- Reading : Other Powers: the Age of Suffrage, Spiritualism and the Scandalous Victoria Woodhull'; row_arr[1]=' Barbara Goldsmith'; row_arr[2]='
Superb historical recreation of an era of seminal importance to the prevailing worldview of contemporary Western culture since the 1960s. All the issues that are identified with our current era - black rights, feminism, \"free love\" divorce, women\'s rights, abortion, the \"battle of the sexes\", \"new age\" spiritualities etc. were all foreshadowed in post Civil War America almost a century earlier. There is indeed \"nothing new under the sun\". Barbara Goldsmith\'s book is a fascinating account of the way in which early feminism and spiritualism were closely intertwined. This is history made alive, a great story that makes for gripping reading.'; table_arr[1] = row_arr; row_arr = new Array();row_arr[0]='
- Reading : The Aryan Christ: the Secret Life of Carl Gustav Jung'; row_arr[1]=' Richard Noll'; row_arr[2]='
What do the noted psychologist Carl Jung and Adolph Hitler have in common? Both men were profoundly influenced by the Volkish movement that gripped fin-de-sicle Germany and Switzerland: a potent blend of occultism, neo-paganism and Darwinianism - social and otherwise - that expressed itself in sun worship, vegetarianism, naturism, esoteric magic, spirit-channelling and an obsession with \"blood and soil\" based upon pre-Christian Aryan mythology. Noll\'s closely researched book reveals another side to Jung, an extraordinary man convinced of his own greatness who saw himself as the founder of a new \"Dionysian religion\" with himself as its god - the Aryan Christ of the title.'; table_arr[2] = row_arr; row_arr = new Array();row_arr[0]='
- Reading : Being me: what it means to be human'; row_arr[1]=' Pete Moore'; row_arr[2]='
A powerful antidote to reductionism that lets the reader glimpse the wonder of being human through the stories of nine unique individuals and the insight of author Moore.'; table_arr[3] = row_arr; row_arr = new Array();row_arr[0]='
- Reading : Rumors of Another World: What on Earth Are We Missing?'; row_arr[1]=' Philip Yancey '; row_arr[2]='
In 1979 Bruce Cockburn sang the aching and eloquent \"Rumours of Glory\". Nearly 25 years later the inimitible Philip Yancey writes about the rumours of another world. Cockburn\'s rumours of glory and Yancey\'s rumors of another world speak to the heart about the same place. You miss that place at your peril. A must-read for the genuine seeker standing on the the \"borderlands\" of faith.'; table_arr[4] = row_arr; row_arr = new Array();row_arr[0]='
- Reading : On the Missionary Trail: The Classic Georgian Adventure of Two Englishmen, Sent on a Journey Around the World, 1821-1829'; row_arr[1]=' Tom Hiney'; row_arr[2]='
Absolutely fabulous and rivetting account of the eight year long journey undertaken by two unlikely adventurers - representatives of the Evangelical London Missionary Society - to report on the status of its far- flung mission outposts at \"the ends of the earth\". The jaded, self-satisifed and superior modern reader may scoff at the Evangelical earnestness and piety of its missionary heroes but for those willing to overcome such prejudice they will discover in Hiney\'s book (written without either condescension or excessive chronological snobbery) a fascinating and very human account of a world long vanished and a type of heroic - if flawed - individual long vanquished from the realm our own \"enlightened\" age.'; table_arr[5] = row_arr; row_arr = new Array();row_arr[0]='
- Reading : Gulag: A History of the Soviet camps'; row_arr[1]=' Anne Applebaum'; row_arr[2]='
The full horror of the forced labour camps and the state sponsored genocide that was the Russian Gulag is laid bare in this well researched and penetrating expose of life in the Communist utopian nightmare. What is as bad as the horrors recounted is the worldwide amnesia towards the millions who perished therein.'; table_arr[6] = row_arr; row_arr = new Array();row_arr[0]='
