For the first time, these two essential books on George Orwell have
been brought together under one cover. "The Unknown Orwell
describes the first thirty years of Orwell's life--his
childhood, the years at Eton and in Burma, and the struggles to
become a writer. "Orwell: The Transformation
carries us forward into the crucial years 1933 to 1937 in which
Eric Blair, minor novelist, became George Orwell, a powerful writer
with a view, a mission, and a message.
"Julian Bell" explores the life of a younger member, and sole poet,
of the Bloomsbury Group, the most important community of British
writers and intellectuals in the twentieth century, which includes
Virginia Woolf (Julian's aunt), E. M. Forster, the economist John
Maynard Keynes, and the art critic Roger Fry. This biography draws
upon the expanding archives on Bloomsbury to present Julian's life
more completely and more personally than has been done previously.
It is an intense and profound exploration of personal, sexual,
intellectual, political, and literary life in England between the
two world wars. Through Julian, the book provides important
insights on Virginia Woolf, his mother Vanessa Bell, and other
members of the Bloomsbury Group. Taking us from London to China to
Spain during its civil war, the book is also the ultimately
heartbreaking story of one young man's life.
Canonical Theism is a post-Protestant vision for the renewal of
both theology and church. The editors call for the retrieval and
redeployment of the full range of materials, persons, and practices
that make up the canonical heritage of the church, including
scripture, doctrine, sacred image, saints, sacraments, and more.
The central thesis of the work is that the good and life-giving
Holy Spirit has equipped the church with not only a canon of
scripture but also with a rich canonical heritage of materials,
persons, and practices. However, much of the latter has been
ignored or cast aside. This unplumbed resource of canonical
heritage waits for the church to rediscover its wealth. With a bold
set of thirty theses, the authors chart and defend that mine of
opportunity. They then invite the entire church to explore the
benefits of their discoveries.
This ambitious book offers insights to be integrated into the
church body, renewing the faith that nourished converts, created
saints, and upheld martyrs across the years.

Within March 5th 2008 and April 3rd 2009, the All Share index of
the Nigerian Stock Exchange dropped by 69.94%. The decline (though
at varying levels) was also witnessed among emerging and developed
stock markets. While various factors could be responsible for the
performance observed, this study examined the role of selected
emerging and developed stock markets on the performance of the
Nigerian stock exchange. The philosophy of the study is premised on
the increasing linkage of financial markets across the globe and
the likely implication of such interdependence on their
performance. Within the context of financial crisis, the major
findings from the study were in two folds: first, the Nigerian
stock exchange was more integrated to the developed stock markets
during the crisis period hence, declining performance observed
during the period studied in the Nigerian stock market, can be
attributed to the financial crisis. Lastly, contrary to the role
that counter cyclical policies are expected to play in stabilizing
business circles, the Nigerian stock market was more responsive to
oil market policy adjustments than to the monetary policy actions
during the financial crisis.
