"Modern Art in Cold War Beirut: Drawing Alliances examines the entangled histories of modern art and international politics during the decades of the 1950s and 60s. Positing the Cold War as a globalized conflict, fraught with different political ideologies and intercultural exchanges, this study asks how these historical circumstances shaped local debates in Beirut over artistic pedagogy, the social role of the artist, the aesthetics of form, and, ultimately, the development of a national art. Drawing on a range of archival material and taking an interdisciplinary approach that combines Art History, Middle Eastern, and Cold War studies, Sarah Rogers argues that the genealogies of modern art can never be understood as isolated, national histories, but rather that they participate in an ever contingent global modernism. This book will be of particular interest to scholars in art history, contemporary art, and Middle East studies"--

The Bible is no ordinary book. Every word of Scripture is inspired and empowered by God, which means we shouldn't read the Bible like any other book. So how should we read God's Word? The Seven Arrows Bible reading method is designed to help you make the most of your time in God’s Word. This clear, orderly, and memorable guide for studying any passage of Scripture will equip you to love and apply God's Word for the rest of your life. Seven Arrows provides a 52-week survey of the overarching story of the Bible, uniting all of Scripture to the person and work of Christ. Using the arrows as a guide, you'll move through the entire Bible in a year and emerge with a deeper appreciation for God's love for you and the beauty and power of His Word. Each arrow of the Seven Arrows Bible reading method represents a question to consider every time you read Scripture:
1. What does this passage say? 2. What did this passage mean to its original audience? 3. What does this passage tell us about God? 4. What does this passage tell us about man? 5. What does this passage demand of me? 6. How does this passage change the way I relate to people? 7. How does this passage prompt me to pray?

Nursing Through the Years: Care and Compassion at the Royal London Hospital

Nursing has always been a challenging but rewarding profession. As part of the core healthcare team, nurses take responsibility for the care they provide to patients, displaying both compassion and discipline in their daily work.Demanding professions require rigorous training, and nursing is no exception. As the real story to ‘Call the Midwife’, Nursing Through the Years is a unique book that spans eight decades to reveal the fascinating lives of nurses who trained and worked at The Royal London Hospital, serving the community of the East End of London.Having interviewed over 85 nurses, whose experiences span from the 1940s to the 2000s, this important account captures the memories of their time at The Royal London. Exploring each decade, the extent to which nursing has developed and changed, and the highs and lows of training to be a nurse in a renowned teaching hospital are recalled in detail.It is a treasure chest of recollections which are informative, entertaining, inspiring, enlightening and also controversial, often challenging the myths and misconceptions that continue to surround nursing today.
