Paperback. Condizione: Good. 2001 Butterworth-Heinemann paperback edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. From the cover: Historic Floors introduces an important and largely neglected subject and considers conservation methods in a European context. It traces the history of some of the great floors of Europe from the fourth century BC and outlines the development of mosaic, tiled, marble and marquetry floors in secular buildings. The early Christian pavements in basilicas, temples and cathedrals, the creation of medieval tiles, ledger stones and monumental brasses, their destruction by iconoclasts and recreation during the Gothic Revival, are also discussed. Leading authorities consider the latest methods of recording and repairing historic floors. Management policies to protect over-visited sites are considered in order to contain the damage caused by the dramatic increase in tourism throughout Europe.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Using an innovative methodological approach combining field experiments, case studies, and statistical analyzes, this book explores how the religious beliefs and institutions of Catholics and Muslims prompt them to be generous with their time and resources. Drawing upon research involving more than 1,000 Catholics and Muslims in France, Ireland, Italy, and Turkey, the authors examine Catholicism and Islam in majority and minority contexts, discerning the specific factors that lead adherents to help others and contribute to social welfare projects. Based on theories from political science, economics, religious studies and social psychology, this approach uncovers the causal connections between religious community dynamics, religious beliefs and institutions, and socio-political contexts in promoting or hindering the generosity of Muslims and Catholics. The study also provides insight into what different religious beliefs mean to Muslims and Catholics, and how they understand those concepts.…
