Transcendent in America

Hindu-inspired Meditation Movements as New Religion

By: Lola Williamson

Yoga, karma, meditation, guru--these terms, once obscure, are now a part of the American lexicon. Combining Hinduism with Western concepts and values, a new hybrid form of religion has developed in the United States over the past century. Williamson traces the history of various Hindu-inspired movements in America, and argues that together they constitute a discrete category of religious practice, a distinct and identifiable form of new religion.

Flaming?

The Peculiar Theopolitics of Fire and Desire in Black Male Gospel Performance

By: Alisha Lola Jones

Examining the spectrum of "flamboyant" gender expression of male vocalists in historically black churches, Flaming?: The Peculiar Theo-Politics of Fire and Desire in Black Male Gospel Performance observes the relationship between these men, their congregations, and the heteronormativity of theology they perform.

The Impact of Space Experiments on Our Knowledge of the Physics of the Universe

By: Franco Giovannelli,Lola Sabau-Graziati

Space experiments have opened practically all electromagnetic windows on the Universe. A discussion of the most important results obtained with multi-frequency photonic astrophysics experiments will provide new input to advance our knowledge of physics, very often in its more extreme conditions. A multitude of high quality data across the whole electromagnetic spectrum came at the scientific community's disposal a few years after the beginning of the Space Era. With these data we are attempting to explain the physics governing the Universe and its origin, which continues to be a matter of the greatest curiosity for humanity. In this book we describe the latest steps of the investigations born with the advent of space experiments. We highlight the most important results, identify unsolved problems, and comment on perspectives we can reasonably expect. This book aims to provide a useful tool for the reader who is not specialized in space astrophysics and for students. Therefore, the book is written in the form of a review with a still reasonable length, taking into account the complexity of the arguments discussed. We do not claim to present a complete picture of the physics governing the Universe, but have rather selected particular topics for a more thorough discussion. A cross section of essays on historical, modern, and philosophical topics is offered and combined with personal views into tricks of the space astrophysics trade.
