Kingfisher Readers L5: Rainforests

The law of the sea is an important area of international law which must be able to adapt to the changing needs of the international community. Making the Law of the Sea examines how various international organizations have contributed to the development of this law and what kinds of instruments and law-making techniques have been used. Each chapter considers a different international institution - including the International Maritime Organization and the United Nations - and analyses its functions and powers. Important questions are posed about the law-making process, including what actors are involved and what procedures are followed. Potential problems for the development of the law of the sea are considered and solutions are proposed. In particular, James Harrison explores and evaluates the current methods employed by international institutions to coordinate their law-making activities in order to overcome fragmentation of the law-making process.

James Harrison accepted Jesus as his personal Savior in October of 1975 in a log cabin, in the mountains of Twain Harte, California. This town was named after the famous author Mark Twain. James and his wife Jacque pioneered three churches, one in Mexico and two in the United States. They are also the founders of Hub Ministries Intl. Jim & Jacque have six children and have been pastors in Coulterville, California for over 28 years. They pastor Coulterville Christian Fellowship where God has given them a vision that Coulterville will be a hub for ministries to go out all over the world. A wheel within a wheel as Ezekiel saw when he was carried up in the Spirit. Their desire is to see many come to Christ and then equip them for the work of the Ministry and to acquaint the Body of Christ with the Glory of the Lord and the ministry of the Holy Spirit.

"Born in India but raised and educated in England, Salman Rushdie brings to his fiction a unique awareness of cultural difference and conflict. His complex, buoyant style, first recognized internationally with the Booker Prize-winning Midnight's Children (1981), has brought him to the forefront of postmodern literature. The political and religious controversy Rushdie's satiric work often generated exploded into open hostility when The Satanic Verses was published in 1988." "James Harrison's lively study of Salman Rushdie argues that, in experimenting with different prose styles and narrative modes, as well as in his use of plot, satire, parody, and intrusive authorial commentary, Rushdie expresses his preference for a world of multiplicity, flexibility, and tolerance. Through a close analysis of the major fiction, including Grimus (1975), Shame (1983), and the irresistibly entertaining children's book Haroun and the Sea of Stories (1990), Harrison clearly shows Rushdie's opposition throughout his work to religious fundamentalist thought as a political force. Harrison discusses the relationship between Rushdie's life and work, analyzes all the novels and perceptively and sympathetically assesses the writer's conflict with Muslim and Hindu religious authorities. This invaluable study provides a much needed insight into Salman Rushdie's writings and the exception that has been taken to them by Muslim fundamentalists."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
