Alcohol has been central to social, religious and personal use throughout the history. Alcohol drinking goes back almost as far as the human race does. A hundred years, therefore, may be seen as only a flash. The past century, however, has witnessed a fundamental change in dealing with alcohol problems. Hence, to give an overview of a hundred years of alcohol polices is a rather ambitious task and the contributions to this book shed only some light on the way in which alcohol policy issues have changed in this period.
This authoritative volume is relevant to both scientists and policy makers providing a state of the art in alcohol policy from different perspectives, covering both science/research/treatment and prevention practice and linking these areas.

1929. The research-worker in the individual sciences can and must give his attention solely to the known and the knowable; but the philosopher must at the same time consider the unknown and the unknowable. With this twofold vision we shall in these pages apply ourselves to some of the problems of the soul; we shall seek to elucidate them, and to solve them, so far as this is possible in the present state of our knowledge; but we shall keep our minds on the alert for the unexplained and the unsolved. Our aim will be not a vague mysticism, but that learned ignorance, that recognition of ignorance of the knowable. Contents: infinity of the soul; individual and his destiny; journey into the past; dramaturgy of life; Americanization of the soul; religion of the future;

The concept of God's two kingdoms was foundational to Luther and subsequent Lutheran theology. Since the middle of the nineteenth century, that concept has been understood primarily as a political concept. But is a political reading of the two kingdoms a perversion of Luther's teaching?
Leading Reformation scholar William Wright contends that those who read Luther politically and see in Luther a compartmentalized approach to Christian life are misreading the Reformer. Wright reassesses the original breadth of Luther's theology of the two kingdoms and the cultural contexts from which it emerged. He argues that Luther's two-kingdom worldview was not a justification for living irresponsibly on planet earth.

Scientist believe that we would not be here if it were not for three great cataclysms in the early history of Earth and of the universe. This is the first book to explore the deep connection between the events that shaped life on Earth: the 'Big Bang' that spawned an entire universe; the explosion of a supernova, which seeded the solar system with heavy elements; and the crash of a comet or asteroid that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs and clear the way for the evolution of mammals.

This book addresses two major concerns -- the place of biblical hermeneutics within the 'theological encyclopedia' and the relationship between hermeneutics and practical theology.
