<p>A nineteen-year-old chemistry major at Rhodes College is selected to spend the summer after her freshman year doing research at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Instead, she finds herself a patient there, fighting a life-threatening form of pediatric cancer and suffering through a year of aggressive chemotherapy and surgery. Refusing to believe what many tell her-that the cancer was all part of "God's plan" - she finds solace in journaling and begins a discussion with her grandfather, a university professor specializing in philosophy of religion. Through her experiences and writing about them, the student discovers that she may be a person of faith after all-just not in the way she expected. Her grandfather has selected and arranged the journal entries and their faith conversation and has commented on them in order to bring out the spiritual dimensions of her experience. He learns from his granddaughter that faith comes more through experience than through ideas. The coauthors hope the book will help other sufferers recognize the presence of a loving God in the midst of pain, uncertainty and death.</p>

<p>"Provides valuable insights into the fabric of UAE society and its recent, eventful past....... Author:Edward Henderson 288 Pages softback 9.5"" x 6""" "Edward Henderson expresses a unique understanding and love of the United Arab Emirates, and in so doing, provides valuable insights in to the fabric of UAE society and its recent, eventful past. His life was inextricably linked to the country's history: arriving in the Trucial States in 1948 as an oil company representative, Henderson joined in the search and discovery of several vast oilfields and their exploration. Simultaneously, political considerations arose and through his intimate knowledge of the tribal system and his contacts with the parties involved; Henderson became an invaluable key to the resolution of recurring conflicts. Few foreigners have won HH Sheikh Zayed's friendship, and even fewer knew and could talk about Sheikh Zayed the way Henderson did. A very personal account of Henderson's life, Arabian Destiny reveals a talented and sensitive individual with the stature of a statesman.</p>
