  • - Study of the Book of James
    af Sally Baker
    98,95 kr.

    The letter James the brother of Jesus wrote to Jewish Christians over 2000 years ago is as relevant and practical for us today as it was then. James' writing is passionate about how vitally important it is to have both an inside the heart relationship with God and for that faith to be evident on the outside in the way we live our lives and interact with others. Embracing the transforming power of the new life we have in Christ will make a very real difference in the way we respond to all the circumstances that surround us.

  • - Getting Up Close and Personal with the 23rd Psalm
    af Sally Baker
    98,95 kr.

    Psalm 23 is such a familiar passage of scripture that it is very easy to overlook the depth of its message. But if God is my Shepherd and I am one of the sheep in His flock, what does that mean for how I live my life? What is my Shepherd like? How can I learn to follow in his footsteps and discover the blessing of becoming sheepish?

    In many respects the world has changed a great deal since the times of the women whose stories are part of the biblical narrative. However, even though they lived many years ago and in cultures that were in some ways very different from our own, the interpersonal relationships, life circumstances, reoccurring temptations, and faith choices that were a part of their lives are very similar to what women face today. Because these similarities are indeed so familiar and real, there is a great deal we can learn from their very personal encounters with God; and their stories have the potential for powerfully impacting our own faith journeys.

  • - Resisting Definitions as Radical
    af Sally Baker

    This book explores questions of care in higher education. Using Joan Trontös seven signs that institutions are not caring well, the authors examine whether students and staff consider universities to be caring institutions. As such, they outline how universities systematically, structurally, and actively ¿undercare¿ when it comes to supporting students and staff, a phenomenon which was amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic. Drawing on scholarly ideas from the sociology of care, higher education, social justice, and feminist critique, and in dialogue with empirical insights gathered with people who work and study in universities in Australia, South Africa, and the UK, the book questions why people care, as well as why adopting a caring position in higher education can be viewed as radical. The authors conclude by asking what we can do to counter that view by thinking carefully about the purpose, power, and plurality of care, before imagining how we can create more caring universities.

    af Sally Baker & Brian J Brown

    Despite the great changes that the twentieth century brought to the lives and roles of the women of rural Wales, there has been scant attention paid to the topic by social scientists and historians, even within Wales. "e;Mothers, Wives and Changing Lives"e; rectifies that mistake, drawing on a wealth of family stories about women's roles in education, the church, and the family in order to address significant gaps in our knowledge of women and Welsh culture.

  • - Individuals, Health and Policy under Neoliberalism
    af B. J. Brown
    341,95 - 1.242,95 kr.

    The individual has never been more important in society - in almost every sphere of public and private life, the individual is sovereign. Yet the importance and apparent power assigned to the individual is not all that it seems. As 'Responsible Citizens' investigates via its UK-based case studies, this emphasis on the individual has gone hand in hand with a rise in subtle authoritarianism, which has insinuated itself into the government of the population. Whilst present throughout the public services, this authoritarianism is most conspicuous in the health and social welfare sectors, such that a kind of 'governance through responsibility' is today enforced upon the population.In the twenty-first century, individualism has come to pervade the body politic, especially where health and social care are concerned. Clients who may be at their most abject and vulnerable are urged to take responsibility for themselves rather than further burden the health and social care services. In some British healthcare trusts, prosecutions are mounted against clients who have lost their temper or who act inappropriately as a result of their disorientation, under the guise of 'making them take responsibility for their actions'. Citizens on the street in Britain are likely to have responsibility thrust upon them through mechanisms such as electronic surveillance and the burgeoning new cohorts of community enforcement officers, as well as the police themselves. Thus taking responsibility is never quite as simple as it seems - being responsible demarcates the borderland between autonomy and authority, and often equates to simply 'doing what you're told'.
