He journeyed farther than his near contemporary Marco Polo, though
Muslim scholar Ibn Battuta (1304-c. 1377) is barely remembered at
all compared to that legendary traveler. But Battuta's story is
just as fascinating, as this 1829 translation of his diaries, by
British Orientalist REV. SAMUEL LEE (1783 -1852), demonstrates.
Embarking upon what would eventually be a 27-year pilgrimage,
Battuta traveled through East Africa, the Middle East, India,
China, and beyond, bringing him to most of the 14th-century Islamic
world. Rife with beautiful descriptions of the exotic peoples he
met and landscapes he saw, this little--known classic of medieval
literature will enthrall scholars of Islamic history and armchair
travelers alike.
The nine chapters in this book, along with a critical introduction,
address complex theological issues relating to structural
inequalities of our society, exacerbated by the experience of the
COVID-19 pandemic. Pastoral theology as an academic discipline is
not a value-free enterprise. This book strives to speak against all
forms of injustice and to advocate for those who suffer under
existing structural inequalities because such a liberative and
social transformative task constitutes the fundamental work of
pastoral theology. Each chapter in this book analyses how private
problems of individuals are occurring within the immediate world of
experience with public issues historically, socially, and
politically. As a whole, this book addresses racial injustice,
ableism, foster family care, and issues faced by Christian churches
during the COVID-19 pandemic. The chapters in this book were
originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Pastoral
Theology.
This English edition of the work of the Arab traveller usually
known as Ibn Battuta (1304-68/9) was translated by Rev. Samuel Lee
(1783-1852), Professor of Arabic in the University of Cambridge,
from 'the abridged Arabic manuscript copies, preserved in the
Public Library of Cambridge', and published in 1829. Lee's work
sparked widespread European interest in Ibn Battuta, who had set
off from his native Morocco on a pilgrimage to Mecca in 1325, and
kept travelling for the next twenty-four years, reaching as far
east as China and as far south as Zanzibar, as well as visiting
parts of Spain and the Byzantine Empire. On his return, he dictated
an account of his travels; Lee translated an abridged version, but
fuller versions were later discovered. There is doubt as to whether
Ibn Battuta actually saw everything he described, but this account
gives a fascinating world-view from the medieval period.
Cardio-Hepatology: Connections Between Hepatic and Cardiovascular
Disease provides a direct relationship between the cardiac and
hepatic pathologies providing the link between the heart and liver
and showing how liver diseases predispose to impairment in heart
functioning and vice versa. Considering the growing number of
patients living (and living longer) with heart failure and/or
congenital heart disease, it is important to know when and how to
test for liver disease in this population, how to interpret
abnormal test results, and what management is appropriate. Coverage
includes what should be done for patients to limit, avoid, or
postpone the impairment in the liver functioning induced by heart
diseases and the impairment in the heart functioning induced by
liver diseases, on the basis of scientific-exposed evidence and
pathophysiology knowledge. This comprehensive, extended review of
the medical literature is perfect for researchers interested in the
connection between cardiology and hepatology as well as clinicians
making therapeutic decisions for patients suffering from heart or
liver chronic diseases.
Since the mid-sixteenth century, Christianity has been notably
active in Japan, and yet Japan remains one of the least-
evangelized nations in the world. The Japanese and Christianity is
an attempt to work out an appropriate response to the question,
"What are the main reasons why Christianity has not yet succeeded
in Japan?" It investigates various factors, i.e. the societal,
cultural, historical, missiological and political dimensions of
Christianity in Japan, in searching for possible answers.
Generally, Christianity's lack of quantitative success must be
understood in the context of all of these factors, particularly;
the worldview and political factors are the most salient ones. This
research is based on extended literature study and draws from
multiple sources across various disciplines, sources that are in
English and generally based upon the work of both Japanese and
Western scholars.

Uchimura Kanzo (1861-1930) is one of the most prominent Japanese
Christian thinkers, the world has ever known. Uchimura Kanzo
influenced many Japanese political figures as well as well known
writers, among them the writers Masamune Hakucho, Mushanokoji
Saneatsu, and Arimisha Takeo, who in 1910 founded the influential
Shirakaba "White Birch," a journal that served as a vehicle for
their humanitarian ideals. Uchimura Kanzo believed that a Roman
Catholicism is only good for the Roman culture, and Anglican
Christianity emerged from English culture, and a Lutheran emerged
from Germany and German culture. Why then not have to have a
Japanese Christianity that is fully compatible to both Japan and
Jesus. Uchimura Kanzo is the founder of Non-Church movement:
Mukyukai. Daily Devotions with Uchimura Kanzo is a beautiful
collection of quotes from Uchimura Kanzo's writings. It is designed
to enrich the soul, broaden the mind and to offer the reader a
different way of understanding Christianity.
