provides a good starting point for those seeking the truth of Christianity and its evidence. In the introduction, he introduces Pascal's Wager and explains why one's heart should be open to the possibility of a God existing. He then starts with science, going through several scientific findings that suggest a God is real. Following this, he delves into philosophy, explaining that through philosophical reasoning, one can know that God exists. After this, he explores history, specifically as laid out in the Bible. He explains how prophecies not only show that a God exists but that the God of the Bible is that God. He discusses how Jesus's miracles and resurrection are so well attested that they should be believed. Dubose also addresses objections to God in each category and provides responses to these challenges. Lastly, he examines phenomena such as near-death experiences, prayer studies, and modern-day miracle reports to argue for the existence of the supernatural. At the end of each section on the evidence for God, he offers a short list of recommended books for readers interested in furthering their studies.

In this long-awaited sequel to the “unforgettable” (Boston Herald) bestseller Mrs. Mike, Benedict and Nancy Freedman paint a portrait of the World War II era—as seen through the eyes of a young Cree woman on her own for the very first time… When her dear friend O Be Joyful died in a flu epidemic, Mrs. Mike Flanigan opened her home—and heart—to her orphaned child, Kathy Forquet. Over the years, young Kathy delighted in the Flanigans’ love—and suffered the pain of her schoolmates’ prejudice. But as the terrors of World War II drew closer to home, Kathy decided to leave her familiar home and do her part by going to a nursing school in Montreal. There her life fills with drama and excitement as she meets two very different men—a Native American who helps her understand her lost heritage, and a wounded Austrian soldier who shares fascinating stories of his exotic, embattled homeland. And as she learns about herself and the world beyond her hometown, she tries to find the elusive prize she has sought for so long: the meaning of true joy… Richly detailed and emotionally powerful, The Search for Joyful is the inspiring story of a young woman’s courageous search for fulfillment—and the long-awaited new novel by the authors of the beloved Mrs. Mike, praised by Library Journal as “a book the reader will be unable to put down until the last page is read.”

Set against the backdrop of fin-de-siècle Paris, 'In Search of Lost Time' is a rich tapestry of philosophical musings and emotional discoveries, representing a landmark in the history of the novel. Marcel Proust's personal experiences and observations greatly influenced his writing, as he drew inspiration from his own life and relationships to craft a narrative that resonates with universal truths. His keen introspection and psychological acuity shine through in every page, making 'In Search of Lost Time' a profound meditation on the nature of existence and the complexities of human emotion.
