Rabbi Gershom takes you where no rabbi has gone before! You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy this well-researched and reader-friendly journey into Jewish themes, actors, writers, in-jokes and subtexts in the Star Trek Universe. Inspired by a class he taught at the Minneapolis Talmud Torah, the book explores such things as: The Jewish origin of the Vulcan salute; How Vulcan culture is based on rabbinical Judaism; "Who is a Jew" among Trek characters in episodes, movies and the novels; How Talmudic logic helped expand the Star Trek universe; Why Ferengi values are NOT Jewish values -- and much more!

In 1995, Star Trek: Voyager brought a new dynamic to Star Trek's familiar, starship oriented, show. Lost 70,000 light-years in space, Voyager and its crew faced an uncertain and changeable future, echoing anxieties felt in the United States at the time. These fifteen essays explore the context, characters, and themes of Star Trek: Voyager, as they relate to the culture and zeitgeist of the 1990s. Essays on gender show how the series both challenges and reinforces typical SF stereotypes through the characters of Captain Janeway, Kes and Seven of Nine, while essays on identity examine the show's intersections with disability studies, race and multiracial identities, family dynamics, and emerging AI and humanity. Using the epic journey of Homer's Odyssey as a starting point for the series, and ending with an examination of the impacts of inception at the birth of the internet age, this book shows the many ways in which Voyager negotiated different perspectives for what the future of the galaxy and the USA could be.

A fascinating journey around one of the Nordic region’s least known countries. A detailed exploration and explanation of the character of the Finnish people. The author’s family background gives him a unique access to this very private people. At an age when many of his peers might be considering a cardigan and slippers lifestyle, Max Boyle departs his native Huddersfield for a backpacking journey in the southern regions of Finland. There he takes in the cities of Helsinki, Tampere and Turku, as well as many smaller towns and villages. Inspired by his own Finno-Ugric roots, he seeks out aspects of Finnish history and culture, enjoys boat trips in Finnish Lakeland and a not-so-daring funfair ride, discovers something of Finland’s celebrated heavy-metal scene, indulges in a traditional sauna and, not least, samples a variety of bars and restaurants. The reason for the trip, however, is an enquiry into Finnish national character. During the course of his journey he conducts a number of interviews with those he encounters, examining their views on supposed Finnish characteristics such as sisu (a never-give-up attitude), concealment of feelings, modesty and, above all, ultra-honesty. Variously basking in sunshine, assailed by rain, and targeted by mosquitoes, Boyle makes his way around the country’s South, home to the majority of Finland’s population, and duly encounters a people referred to by American Finnophile Richard D. Lewis as ‘the honest tribe’. This is an often a light-hearted journey around one of Europe’s most quietly successful countries.

“An ancient spiritual maxim says, ‘Find God in all things.’ Jan Boys is one of those rare people who does. This engaging book about her travels (geographical and spiritual) invites us to think about our personal travels and reminds us that in the complexity of nature we can see the simplicity of God.” Bernard Brady, Ph.D., Professor of Theology, University of St. Thomas, Minnesota, author of A Spiritual Field Guide. Are you seeking God’s presence in your life? Perhaps you’re retired or a traveler. Do you long for greater significance and purpose in your journeys? If so, then TRAVELING WITH THE LORD will appeal to you. Be prepared to find the Lord within its pages, and then listen for the still small voice of God. While standing on a bridge over a turbulent river with shifting currents and swirling whirlpools, most people stop for a few moments, glance down, and see only water rushing below. “On the other hand,” Jan Boys’ husband Gene observes, “Jan stood on the bridge over the waters of Deception Pass in Washington State for fifteen minutes or more, studied the turbulent scene, and then wrote about God’s presence in the tumultuous times of life.” “Picking a Path Through Turbulence” is one of twenty-five reflective stories in TRAVELING WITH THE LORD: An Emmaus Journey to the Pacific Northwest. This series of reflections -- a bit of travelogue and treasure hunt -- is drawn from the sights, sounds, and events of the Boys’ two six-month journeys covering more than 37,000 miles. Jan explains, “I create word pictures of places and events from our trips, describe how they relate to life, then listen and search for the presence of God.” While dry camping and enjoying the desert’s vibrant sunset, or craning her neck and tearfully gazing up at towering redwoods, or admiring massive majestic mountains, or savoring the tranquility of the ocean surf, God whispered and she heard, again and again. A sampling of the twenty-five reflections from the desert to the redwood forest, from the mountains to the ocean shore includes: “Finding God in the Desert” ...... Rio Rancho, New Mexico “Our Pilgrimage of Prayer” ...... The Grotto, Portland, Oregon “On Waves and White Noise” ... Olympic National Park “Facing My Fears” ................. Riding the Hiawatha Bike Trail “Firm Foundations” ............... Glacier National Park "The Towering Cathedral” ........ The California Redwoods “Never Forget Your Dreams” .... The Black Hills Of South Dakota “God’s Survival Plan” ............. Mount St. Helens Revisited Jan describes this as “finding God in the everyday stuff of life.” She sees more than the sight or event itself. God uses it as a teaching tool, a parable to speak to Jan’s soul and to encourage her to listen for His still small voice. TRAVELING WITH THE LORD: An Emmaus Journey to the Pacific Northwest will appeal to those seeking God’s presence in their lives, to travelers, retirees, and anyone longing for greater significance and purpose in their journeys. • Use these reflections and stories to hear the whisperings of God as Jan did. • Use them as a travel guide. Visit the same places yourself, look around with new eyes, and see what God reveals to you. • Use them as a steppingstone to enable you to find your own sense of purpose and ways to leave a legacy. Jan encourages all of us. “We are pilgrims on a journey to our heavenly home. In all your own wanderings and experiences, travel with the Lord, look for Him in the everyday stuff of life, and listen for the still small voice of God. Come, take a journey and go TRAVELING WITH THE LORD.”

Women are now central to many science fiction films--but that has not always been the case. Female characters, from their token presence (or absence) in the silent pictures of the early 20th century to their roles as assistants, pulp princesses and sexy robots, and eventually as scientists, soldiers and academics, have often struggled to be seen and heard in a genre traditionally regarded as of men, by men and for men. Surveying more than 650 films across 120 years, the author charts the highs and lows of women's visibility in science fiction's cinematic history through the effects of two world wars, social and cultural upheavals and advances in film technology.
