Drawing from multiple fields, it brings together theoretical discussion and empirical case studies that illustrate "on-the-ground," extant secularisms as they interact with various religious, political, social, and economic contexts. Its point of departure is the fact that secularism is plural and that various secularisms have developed in various contexts and from various traditions around the world. Secularism takes on different social meanings and political valences wherever it is expressed. The essays collected here provide numerous points of contact between empirical case studies and theoretical reflection. This multiplicity informs and challenges the conceptual theorization of secularism as a universal doctrine. Analyses of different regions enrich our understanding of the meanings of secularism, providing comparative range to our notions of secularity. Theoretical treatments help to inform our understanding of secularism in context, enabling readers to discern what is at stake in the various regional expressions of secularity globally. While the bulk of the essays are case-based research, the current thinking of leading theorists and scholars is also included.Religion and its others ;Volume 2.SecularismPostsecularismReligionSecularism.global.post-secularism.religion.Secularism.Postsecularism.Religion.200.9/04BE 9020rvkRectenwald MichaelAlmeida RochelleLevine GeorgeMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797783303321Global secularisms in a post-secular age3796822UNINA04310nam 2200949Ia 450 991077974530332120230803021056.00-520-27283-80-520-95688-510.1525/9780520956889(CKB)2550000001096537(EBL)1251018(OCoLC)852656400(SSID)ssj0000916821(PQKBManifestationID)11485649(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000916821(PQKBWorkID)10890844(PQKB)10674782(MiAaPQ)EBC1251018(DE-B1597)519572(DE-B1597)9780520956889(Au-PeEL)EBL1251018(CaPaEBR)ebr10729707(CaONFJC)MIL503071(EXLCZ)99255000000109653720130412d2013 ub 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrField guide to the common bees of California[electronic resource] including bees of the Western United States /text by Gretchen LeBuhn ; illustrations by Noel B.

KEY TO FEMALES OF GENERA INCLUDED IN THIS BOOK -- GLOSSARY -- RESOURCES -- INDEX -- ABOUT THE AUTHOR AND ILLUSTRATOR -- California Natural History GuidesThis engaging and easy-to-use natural history guidebook provides a thorough overview of native and honey bee biology and offers tools for identifying the most common bees of California and the Western United States. Full-color illustrations introduce readers to more than 30 genera of native bees, noting each one's needs and habits and placing them in their wider context. The author highlights bees' ties to our own lives, the food we eat, and the habitat we provide, and suggests ways to support bees in our own backyards. In addition to helping readers understand and distinguish among major groups of bees, this guide reveals how bees are an essential part of healthy ecosystem and how many plants, including important crop plants, depend on the pollination they provide. As growing evidence points to declining bee populations, this book offers critical information about the bond between plants and pollinators, and between humans and nature. Thoroughly researched and full of new insights into the ancient process of pollination, Field Guide to the Common Bees of California; Including Bees of the Western United States is invaluable for the window it opens onto the biodiversity, adaptive range, and complexity of invertebrate communities.  BeesCaliforniaIdentificationBeesWest (U.S.)Identificationadaptive range.antennae.backyard biology.biodiversity.bug books.california.common bees.conservation.declining bee populations.easy to use.ecology.engaging.entomology.field guide.full color illustrations.healthy ecosystem.honey bee biology.identification charts.insects.invertebrate animals.life sciences.native bees.natural habitats.natural history guidebook.natural history.nature.pollination.united states.zoology.BeesBees595.79/9LeBuhn Gretchen1961-1581834MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910779745303321Field guide to the common bees of California3863668UNINA
