Описание: This book examines how the identification of John the Evangelist with the Apostle John, the son of Zebedee, from around the third century, gave rise to various conflated narratives. Dean Furlong argues that this culminated in Eusebius`s synthesis of the traditions, which provided the template for the traditional Johannine narrative.

Описание: With the right information, we can develop public policies that work better.
All too often, public policy textbooks offer a basic grounding in the policy process without the benefit of integrating the use of policy analysis. Michael E. Kraft and Scott R. Furlong take a different tack.
Public Policy: Politics, Analysis, and Alternatives, Seventh Edition helps students understand how and why policy analysis is used to assess policy alternatives. The text encourages them to not only question the assumptions of policy analyst, but also recognize how these strategies are used in the support of political arguments. The authors introduce and fully integrate an evaluative approach to policy to encourage critical and creative thinking on issues ranging from health care to climate change. From a concise review of institutions, policy actors, and major theoretical models to a discussion of the nature of policy analysis and its practice, Kraft and Furlong show students how to employ evaluative criteria in six substantive policy areas. Students come away with the analytic tools they need to understand that the motivations of policy actors--both within and outside of government--influence a complex yet comprehensible policy agenda.

Описание: The women mystics of medieval Europe represent the very first feminine voices heard in a world where women were nearly silent. As such, they are striking and unusual, strange, powerful and urgent. Monica Furlong uses key selections from among these women's own writings and writings about them by their contemporaries, along with her own assessment of them, to open up their contributions to a wide popular audience. The eleven women represented in this anthology were housewives, visionaries, abbesses, beguines, recluses, and nuns who wrote between the eleventh and fourteenth centuries. They include: - H loise, the scholar and abbess, whose letters to Abelard are treasure of medieval literature - Hildegard of Bingen, the visionary Rhineland nun - Clare of Assisi, the close friend of Saint Francis and founder of the Poor Clares - Catherine of Siena, an influential spiritual counselor whose book, Dialogue, consists of a debate between herself and God - Julian of Norwich, the English hermitess who spent the greater part of her life meditating on and coming to understand the striking visions she received as a young woman - and many others

Описание: Among the Irish Travellers living in the Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee, no one forgets and no one forgives. And as former Marine MP Brynn Callahan finds out when she returns home, it's hard to bury the past when bodies keep turning up . . . After an abrupt end to her tour of duty, Brynn and her canine partner Wilco arrive stateside--both bearing the scars of battle. With a mix of affection, curiosity, and misgivings, Brynn heads back to Bone Gap, Tennessee, and the insular culture she'd hoped to escape by enlisting in the Marine Corps. The Irish Travellers keep to themselves in the mountains, maintaining an uneasy coexistence with the "settled" townspeople of McCreary. But when Wilco's training as a cadaver dog leads Brynn to discover a body in the woods, long-simmering tensions threaten to boil over. Forming a reluctant alliance with local sheriff Frank Pusser, Brynn must dig up secrets that not only will rattle her close-knit clan to its core, but may forever change her perception of who she is . . . and put her back in the line of fire.
