While the work of Carl Gustav Jung is of immense importance to the development of psychological and philosophical thought in the 20th century, the written works of Jung and many of his followers are framed within the historical context of the first half of the century. In more recent years, many volumes have been published to explain Jungian thought, often to popularize it, occasionally to excoriate it. This collection of essays edited by Polly Young Eisendrath and Terence Dawson is an excellent critical introduction to Jungian and post-Jungian thought from a 21st century perspective. While very readable, the essays are scholarly and avoid oversimplifying the ideas to make them more popularly palatable. In addition to being a useful introduction, the depth of the essays should make them interesting even to readers who are familiar with Jung and his work.

I grew up in Seaside but my parents owned a house in Cannon Beach so we were considered "semi locals" and when we "went to the beach" as young children in the 50s we went to Cannon Beach and Haystack Rock, played amongst the tidal pools at Arch Cape and climbed the rocks at Indian Beach, Ecola Park and everywhere in between. O'Donnell captures not only the spirit of "A Place by the Sea", but "A Place In Time" as well. The Author brings back all the wonderful memories in a truly captivating manner. I read it through cover to cover in one day and look forward to reading it again!

I have owned this book since it was first published. The book was a gift from the author and it is as much fun to read as it was helping with the research.

This is the fourth book in the series about the bridge playing exploits of the fictional Monks of St. Titus Abbey. It follows the format of the earlier books in that each chapter contains a small number of hands played by a common set of characters in a specific setting. A bonus in this book is the first appearance of Robin Hood and his band of outlaws playing against the Sheriff of Nottingham.

As usual, the stories have all previously appeared in assorted Bridge magazines and, for book publication, they have been honed by Reese working with David Bird the original author.

One of the best aspects of this series is that the authors add a liberal quantity of wit to lighten the serious bridge content. You can read this book for the narrative with the technical problems as a bonus but it is certainly well worth trying to work out the play problems before seeing how they are solved in the book. Most of the problems should be within the grasp of a good club player and, if you get stuck on them, the narrative gives an insight into the thought processes of the players who wrestle with the problems in the book.

Despite the fact that it is one of a long running series, this book is not stale. I strongly recommend it to any bridge enthusiast who has a sense of humour.

Unforseen circumstances skew Fletcher's journey, and he and Dalton switch places - twentieth-century man is catapulted forward to 1972, where he must cope with endless bafflement such as radios, The Rolling Stones, tinned food, and condoms.
Fast-paced and humorous, Green's narative flows ingeniously from one time frame and place to the next, alive with intelligence and wit. It will leave you with a sense of wonder about the origins or man and the earth. Truly a treasure for Time Travel enthusiasts!

Absolutely lovely book- I've read as many wreath and garland books as I can get my hands on, and this book is superior to most. The quality of the photos and instructions, as well as the great variety of projects, materials, and quantities (of materials) used, contribute to the beauty of this book. I love their many ideas for roses, especially, and lavendar. Great book.

Terence Sellers, possibly a pseudonym for the Dominant Mistress Angel Stern, writes a harrowing and gripping account of her continued experience in the netherworld of hardcore BDSM. Her writing style, deliberately rarefied and precise, is at once both delicate and clinical.

Ms. Sellers' education as a forensic psychologist shows through in her writing; her careful presentation in-the-full of her "cases", who are usually men who come to her domination service. The appendix, containing long letters and accounts from some of these men, is sometimes frightening to read, but all of it is presented with dry and insightful wit, candor and not without a sense of compassion - for some.

An excellent addition to your library on human sexuality.
