The Devil - Darren Oldridge

Why do the innocent suffer in a world created by a loving God? Does this mean that God cannot prevent this suffering, despite His supposed omnipotence? Or is God not loving after all? This in brief is ''the problem of evil''. The Devil provides one solution to this problem: his rebellion against God and hatred of His works is responsible for evil. The Christian Devil has fascinated writers and theologians since the time of the New Testament, and inspired many dramatic and haunting works of art. Today he remains a potent image in popular culture. The Devil: A Very Short Introduction presents an introduction to the Devil in the history of ideas and the lives of real people. Darren Oldridge shows us that he is a more important figure in western history than is often appreciated, and also a richly complex and contradictory one. Oldridge focuses on three main themes: the idea of the Devil being integral to western thought from the early Middle Ages to the beginnings of modernity; the principle of ''demonic inversion'' (the idea that as the eternal leader of the opposition, the Devil represents the mirror image of goodness); and the multiplicity and instability of ideas ...

Joyful Revolution - Diana Skelton

At the age of 20, Mary Rabagliati (1942-1992) quit a secretarial job in London to move to an emergency housing camp in France without running water or any sanitation facilities. It was 1962 when, amongst that bleak squalor and deprivation, she began a lifelong commitment to anti-poverty work and fighting for the human rights of people on the margins of society, working towards a vision that no one should have to live a life trapped by poverty. She joined fellow trailblazer Joseph Wresinski to build the foundations for ATD Fourth World to develop into an international human rights movement. Particularly committed to the girls and women whose horizons were drastically curtailed by hardship, early motherhood, and domestic violence, Mary''s work took her across continents: living alongside families in poverty; speaking out at the United Nations; and helping to spark a joyful revolution for social justice.Drawing from her own personal experiences with Mary as mentor and housemate, Diana Skelton''s deeply insightful and enriching biography Joyful Revolution provides the opportunity for Mary''s distinctive voice to be heard in her native language for the first time, allowing people who never met this remarkable woman to discover her story.

Tommy Douglas and the Quest for Medicare in Canada - Gregory Marchildon

How and why was universal health coverage implemented so early in a poverty-stricken province in Canada? Why was its design so faithfully replicated in the national standards that ultimately shaped Medicare across the rest of Canada? Seeking to answer these questions, Tommy Douglas and the Quest for Medicare in Canada explores the history of universal health care through the life of Canadian politician Tommy Douglas, identifying the pivotal moments and decisions that led to the establishment of Medicare in Canada. The book traces the origins of Medicare back to the 1930s Depression and its devastating impact on the Prairie populations. Marchildon examines how Tommy Douglas and a new generation of reformers, radicalized by the Depression, prioritized socialized health care. The book reveals how, as the provincial party leader, Douglas leveraged support from both local and external allies to rapidly implement universal hospital insurance and lay the groundwork for a new health system. Despite strong opposition from physician and business lobbies, Douglas continued to pressure the government for federal cost-sharing of universal health coverage. Drawing on archival sources including speeches, television broadcasts, and cabinet documents, Tommy Douglas and the Quest for Medicare in Canada illuminates how Douglas’s vision, leadership, and coalition-building ...

Mindhunter - Mark Olshaker, John E. Douglas - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Jak proniknout do mysli sériového vraha. Audiokniha dle knižní předlohy úspěšného stejnojmenného seriálu. John Douglas, agent FBI, se na konci 70. let ve snaze pomoci rozvoji kriminalistiky odhodlal ponořit do psychologie vraždy a přiblížit se znepokojivě blízko skutečným netvorům. Pátral po některých z nejznámějších a nejsadističtějších zločinců naší doby: po vrazích, kteří nechvalně prosluli jako „Trailside Killer“ v San Franciscu nebo „Atlantský vrah dětí“. Desítky sériových vrahů konfrontoval, vedl s nimi rozhovory a zkoumal jejich psychiku – patřili mezi ně Charles Manson, Richard Speck a mnozí další. Studoval je – vstupoval do jejich myslí – aby pochopil jejich motivy. John Douglas je muž, který se stal předlohou legendárního filmového agenta FBI Jacka Crawforda v thrillerech Červený drak a Mlčení jehňátek, a muž, který předznamenal nový věk v behaviorální vědě a kriminálním profilování. John Douglas sloužil u policie přes dvacet let, a teprve když odešel ze služby, mohl konečně povyprávět svůj jedinečný příběh. Seriál Mindhunter, který vznikl na základě knihy, patří mezi jeden z nejsledovanějších a nejlépe hodnocených seriálů na ČSFD a podílel se na něm i známý režisér David Fincher (Sedm, Klub rváčů, Zodiac, Vetřelec 3).

Bosie - Douglas Murray

WITH A NEW FOREWORD AND REVISED INTRODUCTION''A superb biography ... full of compassion, perception'' Roger Lewis, The Times ''I love this book. Douglas Murray is a genius'' Rupert EverettLord Alfred Douglas, known as ''Bosie'', son of the Marquess of Queensberry, was known as one of the most beautiful young men of his generation. Aged twenty-one he met and became the lover and subsequent obsession of Oscar Wilde.Their relationship caused a scandal in 1895 when Wilde took Queensberry, Douglas''s aggressive father, to court for libel. When the details of their relationship were aired in court, Wilde was convicted of gross indecency and later imprisoned.Wilde''s story is well known, but this is the first book to tell it fully from Douglas''s perspective. Written, and originally published in 2000, with access to never-before-seen papers , Bosie explores the contradictions, tensions and turmoils of Douglas''s life with Wilde and beyond as a poet, husband and father.This compelling biography uncovers the life of one of the most notorious figures in literary history, and its course from gilded beautiful youth to semi-reclusive outcast, at the time of Douglas''s death in 1945.
