Atropologi ((af græsk anthologia, (der er sammensat af anthos "blomst" og logi "samling"), der betyder blomstersamling)). Der giver afledning samling til at samle, en samling digte, kortere litterære prosastykker eller eksempler på filosofiske eller videnskabelige tekster. Læsebøger og salmebøger er antologier, men en antologi kan også gennem sit udvalg karakterisere et idégrundlag eller et formsprog som er fælles for en gruppe forfattere i en bestemt periode. Antologier er en vigtig litteraturhistorisk kilde til forståelse af tidsånd og tidens læserpublikum.

Paperback. 430 sider. Som ny (bortset fra navn på indersiden af forsiden). Fra bagsiden af bogen: "In this book, Ernest Becker challenges the 'disinterested' approach of contemporary social science. He seeks to fulfill the urgent need for a science which is humanly significant--a 'science of man' which truly works for the benefit of human beings. Here, he pulls together the critical ideas of psychology, sociology, psychiatry, history and philosophy in a unified science of man, offering a vivid call to action for anyone concerned with the future development of the human community. The book bristles with astonishing insights and keen judgments. A work of vast historical sweep, it is grand in scope yet intensely human in perspective. ERNEST BECKER (1924-1974) won the Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction in 1974 for 'The Denial of Death.' A distinguished social theorist and popular teacher of anthropology, sociology, and social psychology he was also the author of "the birth and Death of Meaning', 'Revolution in Psychiatry', 'Angel in Armor and 'Escape from Evil.'
Paperback på 315 sider. Som ny, ingen knæk i ryggen, streger, lugt osv. (dog ses navn på tidl. ejer på indersiden af forsiden.) - In Journey to Ixtlan, Carlos Castaneda introduces readers to this new approach for the first time and explores, as he comes to experience it himself, his own final voyage into the teachings of don Juan, sharing with us what it is like to truly "stop the world" and perceive reality on his own terms. Originally drawn to Yaqui Indian spiritual leader don Juan Matus for his knowledge of mind-altering plants, bestselling author Carlos Castaneda immersed himself in the sorcerer's magical world entirely. Ten years after his first encounter with the shaman, Castaneda examines his field notes and comes to understand what don Juan knew all along--that these plants are merely a means to understanding the alternative realities that one cannot fully embrace on one's own.

History of Slavery tells the story of the development of slavery, describing the trans-Atlantic trade that brought 11 million slaves from Africa to the Americas in the course of 300 years and reviews the life of the slaves under the forcible subjugation and exploitation by other human beings. In strictly objective terms, this book deals with the historical controversies that have surrounded the study of slavery. Illustrated with over 300 pictures, including 40 in full color, drawn from archives around the world to highlight vital facets of the subject; it also includes eyewitness accounts and other documentary evidence that complement the text. The book also traces the history of the abolition movement, beginning in eighteenth-century England (one of the prime moves in establishing the slave trade in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries).
Denne meget spændende bog er skrevet af indianereksperten "Skrivende Pen" redaktør Otto Walsted.
Puh-Ute-folkets saga, er her skildret så levende og så sagligt korrekt, som kun "Skrivende Pen" kan gøre det. Stammens saga slutter så sent som 1911 efter en kortvarig kamp med de hvide.
Stammens saga understreger stærkt, at den indianske arv, som præsident Kennedy gør sig til talsmand for, er stor og værdifuld, nok værd at værne og minde om.

Convincing evidence that the Egyptian, Sumerian, and Dogon civilizations were founded by aliens from the Sirius star system who are now ready to return - Updated with 140 pages of new scientific evidence that solidifies the hypothesis that the KGB, CIA, and NASA attempted to suppress - An awe-inspiring work of research that calls for a profound reappraisal of our role in the universe - Over 10,000 copies sold in its first two months of release in Britain Publication of The Sirius Mystery in 1976 set the world abuzz with talk of an extraterrestrial origin to human civilization and triggered a 15-year persecution campaign against Robert Temple by the KGB, CIA, NASA, and other government agencies. Undaunted, however, Temple is back, with 140 pages of new scientific evidence that makes his hypothesis more compelling than ever. Many authors have speculated on the subject of extraterrestrial contact, but never before has such detailed evidence been presented. Temple applies his in-depth knowledge of ancient history, mythology, Pythagorean physics, chaos theory, and Greek, to a close examination of the measurements of the Great Pyramid of Giza, which was built to align directly with the star Sirius. He concludes that the alien civilization of Sirius and our own civilization are part of the same harmonic system, and are destined to function and resonate together. His findings warrant a profound reappraisal of our role in the universe.
