Little, Brown Book Group Friends
Book Synopsis''Fascinating...In essence, the number and quality of our friendships may have a bigger influence on our happiness, health and mortality risk than anything else in life save for giving up smoking'' Guardian, Book of the DayFriends matter to us, and they matter more than we think. The single most surprising fact to emerge out of the medical literature over the last decade or so has been that the number and quality of the friendships we have has a bigger influence on our happiness, health and even mortality risk than anything else except giving up smoking.Robin Dunbar is the world-renowned psychologist and author who famously discovered Dunbar''s number: how our capacity for friendship is limited to around 150 people. In Friends, he looks at friendship in the round, at the way different types of friendship and family relationships intersect, or at the complex of psychological and behavioural mechanisms that underpin friendships and make themTrade ReviewA fascinating study of friendship -- Rachel Cooke * Observer *Friends offers poignant observations about how we have evolved to rely on one another for help and companionship - and how these bonds make our lives meaningful -- Clea Skopeliti * The i *A timely arrival -- Sheon Han * Atlantic *

Little, Brown Book Group The Identity Myth
Book SynopsisWe are in crisis.As a society we have never been less connected.The internet and globalisation fuel ignorance and anger, while the disconnect between people''s reality and perceived identities has never been greater.Karl Marx outlined the idea of a material ''base'' and politico-cultural ''superstructure''. According to this formula, a material reality - wealth, income, occupation - determined your politics, leisure habits, tastes, and how you made sense of the world. Today, the importance of material deprivation, in terms of threats to life, health and prosperity, are as acute as ever. But the identities apparently generated by these realities are increasingly detached from material circumstances. At the same time, different identities are needlessly conflated through a process of reeling off a list of -isms and -phobias, and are lumped together, as though these groups all somehow have something in common with one another. Th is process Trade ReviewSwift persuasively argues that economic and technological trends have amplified the obsession with identity... [He] makes a convincing argument * The Times *Swift makes a compelling case against the preoccupation with different identities of minorities, especially on the left, as he does in favour of greater focus on what unites rather than divides people in diverse societies like ours. And he offers numerous, convincing illustrations of how internally diverse in outlook, values and interest are those of the same class, colour, gender and age-group. * Jewish Chronicle *A fun and clever book * Spiked *

Book SynopsisTHE MISSING YEARS FROM THE GREATEST CRIME SAGA OF ALL TIMEThirty-five years ago, Mario Puzo’s great American tale, The Godfather, was published, and popular culture was indelibly changed. Now, in The Godfather Returns, acclaimed novelist Mark Winegardner continues the story-the years not covered in Puzo’s bestselling book or in Francis Ford Coppola’s classic films. It is 1955. Michael Corleone has won a bloody victory in the war among New York’s crime families. Now he wants to consolidate his power, save his marriage, and take his family into legitimate businesses. To do so, he must confront his most dangerous adversary yet, Nick Geraci, a former boxer who worked his way through law school as a Corleone street enforcer, and who is every bit as deadly and cunning as Michael. Their personal cold war will run from 1955 to 1962, exerting immense influence on the lives of America’s most powerful criminals and their loved ones, incl

