Hardback. Zustand: Good. Do You Believe?New York City. On cold October day, twenty-six-year-old Victoria writes a letter to Santa Claus, nothing unusual, something she did from a young age. All she wants from life is a little mystery to break her everyday routine-and she didn't have to wait long for her wish to come true. After a fantastic ice-skating dance with her mysterious Flash on Columbus Day, Victoria receives an invite to her cousin's wedding in Italy. But when her flight to Europe takes the wrong turn-one can only dream of-Victoria will find herself with a responsibility upon her shoulders that will not only test her relationship with family and friends but will also change her life. How can she find a man who disappeared twenty years ago, start a new relationship, and show that people are still good-all without revealing the existence of the Winter Lands to her loved ones? How can she prove that the Christmas spirit is very much alive and more significant than the material aspect of the holiday? But above all, how can she explain a talking bear. Clark, Bradley (illustrator).…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Time magazine reports on a remarkable renaissance of religious belief among philosophers: In a quiet revolution in thought and arguments that hardly anyone could have foreseen only two decades ago, God is making a comeback. Most intriguingly, this is happening . . . in the crisp, intellectual circles of academic philosophers. . . . Now it is more respectable among philosophers than it has been for a generation to talk about the possibility of God's existence. Relying on boldness and rigorous thought, the movers and shakers of this quiet revolution have developed their theories against the rising tide of strict empiricism. Who are these tough-minded intellectuals, and why have they embraced Christian belief? In Philosophers Who Believe several key thinkers answer this question with unusual candor, warmth and brilliance. Contributors include: Alvin Plantinga University of Notre Dame, considered the world's leading Protestant philosopher of God.Basil Mitchell Oxford University, author of such groundbreaking books as The Justification of Religious Belief.Mortimer Adler Institute for Philosophical Research, renowned for his prolific writings and his work to revive an emphasis on the Great Books in higher education.Nicholas Wolterstorff Yale University, whose innovative work has led to invitations to deliver the distinguished Wilde Lectures at Oxford and Gifford Lectures in Scotland.Richard Swinburne Oxford University, the premier rational apologist of our age.Frederick Suppe University of Maryland at College Park, a premier philosopher of science.John Rist University of Toronto, expert on the late Ancient and early Medieval periods of philosophy.Linda Zagzebski Loyola Marymount University, recognized for her work on divine foreknowledge and human freedom.Stephen Davis Claremont McKenna College, author of books on topics ranging from the nature of God to the inspiration of Scripture.Terence Penelhum University of Calgary (professor emeritus), acclaimed for research on skepticism and religious belief in the Enlightenment and post-Enlightenment eras.Nicholas Rescher University of Pittsburgh, prolific author and editor of prestigious scholarly journals. Winner of a Christianity Today book award for the original cloth edition, Philosophers Who Believe is now available in paperback. This collection of intellectual and spiritual autobiographies will be helpful--even inspirational--for students and teachers of philosophy as well as for readers who are simply curious about the connections between philosophy and Christian faith.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The Paris of the 1860s and 1870s was supposedly a brand-new city, equipped with boulevards, cafes, parks, and suburban pleasure grounds -- the birthplace of those habits of commerce and leisure that constitute modern life. Questioning those who view Impressionism solely in terms of artistic technique, T. J. Clark describes the painting of Manet, Degas, Seurat, and others as an attempt to give form to that modernity and seek out its typical representatives -- be they bar-maids, boaters, prostitutes, sightseers, or petits bourgeois lunching on the grass. The central question of The Painting of Modern Life is this: did modern painting as it came into being celebrate the consumer-oriented culture of the Paris of Napoleon I or open it to critical scrutiny? The revised edition of this classic book includes a new preface by the author.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The iconic college football coaches of the twentieth century emerged after World War II, bringing with them a military bearing and a love of war without casualties. Coach Darrell Royal's life reads like a Shakespearean tragedy, replete with victory, defeat, betrayal and sorrow. Bear Bryant of Alabama, Bud Wilkinson of Oklahoma and Darrell Royal of Texas. What they accomplished over their lifetimes as coaches could not have happened anywhere in the United States except the post-war South. From the advent of television in the mid-1950's through the desegregation of universities and athletic programs following the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Coach Royal led the conflicted life of a warrior, a father and a servant to the rich and powerful. Forbes Magazine has stated the UT-Austin athletic program is the most valuable in the country, worth an estimated 180 million dollars. The UT financial statement doesn't reveal how big money and political power overshadow the games and the young athletes who play them. In the beginning, there was sorrow and loneliness. Darrell Royal's mother, Katy, died three months after he was born, in 1924, leaving him in the hands of an inattentive father of six children and a veritable string of evil stepmothers. Darrell found his father figure and mentor in Bud Wilkinson, the courtly head coach of the mighty Oklahoma Sooners. In Norman, Darrell emulated Bud and for the first time, knew glory as an All-American player with a fiercely competitive spirit. By the early 1960's, Royal's job-hopping had landed him in Austin where the possibilities of gridiron glories remained unrealized. Royal was a perfect fit to change that. Television was bringing college football into the homes of Americans nationwide. Bryant, Wilkinson and Royal had an advantage. Each was telegenic, articulate and charismatic. The celebrity football coaches were earning their places in history by winning games but also by evolving into actors on a national stage. The fall of 1963 changed the lives of all Americans. Royal's Longhorns, ranked number two in the Associated Press, defeated Oklahoma, ranked number one, and went on to an undefeated season and Texas' first ever national championship. Scarcely a month later, also in Dallas, President Kennedy was assassinated. His successor was a Texan -Lyndon Baines Johnson. Royal's life was going to be influenced in ways he could scarcely imagine and certainly couldn't control. Texas has always been a provocative political environment. A Texas politician has to yell long and loud to get noticed in the vastness of the State. Since winners migrate to other winners, post-1963, Darrell and Edith Royal were on everyone's A list for political and social events. The oligarchs who called the shots at UT also made it clear to Coach Royal. They didn't want any coloreds on their football team. While Royal coached the 1969 Longhorns to another national championship, the team regrettably was dubbed, the last lily white national championship team. Eventually, the tightrope Royal was being forced to walk began to wobble uncontrollably. It was the spring of 1974 before Royal finally landed a black student-athlete to whom he could point with pride. The young man was Earl Campbell, the Tyler Rose. Bryant, Wilkinson and Royal are gone now. There are statues and street names and even campus stadiums named after them. The game they knew and coached is gone as well. As a result, we are left with the historical perspective they gave us, punctuated by the agonizing undercurrents that changed the game and changed a nation.…
