"illustrated with 60 photos and 49 line drawings". archaeology. ancient history. history of astronomy. prehistory. mythology. folklore. ancient religion. cosmology. archaeoastronomy. astroarchaeology. astromythology.~ Gerald Hawkins, author of Stonehenge Decoded and Splendor in the Sky, here explores many intriguing facets of the wisdom of ancient man. First he tells about the astro~archaeological work done at Stonehenge itself, that eighth wonder of the ancient world~an architectural gem, awesome, haunting, strangely beautiful. On the day of the summer solstice, his group took pictures of the rising sun over the heel stone, Hawkins considers just what it is that makes a civilization. Again he goes to make a study of enormous ancient drawings in the Peruvian desert, those vast linear Nasca lines which can be appreciated only from the air. Yet their makers couldn't have seen them from the air. How and why were they made? Hawkins and his associates made measurements and calculations but came to the conclusion that they are not oriented toward sun, moon, or stars. Their mystery remains unsolved~gigantic lizard, spider, flower, monkey. The author explores Machu Picchu and its temple. He reviews Heyerdahl's theory of Kon~Tiki and the passage to the Pacific islands from the west coast of South America, Hawkins then explores the activities of the United States mound builders, some of whose works are oriented toward the sun. He looks at Mayan ruins in Central America. He makes astro~surveys of the temples of the Nile, the Great Temple of Karnak, the temple of Amon~Ra, where the pharaoh made his sun observations, and other temples. Hawkins' assumption is that anything which shows today as clearly astronomical was known in antiquity to the builders. He offers perceptive speculations on how much longer our civilization will continue, and digs into many legends and myths concerned with the ancient civilizations which still have reference in the modern world.…

Half the world's population lives under political systems that claim their inspiration from Karl Marx. For someone so influential, it is surprising that so little has been known of his private life and that his ideas were so misunderstood that they could plausibly be reduced to a caricature both by his opponents and his defenders. Yet it is a fact that there has been no full~length biography of any authority since that of Franz Mehring, published in 1920; and too many accounts have suffered from patent political bias. Since Mehring's time the publication of two major sources~the unexpurgated Marx~Engels correspondence and many of Marx's hitherto unpublished writings ~ have made a reevaluation necessary. The wealth of information contained in these letters and manuscripts alters very considerably the traditional portrait of Marx. David McLellan's balanced and comprehenaivs biography presents for the first time a full picture of Marx~in his private life, as a political activist, and as a thinker. The full range of sources ( many of them difficult of access) is drawn upon and the reader can follow the fascinating story of Marx's marriage and family life amid extraordinary privations, his activities in the Communist League and the First International, and the full extent and subtlety of his thought as it developed. The result is that at last the general public has access to a wealth of detail that will enable a judgment on possibly the most influential thinker of our age.…

'What shall we do to be saved?' There are several possible answers. Two are both primary and primitive: the recourse to magic; and the belief in a new world order imposed from above, 'a millennium' as it is called in Christendom. These two responses to social distress and cultural shock are seen most vividly where 'ThirdWorld' peoples have felt the impact of the expanding West, where they have encountered modernity and interpreted it either as magic or as the millennium, or which, by magic or by faith in a millennium, they have sought to dispel. Yet magic does not work and the millennium does not come. In this study, Bryan Wilson shows what happens when magic proves inadequate and when prophecy fails. The two basic responses change, and men in the Third World find other modes of adjustment to the alien culture that has engulfed them. Using insights drawn from his earlier studies of sects in Western Christendom, the author shows how changing social needs give rise to these new religious responses: he examines newly arising religious movements from Papua to Brazil, and from the American Indian frontier to the West Coast of Africa. Rejecting both simple chronology and cultural peculiarities as an adequate guide to these movements, he seeks to make sense of them from a sociological perspective and provides theoretical unity and coherence to the study of fascinatingly diverse religious phenomena, ranging from Hau Hau to Mau Mau and from Peyotism to Pentecostalism. Students of social change ~sociologists, historians, political scientists and anthropologists~will find much of importance in this work, which will command no less attention from social psychologists and students of religion.…
