New Releases by Ray Gibson

This is a guide toward understanding Jesus Christ''s restored church, and it teaches Christ''s original gospel doctrines that were lost because of the apostasy and because of the many revisions made by uninspired church leaders after Christ''s death on through the dark ages. These teachings are found today in His restored church called the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

The first edition of Alan Gibson''s Understanding the Founding is widely regarded as an invaluable guide to the last century''s key debates surrounding America''s founding. This new edition retains all of the strengths of the original while adding a substantial new section addressing a major but previously unaddressed issue and also significantly revising Gibson''s invaluable conclusion and bibliography. In the original edition, which was built upon his previous work in Interpreting the Founding, Gibson addressed four key questions: Were the Framers motivated by their economic interests? How democratic was the Framers'' Constitution? Should we interpret the Founding using philosophical or strictly historical approaches? What traditions of political thought were most important to the Framers? He focused especially on the preconceptions that scholars brought to these questions, explored the deepest sources of scholars'' disagreements over them, and suggested new and thoughtful lines of interpretation and inquiry. His incisive analysis brought clarity to the complex and sprawling debates and shed new light on the institutional and intellectual foundations of the American political system. Gibson has now added a path-breaking new chapter entitled "How Could They Have Done That? Founding Scholarship and the Question of Moral Responsibility," which reprises and critiques on of the most important and vexing contemporary debates on the American founding. The new chapter focuses on how the men who fought a revolution in the name of liberty and declared to the world that "all men are created equal" could have supported the institution of slavery and even owned slaves themselves, accepted the legal and social subordination of women, and been responsible for Indian removal and genocide against Native Americans. Efforts to criticize or defend the Founders on these issues now constitute a daunting body of scholarship addressing what David Brion Davis has called the "dilemmas of slaveholding revolutionaries." Gibson''s astute and fair-minded analysis of this scholarship offers keen insights into how we might move toward more mature and responsible evaluations of the Founders.

En 1912, el genial artista español Pablo Picasso, mientras realizaba una pintura, tuvo la idea de recortar un trozo de papel impreso y pegarlo en su obra. Muy poco tiempo después, otros destacados artistas tales como Juan Gris, Georges Braque, Casimir Malevich, Jean Arp, Kurt Schwitters y Max Ernst comenzaron a aplicar con mucha frecuencia esta técnica en su trabajo, logrando espectaculares resultados. La idea era muy simple: sólo había que recortar y pegar. Así nació el collage, una palabra de origen francés que significa "pegar". Este libro es una maravillosa invitación a entretenerse explorando las enormes posibilidades creativas que tiene este sencillo procedimiento. Con ejemplos muy simples y explicaciones redactadas en un estilo claro y ameno, los niños descubrirán que actividades tan sencillas como recortar y pegar les abrirán las puertas a un mundo fascinante de creatividad y diversión.
