July meeting
We are fortunate indeed to have Professor Richard Jackson to talk to us about his novel ‘Confessions of a Terrorist’, published in May this year.
Richard, Deputy Director at Peace & Conflict Studies, will talk about how his early life, and subsequent studies, brought him to write a novel rather than yet another academic treatise to get his message across.
The book was previewed by the ODT and this review is definitely worth looking up.
The Dunedin Sea of Faith’s brochure explains we ‘promote the quest for meaning and fulfilment as a human activity’, and at least one of Richard’s protagonists would say the same.
‘Confessions of a Terrorist’ is a remarkable book, and we are very fortunate to have the opportunity to talk about it with its author.
Richard Jackson and SoF are both publicizing this meeting, and we anticipate significant interest. Please feel welcome to invite your friends and colleagues, too – but only to the meeting (6 – 7.30 pm); our catering wouldn’t cope with a major influx . 
Our newsletter editor, Alan Jackson, is away right now. He does such a good job – please pardon the layout of this newsletter.
