Religious dynamics under the impact of imperialism and colonialism : a sourcebook /
:
This sourcebook offers rare insights into a formative period in the modern history of religions. Throughout the late 19th and the early 20th centuries, when commercial, political and cultural contacts intensified worldwide, politics and religions became ever more entangled. This volume offers a wide range of translated source texts from all over Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, thereby diminishing the difficulty of having to handle the plurality of involved languages and backgrounds. The ways in which the original authors, some prominent and others little known, thought about their own religion, its place in the world and its relation to other religions, allows for much needed insight into the shared and analogous challenges of an age dominated by imperialism and colonialism.

Refugees from Nazism to Britain in Trade, Industry, and Engineering /
:
From an unlikely Technical College in internment, run by the dubious character Ludwig Warschauer or the unusual female electrical engineer Ira Rischowski, to the unprecedented and creative initiative that was the trading estates where many refugees set up their businesses, this book is full of surprises. You may be intrigued to learn how much the refugees contributed to the British War Effort: from Ludwig Löwy who created new aircraft for the RAF, to Londex, a little known engineering company which made lighting equipment for buoys and submarines, and many others, these case studies reveal how the refugees helped Britain win the war. Contributors are: Tony Morgan, Scott Cairns, Tiffany Beebe, Andrea Hammel, Anna Nyburg, Simon Willey, Cathryn Enis, Simon Parkin, Felicitas Starr-Egger, Jonathan Aylen C, Charmian Brinson, Rob David, Stephen Richardson, Nicholas Russell, Esther Saraga, and Miriam David.
