Download or read book Towpath written by Lori De Mori and published by Chelsea Green Publishing. This book was released on 2020 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot has changed since Towpath first rolled up its shutters 10 years ago on the Regent’s Canal in Hackney and everything but the toasted cheese sandwich was cooked from home across the bridge. And a lot hasn’t. It is still as much a social experiment as a unique and beloved eatery. What happens when seasonality means you close every year in November, because England’s cold, dark winters are simply inhospitable to hospitality from a little perch beside a shallow, manmade waterway that snakes through East London? What if you don’t offer takeaway coffees in the hopes that people will decide to stay awhile and watch the coots skittering across the water? If you don’t have a phone or a website, because you’d rather people just show up like (hungry) kids at a playground? Towpath is a collection of recipes, stories and photographs capturing the vibrant cafe’s food, community and place throughout the arc of its season – beginning just before the first breath of spring, through the dog days of summer and culminating – with fireworks! – before its painted shutters are rolled down again for winter.

Book The Goldilocks God

    Book Details:
  • Author : Guy Collins
  • Publisher : Lexington Books
  • Release : 2022-08-22
  • ISBN : 1978713487
  • Pages : 267 pages

Download or read book The Goldilocks God written by Guy Collins and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2022-08-22 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Goldilocks God: Searching for the via media explores the fertile middle ground between toxic Christianity and militant atheism. Can Christianity be intellectually credible? Why do our past failures and breakages offer comfort and hope? How does the via media of Anglicanism offer tactics for dealing with contemporary challenges and uncertainties? Whether exploring mystic Hildegard von Bingen, strategic thinker Queen Elizabeth, or theologians Jean-Luc Marion and Sarah Coakley, readers venture into a Trinitarian Goldilocks zone of faith, hope, and love. Guy Collins makes a creative and heartfelt case for a “spiritual thermodynamics” of trial and error, promise and glory. Illuminating ancient Christian practice with cutting-edge philosophy and theology, he reveals the lifelong habits that are “just right” for encountering the mystery of God.

Book Development Organizations

Download or read book Development Organizations written by Rebecca Schaaf and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Continuing debates over the meaning of development and awareness of the persistence of poverty have resulted in increasing concern over how to ‘do’ development. There are growing numbers of development organizations, undertaking different activities, at different scales, with different motivations, and differing levels of success. It is necessary to identify and evaluate these varied organizations, in order to recognize their successes and failures. Development Organizations is the first introductory text to focus specifically on the variety of organizations involved in development policy and practice. It explores the range and role of organizations, including community-based organizations and civil society actors, international non-governmental organizations, state and other national-based actors, global forms of governance, international financial institutions and transnational corporations. The historical and contemporary role of each of these actors is considered, with analysis of complex theoretical debates surrounding their existence and their activities. The book also explores the political and contested nature of development activities promoted by these organizations, and their effects on society, the economy and the environment. These issues are also considered in context of the Millennium Development Goals; the agenda which currently impacts on the operation and outcomes of the broad range of development organizations. This invaluable text is richly complimented throughout with case studies to help illustrate the operations of development organizations; from the impact of multinational oil companies in the Niger delta to the impact of IMF reforms in Latin America and the Caribbean. This clearly written and user friendly text contains a wealth of features to assist student learning, including start of chapter learning outcomes, and end of chapter summaries, discussion topics, and suggestions for further reading and relevant websites.

Book Practice as Research in the Arts  and Beyond

Download or read book Practice as Research in the Arts and Beyond written by Robin Nelson and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-19 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project addresses the contexts of Practice as Research and how to undertake it. This second iteration updates thinking and practices but sustains a direct and clear approach on how to become a practitioner-researcher. New features include an extension of range “beyond” the arts and a case for intra-disciplinarity in Practice Research as an influence in the formation of the “future university”. A comparison is made between Artistic Research and Practice Research recognizing that research through practices with being-doing-knowing is central to both. Acknowledging the current crisis in legitimation, a broad view is taken of how things might be known by an onto-epistemology for the twenty-first century foregrounding the bodymind but sustaining rationality and community by way of Other/other dialogic exchange. Perspectives from around the world in Part II offset the more Eurocentric emphasis in Part I.

Book The Living and the Dead

Download or read book The Living and the Dead written by Liz Wilson and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection examines the social dimensions of death in South Asian religions, exploring the ritualized exchanges between the living and the dead performed by Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, and other religious groups. Using ethnographic and historical tools associated with the comparative and historical study of religion, the contributors also record the voices and actions of marginalized groups—such as tribal peoples, women, and members of lower castes—who are often underrepresented in studies of South Asian deathways, which typically focus on the writings and practices of elite groups. For many religious people, death entails a journey leading to some new condition or place. As the ultimate experience of passage, it is highly ceremonial and ritualized, and those beliefs and practices associated with the moment of death itself—death-bed ceremonies, funerary rites, and rituals of mourning and of remembering—are examined here. The Living and the Dead offers historical depth, ethnographic detail, and conceptual clarity on a subject that is of immense importance in South Asian religious traditions.

Book Resourcing Mission

    Book Details:
  • Author : Helen Cameron
  • Publisher : SCM Press
  • Release : 2013-01-03
  • ISBN : 0334047978
  • Pages : 193 pages

Download or read book Resourcing Mission written by Helen Cameron and published by SCM Press. This book was released on 2013-01-03 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a lively debate about the mission of the local church and an interest in doing new things or doing things differently. However, when church leaders start to work out the implications of change, they immediately come across real issues such as the time, money and buildings needed and how to make decisions that will change things, yet keep most people on board. "Resourcing Mission" offers the missing link between missiological thinking and the practical theological thinking about the task of mobilising local churches. Helen Cameron discusses questions such as the use of available time and money, different models of income, different models of leadership, the use of buildings, changing patterns of risk and regulation and approaches to decision making. "Resourcing Mission" shows how practical theology and mission and ministry need to work together and draw on each other's resources to strengthen the work of the church.

Book A Practical Guide to Congenital Developmental Disorders and Learning Difficulties

Download or read book A Practical Guide to Congenital Developmental Disorders and Learning Difficulties written by Judith P. Hudson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To give children with congenital developmental conditions that manifest special learning needs and specific disabilities their best chance to succeed, early identification and appropriate interventions and support, is necessary. This text highlights what to look for when there are concerns about a child’s development. Practical and accessible, it is divided into three sections: Part 1 looks at the theory and policy context, discussing the social model of disability, the responsibility of health, social care and education services to the child and family and the role of reviews and assessment in recognising developmental disorders. Part 2 provides a reference guide to atypical developmental conditions and disorders. For each condition, aetiology, prominent theories and research, profile of features – including triggers and behaviours, diagnostic assessment procedures and appropriate interventions are given and links made to sources of further information and support. Part 3 explores practical issues how to work sensitively and effectively with children and their families, looking at the psychological implications of diagnosis, and how to plan, promote, deliver and evaluate multi-agency support. Designed to support professionals working within a multi-modal, collaborative approach to assessment and intervention processes, it is suitable for health visitors, allied health therapists, nurses, teachers and social care practitioners. It is also a useful reference for students in these areas learning about child development and includes critical reading exercises; online searching tasks; self-assessment questions; reflective activities and document analysis prompts.
