CTheory Electronic Books
=========================
Dear CTheory Readers,
We are pleased to announce the publication of two new CTheory Electronic
Books focused on the common theme of religion, technology and terror
(www.ctheory.net). Taken together, these companion volumes explore the
thesis that the new Protestant ethic of evangelical politics is
simultaneously born again and left behind, an apocalyptic, crusading spirit
of faith-based ideology and dreams of raptured flesh.
Kind regards,
Arthur and Marilouise Kroker
Editors, CTheory
