Reflections


Book Description

Come explore the bluebonnet-covered hills and plains of Texas, the awe-inspiring mountains of Colorado and the vast expanse and diversity of Alaska as you experience the inspiring stories of faith in the life and ministry of Vonnie and her husband Tom. Learn about the different traditions they encountered as they served as Pastors and Associate Pastors to large congregations in bustling cities, small churches in quaint towns and in a Tlinget Indian Village on Admiralty island in Alaska. During these years, they faced many challenges in their own lives and in the lives of others. It is these stories and life lessons that Vonnie shares as she draws you into the various cultures.

Silence, Scapegoats, Self-reflection


Book Description

Since the end of World War II, Nazi medical atrocities have been a topic of ambivalent reactions and debates, both in Germany and internationally: An early period of silence was followed by attempts of victims and representatives of medical organisations to describe what happened. Varying narratives developed, some of which had a stabilizing function for the identity of the profession, whereas others had a critical and de-stabilizing function. In today's international debates in the field of medical ethics, there are frequent references to Nazi medical atrocities, in particular in the context of discussions about research on human subjects, and on euthanasia. The volume analyses the narratives on Nazi medical atrocities, their historicity in different stages of post-war medicine, as well as in the international discourse on biomedical ethics.




Buddha on Wall Street


Book Description

'An original, insightful, and provocative evaluation of our economic situation today. If you wonder about the social implications of Buddhist teachings, this is an essential book.' David Loy, author Money, Sex, War, Karma. 'Lays bare the pernicious consequences of corporate capitalism and draws forth from Buddhism suggestions for creating benign alternatives conducive to true human flourishing.' Bhikkhu Bodhi, editor In the Buddha's Words. After his Enlightenment the Buddha set out to help liberate the individual and create a society free from suffering. The economic resources now exist to offer everyone decent food, shelter, work and leisure, to allow us to fulfil our potential as human beings. What is it in modern capitalism which prevents that? Can Buddhism build something better than our current economic system? Vaddhaka Linn explores these questions by examining our economic world from the moral standpoint of the Buddha.
