subterranean stems (corms, rhizomes, stem tubers) and unmodified
subterranean stem stolons, above ground swollen stems and
hypocotyls, storage roots (tap root, lateral roots, root tubers),
and bulbs, that are eaten as conventional or functional food as
vegetables and spices, as herbal teas, and may provide a source of
food additive or neutraceuticals. This volume covers selected plant
species with edible modified stems, roots and bulbs in the families
Iridaceae, Lamiaceae, Marantaceae, Nelumbonaceae, Nyctaginaceae,

name and synonyms); common English and vernacular names; origin and
distribution; agro-ecological requirements; edible plant parts and
uses; plant botany; nutritive, medicinal and pharmacological
properties with up-to-date research findings; traditional medicinal
uses; other non-edible uses; and selected/cited references for
further reading. This volume has separate indices for scientific

This book presents the development of a theological reading
strategy in conversation with contemporary hermeneutical theories.
Using that as a model, Gen 1-11 is read as a unified text refracted
through the prism of textuality from a canonical approach.
To preach the Word of God boringly, lifelessly or indifferently is
a travesty of biblical preaching. Contemporary preaching appears
powerless because the preacher is unctionless. For preaching to
transform lives and not merely to transmit knowledge, preachers
need the unction of the Holy Spirit. In Power in Preaching, Johnson
Lim examines the idea that a sermon powered by logic and rhetoric
and accompanied by erudition and eloquence can be inspiring and
interesting; but only a sermon powered by the Spirit is life
transforming. Lim also explores the authority of a preacher, axioms
of preaching, hermeneutical protocols for reading biblical texts,
and preaching in (post) modernity. By suggesting a better way to
preach, and giving some practical tips on maximizing a preacher's
oratorical powers, Dr. Lim tries to lead preachers out of the
Wilderness of dull, insipid and boring preaching into the Promised
Land of dynamic, enthusiastic and vibrant preaching.
