Boards. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. Reprint. As a communicator, Delia Smith has always been motivated by a need whether for clear explanation of the basic skills of cooking, or, as in this book, for a simple presentation of the meaning of prayer. Writing with clarity and wisdom on a subject of de…ep personal significance, Delia Smith's daily readings draw on a wide range of writings, as well as her own experience of 'the journey into God'. Here is a simple but profound guide for ordinary people seeking deeper knowledge of God.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).

Boards. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. BCA. The fifth in the popular series of true crime anthologies provides confirmation of Sherlock Holme's belief that 'the lowest and vilest alleys in London do not present a more dreadful record of sin than does the smiling and beautiful countryside'. Again favouring mur…ders of 'the old-fashioned sort', Mr. Goodman has gathered accounts of thirteen crimes that were committed in or near country houses - most of them in Britain but also in America and France. A few of the cases remain officially unsolved - but among those are cases that seem to display a miscarriage of justice, in that an apparently guilty person, though charged, got off scot-free. Whether your regular abode is rural or urban - whether or not you are a fan of Agatha-Christie-style fiction set in country houses, you wiil, we feel sure, enjoy this bumper collection of true stories of murder in agricultural places. Very slight shelf wear to D/J.

Cloth. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 1st Guild Book Edition. Hardback. Introduction by K. M. Panikkar. This book, a Sanskrit book of about the third century, has for long been honoured in India as the earliest Indian treatise on the science and art of sex and love. It describes social customs in ea…rly India, analyses sexual techniques and comments on the many different situations in which men and women of the day might find themselves involved and how best these should be dealt with. Its purpose is to discover in what ways happiness and enjoyment can be best achieved. While sharing the Indian attitude to love as an ecstatic experience, it assumes that sexual happiness is founded on scientific knowledge and to this end it provides a series of chapters based on the practical experience of sex. In this respect it was a forerunner of the modern marriage guidance book. The Kama Sutra underlies all later Indian writings on love including Sanskirt love poetry and is a classic contribution to Indian culture. The Preface by W. G. Archer discusses the circumstances in which the translation was made, its place in Western studies of Indian culture and the respective roles of Sir Richard Burton and his friend, Forster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot. Sardar K. M. Panikkar explains in his Introduction how the Kama Sutra is valued and appreciated in India. 296 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
