The exploration of the psyche in non-ordinary states of consciousness provides access to powerful transformative experiences that can lead us towards a more complete experience of being human, while also yielding extraordinary insights into the ultimate nature of reality. In this book, Renn Butler explains how to use archetypal astrology as a guide to the transpersonal journey. Described by Stanislav Grof as "the Rosetta Stone of consciousness research," archetypal astrology is based on a correspondence between planetary alignments and archetypal patterns in human experience. Here, by drawing on the work of Grof and Richard Tarnas, Butler systematically describes the archetypal themes associated with each of the major planetary combinations studied in astrology and considers how these themes might manifest and be supported in deep psychological self-exploration. Based on thirty years of research, and illustrated with evocative mandala drawings, Pathways to Wholeness is an indispensable reference book for explorers of the inner worlds.

Drawing on research in the fields of cognitive and developmental psychology, attachment, trauma, and neuroscience, as well as 20 years in forensic and private practice, Paul Renn deftly illustrates the ways in which this research may be used to inform an integrated empirical/hermeneutic model of clinical practice. He suggests that silent, invisible processes derived from the past maintain non-optimal ways of experiencing and relating in the present, and that a neuroscience understanding of the dynamic nature of memories, and of the way in which the implicit and explicit memory systems operate and interact, is salient to a concomitant understanding of trauma, personality development, and therapeutic action. Specifically, Renn argues that an intersubjective psychodynamic model can use the power of an emotionally meaningful therapeutic relationship to gradually facilitate both relational and neurological changes in patients with trauma histories. Taken as a whole, these themes reflect a paradigmatic shift in psychoanalytic thinking about clinical work and the process of change.

In this catalogue, published to accompany the exhibition at Boston University Art Gallery from November 2005 to January 2006, Hills (art history, Boston U.) and Renn (American art, Boston U.) present the art collection of George Wein, founder of the Newport Jazz Festival, and his wife Joyce. The collection consists of paintings, sculptures, prints, drawings, and a quilt-- done from the 1920s to the 1990s by African American artists, with many showing the influence of music and African art. Some of the artists are Jacob Lawrence, Bruce Brice, Allan Rohan Crite, Bauford Delaney, Betye Saar, Hughie Lee-Smith, Norman Lewis, Romare Bearden, and musician Miles Davis. Each piece is accompanied by a description and biographical information. Distributed by the U. of Washington Press. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

A fundamentally new approach to the history of science and technologyThis book presents a new way of thinking about the history of science and technology, one that offers a grand narrative of human history in which knowledge serves as a critical factor of cultural evolution. Jürgen Renn examines the role of knowledge in global transformations going back to the dawn of civilization while providing vital perspectives on the complex challenges confronting us today in the Anthropocene―this new geological epoch shaped by humankind.Renn reframes the history of science and technology within a much broader history of knowledge, analyzing key episodes such as the evolution of writing, the emergence of science in the ancient world, the Scientific Revolution of early modernity, the globalization of knowledge, industrialization, and the profound transformations wrought by modern science. He investigates the evolution of knowledge using an array of disciplines and methods, from cognitive science and experimental psychology to earth science and evolutionary biology. The result is an entirely new framework for understanding structural changes in systems of knowledge―and a bold new approach to the history and philosophy of science.Written by one of today's preeminent historians of science, The Evolution of Knowledge features discussions of historiographical themes, a glossary of key terms, and practical insights on global issues ranging from climate change to digital capitalism. This incisive book also serves as an invaluable introduction to the history of knowledge.

It's winter, and Wolf, Torak's beloved pack-brother, has been captured by an unknown foe. In a desperate bid to rescue him, Torak and Renn must brave the frozen wilderness of the Far North. As they battle for survival amid howling blizzards and the ever-present menace of the great white bear, their friendship is tested to the breaking point, and Torak is forced to get closer to his enemies than ever before. . . . Soul Eater is a haunting story of loyalty and loss, a chilling portrayal of the nature of evil, and the next step in the perilous journey that began with Wolf Brother and Spirit Walker.

