CIVIL ISLAM. In this timely and authoritative book, Robert W. Hefner traces the tortured progress of Civil Islam in Indonesia. He draws on insights acquired over a period of eight years from more than four hundred field interviews of Muslim participant-observers and from hundreds of carefully cited scholarly sources in a variety of disciplines. A professor of anthropology at Boston University, Hefner has already published important scholarly works on Indonesia.

A HISTORY OF GOD. Who is God? What can we know about God? And if knowing God is possible, how do we comprehend him: by reason or only through an ecstatic epiphany of faith? These questions have tormented theologians and mystics in the 4,000-year history of monotheism. Their wildly varied answers are explored in an absorbing new book from Britain with a catchy title, a lode of learning and a challenging thesis.
