This book, the first feminist ethnography of the violence in Northern Ireland, is an analysis of a political conflict through the lens of gender. The case in point is the working-class Catholic resistance to British rule in Northern Ireland. During the 1970s women in Catholic/nationalist districts of Belfast organized themselves into street committees and led popular forms of resistance against the policies of the government of Northern Ireland and, after its demise, against those of the British. In the abundant literature on the conflict, however, the political tactics of nationalist women ha

"Simon Glass was easy to hate....I guess, really we each hated him for a different reason, but we didn’t realize it until the day we killed him." Fat, clumsy Simon Glass is a nerd, a loser who occupies the lowest rung on the high school social ladder. Everyone picks on him -- until Rob Haynes shows up. Rob, a transfer student with charisma to spare, immediately becomes the undisputed leader of the senior class. And he has plans for Simon.

Islam is often portrayed, especially in Western media, as an alien, violent, hostile, and monolithic religion, whose adherents are intent upon battling nonbelievers throughout the world. Shattering the Myth demonstrates that these conceptions more accurately reflect the bias of Western reporters than they do the realities of contemporary Islam. Westerners are barraged by images of violence that usually originate from armed confrontations in one small corner of the world. Islam, Bruce Lawrence argues, is a complex, international religious system that cannot be reduced to stereotypes. As Lawrenc

From the Author Dr. David F. Allen: Shattering the Gods Within describes how once we face our hearts we find much resistance to God, our deeper selves, and love in the world. The book discusses how six major pseudo-gods or addictions in modern culture block the heart: narcissism, conformity, materialism, the sacredness of the affect, the bane of the extraordinary, and the illusion of permanence. The book deals with the shattering of these pseudo- gods or addictions of modern culture as a way to open our hearts to the love that will not let us go, and the face that does not turn away.

Everyone knows someone who needs this book. Perhaps it’s that person who’s always talking about what he’ll do once he wins the lottery. Maybe it’s the woman who’s just waiting for Prince Charming to show up and whisk her away. Or maybe it’s the guy who changes employers more often than the weather in the quest for the "perfect job." All of these individuals suffer from a virus called fairy-tale thinking, the philosophical belief that something wonderful will happen someday simply because one is good or believes.Shattering the Glass Slipper
