The editors present here the first full scholarly edition of the text, with complete discussions of the provenance, codicology, and philology of the surviving manuscript. They also provide extensive notes and illustrations for the mathematical problems and model contracts, as well as historical commentary on what this text reveals about late antique numeracy, literacy, education, and vocational training in what we would now see as business, law, and administration. The book will be of interest to papyrologists and scholars who are interested in the history and culture of late antiquity, the history of education, literacy, the ancient economy, and the history of science and mathematics.

      When it comes to Bible translations, readability and reliability are what count; and on both counts, the original JERUSALEM BIBLE stands alone. One of the main contributors and lexicographers for this Bible was J. R. R. Tolkien, being consulted for the style, and also criticizing contributions of others. THE JERUSALEM BIBLE (published in 1966) was the first truly modern Bible for Catholics. Using definitive original language texts such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, biblical scholars of L'École Biblique in Jerusalem produced a meticulously accurate, wonderfully readable French translation of the complete canon of Scripture (La Bible de Jérusalem). From this French original came the English edition, edited by renowned Bible scholar Alexander Jones.For all the people around the world who are discovering or revisiting the mysteries contained in the Scriptures, only a clear, understandable Bible translation will do. With language as exquisite but more modern than the King James Version, THE JERUSALEM BIBLE is the one they can trust.

      Samsara is set in Tibet in the late nineteenth century, an untamed and mysterious land. Lhasa, the residence of the Dalai Lama, is a forbidden city where death awaits any foreigner who dares enter its sacred walls. For the British and Russian empires, Tibet has become a strategically vital country to conquer. Into this turbulent realm come two young people, drawn together by deep emotions yet torn apart by conflicting loyalties. Lewis Joyden is a handsome Englishman who travels disguised as a Buddhist monk to survey the land in preparation for a British invasion. Sonya Vremya is a fiercely independent Russian princess on a quest to find her brother, who has vanished while on a mission from the Tsar, and to track down her unloving husband to beg for a divorce. Though separated by national conflicts, they face the dangers and uncertainties of a strange and magical country, drawing ever closer amid the perils that threaten them.