In his War Books Cyril Falls expresses uncertainty whether this book should be classed as fiction or reminiscence, eventually plumping for the former but based on personal experiences. The Times Literary Supplement of the day comments that he [Renn] recorded his impressions with that extreme simplicity which is one of the highest forms of literary art. The author is the central figure who begins the war as a lance corporal and finishes as a sergeant having served on the Western Front from beginning to end, from the invasion of Belgium to the armistice. He was wounded on the Somme and again during the March offensive. His vivid descriptions of the fighting - the Somme, the 1917 Aisne-Champagne battle, the trenches and the final German offensive quite clearly, to my mind, reflect what he personally went through, and the result is a Great War classic.

With contributions by Ross Barrett, Michelle DuBois, Judith Hoos Fox, Sandra Grindlay, Stephanie Mayer Heydt, Anna Lee Kamplain, Kevin Moore, Virginia Raguin, Melissa Renn, Kerry Schauber, and Miriam Stewart This handsome book is the first to appear in a series of three volumes that will catalogue Harvard University’s distinguished collection of American paintings. It documents nearly 500 paintings, watercolors, pastels, and stained-glass windows many of which have never been published before by artists born between 1826 and 1856. The book features works by Albert Bierstadt, Winslow Homer, John La Farge, John Singer Sargent, J. A. M. Whistler, and Sarah Wyman Whitman, along with numerous less-known but important artists. Entries that draw on new research and scholarship accompany the works. Included is an introduction by Theodore Stebbins, Jr., outlining Harvard’s collecting history and an essay by Virginia Raguin introducing Harvard’s Memorial Hall and its twenty-one masterworks in stained glass. Also included are eighty-three works by Charles Herbert Moore, artist, educator, and the Fogg Art Museum’s first director.

Here are plans and instructions for building all three of the world famous Tolman skiffs: the Standard. Wide-body and Jumbo. Building a Tolman skiff is a project suited to the abilities of the average amateur woodworker. As Renn Tolman said many times, 'Here's a boat you can build with common tools, common skill, and common materials.' In Alaska, the word 'skiff' calls to mind an open, outboard-powered boat of wood or aluminum, which is seaworthy, simple to build and cheap to run. Starting in 1973 Renn began a quest to build the perfect plywood skiff. The first improvement was then-new epoxy construction. Then in 1980 he substituted quick-to-build bulkhead-and-stringer construction for traditional ribbed framing, which eliminated the need for expensive 'clear' lumber and simplified the building process. In 1986 he replaced the flat bottom common to most skiffs with an easy riding modified vee. To form the complex bottom shape he adopted stitch-and­-glue construction. Once the construction process was perfected, Renn brought out two larger models, reflecting the need for skiffs large enough to have cabins and to handle the new, heavier four-stroke engines. This book contains very detailed plans for how to build all three of the skiff hulls and the information necessary for adding many options such as decks, storage lockers, steering consoles, and a variety of cabins. The book is 8 1/2 x 11 inches in size and has 250 pages. There are 175 drawings and over 100 photos.

Neuware -Die erste Hälfte der 1970er Jahre war eine Blütezeit der Renn-Tourenwagen. Legendär sind die Duelle Ford gegen BMW, aber auch Alfa Romeo hatte oft ein entscheidendes Wörtchen bei der Vergabe von Siegen und Meistertiteln mitzureden.In Deutschland waren Tourenwagen die Einstiegsformel für alle jungen Nachwuchsfahrer, die später international Karriere machten. Jochen Mass, Hans-Joachim Stuck, Hans Heyer, Klaus Ludwig, sie alle mussten sich zu Beginn ihrer Laufbahn erst einmal im geschlossenen Cockpit behaupten.In der Europameisterschaft trafen sie nicht nur auf nationale und internationale Tourenwagen-Haudegen wie Toine Hezemans, Dieter Glemser, Gian Luigi Picchi, Dieter Quester und Carlo Facetti, sondern auch auf Formel-1-Piloten bis hin zu aktuellen und künftigen Weltmeistern wie Jackie Stewart und Niki Lauda.Dieses Buch erzählt von den spannenden Rennen und beschreibt die Technik aller maßgeblichen Fahrzeuge, wobei auch Marken wie Abarth, Chevrolet, Fiat, Mazda, Mercedes und Opel nicht zu kurz kommen. Ein umfassender Überblick über diese faszinierende Epoche des Tourenwagensports. 352 pp. Deutsch
