level research that could lead to new understandings of religion's role in
economic, social and political life. It will also facilitate a broader
range of study by bringing together a network of scholars, to be
known as the Institute for Economic Research on Civilizations (IERC), to
promote comparative research and raise the level of discourse on the role of
various religions and forms of spiritual capital in the economic performance
of civilizations. One section will analyze the impact of 150 years of
missionary activity; a second section will analyze the economic consequences
of Pentecostal conversions in Brazil; a third section will focus on the
influence of revivalist Islam and Christianity in rural Malawi. Full grant applications will then be invited for a total of $1.

position in a way that I understood ," says Milner. "But it does not contradict the treasured force of my faith. Now, wherever and whenever people
listen to audio books, they'll have the option of listening to, as well as
reading, our books that extend the dialogue between science and religion,
promote ethical values and the development of character, and encourage a
humble approach in all of life's endeavors. Koenig with Gregg Lewis ($14.
