This practical guide to spiritual healing blends insightful spiritual reflection and the wisdom of hard-won experience in a reliable and inspiring handbook for developing our innate capacity for richer living and richer giving through the healing gifts of the Spirit. Many years ago, Agnes Sanford was cured of acute depression by a minister who believed in the healing power of prayer. Subsequently, she herself became very active and successful in healing others of mental and physical ailments by drawing upon the same resources for inner well-being. In The Healing Gifts of the Spirit, she shares the simple, practicable ways of self-help she discovered, and gives step-by-step advice on how to help others. She discusses not only her own cure but also the gift of healing in general and its growing recognition in the contemporary church. She devotes a chapter to the gift of miracles, and another -- especially interesting -- to the gift of tongues. Her exploration of these topics is richly inspiring, offering readers one of the most detailed, informative discussions of the nature, dynamics, and potential rewards of these unique manifestations of God's presence. At the same time, she demonstrates how anyone can draw upon this healing power for good in the world. As evidence of how these gifts can -- and do -- reveal themselves, the author cites many examples from observation and personal encounters with the healing power of the Spirit.

This volume documents the lives and work of pioneering women
archaeologists in the southeastern United States from the 1920s
through the 1960s. A landmark portrayal of pioneering women in
science, reissued on its 25th anniversary Praise for the first
edition: "Highly recommended for any archaeologist interested in
the history of the discipline."--Choice "An important addition to
the history of southeastern archaeology, bringing to light the
often undervalued or forgotten contributions of the many women who
helped to make archaeology what it is today."--Bulletin of the
History of Archaeology "This is a needed history, providing details
both mundane and critical, personal and professional, feminist and
archaeological."--Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences
"Demonstrat[es] that each woman, regardless of how, when, or why
she came to Southeastern archaeology, has made significant
contributions to the field, clearing the path for women today to
pursue successful careers in archaeology."--North American
Archaeologist "The regional focus lends an intimate and immediate
quality to this series of biographical-historical narratives. . . .
[It is] heartening to know that some among us have thought to
capture these women's stories for others to tell in the future and
to provide a basis for better understanding how our roles and
histories influence our work as archaeologists."--Journal of
Anthropological Research "These fascinating brief portraits,
variously based on documents, interviews, or autobiographical
statements, reveal much of the changing circumstances in the
context of which women's work must be understood."--National
Women's Studies Association Journal "A readable book that provides
a lot of interesting material on the history of Southeastern
archaeology."--Journal of Alabama Archaeology "A delight to read,
often humorous, sometimes sobering. It has much to offer readers,
ranging from the history of archaeology and the role of the WPA in
southeastern archaeology, to an intimate view of careers of
influential women in science, to discussions of the study of gender
in history and archaeology. It is a volume to be read and
shared."--Arkansas Historical Quarterly "An easily read,
thought-provoking book."--St. Augustine Archaeological Association
Quarterly Book Review Updated with a new preface on the 25th
anniversary of its first publication, this volume documents the
lives and work of pioneering women archaeologists in the
southeastern United States from the 1920s through the 1960s. Some
of these women were working at the time of the book's first
publication in 1999, and they either wrote their own stories or
were interviewed. Others were no longer living; their biographies
are gleaned from archival research. Rich with humor, tragedy, and
important information for the history of archaeology in the South
and beyond, as well as anthropology in general, this book includes
the story of African American women excavators on WPA crews during
the Great Depression; tales of innovative lab work, adventurous
fieldwork, and public archaeology; and provocative discussions of
women in archaeology and of gender in the archaeological record.
