Ritual and Christian Beginnings

Ritual and Christian Beginnings
Risto Uro, "Ritual and Christian Beginnings"
English | ISBN: 0199661170 | 2016 | 248 pages | EPUB, PDF | 673 KB + 1414 KB
The rise of early Christianity has been examined from a myriad of perspectives, but until recently ritual has been a neglected topic. Ritual and Christian Beginnings: A Socio-Cognitive Analysis argues that ritual theory is indispensable for the study of Christian beginnings. It also makes a strong case for the application of theories and insights from the Cognitive Science of Religion, a field that has established itself as a vigorous movement in Religious Studies over the past two decades. Risto Uro develops a "socio-cognitive" approach to the study of early Christian rituals, seeking to integrate a social-level analysis with findings from the cognitive and evolutionary sciences.

Rescuing Science from Politics Regulation and the Distortion of Scientific Research

Rescuing Science from Politics Regulation and the Distortion of Scientific Research
Wendy Wagner, "Rescuing Science from Politics: Regulation and the Distortion of Scientific Research"
English | ISBN: 0521540097 | 2006 | 332 pages | PDF | 1058 KB
Rescuing Science from Politics debuts chapters by the nation's leading academics in law, science, and philosophy who explore ways that the law can be abused by special interests to intrude on the way scientists conduct research. The high stakes and adversarial features of regulation create the worst possible climate for the honest production and use of science especially by those who will ultimately bear the cost of the resulting regulatory standards. Yet an in-depth exploration of the ways in which dominant interest groups distort the available science to support their positions has received little attention in the academic or popular literature. The book begins by establishing non-controversial principles of good scientific practice. These principles then serve as the benchmark against which each chapter author compares how science is misused in a specific regulatory setting and assist in isolating problems in the integration of science by the regulatory process.
