Karl Barth and the Incarnation

Christology and the Humility of God

By: Darren Sumner

This work demonstrates the significance of Karl Barth's Christology by examining it in the context of his orientation toward the classical tradition - an orientation that was both critical and sympathetic. To compare this Christology with the doctrine's history, Sumner suggests first that the Chalcedonian portrait of the incarnation is conceputally vulnerable at a number of points. By recasting the doctrine in actualist terms - the history of Jesus' lived existence as God's fulfillment of His covenant with creatures, rather than a metaphysical uniting of natures - Barth is able to move beyond problems inherent in the tradition. Despite a number of formal and material differences, however, Barth's position coheres with the intent of the ancient councils and ought to be judged as orthodox. Barth's great contribution to Christology is in the unapologetic affirmation of 'the humanity of God'.

Criminology

A Sociological Introduction

By: Eamonn Carrabine,Pamela Cox,Pete Fussey,Dick Hobbs,Nigel South,Darren Thiel,Jackie Turton

Building on the success of the second edition, Criminology: A Sociological Introduction offers a comprehensive overview of the study of criminology, from early theoretical perspectives to pressing contemporary issues such as the globalization of crime, crimes against the environment and state crime. Authored by an internationally renowned and experienced group of authors in the Sociology department at Essex University, this is a truly international criminology text that delves into areas that other texts may only reference. This new edition will have increased coverage of psychosocial theory, as well as more consideration of the social, political and economic contexts of crime in the post-financial-crisis world. Focusing on emerging areas in global criminology, such as green crime, state crime and cyber crime, this book is essential reading for criminology students looking to expand their understanding of crime and the world in which they live.

Criminology

A Sociological Introduction

By: Eamon Carrabine,Pam Cox,Isabel Crowhurst,Anna Di Ronco,Pete Fussey,Anna Sergi,Nigel South,Darren Thiel,Jackie Turton

Comprehensive, critical and accessible, Criminology: A Sociological Introduction offers an authoritative overview of the study of criminology, from early theoretical perspectives to pressing contemporary issues such as the globalisation of crime, crimes against the environment, terrorism and cybercrime. Authored by an internationally renowned and experienced group of authors in the Department of Sociology at the University of Essex, this is a truly international criminology text that delves into areas that other texts may only reference. It includes substantive chapters on the following topics: • Histories of crime; • Theoretical approaches to crime and the issue of social change; • Victims and victimisation; • Crime, emotion and social psychology; • Drugs, alcohol, health and crime; • Criminal justice and the sociology of punishment; • Green criminology; • Crime and the media; • Terrorism, state crime and human rights. The new edition fuses global perspectives in criminology from the contexts of post-Brexit Britain and America in the age of Trump, and from the Global South. It contains new chapters on cybercrime; crimes of the powerful; organised crime; life-course approaches to understanding delinquency and desistance; and futures of crime, control and criminology. Each chapter includes a series of critical thinking questions, suggestions for further study and a list of useful websites and resources. The book also contains a glossary of the criminological terms and concepts used in the book. It is the perfect text for students looking for a broad, critical and international introduction to criminology, and it is essential reading for those looking to expand their ‘criminological imagination’.

The Ranger Ideal Volume 2

Texas Rangers in the Hall of Fame, 1874-1930

By: Darren L. Ivey

They say everything is bigger in Texas, and the Lone Star State can certainly boast of immense ranches, vast oil fields, enormous cowboy hats, and larger-than-life heroes. Among the greatest of the latter are the iconic Texas Rangers, a service that has existed, in one form or another, since 1823. Established in Waco in 1968, the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame and Museum continues to honor these legendary symbols of Texas and the American West. While upholding a proud heritage of duty and sacrifice, even men who wear the cinco peso badge can have their own champions. Thirty-one individuals—whose lives span more than two centuries—have been enshrined in the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame. In The Ranger Ideal Volume 2: Texas Rangers in the Hall of Fame, 1874-1930, Darren L. Ivey presents capsule biographies of the twelve inductees who served Texas in the latter half of the nineteenth century. Ivey begins with John B. Jones, who directed his Rangers through their development from state troops to professional lawmen; then covers Leander H. McNelly, John B. Armstrong, James B. Gillett, Jesse Lee Hall, George W. Baylor, Bryan Marsh, and Ira Aten—the men who were responsible for some of the Rangers’ most legendary feats. Ivey concludes with James A. Brooks, William J. McDonald, John R. Hughes, and John H. Rogers, the “Four Great Captains” who guided the Texas Rangers into the twentieth century.

The Twelve Forces of Movement

By: Darren St John Sumner

This to a published scientific article advertised on this website, known as G-500: The Twelve Forces of Movement. It describes in detail through a series of pictures and diagrams, the importance of movement as a constant force in mechanics and dynamics, how movement uses momentum and motion to interact with bodies and objects, how they are formed into various shapes and patterns, and how they can become independent and mobile from movement. The article utilises gas giants like worlds similar to the outer planets in our very own solar system (e.g Jupiter, Neptune) in elaborate illustrations to represent the bodies and objects at work, explaining the principles involved. I have decided to use these types of planets in part to present the forces and reactions as an alternative to the typical and intimidating mathematical formulas and equations that are displayed in other such journals; the other reason is that gas giants are colourful metaphors to ease and entice the reader instead of the standard and sometimes common mono-coloured spheres, or basic symbols. This is done so that all people even with a vague interest in science, physics, and similar fields can understand it in a lucid manner, without feeling alienated, perplexed, or overwhelmed. It is also done to show the importance and significance this field has. On each page there are five planets; one is always labelled Movement and shown to be separate from the other planets that are pictured nearby. The others are labelled Momentum, Motion, and Mobile; this is to depict the reactions involved when Movement plays it role. At the bottom of every page is a rectangular caption which describes in words what is happening in the above diagrams. This is to assist in the overall understanding of what I am addressing to the reader. The documentation may appear rather simplistic, but this is part of a hopeful first step to a series of similar literatures that I plan to do in the future to bolster my theorems.
