Beyond the Hills That Beckon

By: Ray Long

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Various folk who enjoyed reading The Hills That Beckon questioned the author, When are you going to write a sequel? After much consideration Mr. Long decided to comply with their requests. His first narrative was confined to the Poosey Ridge area of Madison County, Kentucky.The sequel goes beyond the borders written about in the first book and includes other areas hence, the title Beyond The Hills That Beckon. This writing differs by focusing on other families and events in the region rather than only the authors family. The reader will be reintroduced to the Poosey Ridge location from a perspective not addressed in The Hills That Beckon.

Evil Revisited

Responses and Reconsiderations

By: David Ray Griffin

In this book Griffin responds to critiques of his earlier work--God, Power, and Evil: A Process Theodicy--and discusses ways in which his position has changed in the intervening years. In so doing, he examines the problem of evil, theodicy, and philosophical theology, and contrasts traditional theism and process theism with regard to the question of omnipotence.

Water Witching U.S.A.

By: Evon Z. Vogt,Ray Hyman

Despite advanced technology, the practice of water witching—using a forked stick to indicate an underground source of water—persists in both rural and urban areas. Water Witching U.S.A. is a lively look at "dowsing," full of personal accounts, historical background, and data from controlled experiments and a nationwide survey. This study includes a collection of photographs, drawings, and historical woodcuts showing the tools, techniques, and early instances of dowsing, as well as cross-sectional views contrasting the dowser's explanation of groundwater with the geologist's.

Against Academia

The History of the Popular Culture Association/American Culture Association and the Popular Culture Movement, 1967-1988

By: Ray Broadus Browne

The history of the study of popular culture in American academia since its (re)introduction in 1967 is filled with misunderstanding and opposition. From the first, proponents of the study of this major portion of American culture made clear that they were interested in making popular culture a supplement to the usual courses in such fields as literature, sociology, history, philosophy, and the other humanities and social sciences; nobody proposed that study of popular culture replace the other disciplines, but many suggested that it was time to reexamine the accepted courses and see if they were still viable. Opposition to the status quo always causes anxiety and opposition, but when the issues are clarified, often opposition and anxiety melt away, as they now are doing. Anxiety and opposition were generated on another level when people in academic and curricular power felt that voices were being raised that questioned their credentials and control. They flailed out with every argument at their command, generally thinking only of their self interest and not that of the students and the future of academic education. Generally this wall of opposition has also been breached. The Popular Culture Association and its many friends and backers in academia, in the United States and abroad, has demonstrated that the study of our everyday and dominant culure should be taken seriously, understandingly and analytically, just as all other aspects of culture should be. Taken that way the study can be useful in developing better educated and responsible citizens from the cradle to the grave. The humanities and social sciences are too important for any portion--especially the majority portion--to be ignored or downplayed. The study of popular culture constitutes a significant and important element, one that can be ignored only at peril.

Handbook on Urban Development in China

By: Ray Yep,June Wang,Thomas Johnson

The trajectory and logic of urban development in post-Mao China have been shaped and defined by the contention between domestic and global capital, central and local state and social actors of different class status and endowment. This urban transformation process of historic proportion entails new rules for distribution and negotiation, novel perceptions of citizenship, as well as room for unprecedented spontaneity and creativity. Based on original research by leading experts, this book offers an updated and nuanced analysis of the new logic of urban governance and its implications.

Great Tales of Irish Fantasy

By: Ray Bradbury,Jacqueline Carey,Cecilia Dart-Thornton

Irish magic comes alive in this collection—“a sheer delight of grand storytelling” —featuring Ray Bradbury, Tanith Lee, Charles de Lint and others (Publishers Weekly).

Greeley, Emerald Magic contains fourteen wonderful stories of legend and lore, including: In Ray Bradbury’s “A Woman Is a Fast Moving Picnic”, a group of pub regulars set out to discover the truth behind a local song and answer that age-old question: Just how fast does a person sink in a bog? “The Isle of Women” by Jacqueline Carey tell the tale of a warrior sailing for vengeance who happens upon an island ruled by a woman like no other. And when a woman finds her grandfather’s diary, she unleashes the specter of an old debt in Tanith Lee’s “Speir-Bhan”.

Keep Believing: Finding God in Your Deepest Struggles (2019 Edition)

By: Dr. Ray Pritchard

The biggest barrier to faith is life itself. Divorce. Cancer. Infertility. Death. There are times in our lives in which God seems very far away. We don't understand His silence. We only feel the intensity of our pain and the echoing question of 'why?' The Bible declares that God is good, but can we still believe this when our lives are falling apart? In Keep Believing, Dr. Pritchard affirms what the Bible declares: that God is good and His mercy endures forever. This is true regardless of our moment-by-moment experience. God has provided comfort in our times of struggle and healing in our times of hurt through the balm of His Word. You believed in the light of day; will you still believe at midnight? Search the Scriptures with Dr. Pritchard for words of encouragement and hope. Put your confidence in the God who sorrowfully watched His Son suffer at Calvary for your benefit. Know that the same loving heavenly Father has everything completely under control. He is with you and longs to comfort you as you struggle through your hard times. Take a tell-tale look at your devotion to the Lord and His never-ending love and commitment to you in Keep Believing. You served God in the sunshine; will you now serve him in the shadows?

