A series of uncut, original letters home from a young intelligence agent stationed in Vietnam's most remote province at the Cambodian border, describing in graphic detail the fears, the ambitions, the hopes, the explanations and the quirks of a U.S. army outpost, including descriptions of how "Reality and Headquarters never meet", told during the 1970 Cambodian invasion through the spring of 1971, when U.S. troops are being withdrawn and the exhausted author readies his return to "the World."

Paperback. Condition: New. This volume brings together over 25 articles by many of the most important authors who have worked on issues directly related to the theme of religion and globalization. An additional emphasis on culture flags the inclusion of the relation of religion to its wider social context and also permits questioning the boundaries of religion so as to avoid a strong bias in favour of the analysis of institutionalized religion. The key emphasis of the book, however, is the focus specifically on religion, a topic that is still largely ignored in the burgeoning literature on globalization. The articles are divided into five subthemes: theoretical issues; historical approaches to religion and globalization; forms and boundaries of religion; key issues (such as ecology and gender); and regional perspectives.Contributors: Afe Adogame, Elisabeth Arweck, Lori Beaman, Peter Beyer, John Boli, Gary Bouma, Dave Brewington, George Van Campbell, José Casanova, Paul Freston, Nobutaka Inoue, Laurel Kearns, Otto Maduro, Vasilios Makrides, Meredith McGuire, Vincenzo Pace, Rubina Ramji, James T. Richardson, Ole Riis, Roland Robertson, Marie-Andrée Roy, Shandip Saha, John H. Simpson, James V. Spickard, William Stahl, George Thomas, Bryan Turner, Margit Warburg, and Michael Wilkinson.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Canada officially prides itself on being a multicultural nation, welcoming people from all around the world, and enshrining that status in its Charter of Rights and Freedoms as well as in an array of laws and policies that aim to protect citizens from discrimination on various grounds, including race, cultural origin, sexual orientation, and religion. This volume explores the intersection of these diversities, foregrounding religion as the primary focus of analysis. Taking as their point of departure the contested meaning and implications of the term diversity, the various contributions address issues such as the power relations that diversity implies, the cultural context that limits the understanding and practical acceptance of religious diversity, and how Canada compares in these matters to other countries. Taken together the essays therefore elucidate the Canadian case while also having relevance for understanding this critical issue globally.

56 cards (four of which are the title card, the dedication, the limitation, and the preface) housed in a box. This edition consists of 600 copies on Mowhawk Superfine set in Times and printed on a Hamada offset press by Brad Freeman, master printer at Pyramid Atlantic, under the direction of Elizabeth Whiteley, book artist, of which 100 are numbered 1-100 and signed by the author and the book artist, and 500 copies are numbered from 101 to 600, and of which this copy is 334. This deck has been signed by Beaman on the title card. Illustrations by Peter H. Beaman and Elizabeth Whiteley. From the Author's Note- "Deck of Cards is 52 'cards' constituting a textual and visual description of a single spring moment in Pittsburgh. The 'cards' are 'readable' in any order and should be shuffled before each reading. The narrative operates in the interactive present- the present because the 'now' is the only form of time in which action occurs with an unknown outcome; interactive because the reader, by rearranging the sequence of the text, involves in the creation of the narrative. From a narrative perspective the 'past' or 'future' lack one of those attributes- the narrative outcome must be known or it must be predetermined. Deck of Cards, involving the reader as co-author of the text, seeks also to participate the reader in the narrative as one of the characters experiencing the described events. These events are treated as occurring simultaneously in the lives of five characters: at the moment Julie steps on board her bus, Paul is already almost downtown on an earlier bus; Richard is awakening; Enid is visiting her psychiatrist and Dora is getting dressed. Because the 'real time' are simultaneous, the order of presentation is irrelevant. The characters, however recall their interlocked pasts with recollections developing a 'plot' leading to the described moment. The order of the immediate and recollected experiences is determined by the reader who, having shuffled the 'cards', has created a text which only that reader has made.".
