Being Faithful: Christian Commitment in Modern Society
This is a critical assessment of Catholic Faith in the modern world.This book explores how the Christian life is lived in a pluralistic situation where different contexts of belonging give rise to different moral challenges.While it is characteristic of modern life to exist in a postmodern situation where there is an erosion of comprehensive systems of meaning, we still live today in contexts of belonging.We still seek to gather out of the fragments of modern life the sustenance of a network of belonging, belief and practice which comprise a faithful life.The construction of such a life, not only for us, but for others, serves as the framework for our moral commitments.Furthermore, sustaining and transforming social frameworks which shape various aspects of human life form the life task of adult Christians. "Ecclesiological Investigations" brings together quality research and inspiring debates in ecclesiology worldwide from a network of international scholars, research centres and projects in the field.

Being with Older People : A Systemic Approach
The authors of this volume take as their starting point "striking moments" in their practice with older people, their families and other practitioners.They integrate these with current systemic thinking to offer new perspectives on working with older people in a range of physical health, mental health and social care contexts.This book is practice led and contains a wealth of examples that will be familiar both to practitioners working with older people and to older people themselves and their families.The authors, all experienced clinicians, place an emphasis on how systemic and narrative approaches might relate to these real world dilemmas and point to ways forward in working with older people in a world where social isolation, ageism and discrimination are commonplace.

From Being to Being
Characterized by genius wordplay, Oh Eun’s poems play with homophones and homonyms while keeping the wit, criticalness, and beauty we associate with Korean poetryIn their sonic play, Oh Eun's poems bounce dangerously on a tightrope of language.These are poems that in their content and form simultaneously expand the boundaries of language and delight, and in their subject matter engage with both a desire for a shared humanity while offering a biting criticism of Korean society.A controversial poet, he has received a number of the Korean literary world's biggest prizes, including the Daesan Literary Award, but also has faced criticism for his daring individuality.Brilliantly translated into a limber and tactile English by Shyun Ahn, co-translator of Kim Hyun's Glory Hole, English readers will finally have the opportunity to see why Oh Eun's style and tone set him in a school of his own.
