\n\"\"The book of Revelation: a biography<\/a> \/Timothy Beal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This title provides a concise cultural history of the book of Revelation and the apocalyptic imaginations it has fueled. The author demonstrates how the book is a multimedia constellation of stories and images that mutate and evolve as they take hold in new contexts, and how Revelation is reinvented in the hearts and minds of each new generation.<\/p>\n

The Cross: history, art, and controversy<\/a> \/Robin M. Jensen.
\n<\/strong>This title examines the two-thousand-year evolution of the cross as an idea and an artifact, illuminating the controversies of this central symbol of Christianity. This title focuses on the cross in painting and literature, the quest for the \u201ctrue cross\u201d in Jerusalem, and the symbol\u2019s role in conflicts from the Crusades to wars of colonial conquest.<\/p>\n

Faith and fossils: the Bible, creation, and evolution<\/a> \/Lester L. Grabbe.
\n<\/strong>This title examines the Bible in its ancient context and explores its meaning\u00a0in light of emerging scientific evidence and shows how science and faith intersect in questions about human origins.<\/p>\n

\"\"Ghost dancing with colonialism: decolonization and indigenous rights at the Supreme Court of Canada<\/a> \/Grace Li Xiu Woo.
\n<\/strong>This title casts explanatory light on ongoing tensions between Canada and Indigenous peoples by assessing that Indigenous peoples continue to argue that they are still being colonized using a binary model that distinguishes colonial from postcolonial legality. The author argues that two legal paradigms governed the expansion of the British Empire, one based on popular consent, the other on conquest and the power to command.<\/p>\n

Pagans and Christians in the city: culture wars from the Tiber to the Potomac<\/a> \/Steven D. Smith.
\n<\/strong>This title argues that today\u2019s culture wars can be seen as a reprise of the basic antagonism that pitted pagans against Christians in the Roman Empire. By examining the historical conflict, the author explores how the same competing ideas continue today.<\/p>\n

Potlatch as pedagogy: learning through ceremony<\/a> \/Sara Florence Davidson and Robert Davidson.
\n<\/strong>Written by the daughter of Haida artist Robert Davidson, this title tells the story of the Haida tradition of the potlatch and how the author saw the traditions of the Haida practiced by her father, holistic, built on relationships, practical, and continuous, could be integrated into contemporary educational practices.<\/p>\n

\"\"Video game law: everything you need to know about legal and business issues in the game industry<\/a> \/by S. Gregory Boyd, Brian Pyne, Sean F. Kane; foreword by Richard A. Bartle.
\n<\/strong>This title is aimed at game developers and industry professionals who want to better understand the industry or are in need of expert legal guidance by breaking down the laws and legal concepts such as copyright infringement, piracy and security breaches.<\/p>\n

Women and the Society of Biblical Literature<\/a> \/Nicole L. Tilford.
\n<\/strong>In this volume essays from more than thirty leading women biblical scholars from around the world reflect on the accomplishments and challenges that women have encountered in the Society of Biblical Literature over the last 125 years.<\/p>\n

Words have a past: the English language, colonialism, and the newspapers of Indian boarding schools<\/a> \/Jane Griffith.
\n<\/strong>This book traces colonial narratives of language, time, and place from the nineteenth-century to the present day, post-Truth and Reconciliation Commission through an examination of newspapers produced by white settlers, government officials and Indigenous parents.<\/p>\n
