Killing God

'In this plain-spoken book Gupta and Pushkar argue that India's 'citizen elites' must do more to enable the poor in making sustained demands for health-related services. Their insightful and rigorous argument draws on a remarkable range of evidence, from field research in low-income communities in New Delhi to reflections on citizen activism in Brazil.' - James McGuire, author of Wealth, Health, and Democracy in East Asia and Latin America

'Democracy, Civil Society and Health in India is a compelling and well-researched book in which the authors highlight a crucial linkage between civil society capacity and provision of basic health services and provide a convincing demonstration of how sustained claims-making can impact on human development outcomes in the most direct way possible.' - Antonia Maioni, McGill University, Canada

'Gupta and Pushkar expand our understanding of the reasons and processes that hinder a robust demand for greater and deeper public policy intervention in health by examining a broad range of relevant factors that impede the emergence of a more engaged civil society in this sector.' - Amit Prakash, Jawaharlal Nehru University, India

'India's resilient democracy has resulted in many positive outcomes. However, millions in the country lack access to social services, including healthcare. In this wonderful book, Gupta and Pushkar explain why large numbers of Indians fail to effectively claim their rights and what needs be done so that they do so.' - Dan Banik, Centre for Development and the Environment, University of Oslo, Norway

"Fifteen years ago Frances Cairncross predicted the Death of Distance. In the age of social media we know that futurology with an accent on technology is a key for politicians, business people and all of us as citizens of this ever crowded planet. Singh has laid out a fascinating scenario which should make us think hard about the world our children are going to inherit." - Steve Norris Former British Minister and London Mayoral candidate

'Very few rights are absolute, and "accommodation" of conflicting rights and interests is the hallmark of any successful system of governance. Accommodation in response to competing identities is particularly necessary to address many of the tensions in modern states, whether we refer to the relevant principles as minority rights, promotion of diversity, multiculturalism, or devolution of power. This volume offers practical as well as theoretical guidance drawn from a number of important case studies, and it is a welcome contribution to the debate over what democracy really means'. Hurst Hannum, Professor of International Law, The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University, USA

'This book offers a very good up-to-date analysis of some of the key issues and empirical cases related to the recognition and political accommodation of national minorities in multinational democracies. In recent years, this subject has undergone a change that point to the revision of theories of democracy and federalism in multinational polities as well as in multi-level systems of governance and secessionist processes. Political science and constitutional law are the two balanced approaches presented in the essays in this volume. It is certain to become an academic reference for any reader interested in minority nations and their political and constitutional accommodation in nationally divided societies'. Ferran Requejo, Professor of Political Science at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, Spain

"Chaos! Apocalypse! Doom! In this volume Majid Yar takes up these most spectacular and enduring images of human mortality and masterfully traces them to their most familiar intersections crime, violence and disorder. Tangling with zombies, mutants and monsters of all kinds, Yar's vast and lively repertoire of political and cultural theory provides all the ammunition necessary to fight through our own apocalyptic fantasies and to imagine worlds less fraught by suffering and injustice. Whether you are a theoretically informed criminologist or simply hoping to decipher the nightly news, Crime and the Imaginary of Disaster will not disappoint. Read it! Get prepared!" - Travis Linnemann, School of Justice Studies, Eastern Kentucky University

“This was easily one of the most enjoyable academic works I have read in recent years. … Happily, for twenty-first-century readers, Engel makes much ado about muffs, and in so doing, makes a valuable and absorbing contribution to the study of the intersections between material culture, fiction, and the visual and performing arts of the long eighteenth century.” (Heather Ladd, Eighteenth-Century Fiction, Vol. 32 (1), 2019)

&ldquo;Timely, riveting, enlightening and necessary.&rdquo;&mdash;HuffPost&ldquo;Tantalizing . . . Driven by [Reza] Aslan&rsquo;s grace and curiosity, God . . . helps us pan out from our troubled times, while asking us to consider a more expansive view of the divine in contemporary life.&rdquo;&mdash;The Seattle Times &ldquo;A fascinating exploration of the interaction of our humanity and God.&rdquo;&mdash;Pittsburgh Post-Gazette &ldquo;[Reza Aslan&rsquo;s] slim, yet ambitious book [is] the story of how humans have created God with a capital G, and it&rsquo;s thoroughly mind-blowing.&rdquo;&mdash;Los Angeles Review of Books &ldquo;Aslan is a born storyteller, and there is much to enjoy in this intelligent survey.&rdquo;&mdash;San Francisco Chronicle &ldquo;Extraordinary . . . clear, concise [and] lively.&rdquo;&mdash;The Spectator&ldquo;Breathtaking in its scope and controversial in its claims, God: A Human History shows how humans from time immemorial have made God in their own image, and argues that they should now stop. Writing with all the verve and brilliance we have come to expect from his pen, Reza Aslan has once more produced a book that will prompt reflection and shatter assumptions.&rdquo;&mdash;Bart D. Ehrman, author of How Jesus Became God &ldquo;Reza Aslan offers so much to relish in his excellent &lsquo;human history&rsquo; of God. In tracing the commonalities that unite religions, Aslan makes truly challenging arguments that believers in many traditions will want to mull over, and to explore further. This rewarding book is very ambitious in its scope, and it is thoroughly grounded in an impressive body of reading and research.&rdquo;&mdash;Philip Jenkins, author of Crucible of Faith
