Shroom

A Cultural History of the Magic Mushroom

By: Andy Letcher

Did mushroom tea kick-start ancient Greek philosophy? Was Alice's Adventures in Wonderland a thinly veiled psychedelic mushroom odyssey? Is Santa Claus really a magic mushroom in disguise? The world of the magic mushroom is a place where shamans and hippies rub shoulders with psychiatrists, poets, and international bankers. Since its rediscovery only fifty years ago, this hallucinogenic fungus, once shunned in the West as the most pernicious of poisons, has inspired a plethora of folktales and urban legends. In this timely and definitive study, Andy Letcher chronicles the history of the magic mushroom—from its use by the Aztecs of Central America and the tribes of Siberia through to the present day—stripping away the myths and taking a critical and humorous look at the drug's more recent manifestations. Informative, lively, and impeccably researched, Shroom is a unique and engaging exploration of this most extraordinary of psychedelics.

Pop Pagans

Paganism and Popular Music

By: Donna Weston,Andy Bennett

Paganism is rapidly becoming a religious, creative, and political force internationally. It has found one of its most public expressions in popular music, where it is voiced by singers and musicians across rock, folk, techno, goth, metal, Celtic, world, and pop music. With essays ranging across the US, UK, continental Europe, Australia and Asia, 'Pop Pagans' assesses the histories, genres, performances, and communities of pagan popular music. Over time, paganism became associated with the counter culture, satanic and gothic culture, rave and festival culture, ecological consciousness and spirituality, and new ageism. Paganism has used music to express a powerful and even transgressive force in everyday life. 'Pop Pagans' examines the many artists and movements which have contributed to this growing phenomenon.

A Life Worth Living

By: Andy Timblin

Several years ago while teaching an adult Sunday school class, a woman in the class said, Brother Timblin, you should write a book. I was sort of amused and said, Who would read a book that I would write? A man in the class answered, I would! That spoken word moved in my heart that day. Then just a couple of weeks ago after I had preached and was leaving the church shaking hands, a woman said to me, Brother Timblin, I love to hear you relating stories of your past ministry. When I told this to my daughter, she said, Why dont you write a book? At her word, the Holy Spirit moved my heart to write and I put the word foreword at the top of the first page. Realizing the fact that I am not a young man anymore, seventy-nine and having had some physical problems and along with taking care of my invalid wife who had a stroke three years ago, the devil said, Andy, youre too old to do that, too sick to do that, and too busy taking care of your wife to do that. But every time the devil brings negative thoughts, I know that those words are not from God, who is always positive and would not speak negatively to my spirit.

Sincerely, Andy Rooney

Sincerely, Andy Rooney

By: Andy Rooney

This is an assemblage of Rooney's innumerable and thoughtfully (mostly) sassy (always) letters responding to government and business folk, viewers of 60 Minutes, organizations asking him for a speaking engagement, lawyers, friends, those interested in religious matters, and others. And the letters are arranged into sections according to the type of recipient. Letters that prompted Mr. Rooney's replies are not listed (though Rooney's style allows one to easily understand the original letter's gist). No notes or index, but there seems little need for either. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
