The Divine Economy: How Religions Compete for Wealth, Power, and People

by Paul Seabright

A novel economic interpretation of how religions have become so powerful in the modern worldReligion in the twenty-first century is alive and well across the world, despite its apparent decline in North America and parts of Europe. Vigorous competition between and within religious movements has led to their accumulating great power and wealth. Religions in many traditions have honed their competitive strategies over thousands of years. Today, they are big business; like businesses, they must recruit, raise funds, disburse budgets, manage facilities, organize transportation, motivate employees, and get their message out. In The Divine Economy, economist Paul Seabright argues that religious movements are a special kind of business: they are platforms, bringing together communities of members who seek many different things from one another—spiritual fulfilment, friendship and marriage networks, even business opportunities. Their function as platforms, he contends, is what has allowed religions to consolidate and wield power.This power can be used for good, especially when religious movements provide their members with insurance against the shocks of modern life, and a sense of worth in their communities. It can also be used for harm: political leaders often instrumentalize religious movements for authoritarian ends, and religious leaders can exploit the trust of members to inflict sexual, emotional, financial or physical abuse, or to provoke violence against outsiders. Writing in a nonpartisan spirit, Seabright uses insights from economics to show how religion and secular society can work together in a world where some people feel no need for religion, but many continue to respond with enthusiasm to its call.

Do Women Entrepreneurs Practice a Different Kind of Entrepreneurship? (Emerald Points)

by Alison Theaker

Whilst the number of women-owned enterprises has been increasing, they account for only 35% of business ownership in the UK. The term “woman entrepreneur” is suggested to be somewhat problematic, as it seems that women simply practise entrepreneurship, challenging the preconceptions people may have about businesses run by women. Do Women Entrepreneurs Practice a Different Kind of Entrepreneurship? identifies the entrepreneurship model of successful women entrepreneurs, and if they support or diverge from mainstream definitions. Alison Theaker examines female entrepreneurs’ experiences to understand whether their entrepreneurship practices conform to existing models, and whether the concept of “success” has different meanings for such businesses than in mainstream entrepreneurial theory.

Do Your Own Thing

by Richard Phoenix

Do Your Own Thing is a full-length work of non-fiction from artist and musician Richard Phoenix detailing his experiences of the best underground arts scene you've never heard of——Do Your Own Thing, a project run by learning disability arts organisation Heart n Soul. Looking at the transformative potential of working to support creative young people make the music and art they want to, this book contributes essential new voices, reflections and considerations to the established ideas of 'Do It Yourself' culture. Phoenix's book, written with a disarming and idiosyncratic voice, asks what our often reductive understanding of DIY aesthetics might mean in light of questions about access, support and who gives permission to whom to make art, guiding us through the kind of project only spoken about in funding reports and transforming it into a polyphonic, collaborative and joyful work of art.

Doctor, Teacher, Terrorist: The Life and Legacy of Al-Qaeda Leader Ayman al-Zawahiri

by Sajjan M. Gohel

For over half a century, al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri repeatedly emerged from the shadows as a vengeful ideologue hell-bent on changing history. Dr. Sajjan M. Gohel provides the first definitive account of one of the world's most wanted terrorists. Having grown up in an illustrious Egyptian family of physicians, lawyers, clergy, and politicians, al-Zawahiri was originally destined to become a successful doctor. However, he chose to rebel against his own society which he deemed to have deviated from its religious identity. By forming his own terrorist group, al-Zawahiri dedicated his life to sedition and violent rebellion against the international order. Ayman al-Zawahiri led a life incomparable to anyone else. The Egyptian found himself in many of the places where history was being determined. His journey takes us across Egypt, Sudan, Afghanistan and Pakistan, as well as the United States and Russia. Through his close bond with Osama bin Laden, al-Zawahiri played a critical role in the evolution of al-Qaeda's ideology, recruitment, tactics, and strategy. With the deft touch of a teacher, al-Zawahiri delegated numerous murderous assignments globally. He engaged in the assassination of political leaders, sought to develop chemical and biological weapons, recruited double and triple agents, turned the tables on his enemies, and pioneered the use of new media technology to convey al-Qaeda's zealotry. In 2011, al-Zawahiri succeeded bin Laden, to become the head of al-Qaeda and sought to rebuild and reform his organisation whilst being aided by murky ties in Pakistan and Iran and his Taliban allies. Against the background of the Arab Spring and the West's departure from Afghanistan, al-Zawahiri left a deadly legacy for al-Qaeda's future for years to come.

A Documentary History of Art, Volume 1: The Middle Ages and the Renaissance

by Elizabeth Gilmore Holt

An illuminating one-volume compendium of primary documents on the art of medieval and Renaissance EuropeThis unique collection brings together notebooks, letters, treatises, and contracts dealing with the art of the Middle Ages and Renaissance, providing extraordinary insights into the personalities and conditions of the times and revealing the stylistic and philosophical concerns that evolved during these intensively creative eras. These documents, many of them available here in English for the first time, range from Raoul Glaber&’s famous 1003 treatise on the synthesis of old and new art forms to Durand&’s essay on Christian symbolism in art and the writings of Leonardo and Dürer on anatomy, perspective, and the recreation of reality. They trace how a medieval conception of life that was inspired, oriented, and dominated by the church evolved gradually into the great reawakening of the Renaissance in which humankind itself assumed primary importance in Western art.
