| 1:「Get Goodness」 | ||||
|
From the preface: This book looks at virtue as ”the power to do good” from the theological, philosophical, and poetic perspective. From a theological perspective: Long ago, Anselm defined theology as ”faith seeking understanding,” (f. 1) a definition which has endured to the present day. It would be difficult, if not impossible, for anyone to try to understand virtue or goodness without looking through some lens of faith....Get Goodness was written, in part, because my own faith was s | |||

| 2:「Why They Die」 | ||||
|
Why do civilians suffer most during times of violent conflict? Why are civilian fatalities as much as eight times higher, calculated globally for current conflicts, than military fatalities? In Why They Die, Daniel Rothbart and Karina V. Korostelina address these questions through a systematic study of civilian devastation in violent conflicts. Pushing aside the simplistic definition of war as a guns-and-blood battle between two militant groups, the authors investigate the identity politics underlyi | |||

| 5:「Police Ethics (Revised Printing)」 | ||||
|
Police Ethics: The Corruption of Noble Cause provides an examination of noble cause, how it emerges as a fundamental principle of police ethics, and how it can provide the basis for corruption. The noble cause — a commitment to ”doing something about bad people” — is a central ”ends-based” police ethic that is corrupted when officers violate the law on behalf of personally held moral values. This book is about the power that police use to do their work and how it can corrupt at th | |||

This rare collection of the late author’s writings contains several never-before-published articles and offers an in-depth look at the many facets of the Samkhya, the cosmologic doctrines of the Shaivite tradition. Daniélou provides revelations on subjects such as the science of dreams, the role of poetry and sexuality in the sacred, and the Shaivite influence on the Scythians and the Parthians. Providing a convincing argument in favor of the polytheistic approach, he explains that monotheism | |||

| 10:「C. L. R. James and Creolization」 | ||||
|
C. L. R. James (1901-1989), one of the most important intellectuals of the twentieth century, expressed his postcolonial and socialist philosophies in fiction, speeches, essays, and book-length scholarly discourses. However, the majority of academic attention given to James keeps the diverse mediums of James’s writing separate, focuses on his work as a political theorist, and subordinates his role as a fiction writer.This book, however, seeks to change such an approach to studying James. | |||
