Look to the Rock: An Old Testament Background to Our Understanding of Christ
The Bible is one book, not two separate testaments; so the Old Testament is essential for understanding the New. In this stimulating book on the Old Testament background to Christ, Alec Motyer shows how Jesus is the king expected, who brings in the kingdom looked for in the Old Testament; is both the image and the Word of God; conquers sin and death, and brings the disordered creation to its prefect consummation. To neglect the Old Testament, the author maintains, is to have an impoverished view of the glory of Christ.

MAKING OF MODERN INDIA: Sociological Explorations into Postcolonial Indian Modernity
The present work is an attempt to understand how the founding leaders of independent India envisaged and made an effort to realise the modern Indian society by rupturing the colonial legacy with the typical local, blended with the western universal principles of equality, justice, freedom and socialism. At the time of independence, most of the population of the country was backward, illiterate and poor, and was living in villages. Cities were the seats of exercise of colonial power and all decisions were taken in the urban centres. On top of all these challenges was the socio-cultural diversity of the country’s population. The members of the Constituent Assembly dominated by the Congressmen who were mostly the freedom fighters under Gandhi, took upon themselves to meet the daunting task of drafting the Constitution which would seek to resolve all contradictions and take the country on the path of not only development but also nation-building.

MARRIAGE HOMILIES
As marriage is unique, to reflect that uniqueness requires something more than easy familiarity with the couple’s first names. A little effort and the grace of God can always work wonders. An effective homily is a child of both; there is no substitute for either. The book provides homilies for wedding anniversaries also.
Mary and the Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement
When Jesus was hanging on the cross, he gave us his mother Mary to be our mother. Mary was with her children in prayer at the birth of the Church. Mary continues to be with her children, guiding them in their journey of faith. Ecclesial groups like the Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement can rely on her for guidance and prayers. The Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement can learn a lot from a true charismatic lady like Mary because she is an excellent model for all those who are striving to be true disciples of Jesus Christ.

MEDIA SOCIOLOGY: A Reappraisal
Edited by Silvio Waisbord
Where is sociology in contemporary media studies? How do sociological questions and arguments shape media analysis? These are the questions addressed in this timely collection on media sociology. Sociology was fundamental in defining the analytical boundaries of early media studies, from the study of news and communities to media effects and public opinion, in the first half of the last century. Since then, media sociology has experienced significant changes that have led to new theoretical questions and thematic priorities. This book aims to reassess the past and present relationship between media studies and sociology. With original contributions from leading scholars, Media Sociology: A Reappraisal examines the significance of sociology for the study of media economics, industries, news, audiences, journalism, and digital technologies, and the links between media and race, gender, and class. As a whole, this much-needed volume takes a retrospective view to trace the evolution of media sociology and assess current research directions.

MICHEL FOUCAULT: Key Concepts
Edited by Dianna Taylor
Michel Foucault’s work on freedom, subjectivity and power is now central to thinking across an extraordinarily wide range of disciplines, including philosophy, history, psychology, politics, anthropology, sociology and criminology. Michel Foucault: Key Concepts explores Foucault’s central ideas, such as disciplinary power, biopower, bodies, spirituality, and practices of the self. Each essay focuses on a specific concept, analysing its meaning and uses across Foucault’s work, highlighting its connection to other concepts, and emphasizing its potential applications. Together, the chapters provide the main coordinates to map Foucault’s work. But more than just a guide to his work, Michel Foucault: Key Concepts introduces Foucault’s thinking, equipping the reader with a set of tools that will facilitate and enhance further study of one of the most influential thinkers of recent years.
MILITARY PSYCHOLOGY RESPONSE TO POST-PANDEMIC RECONSTRUCTION (Two Volume Set)
Edited by Lt Col Dr Samir Rawat, Professor Ole Boe and Dr Andrzej Piotrowski
Military response to disasters is increasing exponentially and the global pandemic is no different; prodded by the COVID-19, most militaries the world over go into force protection mode and at the same time, reach out to those in distress as the last resort of government to deal with pandemic. Psychologists play a critical role in facilitating those who have experienced or witnessed a disaster or other personally traumatic events. Given their proximity to frequency of occurrences of such traumatic events, military and police psychologists are in a unique position to study human behaviour under crises situations and recommend best practices and psychological interventions during and after the pandemic currently being experienced the world over. According to researchers, psychologists who respond to human tragedies like the current pandemic must conceptualise post-pandemic interventions, using strategies that take into account individual and group characteristics of the individual/unit/sub unit, intensity, and magnitude of the crises, based on the level of stress/trauma being experienced.
