Having a phrenological 'head reading' was one of the most
significant fads of the nineteenth century - a means for better
knowing oneself and a guide for self-improvement. Samuel Clemens
(Mark Twain) had a lifelong yet long overlooked interest in
phrenology, the pseudoscience claiming to correlate skull features
with specialized brain areas and higher mental traits. Twain's
books are laced with phrenological terms and concepts, and he
lampooned the head readers in Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. He
was influenced by Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, who also used his
humor to assail head readers and educate the public. Finger shows
that both humorists accepted certain features of phrenology, but
not their skull-based ideas. By examining a fascinating topic at
the intersection of literature and the history of neuroscience,
this engaging study will appeal to readers interested in
phrenology, science, medicine, American history, and the lives and
works of Twain and Holmes.

other side. We are taken on ghost-busts, to the mystical site of
Avalon and astral travels to the home of her spirit guide. Mia
reveals how we find happiness in this world and answers profound
questions about life, death and psychic phenomena: - What is it
like to die? - How can we still communicate with loved ones after
death? - Do angels and demons exist? - Is there such a thing as a
soul mate? - Is there such a thing as destiny or do we control our
own fate? - What happens to our souls after we die? 'I wish there
was some way I could share my ability to see things other people
can't. We all have a guide, but not everyone can see or hear
theirs. I've no idea what opened up the link between Eric and me,
but I consider it a gift.' Mia Dolan in Real magazine

The first graphology book written specifically for human
resources professionals, this volume is designed to help those
involved in the selection of new employees find out how handwriting
analysis can help them learn more about the people they plan to
hire and promote. As the author notes at the outset, handwriting
analysis is beginning to enjoy widespread acceptance in the U.S. as
a valuable adjunct to other pre-employment tests. Sackheim suggests
how managers can best work with a professional graphologist, shows
how to find a consultant with the proper credentials, and
demonstrates how to evaluate the various traits revealed by
handwriting analysis according to how they affect business
situations. Numerous case studies and hundreds of handwriting
samples are included to illustrate points made in the text.
Sackheim begins by placing graphology into historical
perspective, tracing its development from the time of Aristotle to
the present. Part I covers the process of graphology and moves from
a general discussion of handwriting through such specifics as
slant, rhythm, pressure, and size; spacing, writing speed, and
style; and straight lines, circle letters, and i-dots. The second
section presents case studies of sales people, managers,
presidents, and other jobs and demonstrates how handwriting
analysis can be an effective tool in evaluating candidates for
various types of positions. In the third section, Sackheim provides
the first complete survey of the graphology literature ever
published. Her review encompasses virtually every study written in
English since 1919 as well as over 50 articles in psychological
journals. The final chapter addresses the legal issues involved and
discusses discrimination laws and the right to privacy, U.S.
Supreme Court decisions, and Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission requirements. With the background provided here, human
resource professionals will be able to add handwriting analysis to
the tools they are already using for the selection and evaluation
of employment candidates throughout the organization.

The Magic Numbers of Dr. Matrix draws us into the intriguing and
fascinating world of numbers and number theory. "Numbers, you know,
have a mysterious life of their own. It would be naive," claims Dr.
Matrix, "to suppose that there is such a thing as a randomly
arranged group of symbols." Consider, for example, the decimal
expansion of pi. Long considered a random series, it is actually
rich with remarkable patterns. "Correctly interpreted," says Dr.
Matrix, "pi conveys the entire history of the human race." Dr.
Matrix uncovers patterns and signs that will astound you. As Dr.
Matrix demonstrates, we need only look to find clues all around us
in number and language "coincidences" that will unlock the
mysteries of the universe. In The Magic Numbers of Dr. Matrix,
Martin Gardner introduces us to this extraordinary man, Dr. Irving
Joshua Matrix. Believed by many to be the greatest numerologist who
ever lived, Dr. Matrix claims to be a reincarnation of Pythagoras.
He was, however, completely unknown to the scientific community
until Gardner wrote about him in Scientific American in 1960. That
first report and the subsequent ones that appeared with each new
encounter are collected here in their entirety. We follow Dr.
Matrix as he roams the world and assumes new identities and
discovers new manifestations of the power of numbers to explain and
predict and entertain. Always at his side is his beautiful Eurasian
daughter, Iva, who abets and protects her father in each new
adventure. As you delve into The Magic Numbers of Dr. Matrix, you
will master some significant combinatorial mathematics and number
theory. The many remarkable puzzles of Dr. Matrix are all clearly
answered in the back of the book, together with commentary and
references by Gardner to enlighten the uninitiated and entertain
the inquiring reader.
The Mandate of Heaven was originally given to King Wen in the 11th
century BC. King Wen is credited with founding the Zhou dynasty
after he received the Mandate from Heaven to attack and overthrow
the Shang dynasty. King Wen is also credited with creating the
ancient oracle known as the Yijing or Book of Changes. This book
validates King Wen's association with the Changes. It uncovers in
the Changes a record of a total solar eclipse that was witnessed at
King Wen's capital of Feng by his son King Wu, shortly after King
Wen had died (before he had a chance to launch the full invasion).
The sense of this eclipse as an actual event has been overlooked
for three millennia. It provides an account of the events
surrounding the conquest of the Shang and founding of the Zhou
dynasty that has never been told. It shows how the earliest layer
of the Book of Changes (the Zhouyi) has preserved a hidden history
of the Conquest.
The extraordinary life story of psychic and clairvoyant, Mia Dolan,
the new Betty Shine. Contents * Mia Dolan is one of the UK's most
eminent and extraordinary psychics whose work has taken her from
private readings to 'ghostbusting' to psychic demonstrations in
front of hundreds of people. Her abilities have made her one of the
most sought-after psychics in the country. * An ordinary woman
brought up in a working-class family on the Isle of Sheppey, she
had her first out-of-body experience at the age of 12 when she was

