Beyond Surgery: Injury, Healing, and Religion at an Ethiopian Hospital
by Anita HannigOver the past few decades, maternal childbirth injuries have become a potent symbol of Western biomedical intervention in Africa, affecting over one million women across the global south. Western-funded hospitals have sprung up, offering surgical sutures that ostensibly allow women who suffer from obstetric fistula to return to their communities in full health. Journalists, NGO staff, celebrities, and some physicians have crafted a stock narrative around this injury, depicting afflicted women as victims of a backward culture who have their fortunes dramatically reversed by Western aid. With Beyond Surgery, medical anthropologist Anita Hannig unsettles this picture for the first time and reveals the complicated truth behind the idea of biomedical intervention as quick-fix salvation. Through her in-depth ethnography of two repair and rehabilitation centers operating in Ethiopia, Hannig takes the reader deep into a world inside hospital walls, where women recount stories of loss and belonging, shame and delight. As she chronicles the lived experiences of fistula patients in clinical treatment, Hannig explores the danger of labeling “culture” the culprit, showing how this common argument ignores the larger problem of insufficient medical access in rural Africa. Beyond Surgery portrays the complex social outcomes of surgery in an effort to deepen our understanding of medical missions in Africa, expose cultural biases, and clear the path toward more effective ways of delivering care to those who need it most.
Beyond Suspicion: The Moral Clash between Rootedness and Progressive Liberalism (University of California Series in Jewish History and Cultures #4)
by Nissim MizrachiA free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. For more than four decades, socially disadvantaged Israeli Mizrahim—descendants of Jews from Middle Eastern and North African communities—have continuously supported right-wing political parties. Scholars, left-wing politicians, and activists tend to view Mizrahim as reacting against their structural exclusion, or more crudely as acting against their own interests, but Nissim Mizrachi locates the source of their so-called paradoxical behavior within the limitations of the liberal grammar by which their outlook and behavior are read. In Beyond Suspicion, Mizrachi turns the direction of inquiry back on itself, contrasting liberal grammar—which values autonomy, equality, and universal reason and morality as the only authentic human choice—with the grammar of rootedness, in which the self is experienced through a web of relational commitments, temporal ties, and codes of collective identity. Recognizing rootedness as a fundamental need and desire for belonging is necessary to understand both scholarly and political rifts in Israel and throughout the world.
Beyond the Analogical Imagination: The Theological And Cultural Vision Of David Tracy
by Barnabas Palfrey Andreas Telser
Beyond the Ashes
by Karen BarnettWhere better to rebuild and face one's fears than in 1906 San Francisco, a city rising from the ashes? Ruby Marshall, a young widow, is certain she'll discover new purpose assisting her brother Robert with his cancer research, but she doesn't anticipate finding new love. Dr. Gerald Larkspur dreams of filling his empty home with family, but he'd always hoped it would be a wife and children. In the aftermath of the great earthquake, the rooms are overflowing with extended family and friends left homeless by the disaster. When Robert's widowed sister arrives, the close quarters seem close indeed. Ruby and Gerald's fledgling romance is put at risk when Gerald develops symptoms of the very disease they're striving to cure. Together they must ask--is it worth a second chance at love when time might be short?

Beyond the Battle: A Man's Guide to His Identity in Christ in an Oversexualized World
by Noah FilipiakTired of Trying Harder?Most books on beating temptation teach men how to try harder, think better, and manage their behavior into submission. The problem is, no matter how strong we are today, the battle continues tomorrow. In Beyond the Battle, author and pastor Noah Filipiak shows you why symptom-based behavior management approaches offer short-term solutions and unpacks the key to gospel-centered, long-term victory, helping you win the war against sin and temptation.Beyond the Battle is an accessible, effective, go-to resource for individual or small group use that brings freedom from sexual temptations and connects men deeply to Jesus. All men have the common ground of facing some level of temptation or discontent--whether married or single--and this book guides them past this frustration and into freedom. Filipiak addresses marriage, singleness, and sexual temptation in a culture where 55% of married men and 70% of single men look at porn at least once a month and over half of all marriages end in divorce.Refreshingly different from other books that promise help in addressing sexual temptation, Beyond the Battle turns typical "purity" strategies on their head by addressing head-on our sense of self-entitlement and our self-seeking tendencies, showing how the mercy of Jesus uniquely satisfies our unmet longings. As you read and journey through the optional 43-day devotional included in the appendix, you will experience a rich exposition of the Bible and the transforming power of Jesus. You'll discover the fullness of who you are in Christ and unpack how the mercy of the gospel trumps our insecurities and transforms our lives.
