Paperback. Zustand: Good. 2020 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalists - Ecology and Environment Jesus' command is clear: we are called to feed all of God's children. But is that possible? Twenty-five years ago, 23.3 percent of the world's population lived in hunger. Today, that number has dropped to 12.9 percent--giving rise to the renewed hope that what once seemed unthinkable is now within reach. The challenges are great, but the fight to eliminate malnutrition and hunger is one we can win. The End of Hunger brings together activists, politicians, scientists, pastors, theologians, and artists on this urgent topic. Here is a comprehensive picture of the current situation--the latest facts and figures are presented alongside compelling stories, both from those engaged in the fight against hunger and from the hungry themselves. Here too are clear steps for action by individuals, families, churches, and communities. This book is designed to inform and inspire you to get involved in the gospel work of eradicating global malnutrition and feeding the hungry.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In a world where there is so much food, why are so many people hungry? Amidst so much plenty, why aren't people happier? L. Shannon Jung insists that the two questions-one having to do with physical hunger, the other with spiritual want-are related. Hunger and Happinessexposes the atrocities of a global food system whereby the affluent "feed" at the expense of others, but then goes on to explore how complicity in the hunger of others contributes to the "spiritual malnourishment" of those who otherwise are well fed. Chapters address particular aspects of a global food policy that insures cheap food for some at great expense to many others. Jung considers the psychological and theological implications of such policy and after assessing the moral ramifications of cheap food, offers possibilities for alleviating physical hunger in the world and spiritual malaise in our lives.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Helen or My Hunger is a looping, serial sequence that explores the relationship between memory, language, the body, and power. In dialogue with H.D.'s 1961 epic Helen in Egypt, these poems address the eidolon>of Helen of Troy: the echo of an echo. They question notions of beauty and the body by communicating with this absence, sustaining this unsustainable dialogue. Ghost? Icon? Mother? Friend? These poems address the ruptures of trauma, violence, with mythology and lineage, with the inevitable failings of gender and the body.The core of Helen or My Hunger>contains, and at the same time rejects-tries to distract itself from-the material of the writer's life and body. These poems reckon with hunger, desire, and shame, and with the violence of language and representation (body as icon, as seat of trauma). Helen or My Hunger>asks: how can we live in a world where both private and public pain resist language? How can we mark differences, but also make visible the samenesses? What violence do we sanction through language, through narrative, through form? In a sequence that resists its own formation, Helen or My Hunger>wonders how to live in a world that seeks to reduce, to wound, what it cannot contain.…
