The Oxford Bookworms Library provides superb reading and student / teacher support for the classroom, and is also highly recommended for schools running Extensive Reading Programmes, offering the right range of books that encourage students to read for pleasure. Oh, how delightful it is to fall in love for the first time! How exciting to go to your first dance when you are a girl of eighteen! But life can also be hard and cruel, if you are young and inexperienced and travelling alone across Europe... or if you are a child from the wrong social class... or a singer without work and the rent to be paid. Set in Europe and New Zealand, these nine stories by Katherine Mansfield dig deep beneath the appearances of life to show us the causes of human happiness and despair. |

«Fast Forward» is a series of four courses progressing from elementary to advanced level, which are specifically designed for adults on intensive courses of 60-80 hours. The courses are independent of each other, but are linked in philosophy and approach. For each of the four levels, there are two student's books which work in parallel: the Classbook and the Resource Book. The Classbooks concentrate on communicative skills between students in the classroom. They develop speaking and listening skills through such activities as games, role-plays and projects. The Resource books are designed for self-study. They contain self-access summaries of the grammar and communicative functions of each unit, grammar and writing exercises, and reading and listening passages. (Each level also has a Teacher's Book and cassettes). «Fast Forward 2» follows the same pattern as the other levels, with increasing emphasis on skills work, project work, simulation and role-play.» |

Two billion people today identify as Christians, with the implication that Jesus is the focus of their relationship with God, and their way of living in the world. Such followers of Jesus are now more numerous and make up a greater proportion of the world's population than ever before. Despite its decline in the West, Christianity is rapidly increasing in areas such as Africa and China. Richard Bauckham explores the historical figure of Jesus, evaluating the sources and concluding that they provide us with good historical evidence for his life and teaching. In order to place Jesus in his proper historical context, as a Jew from Galilee in the early first century of our era, Bauckham looks at Jewish religion and society in the land of Israel under Roman rule. He explores Jesus' symbolic practices as well as his teachings, looks at his public career and emphasises how his actions, such as healing and his association with notorious sinners, were just as important as his words. Bauckham shows that Jesus was devoted to the God of Israel, with a special focus on God's fatherly love and compassion, and like every Jewish teacher he expounded the Torah, but did so in his own distinctive way. With a discussion about the way Jesus understood himself and what finally led to his death as a criminal on a Roman cross, he concludes by considering the significance Jesus has come to have for Christian faith worldwide. |
