Michael Coogan
The Old Testament: A Very Short Introduction

2008 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Eminent biblical scholar Michael Coogan offers here a wide-ranging and stimulating exploration of the Old Testament, illuminating its importance as history, literature, and sacred text. Coogan explains the differences between the Bible of Jewish tradition (the `Hebrew Bible`) and the Old Testament of Christianity and also examines the different contents of the Bibles used by Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox Christians, and Protestants. He looks at the rise of modern biblical scholarship as well as the recovery of ancient Near Eastern literatures and their significance for biblical interpretation. Coogan explores the use of invented dialogue and historical fiction in the Old Testament, the presence of mythic elements in apparently historical accounts, and the relationship of ancient Israelite myths to those of their neighbors. He also shows how non-biblical evidence, such as archaeological findings, has placed the Old Testament in a larger and more illuminating context. … [detailed...]

The Older I Get, the Less I Care

2008 y.
Publisher: Andrews McMeel Publishing
Description: Teresa Roberts Logan, cartoonist and nationally touring standup comic, brings the funny back to being female after opening for Jerry Seinfeld, Ellen DeGeneres, Drew Carey, and more. For each of the 3.1 billion females in this world, there will come a time when gravity is no longer a friend. Thankfully, as comedian and author Teresa Roberts Logan points out, with this realization-and substantive amounts of chocolate and caffeine-also comes the freedom to care less about the quirky neuroses and habitual hang-ups that riddle our feminine existence. Logan presents pithy insights into the female psyche-each accompanied by a full-color illustration humorously depicting exactly those things we care less about. From snotty waiters and memory loss to trying to be one of those thong-butt babes. [detailed...]

The Oldest We`ve Ever Been: Seven True Stories of Midlife Transitions

2008 y.
Publisher: University of Arizona Press
Description: I had this idea of where I should be in middle age, an image that had been born in the 1950s when I’d been a child watching Lassie on TV. As outdated as it was, that blurred snapshot somewhere at the back of my mind actually did have a green lawn, a house, a picket fence, and two kids: a boy and a girl. In the corner, there was my husband in a suit coming home from work. And was that me at the front door in an apron? Did every woman my age have a similar snapshot in their mental scrapbook? In the decades since Lassie, maybe I’d managed to update the picture some. I’d erased the apron and added a home office instead. Still, there it was. And here I was, nowhere near it. In this engaging collection, editor Maud Lavin has enlisted seven talented writers to share their stories of midlife transitions, reflecting the unpredictable challenges and unexpected graces that characterize this multilayered stage of life. The writers—Kim Larsen, Calvin Forbes, Ellen McMahon, Allan deSouza, Peggy… [detailed...]

Publisher: PublicAffairs
Description: Hailed as `the most dramatic and comprehensive account` of the early years of Russian capitalism ( New York Times Book Review ) David Hoffman, former Moscow bureau chief for the Washington Post , sheds light onto the hiddenlives of Russia`s most feared power brokers: the oligarchs. Focusing on six of these cunning and ruthless men--Alexander Smolensky, Yuri Luzhkov, Anatoly Chubais, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, Boris Berezovsky, and Vladimir Gusinsky--Hoffman reveals how a few players rose to thepinnacle of Russia`s new capitalism. The oligarchs started small. Before perestroika, they lived the lives of Soviet citizens, stuck in a dead-end system, cramped apartments, and long bread lines. But as Communism loosened, they found gaps in the economy and reaped their first fortunes by getting their hands on fast money. As the government weakened and their businesses flourished, they grew greedier. The state auctioned off its own assets, and they grabbed the biggest oil… [detailed...]

She entitled the series Omega Suites --alluding to the final letter of the Greek alphabet as a metaphor for the end and for the unusually luxurious accommodations found there. Seemingly an examination of the death penalty, her austere, haunting images are actually metaphors that question the attitude to this issue found throughout America, where, although 70 percent of citizens support the death penalty, a few states are currently reconsidering their laws and imposing moratoriums or stays for the more that 3,000 Americans currently on death row, who will wait an average of 10 years before being executed. Icy and compelling, the photographs present a clearly defined and hermetically sealed concept of the world which is characterized by taking extreme measures against the… [detailed...]
