Hosting the Stranger $90 Hosting the Stranger features ten powerful meditations on the theme of interreligious hospitality by eminent scholars and practitioners from the five different wisdom traditions: Jewish, Christian, Hindu, Buddhist and Islamic. By gathering thinkers from different religious traditions around the same timely topic of what it means to “host the stranger,” this text enacts the hospitality it investigates, facilitating a hopeful and constructive dialogue between the world’s major religions. The first part of the volume offers five different hermeneutic readings that each wrestle with what interreligious hospitality means and what it demands. The second part is divided equally between the five different religious perspectives on hosting the stranger, with two thinkers representing each religion. Together these essays remind us of the urgent need for interreligious hospitality, and more importantly, they testify to its ongoing possibility. |

Hosting the Monster $75.6 Hosting the Monster responds to the call of the monstrous with, not rejection, but invitation. Positing the monster as that which defies classification, the essays in this collection are an ongoing engagement with that which lies outside of established boundaries. With chapters ranging from the monstrous mother or the deformed child to subjectivity in transition, this volume is not only of interest to film and gender scholars and literary and cultural theorists but also students of popular culture or horror. Its wide appeal stems from its invitation both to entertain the monster and to widen the call to and the listening for the monsters that have not yet, and perhaps must not yet, come calling back. This sense of hospitality and non-hostility is one guiding principle of this collection, suggesting that the ability to survey and research the otherwise may reveal more about the subjectivity of the self through the wisdom of the other, however monstrous the manifestation. |

Deciding When To File A Depuy Pinnacle Lawsuit
DePuy Orthopaedics, a subsidiary of pharmaceutical giant Johnson & Johnson, has been a trusted name in the medical device industry for over a hundred years. With the recall of the ASR hip replacement system last fall, the company is now facing litigation directed at the Pinnacle hip replacement system.Currently, Pinnacle litigation has been placed on hold until the May 16th hearing where the parties will argue over the appropriate venue for Pinnacle multidistrict litigation (MDL). Patients receiving defective Pinnacle device should know when to pursue a DePuy Pinnacle lawsuit.
DePuy’s Pinnacle hip replacement is categorized as a metal-on-metal device.This device differs from typical hip replacement systems that involve a synthetic plastic liner inside the socket part of the synthetic joint since they are equipped with a metal liner instead. In total hip replacement surgery, the upper end of the thigh bone is replaced with a metal ball and the hip socket in the pelvic bone is resurfaced with a metal shell and metal liner.
After the total hip replacement procedure, the patient must undergo a lengthy rehabilitation and recovery process that could take several weeks or months.However, there are sure signs of a defective device that affects not only this process, but the health of the patient. At what point should a patient who received a Pinnacle hip replacement pursue a DePuy Pinnacle lawsuit?
Over 1,300 complaints have been received by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) concerning the Pinnacle device, with a significant number of these complaints focused on the device loosening from the bone, causing device failure. The main reason for the loosening of the Pinnacle device is due to a condition known as metallosis. Since the metal components of these devices undergo constant friction, metal particles are released into the bloodstream and surrounding tissue. Though further studies need to be done, the metal particles may also cause tumors, abnormal tissue growth, and increase the risk of cancer, stroke and other health problems.
Other complaints include persistent, debilitating pain, especially when any weight is placed on the affected hip, causing difficulty in walking. Hip fractures and bone erosion can also be caused by a defective Pinnacle device.
Patients that are suffering from any of these symptoms should pursue a DePuy Pinnacle lawsuit. If you are suffering from pain caused by DePuy’s Pinnacle device, fight for the compensation you deserve and go to the DePuy Pinnacle lawsuit website to have your case evaluated by an experienced attorney for free.
