 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.
