Everyone needs a little magic in their lives... The Rules of Magic is the long-awaited prequel to Practical Magic, and a New York Times bestseller and Reese Witherspoon's Book Club pick! In this sparkling prequel we meet the Aunts from Practical Magic, sisters Frances and Jet and Vincent, their brother. From the beginning their mother Susanna knew they were unique: Franny with her skin as pale as milk and blood red hair, who could commune with birds; Jet as shy as she is beautiful, who knows what others are thinking, and Vincent so charismatic that he was built for trouble. Susanna needed to set some rules of magic: no walking in the moonlight, no red shoes, no wearing black, no cats, no crows, no candles and certainly, absolutely, no books about magic… But the Owens siblings are desperate to uncover who they really are. Each heads down a life-altering course, filled with secrets and truths, devastation and joy, and magic and love. Despite the warning handed down through the family for centuries – Know that for our family, love is a curse – they will all strive to break the rules and find true love.***A perfect read for crisp autumn ...

In Enchantment, he shines a light on today''s scientific breakthroughs, from quantum mechanics to the mind-body connection to non-local consciousness, that can best be explained by what we currently call magic (or psi). In short, today''s magic is the science of tomorrow. He shares his own groundbreaking research on psi phenomena, and explains how you can start utilizing these findings in your own life today.   Accessible and practical, Enchantment offers magical methods from the perspective of a scientist, demonstrating how to effect change with exercises and hands-on techniques.

A Catalogue of the Sculpture Collection at Wilton House

The Wilton House sculptures constituted one of the largest and most celebrated collections of ancient art in Europe. Originally comprising some 340 works, the collection was formed around the late 1710s and 1720s by Thomas Herbert, the eccentric 8th Earl of Pembroke, who stubbornly ‘re-baptized’ his busts and statues with names of his own choosing. His sources included the famous collection of Cardinal Mazarin, assembled in Paris in the 1640s and 1650s, and recent discoveries on the Via Appia outside Rome. Earl Thomas regarded the sculptures as ancient – some of them among the oldest works of art in existence – but in fact much of the collection is modern and represents the neglected talents of sixteenth-and seventeenth-century artists, restorers and copyists who were inspired by Greek and Roman sculpture.About half of the original collection remains intact today, adorning the Gothic Cloisters that were built for it two centuries ago. After a long decline, accelerated by the impact of the Second World War, the sculptures have been rehabilitated in recent years. They include masterpieces of Roman and early modern art, which cast fresh light on Graeco-Roman antiquity, the classical tradition, and the history of collecting.Illustrated with specially commissioned photographs, this ...

An Illustrated Catalog of American Mushrooms - US Department of Agriculture's Maurice B. Walters Collection

A fascinating exploration of the USDA’s national fungus collection, offering readers an intimate portrait of America’s elusive fungi species. The United States Department of Agriculture’s National Fungus Collections is one of the world’s largest mycological institutions, housing over a million species of fungi. Mycologist Maurice Burke Walters’s collection of fungi is also housed here—a fascinating collection revealing the often-solitary forays of the rather-retiring Walters, the then-nascent science of mycology, and the evolving interest of the USDA in documenting the nation’s fungi species (over 10,000 named species are found in the US). Alongside beautiful botanical illustrations, are field notes, observational sketches, and occasionally enigmatic photographs of fungi (within USDA laboratories, in the wild, and elsewhere). This book contains an eclectic assortment of illustrated and documented fungi species drawn from Walters collection. Encompassing contemporary meditations on ecology, mycology and pharmacology, the still-unexplored landscape of fungi knowledge is memorably demystified, perhaps, for practicing mycologists and enthusiastic foragers alike.
