A Christian Ethic for the Modern Church is a meditation on the psychology of the West and the future of the Church in light of our changing world. If we are to be a force for good in coming generations, the nature of our relationships with history, cultural institutions, and the created order will need to undergo significant repair. A Christian Ethic proposes a framework from which to view the issues of our modern era and illuminates the distortions caused by our unhealthy enmeshment with politics, the media, and consumerism. It articulates the fundamental notion of the divided psyche as a primary source of human misery and a requisite for the objectification and exploitation of human beings and the created order. Finally, A Christian Ethic for the Modern Church offers a number of practical, individual, and corporate considerations for reintegration and healing while remaining true to Christian orthodoxy.

El Poder de Jesus y las Escrituras son las dos armas mas poderosas que tenemos en la vida. Estas nos conectan con Dios y permiten que su poder fluya en nosotros. Mateo 15:36 "Y tomando los siete panes y los peces, dio gracias, los partio y dio a sus discipulos, y los discipulos a la multitud."

Cipriano Frederico Vigil is the most important performer of traditional Nuevomexicano folk music in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. This bilingual panoramic book presents the songs that are his life’s work, spanning half a century of listening, playing, composing, and singing ritual, social, and dance music. New Mexican Folk Music includes much traditional material that has never been seen before or studied by scholars or students. Renowned as a composer, Vigil works in traditional genres such as the romance, the décima, the cuando, and corrido. Like the Mexican group Los Folkloristas with which he apprenticed in the late 1970s, his goal has been to research and master local styles, to introduce new listeners to traditional music, and to build on tradition by creating new compositions that address contemporary social themes. An audio CD accompanies this comprehensive study on the work and music of Cipriano Frederico Vigil.

Arsenio Rodr\u00edguez was one of the most important Cuban musicians of the twentieth century. In this first scholarly study, ethnomusicologist David F. Garc\u00eda examines Rodr\u00edguez's life, including the conjunto musical combo he led and the highly influential son montuno style of music he created in the 1940s. Garc\u00eda recounts Rodr\u00edguez's battle for recognition at the height of \u0022mambo mania\u0022 in New York City and the significance of his music in the development of salsa. With firsthand accounts from relatives and fellow musicians, Arsenio Rodr\u00edguez and the Transnational Flows of Latin Popular Music follows Rodr\u00edguez's fortunes on several continents, speculating on why he never enjoyed wide commercial success despite the importance of his music. Garc\u00eda focuses on the roles that race, identity, and politics played in shaping Rodr\u00edguez's music and the trajectory of his musical career. His transnational perspective has important implications for Latin American and popular music studies.
