Why Hell?: Three Christian Views Critically Examined
by Steve GreggMost people believe that hell is the final state of the condemned following the final judgment. At the same time, many people cannot comprehend why God created hell for the unsaved. Respected church fathers held a variety of views dating back to the early centuries of the church. This book explains views on why hell exists: unending suffering, the annihilation of the unrepentant, and the rehabilitation of the lost. Most Christians are unaware of the scriptural basis for each of these positions. Why Hell? is meant to educate the interested reader without advocating for any one point of view. The following are some of the book's features:Biblical vocabulary of hell and positions held throughout early Christian historyPositive cases presented on three perspectives: traditionalist, conditionalist, and restorationistCritiques of each viewHelpful charts at the back of the book that summarize and cross-examine the arguments for each viewSteve Gregg provides food for thought for both trained theologians and serious Christian readers who want all the data and then consider for themselves the consequences of three Christian perspectives on hell.

Word-of-Mouth in Contemporary Hollywood (Routledge Studies in Media and Cultural Industries)
by Simon HewittWord-of-Mouth in Contemporary Hollywood provides a unique insight into the potential for online communication to enable audiences to exert a greater impact on film industrial practices than ever before. In an overarching analysis of contemporary Hollywood film financing, marketing, distribution, and exhibition practices, Simon Hewitt recontextualises word-of-mouth in light of social media and examines the growing impact of audience participation. Using a ‘Bourdieuconomic’ approach, he applies qualitative research methods to better understand the contemporary Hollywood film audience, the contemporary Hollywood film industry, and the mechanisms that connect the two. The book explores new film financing mechanisms that incorporate fans into the packages used to secure production funds. It assesses the role of ‘Grassroots Intermediaries’ in contemporary film marketing campaigns. It critiques ‘democratic’ crowdsourced methods of film distribution, and finally, it considers the possible future of Hollywood film exhibition. By helping to bridge the gap between the gift economy and commodity culture, this book will appeal to students and scholars of media industry studies, media finance and economics, fan and audience studies, film studies, film history, and media marketing.

Write Yourself In: The Definitive Guide to Writing Successful College Admissions Essays
by Eric TiplerWrite authentic, memorable college essays that will help you get into the right school for you with this guidebook from a veteran college admissions expert.Every spring, over one million high school juniors embark on an annual rite of passage: applying to college. And with college admission rates at an all-time low, getting into a competitive school is now tougher than ever. At the top schools, a strong transcript and great test scores will get your application noticed, but it&’s your essays, and the personal story that they highlight, that will get you admitted. But often, students don&’t know where to start. Teens fret over topics because they don&’t know what college admissions officers are looking for. They bend over backwards to write what they think colleges want to read, instead of telling their authentic story—which is what admissions officers actually want—in a way that will resonate with their readers. They also struggle because college essays, which are narrative, first-person, and introspective require a different set of skills from academic, expository writing they&’ve been learning for years in the classroom. Seasoned college admissions expert and educator Eric Tipler has seen this firsthand. Teens and their parents spend countless, anxiety-filled hours crafting and refining essays that are often lackluster. In Write Yourself In, Tipler meets students where they are, and provides comprehensive actionable advice in a warm and conversational tone. He demonstrates how to craft a winning essay, one that is authentic, vulnerable, and demonstrative of qualities like personal growth and emotional maturity. Instead of formulas, Write Yourself In gives students step-by-step processes for brainstorming, outlining, writing, and revising essays. It encourages them to seek out feedback at key points in the process, something Tipler has found to be vital to helping students produce their best writing. Further, the book includes sidebars that teach essential components of good storytelling, a &“secret weapon&” in the admissions process. In addition to the admissions essay, Write Yourself In also covers the most common supplemental essays on topics like community, diversity, openness to others&’ viewpoints, and why their school is a good fit for the student scholarship essays, as well as scholarship essays. Tipler includes sections that address current topics like the widespread use of ChatGPT and the discussion of race in the admissions essay, a facet of the student&’s application that will have newfound importance given the Supreme Court decision on affirmative action. Written with both the parent and teen in mind, Write Yourself In is the go-to handbook for writing a great college essay.

The Book of Pet Love and Loss: Words of Comfort and Wisdom from Remarkable People
by Sara BaderA powerful collection of quotations by writers, leaders, and legends on the pain of losing a pet and overcoming grief.An animal&’s love is deep, uncomplicated, unconditional, and forgiving. &“Affection without ambivalence&” is how Sigmund Freud described the connection. &“No matter how awful the day, or how awful I am behaving at any given moment, George doesn&’t care,&” writes journalist John Dickerson. &“He finds me smoldering in my chair and dashes to my lap.&” Our lives are intricately intertwined with our pets, and together, over time, we establish rituals that are as steady as a metronome. It&’s no wonder the grief is crushing when they depart—even those who&’ve had time to prepare describe feeling stunned, devastated, and cracked in two. &“We were a bit broken up over the death of our black Persian cat,&” crime novelist Raymond Chandler confessed. &“When I say a bit broken up, I am being conventional. For us it was a tragedy.&” Nobel Prize–winning author V. S. Naipaul described the experience as &“calamitous,&” and writer May Sarton called it a &“volcanic eruption of woe.&” Poet Emily Dickinson was so bereft she asked for help: &“Carlo died,&” she announced in a letter to her friend Thomas Wentworth Higginson in 1866. &“Would you instruct me now?&” The Book of Pet Love and Loss is a collection of quotations—poignant thoughts and memories discovered in letters, journals, diaries, memoirs, and other original sources—from beloved cultural figures who understood this singular experience so deeply, they felt compelled to write about it. This book dignifies the profound connection we share with our animal companions, but it also provides solace as mourners document their heartache over the loss of their cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, and other animals—even, in the case of Pablo Neruda, a mongoose. Their comforting and wise words are what every animal lover needs on this journey of heartbreak and healing.
