Free Download Namsoon Kang, "Cosmopolitan Theology: Reconstituting Planetary Hospitality, Neighbor-Love, and Solidarity in an Uneven World"
English | ISBN: 0827205341 | 2013 | 272 pages | PDF | 3 MB
In Cosmopolitan Theology, author Namsoon Kang proposes a theology that embraces and at the same time moves beyond collective identity position and group-based allegiances. It crosses borders of gender, race, nationality, religion, ethnicity, sexuality, and ability. Kang offers a vision of a global community of radical inclusion, solidarity, and deep compassion and justice for others. Blending theology with philosophy, she crosses borders of academism and activism, and the discursive borders of modernism, postmodernism, feminism, and postcolonialism. Cosmopolitan Theology sheds a new light both in academia and the community of Christian believers by providing a public relevance of Jesus’ teaching of neighbor-love, hospitality, and solidarity in our world today.

Part of the Guides to the Underworld series from Hadean Press. The Planetary Intelligences (or Angels) first appear in Cornelius Agrippa’s Three Books of Occult Philosophy, published in 1531-3, though he drafted it around 1508-9. From Agrippa onwards, the Planetary Intelligences have usually been associated with talismanic work. The series of conjurations presented in Sloane 3821 (and partially in Sloane 3825) indicate that they were also conjured in the manner of angels and demons.

Free Download Life on Earth and other Planetary Bodies By Joseph Seckbach (auth.), Arnold Hanslmeier, Stephan Kempe, Joseph Seckbach (eds.)
2012 | 534 Pages | ISBN: 9400749651 | PDF | 10 MB
A trio of editors [Professors from Austria, Germany and Israel] present Life on Earth and other Planetary Bodies. The contributors are from twenty various countries and present their research on life here as well as the possibility for extraterrestrial life. This volume covers concepts such as life’s origin, hypothesis of Panspermia and of life possibility in the Cosmos. The topic of extraterrestrial life is currently ‘hot’ and the object of several congresses and conferences. While the diversity of "normal" biota is well known, life on the edge of the extremophiles is more limited and less distributed. Other subjects discussed are Astrobiology with the frozen worlds of Mars, Europa and Titan where extant or extinct microbial life may exist in subsurface oceans; conditions on icy Mars with its saline, alkaline, and liquid water which has been recently discovered; chances of habitable Earth-like [or the terrestrial analogues] exoplanets; and SETI’s search for extraterrestrial Intelligence.
