Collected together in words and pictures Those Summers of Cricket pays homage to Richie Benaud's life. The many contributions bring his life into sharp focus for the many generations who only know him as the 'voice' of cricket. And through each piece, often written by an ex-Australian cricket team member or captain or cricket writer or sports commentator or Richie Benaud himself, we learn more about the brilliant career that unfolded. Along the way the many accolades accorded Richie as he went from club cricket, district and State cricket to leading the Australian Cricket Team are documented from newspapers and reports. Richie Benaud's own words tell of growing up in Jugiong and later western Sydney. His brother tells of Richie's selection into the Australian cricket team. Among the contributing pieces to this anthology are those from ex-Test captains Greg Chappell and Ian Chappell; ex-coach Australian cricket coach John Buchanan; ex-Australian cricketers Dennis Lillee and Alan Davidson; cricket writers Gideon Haigh, Simon Hughes, Malcolm Knox, Leo McKinstry (UK), Jim White (UK), Daniel Brettig, Steve Cannane, and commentator Mike Atherton. All are opinionated and fascinating reading. All bring to life the many faces of Richie Benaud in this warm and colourful tribute.

'Paganism' is an evocative word that, even today, conjures up deep-seated emotions and prejudices. Until recently, it was primarily a derogatory term used by Christians to describe the non-Christian cultures confronted and vanquished by their Churches. For some it evokes images of sacrifice and barbaric behaviour, while for others it symbolises a peace-loving, nature-worshipping spiritual relationship with the earth. This Very Short Introduction explores the meaning of paganism - through a chronological overview of the attitudes towards its practices and beliefs - from the ancient world through to the present day. Owen Davies largely looks at paganism through the eyes of the Christian world, and how, over the centuries, notions and representations of its nature were shaped by religious conflict, power struggles, colonialism, and scholarship. Despite the expansion of Christianity and Islam, Pagan cultures continue to exist around the world, whilst in the West new formations of paganism constitute one of the fastest-growing religions.
