Monasticism is a social and religious phenomenon which originated in antiquity and which still remains relevant in the twenty-first century. But what, exactly, is it, and how is it distinguished from other kinds of religious and non-religious practice? In this Very Short Introduction Stephen J. Davis discusses the history of monasticism, from our earliest evidence for it, and the different types which have developed from antiquity to the present day. He considers where monasteries are located, from East Asia to North America, and everywhere in between, and how their settings impact the everyday life and worldview of the monks and nuns who dwell there. Exploring how monastic communities are organized, he also looks at how aspects of life like food, sleep, sex, work, and prayer are regimented. Finally, Davis discusses what the stories about saints communicate about monastic identity and ethics, and considers what place there is for monasticism in the modern world.

Fuel and repair costs are rising…
Why not make your (overpriced) fuel work for you? If you appreciate your internal combustion engine, and want to help avoid costly repairs or maintenance to your fuel injector system, you can!
To be honest the quality of fuel is often questionable (I’m looking right at you, ethanol). Modern fuel injection systems are squeezed for every iota of fuel economy and performance. It makes sense to be a little proactive with the preventative maintenance, it’s just good sense.
Adding Jectron to your fuel is a smart, and economical measure that you can take, to keep your injection system running as designed.
It won’t damage your emissions components, it won’t harm your fuel systems more delicate parts (O-rings, plastic tubing, filters, etc.).
There are plenty of great options out there, such as Chevron’s Techron, and a handful of other reputable products. I used to be a very strong advocate of Techron (it’s still my backup choice). However, after witnessing Jectron solve a battery of problems on a variety of vehicles, I’m a convert.
