Описание:
Award winning poet (Florida Authors and Publishers Association President's Book Award; The Eudora Welty Prize), Jeff Weddle, returns with a new collection: Dead Man's Hand.
Weddle tackles the problem with words exhausted by outrage. His cast of characters - cats, dogs, the child in our heart, the moon gone dancing as a piano spills waltzes - ask stories of time; a muse, imperfect but enough to earn a bow in an empty theater. This is poetry sharp as a straight razor.
Описание: A Day In The Life Of An Ambulance Driver is a collection of stories told from the viewpoint of the author during his time as an EMT, paramedic and Navy Corpsman. These stories are based on real life situations and told with attention to detail in an attempt to help the reader visualize the experience for him or her self. The author has over 20 years of experience in the emergency medical field. He chose the stories included in this book to show the broad range of medical situations that happen during the course of a career.Many of the men and women that have served in the EMS service, whether it was in an active war zone or in areas of terror attacks, have witnessed horrors much worse than are portrayed in these pages. They have placed their lives on the line for those that they helped. This is not to make light of or belittle any of the work done by these brave men and woman. Please take a moment to pray for those that have been hurt physically and mentally thought their service. There are many charities out there that do great work for police, fire, EMS and military personnel. Ten percent of all proceeds gotten from the sales of this book will be donated to the Wounded Warrior Foundation.

Описание: An examination of the practice and philosophy of sacrifice in three religious traditions In the book of Genesis, God tests the faith of the Hebrew patriarch Abraham by demanding that he sacrifice the life of his beloved son, Isaac. Bound by common admiration for Abraham, the religious traditions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam also promote the practice of giving up human and natural goods to attain religious ideals. Each tradition negotiates the moral dilemmas posed by Abraham’s story in different ways, while retaining the willingness to perform sacrifice as an identifying mark of religious commitment. This book considers the way in which Jews, Christians, and Muslims refer to “sacrifice”—not only as ritual offerings, but also as the donation of goods, discipline, suffering, and martyrdom. Weddle highlights objections to sacrifice within these traditions as well, presenting voices of dissent and protest in the name of ethical duty. Sacrifice forfeits concrete goods for abstract benefits, a utopian vision of human community, thereby sparking conflict with those who do not share the same ideals. Weddle places sacrifice in the larger context of the worldviews of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, using this nearly universal religious act as a means of examining similarities of practice and differences of meaning among these important world religions. This book takes the concept of sacrifice across these three religions, and offers a cross-cultural approach to understanding its place in history and deep-rooted traditions.