dramatic readings that she has given including the man who came to
ask her where his missing wife was - she knew instantly that she
was dead, and the body was later found exactly as Mia described.
The book recounts her activities as a 'ghostbuster' and exorcist,
and includes stories of the haunted Drury Lane Theatre in London, a
haunted theme park, and sightings of earth-bound spirits - both
good and bad. * 'I want people to know there is more to life than
what we call reality, more than what we can see - and it is not as
far beyond our reach as we imagine. It is ordinary, everyday, here
and now, in this minute. And it is magical, a gift.'

time for in-depth study of this ancient science.
Shadow work-the exploration of the darker side of oneself and the
world-is often misunderstood. It is not about hiding in the
darkness, but instead about a rewarding process of
self-transformation unlocked by understanding all facets of
yourself. In The Oracle of Pluto artist Rose Ides and author Aubrey
Houdeshell use Plutonian archetypes to guide the user through the
process of shadow work. Whimsical illustrations that nod to shadow
puppetry enhance the process of unearthing this other side of
ourselves, allowing for potent transformations for seekers of all
kinds. This set includes: * 55 full-colour oracle cards. These
vibrantly illustrated cards (3 X 5") depict images of hands
projecting shadow puppets of archetypes like the Crow, the Tiger,
and the Spider. * A 112-page paperback guidebook. This enclosed
guide will help the user get in touch with their undiscovered self
through the themes of self-awareness, shadow, transformation,
empowerment, evolution and integration. * Magnetic closure case.
This durable magnetic closure case is perfectly sized for travel or
display, and holds the paperback book and cards securely in
dedicated sleeves.

Translations of the Yi jing into western languages have been biased
towards the yili ('meaning and pattern') tradition, whereas studies
of the xiangshu ('image and number') tradition - which takes as its
point of departure the imagery and numerology associated with
divination and its hexagrams, trigrams, lines, and related charts
and diagrams - has remained relatively unexplored. This major new
reference work is organised as a Chinese-English encyclopedia,
arranged alphabetically according to the pinyin romanisation, with
Chinese characters appended. A character index as well as an
English index is included. The entries are of two kinds: technical
terms and various other concepts related to the 'image and number'
tradition, and bio-bibliographical information on Chinese Yi jing
scholars. Each entry in the former category has a brief explanation
that includes references to the origins of the term,
cross-references, and a reference to an entry giving a more
comprehensive treatment of the subject.
In this updated edition of The Tarot Handbook, now with a new introduction by the author, Angeles Arrien takes tarot beyond the limits of the fortune-telling realm and shows us how this time-honored application is both a visual and symbolic map of consciousness, and a source of ancient wisdom. An exciting handbook for either a beginning or an ardent student of the tarot, it contains a multitude of charts, spreads, illustrations of the Thoth Deck, and other methodology tools for anyone looking for insights into personal and spiritual development. An anthropologist who specializes in cross-cultural myths, Arrien demonstrates how the seventy-eight figures of the tarot are portraitures and archetypes that are prevalent in the collective human experience. The author teaches us to use this realization to look beyond our cultural viewpoint or bias when we approach the tarot, and to rely instead on these more important universal principles, thereby deepening the quality and accuracy of our interpretations and expanding our awareness of the human psyche. A significant and classic piece of tarot literature, The Tarot Handbook is both a required manual for teachers and students of the subject, and an accessible and fascinating exploration of cultural anthropology.