Beyond the Binary: Gender and Legal Personhood in Islamic Law
by Saadia YacoobA free ebook version of this title is available through Luminos, University of California Press's Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. One of the most hotly debated issues in contemporary Muslim ethics is the status of women in Islamic law. Whereas Muslim conservatives argue that gender-differentiated legal rulings reflect complementary gender roles, Muslim feminists argue that Islamic law has subordinated women and is thus in need of reform. The shared assumption on both sides, however, is that gender fundamentally shapes an individual’s legal status. Beyond the Binary explores an expansive cross section of topics in ninth- to twelfth-century Hanafi legal thought, ranging from sexual crimes to consent to marriage, to show that early Muslim jurists imagined a world built not on a binary distinction between male and female but on multiple intersecting hierarchies of gender, age, enslavement, lineage, class, and other social roles. Saadia Yacoob offers a restorative reading of Islamic law, arguing that its intersectional and relational understanding of legal personhood offers a productive space for Muslim feminists to move beyond critique and instead think with and through the Islamic legal tradition.

Beyond the Brady Bunch
by Debbie Alsdorf Ray AlsdorfA message of hope for blended families, from a couple who have been in the trenches - and made it. Blending a family is far more messy and complicated than any television show portrays. Beyond the Brady Bunch is a heart book, not a how-to book. Christians who find themselves in the midst of step-family life often feel hopeless and far from God, struggling with grief and unforgiveness. From personal experience the authors have found that all the how-to steps in the world don't work if there isn't first a heart change. Speaking with honesty and vulnerability they share their own mistakes and how God dealt with their hearts. The book will help stretch hearts, minds and homes past the image of "perfect" and another "happily ever after" into the hope of God's promise to restore, heal and rebuild.
Beyond the Break
by Heather BuchtaFor fans of Sarah Dessen and Jenny Han, Beyond the Break is a funny and gorgeous debut about a girl experiencing her first love. Well, second, if you count her faith... and that's where things may get complicated.Manhattan Beach native Lovette has two rules in life. One: no surfing. Not after her brother's accident. Two: absolutely, no dating. And going into her junior year of high school, she's pretty happy with that arrangement. She has friends, her church youth group, and God to fall back on when things get dicey. But after Jake Evans walks into her life, following these two simple rules gets a lot more complicated. Jake is the boy from Lovette's childhood who grew up. Handsome and sweet, he unlocks the part of Lovette that wants nothing more than to surf the waves again. And as their relationship grows, she begins to question what it means to be faithful: to her family, to God, but mostly, to herself. Told with humor and heart, Heather Buchta delivers a sparkling debut that asks the question: Can you fall in love, be a teenager, and also be a good Christian?
Beyond the Breath
by Marshall GlickmanBeyond the Breath is one of the first books to give a complete overview and description of sensation based vipassana meditation, the form of mediation thought of as the original method of meditation as used by the Buddha 2,500 years ago. This form of meditation, brought to the West by S. N. Geoneka, provides a means to experience emotions directly and nonverbally-accessing the mind through the body. One of the main principles of this school of meditation is that meditation alone is not sufficient practice, but that it must be combined with a whole-life and ethical commitment. M. Glickman's approach is unique-he takes a mediation practice deeply rooted within a historic Buddhist framework, and gives it a modern-day, scientific spin-he presents sensation based viapassana meditaiton and Buddhist principles in 20th-century language, secularizing ideas that may sound exotic, off-putting, or out-dated. Glickman's passion for the topic, as well as his great understanding of Buddhist concepts, make this an inspiring read.

Beyond the Cherokee Trail
by Lisa CarterWhen Linden Birchfield arrives in the Snowbird Cherokee community to organize the 180th commemoration of the Trail of Tears, she runs head on--literally--into arrogant former army sniper Walker Crowe. A descendant of the Cherokee who evaded deportation by hiding in the rugged Snowbird Mountains, Walker believes no good can result from stirring up the animosity with the white Appalachian residents whose ancestors looted the tribal lands so long ago. Though at odds over the commemoration, Linden and Walker must unite against an unseen threat to derail the festival. Together they face an enemy whose implacable hatred can be traced to the events of the Trail, a dark chapter in America's westward expansion. When called to resurrect his sniper abilities, Walker must thwart the enemy who threatens the modern-day inhabitants of tiny Cartridge Cove--and targets the woman who has captured his heart.