Zondervan Habakkuk A Discourse Analysis of the Hebrew Bible
Book SynopsisDesigned for the pastor and Bible teacher, the Zondervan Exegetical Commentary on the Old Testament features today''s top Old Testament scholars and brings together commentary features rarely gathered together in one volume. With careful discourse analysis and interpretation of the Hebrew text, the authors trace the flow of argument in each Old Testament book, showing that how a biblical author says something is just as important as what they say.Commentary on each passage follows a clear structure to help readers grasp the flow and meaning of the text: The Main Idea of the Passage: A one- or two-sentence summary of the key ideas the biblical author seeks to communicate. Literary Context: A brief discussion of the relationship of the specific text to the book as a whole and to its place within the broader argument. Translation and Exegetical Outline: Commentators provide their own translations of each text, formatted to highlight its discourse strucTrade Review'Dr. Turner is to be commended for this excellent work that combines scholarly research and personal insight into Habakkuk's world. His scholarship is especially evident in detailed textual analysis and clarifying footnotes, but perhaps the most outstanding feature of the commentary is Dr. Turner's ability to present each verse as part of the overall literary context of Habakkuk in a captivating manner that is borne out of both careful study and personal experience. This is truly a wonderful addition to the Zondervan Exegetical Commentary on the Old Testament!' * KEVIN BURRIS, department chair, Bible and theology, Toccoa Fall College *'Ken Turner's work in Habakkuk is invaluable. His commentary offers discourse analysis and grammatical context to expertly support those teaching, preaching, or studying the book. The commentary's depth of insight makes it a resource I will continue to use.' * TAYLOR TURKINGTON, director, BibleEquipping.org; author, Trembling Faith *'Kenneth Turner has written a truly original and valuable commentary on Habakkuk. Readers interested in Hebrew will be pleased by the careful attention to grammar, syntax, and poetic analysis. Turner integrates this focus on text-level details with careful consideration of intertextual connections, integration with Christian theology, and even pastoral application. He insightfully avoids common exegetical pitfalls and persuasively argues for better solutions. Turner demonstrates how evangelicals can draw from the best of current scholarship while avoiding excessive focus on topics that are unfruitful for exposition in the church. Students, pastors, and scholars alike will all benefit from this important study.' * DAVID J. FULLER, assistant professor of Old Testament, Torch Trinity Graduate University, Seoul, South Korea *

