First published in 1986. This book analyses, at an introductory
level, the four main and competing political interpretations of the
cause of unemployment and the future of paid work - social
democracy, free market liberalism, the disciplinary state, and
utopian socialism. Considered together these four interpretations
are highly revealing - and challenging. They raise considerable
doubts about the viability or desirability of policies design to
'get the jobless back to work'. Keane and Owens' central argument
is that the post-war policy of full male employment, as well as its
politic, economic and social preconditions, are not repeatable,
Starting with Keynes and Beveridge, they explain how and why full
employment welfare states developed in Britain and the US, and how
they had in turn been replaced by the 'strong state, free market'
programmes of Thatcher and Reagan. By focusing on an issue which
was, and still is, at the heart of political debate, the book
provides a lucid and approachable guide to four key strands of
political thought it Britain and the US. It will be an ideal
introductory text for students of politics, sociology and
economics.

365 daily readings from one of the greatest theologians of the
Puritan movement John Owen (1616-1683) was one of the best known
and most prolific English church leaders of the 17th Century. His
writings have been a challenge and encouragement to believers
throughout the centuries since and have influenced many leaders in
the church today. In this attractively bound faux leather book, Lee
Gatiss has selected a reading from John Owen's writings for each
day of the year. Theologically sharp, these readings will help you
to see the majesty of God anew. Includes some extracts from Owen
that are not currently in print anywhere else, and freshly
translations of his Latin works. Each reading is just a page long
but is packed with theological insight. Spending a little time with
this giant of the faith every day will help you to delight in the
joy of the gospel again.

Spirit's role in prayer, assuring salvation, and equipping the

A picture-book journey through the Boundary Waters Canoe Area
Wilderness in winter, snowshoeing the frozen lakes and silent
forest with family, encountering the wonders of northern wildlife
in the cold season In winter the Boundary Waters, way up north in
Minnesota, is not the same place you canoed last summer-but still
it beckons and welcomes you. Grab a pack, strap on snowshoes, make
a path (Oh! they take some getting used to!), and venture out
across the frozen lakes and through the snowy woods. The vast
wintery world here is so still and quiet, you might think you're
all alone-but no! Who made these tracks? A deer? A hare? A fox? And
far off there's a musher, making tracks with his sled dogs. It's a
magical place. The bright sun brilliant on the snow, the sparkling
silence-wait, is that a wolf calling? Try to answer! And when the
dark descends, the stars and pine trees holding up the night, your
nose gets cold and it's back to camp, to your warm winter tent,
where Father feeds the stove with wood you gathered, Mother
snuggles into her big sleeping bag, and you curl up in the fire's
glow and know that in your dreams and memories you will return
again and again to this one winter up north. A wintery adventure
that unfolds in pictures, John Owens's delightful book gives
readers a chance to discover-or rediscover-another season full of
wonder in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.
London, 1942: the Blitz is over but the war rages on. With the
country still fighting for its existence, a young girl takes to the
skies... After her mother was killed in an air raid, Anna Cooper
was sent to live with her uncle, the Ravenmaster at the Tower of
London. Now, he too is dead. His dying wish was for Anna to be the
next Ravenmaster, keeper of the birds who, according to legend,
guard the fate of the kingdom. But the Tower authorities won't
stand for a female Ravenmaster, let alone one so young. Denied her
destiny, Anna is desperate to escape the Tower and she bluffs her
way into the glamorous - and dangerous - world of the Women's
Auxiliary Air Force. But no matter how high she flies, Anna can't
escape her past... nor the secret that it conceals. A secret that
could change the course of the war.
This collection of 25 readings, compiled by Nancy Guthrie, features
writings and sermons from classic and contemporary theologians and
Bible teachers, each encouraging thoughtful contemplation of the
cross and resurrection during the Easter season.
Death of Death in the Death of Christ was John Owen's first
masterpiece. Written from seven years of studying and reflection by
one of the greatest minds in theological history, its exploration
into the Scriptural perspective on the doctrine of universal
redemption is yet to be answered or paralleled. This is the
original text with a new layout. It is fully subtitled which makes
it more accessible to a new generation of readers.
A modern edition of John Owen's classic work, presented in easy to
read modern font, not a scan.
