Avebury Henge

Meeting Place of Earth and Sky

By: Nicholas R. Mann

For one brief moment in the third millennium BCE the galaxy levelled around the horizon, bringing into view stars that would not be visible again in the northern hemisphere for twenty thousand years. The spectacular Southern Cross dominated the night sky, and it is the contention of this book that this event was marked by the Neolithic people of Britain by monuments such as Avebury. Avebury Henge marries archaeology with astronomy to show that the people who built Avebury, West Kennet long barrow and Silbury Hill aligned them not only with the cycles of the sun, moon and planets, but also with the stars.

The Red and White Springs of Avalon

By: Nicholas R. Mann,Philippa Glasson

All over the British Isles natural springs appear. Many are regarded as holy and are reputed to possess healing properties. Among the most venerated of these healing waters are the Red and White Springs that flow from the base of the famed Glastonbury Tor. In The Red & White Springs of Avalon the authors draw on alchemy and other spiritual traditions to explain the hidden powers of these two remarkable springs. They show how these ancient wisdom traditions provide important keys to the initiatory and healing secrets of Avalon. This fascinating exploration of Chalice Well, the Tor and the White Spring has become an essential guide to the mysteries of Glastonbury. Geomancer Nicholas R. Mann B.A. is the author of Glastonbury Tor, The Isle of Avalon, Energy Secrets of Glastonbury Tor, Druid Magic, The Silver Branch Cards and The Sacred Geometry of Washington DC. Philippa Glasson D.Phil. is an astrologer and seer who taught in the University of Cambridge for many years. She is the author of influential books and articles on subjects ranging from Renaissance alchemy to postmodern spirituality. Nicholas and Philippa are the joint authors of The Star Temple of Avalon.

The Dark God

A Personal Journey Through the Underworld

By: Nicholas R. Mann

It started in August of 1972. Nicholas R. Mann, like many other western spiritual seekers, journeyed to the mystic East in search of enlightenment. Instead, he descended into darkness. Set up and arrested for possession of a small quantity of hashish, Mann was imprisoned at Bayrampasa, the same hellish Turkish prison made famous by Willie Hayes in the book and the movie Midnight Express. Rather than denying the darkness and brutality of life in prison, Mann embraced it. Virtually cut off from the rest of the world, he turned to a daily practice of yoga and meditation. His prison became his monastery. Raw, emotional, and intense, The Dark God chronicles Mann's spiritual odyssey. Drawing upon the traditions of his ancestors, life in prison became a shamanic vision quest. While deep in this dark world he discovered a powerful, transformative means through which the divine masculine can at last become whole, and once more rejoin the divine feminine. The Dark God reveals the true secrets of Men's Mysteries. It brings the Dark God back into balance with the Goddess. Included are rites that will open you to the Goddess and reconcile the majesty, power, and importance of the God in your life and the world. By facing the fear and denial surrounding the mythic figure of the Dark God, Nicholas Mann sheds light on the darker side of masculine spirituality.

Avebury and the Cosmos of Our Ancestors

By: Nicholas Mann

A fresh look at the World Heritage Site that includes Avebury henge, West Kennet long barrow and Silbury Hill. Mann combines archaeology, astronomy and anthropology to offer an original and convincing account of the building of these extraordinary Neolithic monuments.

This book will help visitors and readers to see Avebury in a wholly new light - the light of the heavenly bodies that guided its Neolithic builders. Avebury Cosmos will reawaken our ancient reverence for the stars and deepen our respect for the extraordinary abilities and forgotten knowledge of our prehistoric ancestors.

Neuropsychology of the Amnesic Syndrome (PLE: Memory)

By: Alan J. Parkin,Nicholas Leng

Originally published in 1993, this book provides the clinician, researcher and student with a comprehensive account of the neuropsychology of the amnesic syndrome. The opening chapter places the amnesic syndrome within the overall context of memory disorders and provides a theoretical basis for understanding the presentation of the clinical and experimental findings which form the major part of the work. The second chapter provides an extensive account of the various methods used to assess memory and associated deficits and provides guidelines as to the most effective assessment strategy. The next five chapters are concerned with the specific aetiologies giving rise to the amnesic syndrome: Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome; Thalamic Amnesia; Medial Temporal Lobe Amnesia; Herpes Simplex Encephalitis; and ruptured aneurysms of the anterior communicating artery. Each of these chapters contains an account of the associated neuropathology, descriptions of experimental findings and illustrative case histories from the authors’ own experimental and clinical experience. The next chapter provides the reader with an account of some of the more important scientific issues that have arisen from the studies of the amnesic syndrome and a final chapter considers current and future prospects for behavioural remediation of severe memory deficit.