Beyond the Conceivable: Studies on Germany, Nazism, and the Holocaust (Weimar and Now: German Cultural Criticism #20)
by Dan DinerThe major essays of Dan Diner, who is widely read and quoted in Germany and Israel, are finally collected in an English edition. They reflect the author’s belief that the Holocaust transcends traditional patterns of historical understanding and requires an epistemologically distinct approach. One can no longer assume that actors as well as historians are operating in the same conceptual universe, sharing the same criteria of rational discourse. This is particularly true of victims and perpetrators, whose memories shape the distortions of historical narrative in ways often diametrically opposed.The essays are divided into three groups. The first group talks about anti-Semitism in the context of the 1930s and the ideologies that drove the Nazi regime. The second group concentrates on the almost unbelievably different perceptions of the "Final Solution," with particularly illuminating discussions of the Judenrat, or Jewish council. The third group considers the Holocaust as the subject of narrative and historical memory. Diner focuses above all on perspectives: the very notions of rationality and irrationality are seen to be changeable, depending on who is applying them. And because neither rational nor irrational motives can be universally assigned to participants in the Holocaust, Diner proposes, from the perspective of the victims, the idea of the counterrational. His work is directed toward developing a theory of Holocaust historiography and offers, clearly and coherently, the highest level of reflection on these problems.
Beyond the Cross and the Switchblade
by David WilkersonFrom the Book Jacket: uthor, David Wilkerson, what has happened since its publication in the early 1960s. Their gratifying interest in his story and his ministry has prompted him to bring his many readers up-to-date with a fitting sequel-and BEYOND THE CROSS AND THE SWITCHBLADE is just the book we've all been waiting for. Here is a nostalgic look back at memorable characters from the original book and a brief review of what they're doing today. We are treated to a behind-the- scenes look at the making of the movie version of THE CROSS AND THE SWITCHBLADE, starring Pat Boone, and find that, surprisingly, the venture brought fame but not fortune. The publicity accompanying the book and the movie turned the skinny preacher from Pennsylvania into a reluctant celebrity, and eventually forced him to withdraw from the rat race for a while. Only then was he able to place things in their proper perspective-waiting upon "Holy Ghost timing," as he puts it-thus renewing his person-to-person ministry that had been temporarily sidetracked by other commitments. The past decade was filled with many ups and downs for the entire Wilkerson family, and David frankly recounts it all: his wife Gwen's gallant bout with cancer, his brother Jerry's now- conquered battle with alcoholism. Yet BEYOND THE CROSS AND THE SWITCHBLADE is far more than reminiscences of THE CROSS AND THE SWITCHBLADE; it is a very now book in which David Wilkerson speaks directly to the most pressing needs of today. A large portion of the book is concerned with the phenomenon of drugs in the suburbs. Unfortunately, in the years since David Wilkerson labored for the Lord in the back alleys of the ghettos, drug use has spread to the backyards of suburbia. A chapter is devoted to the related subject of the forgotten teen-agers, those good, clean-cut kids of relative affluence who nevertheless have many serious problems and who need to come to Jesus just as desperately as their more publicized contemporaries, the juvenile delinquents. All in all, David Wilkerson's Teen Challenge is constantly redirecting itself to meet these new challenges. Throughout, spiritual lessons intermingle with heartwarming human interest episodes to imbue BEYOND THE CROSS AND THE SWITCHBLADE with that singular, "can't put it down" quality that marks a sure-fire best seller.

Beyond the Crossroads: The Devil and the Blues Tradition (New Directions in Southern Studies)
by Adam GussowThe devil is the most charismatic and important figure in the blues tradition. He's not just the music's namesake ("the devil's music"), but a shadowy presence who haunts an imagined Mississippi crossroads where, it is claimed, Delta bluesman Robert Johnson traded away his soul in exchange for extraordinary prowess on the guitar. Yet, as scholar and musician Adam Gussow argues, there is much more to the story of the devil and the blues than these cliched understandings.In this groundbreaking study, Gussow takes the full measure of the devil's presence. Working from original transcriptions of more than 125 recordings released during the past ninety years, Gussow explores the varied uses to which black southern blues people have put this trouble-sowing, love-wrecking, but also empowering figure. The book culminates with a bold reinterpretation of Johnson's music and a provocative investigation of the way in which the citizens of Clarksdale, Mississippi, managed to rebrand a commercial hub as "the crossroads" in 1999, claiming Johnson and the devil as their own.
