Edith Stein (1891-1942), who was recently canonized, was one of the
most intriguing Catholics of the twentieth century. A Jewish
convert, an eminent philosopher, educator, and advocate for women,
she became a Discalced Carmelite nun, Sister Teresa Benedicta of
the Cross. Arrested by the Nazis she died in Auschwitz in 1942.
This volume highlights the extraordinary features of her
spirituality -- a vision that integrated her philosophical
training, her affinity for Carmelite mysticism, and her personal
identification with the way of the Cross. Edith Stein provides a
wonderful introduction to an extraordinary mind.

The complete trilogy of the last ever 'Only Fools and Horses'
episodes, originally broadcast over Christmas 1996. 'Heroes and
Villains' Del is stuck with 125 Latvian radios and a job lot of
baseball caps, while Cassandra has placed Rodney on a new sex

The dictionary expands on the original idea of Karttunen and
Lockhart to map the usage of loans in Nahuatl, by using a much
larger and diversified corpus of sources, and by including

sources enrich the colonial corpus with modern data - significantly
expanding on our knowledge on language continuity and change.
This book offers a Christian engagement with the realities of
academic life and work. Examining this topic from intellectual,
institutional and spiritual perspectives, the author explores how
the two identities - as a Christian and an academic - can both
coexist and complement one another. The author provides a 'road
map' for academics demonstrating the interaction between religious
faith and the responsibilities, challenges and opportunities of
university scholarship and teaching. Addressing questions such as
the contentious nature of religious faith in the university
environment, the expression of faith within the role of professor,
and the consequences of consecrating oneself to learning, this
pioneering and practical volume will be relevant to Christian
scholars in any academic discipline.
