Great Britain: Inter-Varsity Press, 2000. Paperback. Slight crease to corner front cover. 'Sixteen infant schoolkids and their teacher were murdered by a crazed gunman at gym class yesterday' (Dumblane, Scotland). 'James Bulger's battered body was found on a railway line two days after he was lured from a shopping centre' (Merseyside, England). The front pages read like a macabre nightmare. These crimes show a sickening disregard for human life and dignity, the very essence of which makes up civilised society. And when prisoners stage rooftop protests from overcrowded prisons, when the figures for crime refuses to come down fo any amount of investment into policing, we know there must be something very wrong with our criminal justice system. The answer is not, writes the author, more police, more prisons or tougher sentencing. It lies in how we answer four foundational questions: 'Who are we'?, 'What is justice'?, 'Can we be redeemed'? and 'How can we restore Shalom to crime-ravaged communities'? Colson contends that no worldview other than the biblical one can sustain a rational, liveable and just society, and that by returning to it we can retrieve a system of justice which restores peace and order to individuals and to society. Charles Colson is a leading US authority on causes and responses to crime. In 1975, on his release from prison on Watergate-related offences, Colson launched Prison Fellowship, which now serves the spiritual and practical needs of prisoners in eighty-three countries. Through the world of Justice Fellowship, founded in 1983, Colson works with legislators and policy-makers to promote principles of restorative justice. 150 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) . 1st Paperback Edition. Soft Cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Paperback., Inter-Varsity Press, 2000, New Delhi: Mittal Publications, 1991. N.A.. New. Xvi+548pp Once the Father of the Indian Nation, Mahatma Gandhi, aptly said that India would be safe in the hands of Jawaharlal Nehru. Today the same is true of Chandra Shekhar who has taken over the reigns of India in his hands, in the best Gandhian and Nehruvian spirit and tradition. A staunch socialist he has experience of more than four decades of active politics. He had struggled for years for principles, while others had managed to stick to chair. He is old in years, but young in ideas. What is politics and what are values, for Chandra Shekhar? Did Congress use Chandra Shekhar to bring down National Front Government? Chandra Shekhar?s main difficulty does not emanate from the numerical weakness of his group, it flows from the limited talent available to him for manning the government efficiently. Chandra Shekhar has the advantage of having shared ideals with the Congress ideology. His championship of secularism, socialism and commitment to economic uplift of the country place him close to the Congress principles-he was a prominent member of the Congress Party at one time. Will Chandra Shekhar act on lines of his predecessor? Will he be allowed to solve the unsolved issues? His critical attitude to multinationals may not come in the way of the needed changes in industrial policy in the government will be required to clear internal problems, promote national international and restore India?s image abroad. This book examines the plus and minus points of Chandra Shekhar, the man and the leader. This book provides a masterly analysis of his life-sketch with facts and figures.
