This is a HANDBOOK not a paperback. It outlines 7 Steps to increase the likelihood of obtaining a strong, pain-free back and keeping it. Anyone suffering with sciatica, stenosis, disc bulges or herniations, or just plain back pain will find this as a helpful guide to beat your problem. When I was 22, I had sciatic pain for the better part of two years. Using some of these same steps I was able to achieve relief, and for the last 38 years I have been pain-free. Some of the 7 Steps are: proper hydration for the disc, orthotics for the arches to align of the pelvis, correct posture, and mattresses. Also included are 5 different case studies of back pain and 12 examples of spinal fusions with a discussion of each one. This handbook will be a great reference for you and your family for the rest of your life! It is packed with 80 illustrations, over 60 x-rays and MRI's with labeling for easier comprehension, and well over 100 photos which paint the subject of a strong, pain-free back much more interesting.

2007 John Pollock Award for Christian Biography (Beeson Divinity School, Samford University)For more than half a century, E. Stanley Jones (1884-1973) was arguably the most widely known and universally admired Christian missionary and evangelist of the twentieth century. He went to India as a missionary of the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1907 and later became an itinerant evangelist. Equally concerned for social justice and spirituality, Jones supported Indian aspirations for independence, and was sensitive to Indian religious traditions. He founded two Christian ashrams (religious retreats) in India, one at Sat Tal and the other in Lucknow (where he also founded a psychiatric center). He wrote nearly thirty books, most notably The Christ of the Indian Road (1925). This is a paperback book with a photo section.Dr. Graham has written a chronological account of the life and ministry of E. Stanley Jones's life for a broad audience. Jones's life is set in the context of the historical, political, and religious events of his day. In particular, Jones's life and ministry will be set against the backdrop of the Christian missionary movement in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries; the aftermath of WWI; the different phases of the Indian independence movement; the origins of Japanese imperialism and militarism in the Pacific during the 1930s and 1940s; and finally, American domestic and international politics following WWII.

Cities are the new battleground of our increasingly urban world. From the slums of the global South to the wealthy financial centers of the West, Cities Under Siege traces the spread of political violence through the sites, spaces, infrastructure and symbols of the world's rapidly expanding metropolitan areas.Drawing on a wealth of original research, Stephen Graham shows how Western militaries and security forces now perceive all urban terrain as a conflict zone inhabited by lurking shadow enemies. Urban inhabitants have become targets that need to be continually tracked, scanned and controlled. Graham examines the transformation of Western armies into high-tech urban counter-insurgency forces. He looks at the militarization and surveillance of international borders, the use of ';security' concerns to suppress democratic dissent, and the enacting of legislation to suspend civilian law. In doing so, he reveals how the New Military Urbanism permeates the entire fabric of urban life, from subway and transport networks hardwired with high-tech ';command and control' systems to the insidious militarization of a popular culture corrupted by the all-pervasive discourse of ';terrorism.'