Zondervan GospelDriven Ministry
Book SynopsisIn Gospel-Driven Ministry, Jared Wilson looks at the qualifications for the pastorate, addressing the notion of a call to ministry and how to identify the marks of maturity and affirm a call. In addition, he unpacks the eight core practices of pastoral ministry and offers guidance to prepare pastors for long-term, healthy ministry.Trade Review'Current and future pastors--and those who love them--need to read this book. Jared Wilson opens up the pages of Scripture and his heart as well to give us the inside scoop on pastoral work and identity. Clearly he has a heart for ministry. With a quarter century of pastoral experience under his belt, he has much to share. Writing in a warm and personal style, Wilson explores most every aspect of ministry you can think of. Replete with scriptural references and personal examples, this is a volume of practical wisdom by which every pastor can chart a voyage through the tempestuous seas of contemporary ministry with confidence. Christ-centered and gospel-focused, this book is devoid of the platitudes and easy answers found in similar pastoral guides. Jared Wilson bares his soul in this book to share not only his profound insights into shepherding but also his anxieties, fears, and failures. In other words, he points not to himself but to Jesus, who is the great shepherd of the sheep and--thank God--of every pastor as well.' * Harold L. Senkbeil, executive director emeritus, DOXOLOGY: The Lutheran Center for Spiritual Care and Counsel, author of The Care of Souls *'Gospel-Driven Ministry is an honest, practical, instructive, and comprehensive work on pastoring that I wish would have been available to me twenty-five years ago. Jared writes from a rich and robust experience in ministry, sharing his pastoral highs with humility and his pastoral lows with vulnerability. This is a refreshing contribution to those setting out on the pastoral road and for those who might be weary walking it.' * J. R. Vassar, lead pastor, Church at the Cross, Grapevine, Texas, author of Glory Hunger *'I'd recommend this book to any pastor, especially those just starting in their ministry, and any others desiring to understand what faithful leadership in God's church looks like. Saturated in the gospel-depth that has characterized his other books, Jared Wilson shows us that a church leader is not just a defender of truth but a servant of people. I was particularly moved by Jared's challenge that we represent the love of God to people who walk through our doors. What an incredible and weighty privilege. May God use this book to raise up a generation of faithful servant leaders!' * J. D. Greear, pastor, the Summit Church, president, Southern Baptist Convention *'If you know one thing about Jared, it's that he has an unwavering passion for gospel-centrality. Gospel-Driven Ministry reads like a greatest hits of Jared's wisdom and experience from years of pastoring both local congregations and local pastors. A must-have for pastors and ministry leaders who desire to keep the gospel at the core of their ministry and practice.' * Ronnie Martin, lead pastor, Substance Church, Ashland, Ohio *'Jared Wilson's new book, Gospel-Driven Ministry, represents my friend's steadfast commitment to marinate in the riches of God's grace, to steward both the wounds and joys of pastoral life, and to keep the gospel central to leaders and ministries. Jared writes with a depth beyond his years, wisdom gained after seminary, and a heart captured by the glory and grace of Jesus. Please give this book to neophytes and seasoned veterans in the ministry of the gospel.' * Scotty Smith, pastor emeritus, Christ Community Church, Franklin, Tennessee, teacher in residence, West End Community Church, Nashville, Tennessee *'Often in ministry things can be driven by pragmatics rather than principles. Rosters needs to be arranged, meetings attended, and sermons delivered. In the midst of the urgent, however, it is easy for the pastor to forget the very basis and purpose of their service. In Gospel-Driven Ministry Jared Wilson provides a timely and necessary reminder of the transformative power of the gospel as the cornerstone of all effective pastoral ministry. With the warmth and wisdom of a seasoned pastor, Wilson calls the reader to consider not only the shape of their ministry but more importantly their motivation for it.' * Malcolm Gill, director of postgraduate studies, lecturer in Greek, New Testament, and homiletics, Sydney Missionary and Bible College, Sydney, Australia *'Only an experienced pastor could write this book. It handles the vicissitudes of pastoral life and ministry with compassion. You'll feel known as you read it. But it is more than that. This book is treasure from a pastor who digs deeply when shepherding individual souls. It is wisdom for leading the whole church. If you apply its guidance, your flock will not only feel known but also be well-pastored. In fact, Jared Wilson's heart for Christ's church moved me to pastor better, and his pastoral gems showed me how to do so. Most importantly, absorbing this book will yield more of Christ in you and his church.' * Jonathan Dodson, lead pastor, City Life Church, and author of Gospel-Centered Discipleship, Here in Spirit, and Our Good Crisis *'There are certain books that pastors should read once a year to regain their gospel sanity, clarity of calling, passion for the Savior, love for their people, and a renewed sense of what their daily work is. Gospel-Driven Ministry is one of those books. It holds the gospel forward not just as preachers' core message but also as the model and motivation for who pastors should be and what they are called to do. Pastors, buy this book and put it in your yearly reading rotation.' * Paul Tripp, pastor, speaker, author *'We're in a pastoral ministry crisis. Evidence abounds--from pastors who are disqualifying themselves, to those who are burning out. Not to oversimplify matters, but I wonder if one reason for this crisis is a pastoral ministry that has become unmoored from the gospel. In Gospel-Driven Ministry, Jared Wilson, with clarity and the requisite pastoral experience, seeks to bring us back to the gospel roots that drive faithful pastoral ministry. If you are considering pastoral ministry or are in the habit of training gospel ministers, pick up this book and use it as a 'gospel primer' for ministry. If you've been in ministry for some time and are doubting yourself or your ministry, struggling to press on, pick up this book as a 'gospel refresher' for ministry. A ministry rooted in the good news of all that God is for us in Christ will magnify our triune God and encourage his people.' * Juan R. Sanchez, senior pastor, High Pointe Baptist Church, Austin, Texas *'Whether you are new pastor or a seasoned veteran of many years, Gospel-Driven Ministry will educate, instruct, and encourage you in your service to the Lord and his people. Combining personal experience, theological understanding, and a deep love for Christ's church, Jared Wilson offers timely wisdom for those called, in these challenging times, to shepherd the flock of God.' * Brian Brodersen, pastor, Calvary Chapel, Costa Mesa, California *

Yale University Press John Lockwood Kipling
Book SynopsisJohn Lockwood Kipling (18371911) started his career as an architectural sculptor at the South Kensington Museum (today the Victoria and Albert Museum). Much of his life, however, was spent in British India, where his son Rudyard was born. He taught at the Bombay School of Art and later was appointed principal of the new Mayo School of Art (today Pakistan's National College of Art and Design) as well as curator of its museum in Lahore. Over several years, Kipling toured the northern provinces of India, documenting the processes of local craftsmen, a cultural preservation project that provides a unique record of 19th-century Indian craft customs. This is the first book to explore the full spectrum of artistic, pedagogical, and archival achievements of this fascinating man of letters, demonstrating the sincerity of his work as an artist, teacher, administrator, and activist.
