Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

The author argues that Baptist theologian James William McClendon
Jr's articulation of the 'baptist' vision entails an account of the
real presence of Christ's body and blood that is internally
faithful to that vision. Furthermore, such an account of real
presence suggests that the 'baptist' vision is itself a
contribution of Baptists to ecumenical Christianity. The argument
is set in the context of some contemporary Baptist engagement with
ecumenical Christianity, particularly historic Catholic
Christianity. COMMENDATION "Aaron James shows how an ecumenically
minded Baptist theologian can take up this theme with creativity,
grace, and an inspiring desire to lift up our hearts toward the
wondrous "sacrament of unity" and "sacrament of charity". He
powerfully reminds us why this may well be the most important
conversation that Christians can have today." - Matthew Levering,
University of Dayton, Ohio, USA
First published in 1942 (and retailing at 1s 6d) in response to the
growing use of factory-made foods and essences, Wild Berries,
Fruits, Nuts & Flowers demonstrated how tasty dishes could be
made using the wild fruits and flowers of the countryside. Today
there is a growing interest in foraging. People have become more
connected with nature and are heading into the countryside and
collecting edible plants, mushrooms and fruits. This is combined
with an increasing desire to eat local seasonal produce in the
interests of sustainability. This timely reissue of a classic of
its kind is the perfect gift for the modern forager. It features
101 recipes for using wild berries, fruits, nuts, flowers,
mushrooms and seaweed. Nothing is known about the original author,
but this edition has a foreword by Barbara Segall, who suggested
republishing this book.

implications of technology for an aging workforce, and health and

reshaping work processes, job content, work settings, communication

engineering (industrial and human factors), the health sciences,
gerontology/geriatrics, and public health. It is also a useful
resource for government and policy leaders, as well as workers and
managers in the public and private sectors.
