This book addresses the challenges of living together after empire
in many post-colonial cities. It is organized in two sections. The
first section focuses on efforts by people of multiple faiths to
live together within their contexts, including such efforts within
a neighborhood in urban Manchester; the array of attempts at
creating multi-faith spaces for worship across the globe; and
initiatives to commemorate divisive conflict together in Northern
Ireland. The second section utilizes particular postcolonial
methods to illuminate pressing issues within specific
contexts-including women's leadership in an indigenous denomination
in the variegated African landscape, and baptism and discipleship
among Dalit communities in India. In the context of growing
multiculturalism in the West, this volume offers a postcolonial
theological resource, challenging the epistemologies in the Western
academy.

The Oxford Handbook of Head and Neck Anatomy offers a succinct yet
comprehensive quick reference guide with over 400 schematic colour
and grey-scale illustrations. It tackles the notoriously difficult
three-dimensional anatomy of the head and neck and provides
essential clinico-anatomical correlates, etymology and background
insight to help the reader easily remember complex features.
Written and illustrated throughout with an awareness of the
difficulties faced in linking the anatomy on the page with real
cases seen in day-to-day clinical practice, this handbook is an
essential resource for trainees and students at all levels.

“These miraculous poems of everyday matter magnified by forty
reveal our world in all its pristine glory – reminiscent of Pablo
Neruda’s household odes, but stranger. Her sketches of waterfalls
are extraordinary, as if we are witnessing the birth of water and
every inch hallucinatory. Her magnifying eye probes the roots of
matter and spirit, where they intertwine and dance with light.
Tsvetanka Elenkova has a mystic’s eye, an inventive vision honed
with surgical precision.” —Pascale Petit “In Magnification
Forty, Tsvetanka Elenkova turns her piercing poetic intelligence
upon the small things of the world. She lifts them up to us in all
their revelatory and spiritual power. Elenkova is a visionary, who
makes quietness speak and who reminds us that the miracle of
embodiment is realised not only in the exceptional but in what’s
humble and quotidian. This deeply mindful book is a call for us to
pay attention to what we experience. It’s also a masterclass in
the lucid and economical poetics that have made Elenkova into a
leading European poet.” —Fiona Sampson

"The world according to Tsvetanka Elenkova is both lucid and
hieratic. In it, a lover’s eye is `a disc on a chain /with the
god of the sun /the window casts on the wall’; but love itself is
an `Altar’ on which the lovers are `lying crosswise’. The
poet’s own narrative eye keeps shifting viewpoint – and
perspective – not for the sake of it but to create depth and
meaning: `The other side of perspective /is dimension’. It’s
all expressed with economy and the utmost clarity: yet that clarity
is deceptive. These poems, too, depend on your point of view:
`Reflection is capture’ indeed, and reflection may be not only
the untroubled mirror image, but the pause and re-handling of
meditation. Another way to say all this is that Elenkova is a
religious mystic; […] She lives in the world of cars, mobile
phones and city parks, and has an imagination stuffed with cultural
riches, […b]ut she also lives in a poetic world […] of
religious mystery, mortality, love and desire. This mystical verse
dives repeatedly into the given, and discovers there a world of
symbol and – perhaps above all – movement. It is not Gerard
Manley Hopkins’s search for `inscape’, but instead an
apprehension that from moment to moment forms itself into symbolic
codes – and then releases those codes into the material, sensual
world." —Fiona Sampson
