John Muir's favourite story of his classic adventure on an Alaskan glacier with the dog Stickeen - now retold in modern language with stunning illustrations for another generation of children to enjoy. This is a compelling story of the developing relationship between Muir and an aloof, unfriendly little dog, Stickeen. After becoming stranded on the glacier, they reach safety with the help of a courageous trip over an ice bridge. Stickeen's aloofness is then replaced by rapturous emotion and his unfriendliness towards Muir turns to adoration.

Each of these 180 cards is carefully selected from A Course of Love to remind you that you are, in truth, an embodiment of love. They will remind you of your wholeheartedness. They will remind you of the wondrous realm of unity and relationship that is your true nature when fear is left behind. These beautiful cards can be shared among a group, or slipped into a lunchbox or a note to a friend, or simply be a daily companion. In conjunction with reading ACOL, they can become reminders along the path to rediscovering your true Self. A few years ago, three devoted readers of ACOL found themselves involved in relationship filled with chaos and confusion. Gradually, they joined together in sharing ACOL and making these quotation cards from ACOL's brilliant messages. Through ACOL and their healing dialogue, they found clarity and peace in relationship, and they found each other. “For those ready for a new way the time of battles has ended. ... They are ready to come home to the way of the heart.” - A Course of Love A.21

This book arose when Paula Payne Hardin led an A Course of Love sharing group. She selected "highlights" from each A Course of Love chapter and shared them with her group. HIGHLIGHTS FROM A COURSE OF LOVE is a compilation of what she shared. The book consists entirely of A Course of Love text that Paula typed out for her group. It's a helpful way to view (and share) the essence of each chapter.

First published in 1937, Israel Regardie's The Golden Dawn has become the most influential modern handbook of magical theory and practice. In this new, definitive edition, noted scholar John Michael Greer has taken this essential resource back to its original, authentic form. With added illustrations, a twenty-page colour insert, additional original material, and refreshed design and typography, this powerful work returns to its true stature as a modern masterpiece. An essential textbook for students of the occult, The Golden Dawn includes occult symbolism and Qabalistic philosophy, training methods for developing magical and clairvoyant powers, rituals that summon and banish spiritual potencies, secrets of making and consecrating magical tools, and more.

Today the Golden Dawn is one of the most sought-after and respected systems of magic in the world. Over a century old, it is considered the capstone of the Western Esoteric Tradition. Yet many of the available books on the subject are too complex or overwhelming for readers just beginning to explore alternative spiritual paths. The Essential Golden Dawn is for those who simply want to find out what the Golden Dawn is and what it has to offer.

This updated edition of From Dawn to Dusk features new text and photographs to cover the latest advances in photographic technology. The book’s unique structure leads the reader on an hour-by-hour, picture-by-picture journey from dawn to dusk, and into night, with each chapter focussing on the benefits and challenges of shooting at that particular time of the day.The book is structured around the available light during the different times of the day, highlighting suitable landscape types, styles of photography and processing techniques for each moment. There are regular technique panels to help readers hone their camera skills, and each chapter concludes with an awe-inspiring double-page image that demonstrates the results that are possible – accompanied by an extended caption and a personal anecdote from the photographer. One of the key purposes of the book is to illustrate that – contrary to common belief – you don’t always need the perfect light or the best time of day to shoot great landscapes. There are opportunities throughout each day (and night), and in different light and weather, to create fantastic images. The theme is reflected in a design that leads the reader from dark to bright to dark once more, reflecting the light in the images. The result is a uniquely engaging guide that will help the reader to become a master of light: that key component of all landscape photography.

This gorgeously illustrated book examines the practice and materials of a prominent Abstract Expressionist The career of the German-American painter and educator Hans Hofmann (1880-1966) describes the arc of artistic modernism from pre-World War I Munich and Paris to mid-twentieth-century Greenwich Village. His career also traces the transatlantic engagement of modern painting with the materials of its own making, a relationship that is perhaps still not completely understood. In these interrelated narratives, Hofmann is a central protagonist, providing a vital link between nineteenth- and twentieth-century art practice and between European and American modernism. The remarkable vitality of his later work affords insight not only into the style but also the literal substance of this formative period of artistic and material innovation. This richly illustrated book, the fourth in the Getty Conservation Institute's Artist's Materials series, presents a thorough examination of Hofmann's late-career materials. Initial chapters present an informative overview of Hofmann's life and work in Europe and America and discuss his crucial role in the development of Abstract Expressionism.Subsequent chapters present a detailed analysis of Hofmann's materials and techniques and explore the relationship of the artist's mature palette to shifts in the style and aging characteristics of his paintings.The book concludes with lessons for the conservation of modernist paintings generally, and particularly those that incorporate both traditional and modern paint media. This book will be of value to conservators, art historians, conservation scientists, and general readers with an interest in modern art.