The 100 Most Entertaining Predictions About the 21St Century

By: William Ray

The 100 Most Entertaining Predictions About the 21st Century is a fun look at the predictions wacky and wise that have been made about our new century and millennium. The turning of the 21st century has always attracted predictions, from predictors of all sorts (sci-fi writers, psychics, seers, inventors, modern scientists, and even a future prime minister.) They have felt compelled to tell us what was going to happen at the dawn of the third millennium. Now that were there, we thought it would be fun to research what has been predicted about our day and see how the predictions turned out. The result is The 100 Most Entertaining Predictions About the 21st Century. Some of the predictions are wacky (see Underwear Converted into Candy ). Some are surprisingly accurate (see Modern Gas Stations ). On some the jury is still out: Will hovercraft replace the automobile? (see Highways Give Way to Hovercraft). There was a multitude of predictions to choose from. We narrowed them down to the 100 we found the most interesting. Enjoy!

God, Power, and Evil

A Process Theodicy

By: David Ray Griffin

The baffling age-old question, if there is a good God, why is there evil in the world? has troubled ordinary people and great thinkers for centuries. God, Power, and Evil illuminates the issues by providing both a critical historical survey of theodicy as presented in the works of major Western philosophers and theologians--Plato, Aristotle, Plotinus, Augustine, Aquinas, Spinoza, Luther, Calvin, Leibniz, Barth, John Hick, James Ross, Fackenheim, Brunner, Berkeley, Albert Knudson, E. S. Brighton, and others--and a brilliant constructive statement of an understanding of theodicy written from the perspective of the process philosophical and theological thought inspired primarily by Alfred North Whitehead and Charles Hartshorne.

Inequality And Global Supra-surplus Capitalism

By: E Ray Canterbery

This book is written as a sequel to John Kenneth Galbraith's The Affluent Society, and provides a theoretical framework, for the first time, for surpra-surplus capitalism.Conventional economics has the income and wealth distributions as 'givens'. This assumption immediately excludes such distributions from economic and social concern. Occasionally, economists such as Kenneth Boulding and even earlier, Michal Kalecki, have attempted to develop alternative perspectives in which such distributions are integral to the story and therefore have implications for public policy. At the same time, conventional microeconomics is a theory of price only in which economic efficiency (in an engineering sense) is the only value to be optimized. The income or wealth distributions are given as constraints. Mathematically, the constraints thereafter become invisible; they have no further role to play. The choices that are presumed to be made are neither inhibited nor facilitated by a household's position in the income or wealth distributions.This volume will explore problems with conventional theory and policy, but its main thrust comprises a theory of supra-surplus capitalism, applicable to both developed and developing countries, and its relation to inequalities worldwide.

Negotiating the Modern

Orientalism and Indianness in the Anglophone World

By: Amit Ray

This book explicates long-standing literary celebrations of 'India' and 'Indian-ness' by charting a cultural history of Indianness in the Anglophone world, locating moments (in intellectual, religious and cultural history) where India and Indianness are offered up as solutions to modern moral, ethical and political questions in the 'West.' Beginning in the early 1800s, South Asians actively seek to occupy and modify spaces created by the scholarly discourses of Orientalism: the study of the East (‘Orient’) via Western (‘European’) epistemological frameworks. Tracing the varying fortunes of Orientalist scholars from the inception of British rule, this study charts the work of key Indologists in the colonial era. The rhetorical constructions of East and West deployed by both colonizer and colonized, as well as attempts to synthesize or transcend such constructions, became crucial to conceptions of the ‘modern.’ Eventually, Indian desire for political sovereignty together with the deeply racialized formations of imperialism produced a shift in the dialogic relationship between South Asia and Europe that had been initiated and sustained by orientalists. This impetus pushed scholarly discourse about India in Europe, North America and elsewhere, out of what had been a direct role in politics and theology and into high ‘Literary’ culture.

Telling it to the Judge

Taking Native History to Court

By: Arthur J. Ray

In 1973, the Supreme Court's historic Calder decision on the Nisga'a community's title suit in British Columbia launched the Native rights litigation era in Canada. Legal claims have raised questions with significant historical implications, such as, "What treaty rights have survived in various parts of Canada? What is the scope of Aboriginal title? Who are the Métis, where do they live, and what is the nature of their culture and their rights?" Arthur Ray's extensive knowledge in the history of the fur trade and Native economic history brought him into the courts as an expert witness in the mid-1980s. For over twenty-five years he has been a part of landmark litigation concerning treaty rights, Aboriginal title, and Métis rights. In Telling It to the Judge, Ray recalls lengthy courtroom battles over lines of evidence, historical interpretation, and philosophies of history, reflecting on the problems inherent in teaching history in the adversarial courtroom setting. Told with charm and based on extensive experience, Telling It to the Judge is a unique narrative of courtroom strategy in the effort to obtain constitutional recognition of Aboriginal and treaty rights.
