xvi+267 pages with plates (some in color), charts, tables, photographs, appendices and index. Quarto (10 3/4" x 8") bound in original publisher's red cloth with silver lettering to spine in pictorial jacket. First edition. Prudence Rice places the rural outpost of Macanche Island within the larger geographical and historical context of the Yucatan peninsula during the Postclassic period. She weaves together analyses of the artifacts, largely ceramics, of Bullard's 1968 excavation with the artifacts found in later excavations focused on the Peten lake basins. Typological descriptions of the pottery are supplemented by analyses of function, slip and paste and by discussions of locally manufacture imported material. This book enables us to reconstruct and understand the role of rural outposts of a powerful civilization during a time of economic and political chaos.

The story centers on Maggie, a young girl from the Bowery who is driven to unfortunate circumstances by poverty and solitude. The work was considered risque by publishers because of its literary realism and strong themes. Crane, who was 22 years old at the time, financed the book's publication himself, although the original 1893 edition was printed under the pseudonym Johnston Smith. After the success of 1895's The Red Badge of Courage, Maggie was reissued in 1896 with considerable changes and… Read More

She belonged to the quirky cult Daughters of the Moon -- and now Arly, fishing for clues with a handsome angler named Jacko, must walk a narrow path to snare a killer who works in mysterious ways....

Description:
1349-1356 pages with cited references. Royal octavo (9 1/4" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Volume 72, number 6 complete issue. First edition. Anthropologists, from Tylor to the present, have so defined magic that, although it might shade into or overlap with religion, it is a separate phenomenon distinct from religion. Theorists have made different features the chief means of differentiation, but no matter how defined the distinction cannot be easily or consistently maintained. This paper suggests that the concept of magic as a distinct entity is the factitious result of ethnocentric classification, and that magic should be included within religion as one type of the practices of which religious ritual is composed.Condition: Spine and edges sunned, light edge wear, corners bumped, rubbed and creased else very good.

37-68 pages with cited references. Quarto (11" x 8 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Current Anthropology Volume 23, Number 1 complete issue. First edition. Comparison of aspects of magical belief and practice with elements identified in experimental parapsychology suggests that some magical phenomena may have their basis in what parapsychology in call psi. Similarities are found between magic and parapsychology in (1) conditions that facilitate the manifestation of magical and psi phenomena, (2) the mental processes implicated as effective in producing magical and psi phenomena, (3) the basic principles underlying the phenomena of magic and psi, (4) the characteristics of the phenomena likely affected by magical action and psi, and (5) the characteristics of the origin of magic suggested by Malinowski and the characteristics of the basis of psi. These congruences are used to distinguish which aspects of magic are likely to be psi-related. Previous theories of magic are integrated in a… Read More

Clay Lockwood enters the Portico with corned beef on his mind. He's a top distributing executive with Grant's Meats, and the contract with the Portico restaurant chain is only the latest in a long line of boardroom coups. He comes for lunch, and eats his fill of his company's beef, but leaves with an entirely different hunger gnawing at his gut—a volcanic passion that will tear him apart.The hostess's name is Sally Alexis, a magician's wife whose rough-hewn charm mesmerizes this magnate of meat.
