Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In February 2013, Benedict XVI became the first pope in nearly 600 years to resign. In doing so, Joseph Ratzinger, the man who became Benedict, also relinquished a controversial religious career in which he was largely responsible for the Catholic Church's prodigious troubles: his scorched-earth assault on modernity and the world of ideas destroyed any hope of progress in the Church while leaving a trail of shattered lives in its wake. Daniel Gawthrop argues that Ratzinger must not be allowed diplomatic immunity from the abuse scandals.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Curiosity about his father's homeland sends American photographer Min Lin to Burma to immerse himself in its culture and build his portfolio. But it's 1988 and pro-democracy activists are trying to overthrow the military regime. Min gets caught up in the movement after falling in love with one of its leaders. When she's arrested, Min flees to the jungle and, joining the rebels, comes face-to-face with a Burmese army captain who looks exactly like him. After an explosion kills his double, Min awakes in a hospital misidentified as a hero of the regime, causing him to pose as the dead soldier for his own survival. Escaping in 1990, he returns to the US, building a new life on his growing understanding of his homosexuality, when he learns a secret about his family's history in Burma. Motivated by this knowledge decades later, Min decides to return to Burma -- now Myanmar -- to document a new wave of religious persecution and ethnonationalism. Still haunted by the events of '88, and knowing his ex-girlfriend is being released from prison, Min must come to terms with his actions while seeking the truth about the double he met on a battlefield a lifetime ago.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - - The first book to examine the ramifications of Pope Benedict's shocking resignation in February 2013, including a summary of his actions since the 1980s (prior to his becoming pope) to move the Church to the right, quashing progressives as well as the will of Vatican II, the 1960s Catholic conference that promised reform. The book also examines the Catholic Church at a crossroads in history, and how it can transform itself as it elects a new leader. (The book will include information on Benedict's successor.)- Author Daniel Gawthrop is well-informed the subject, with much to say: he believes Benedict should not be allowed diplomatic immunity from the abuse scandals that have rocked the Vatican, and suggests that the possibility of prosecution is the reason why he resigned. He also traces other issues that have dogged the Church, including women in the clergy, homosexuality, contraception, the Vatican Bank, and Benedict's support of right-wing governments at the expense of human rights.- Publicity by 45th Parallel Communications will focus on the author as a spokesperson on the issue moving forward; the newsworthiness of the subject will not end with the announcement of Benedict's successor.- Subject categories: current events; biography; religion.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Heated Rivalry for realz: a fascinating and timely examination of ice hockey through a queer lensConversations around the phenomenal success of the TV series Heated Rivalry have put a spotlight on LGBTQ+ hockey players at a cultural moment when queer and trans folk in sports are being bullied and scapegoated. When author Daniel Gawthrop laced on his first pair of skates as a twelve-year-old Peewee house league player in 1975, he never imagined he would grow up to start a gay men's hockey club. Nor that his mainstream media musings about the beauty of 'Russian Rocket' Pavel Bure would prompt 'straight' commentary by everyone from Don Cherry to The Village Voice. These stories and more form the heart of Cutting Edge, a fascinating probe into the role of gender, masculinity, and sexuality in defining--and too often demeaning--Canada's national sport.Examining the game through a queer lens, Gawthrop reveals how hockey has evolved from the bastion of straight white male machismo it used to be into a sport where women and players of all ethnicities are welcome and where gender-diverse people now have safe places to play. At the same time, hockey's powers that be--from scandal-ridden Hockey Canada to the overly cautious NHL--have been reluctant to embrace change, especially in light of the growing social pushback against queers in sport.And then there's Heated Rivalry, whose unexpected mainstream success has led to questions about whether it will encourage queer professional players to finally come out, all while introducing the sport to new generations of fans. With great insight and verve, Cutting Edge explores this phenomenon and more, pointing the way to a better, more modern, and more inclusive kind of hockey.…
