What is sandplay? Can it help adults as well as children? Originally published in 1992, the late Joel Ryce-Menuhin, leading exponent of sandplay, gives an engaging account of this increasingly popular Jungian therapy, drawing on his own wide experience of using sandplay with patients of all ages and backgrounds. He shows how it can help patients to express 'beyond words and before words' the deepest archetypal images from the unconscious, and how effective sandplay can be in the healing of pathology, neurosis and grief. A former concert pianist, who became a Jungian analyst, he was the first to introduce Jungian sandplay therapy to Britain.
"Jung and the Monotheisms" brings together a range of scholars to provide an exploration of some of the essential aspects of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The contributors include leading Jungian analysts and scholars, among them Baroness Vera von der Heydt, Ann Belford Ulanov and Murray Stein. They bring to bear psychological, religious and historical perspectives in an attempt to uncover the nature and psychology of the three monotheisms. The text provides a fresh and profound source of interpretation and comparison of Islam within the western psyche. The editor, Jungian analyst Joel Ryce-Menuhin, is especially concerned to bring both the essential and comparative elements of the religious psychology of Islam to the attention of the contemporary reader and to provide a forum for an increased dialogue between the three monotheisms.

Yehudi Menuhin shares with the reader his unique store of understanding about the violin, about how to exercise and practise, about the techniques of performance. His reflections on the nature and scope of his instrument are profoundly illuminating and his theories on interpretation particularly valuable. A section on the violinist as teacher/student contains a fascinating transcript of a lesson with Yehudi Menuhin, who also writes separately about the violinist as orchestral player, leader, chamber music player, recitalist and soloist. William Primrose writes the distinguished monograph on the viola and describes the instrument as 'a violin with a college education'. He was an acknowledged technical master of the viola who, along with Lionel Tertis, was one of the finest exponents of this beautiful instrument of the 20th century. Denis Stevens, the British musicologist and specialist in early music, provides and interesting chapter on the history of the violin and looks in detail at the monumental challenge that is Bach's Six Solos for Violin without Bass Accompaniment better known as the Sonatas and Partitas for Violin.
