This book is based on an important but complicated question: How
have nonprofit human service organizations sustained themselves
over time? It documents the organizational histories of pioneering
nonprofits that have unique missions and significant longevity - in
one case, 157 years. This volume provides one of the few documented
histories of nonprofit human service organizations and includes a
cross-case analysis of the major themes that help to expand our
understanding of organizational lifecycles with respect to
organizational growth and resilience. The major themes appear in
the form of clusters of organizations that are exemplars of:
leadership (experiences of either founding or long-term executive
directors); internal operations (capacity to respond to changing
community needs); and external relations (capacity to develop
unique and/or sustained relationships with funding sources and/or
donor populations). These cases also provide students of nonprofit
management with opportunities for case-based learning that
complements the more time-limited and episodic teaching cases which
rarely provide learners with a longitudinal perspective of
nonprofit organizations. This book was originally published as a
special issue of the Journal of Evidence-Based Social Work.
With 77 readings by some of the world's great thinkers, Reading the
World is the only great ideas reader to offer a global perspective,
allowing students to explore the development of ideas across
cultures, an increasingly important approach in our diverse
society. Selections strike a balance between Western and
non-Western, classic and contemporary, verbal and visual, and
longer and shorter. The new edition features a new chapter on
Ethics & Empathy, a new casebook on Visual Arguments, 36 new
readings in total, and new guidance on identifying and avoiding
bias.
In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, popular works of
literature attracted-as they attract today-sequels, prequels,
franchises, continuations, and parodies. Sequels of all kinds
demonstrate the economic realities of the literary marketplace.
That they can do so, however, represents something fundamental
about the way that human beings process narrative information. We
crave narrative closure, but we also resist its finality, making
such closure both inevitable and inadequate in human narratives.
Many cultures have incorporated this fundamental ambiguity towards
closure in the mythic framework that fuels their narrative
imaginations. New Testaments examines both the inevitability and
the inadequacy of closure in the sequels to four major works of
literature written in England between 1660 and 1740: Paradise Lost,
The Pilgrim's Progress, Robinson Crusoe, and Pamela. Each of these
works spawned sequels that, while often very different from the
original works, connected themselves to those works work through
rhetorical strategies that can be loosely defined as figural. Such
strategies came directly from the culture's two dominant religious
narratives: the Old and the New Testaments of the Christian
Bible-two vastly dissimilar works that were universally seen as
complementary parts of a unified and coherent narrative.

Raised by devout Mormon parents, Vardis Fisher drifted from the
faith after college. Yet throughout his long career, his writing
consistently reflected Mormon thought. Beginning in the early
1930s, the public turned to Fisher's novels like Children of God to
understand the increasingly visible Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints. His striking works vaulted him into the same
literary tier as William Faulkner while his commercial success
opened the New York publishing world to many of the founding
figures in the Mormon literary canon. Michael Austin looks at
Fisher as the first prominent American author to write
sympathetically about the Church and examines his work against the
backdrop of Mormon intellectual history. Engrossing and
enlightening, Vardis Fisher illuminates the acclaimed author's
impact on Mormon culture, American letters, and the literary
tradition of the American West.

Understanding the Book of Mormon on its own terms and through its
two-way connection with the Bible Like the Hebrew Bible and the
Christian Bible, the Book of Mormon uses narratives to develop
ideas and present instruction. Michael Austin reveals how the Book
of Mormon connects itself to narratives in the Christian Bible with
many of the same tools that the New Testament used to connect
itself to the Hebrew Bible to create the Christian Bible. As Austin
shows, the canonical context for interpreting the Book of Mormon
includes the Christian Bible, the Book of Mormon itself, and other
writings and revelations that hold scriptural status in most
Restoration denominations. Austin pays particular attention to how
the Book of Mormon connects itself to the Christian Bible both to
form a new canon and to use the canonical relationship to reframe
and reinterpret biblical narratives. This canonical context
provides an important and fruitful method for interpreting the Book
of Mormon.

Music Video Games takes a look (and listen) at the popular genre of
music games - video games in which music is at the forefront of
player interaction and gameplay. With chapters on a wide variety of
music games, ranging from well-known console games such as Guitar
Hero and Rock Band to new, emerging games for smartphones and
tablets, scholars from diverse disciplines and backgrounds discuss
the history, development, and cultural impact of music games. Each
chapter investigates important themes surrounding the ways in which
we play music and play with music in video games. Starting with the
precursors to music games - including Simon, the hand-held
electronic music game from the 1980s, Michael Austin's collection
goes on to discuss issues in musicianship and performance,
authenticity and "selling out," and composing, creating, and
learning music with video games. Including a glossary and detailed
indices, Austin and his team shine a much needed light on the often
overlooked subject of music video games.
