Already reprinted many times and constantly in demand. "As a child Helen Macdonald was determined to become a falconer. She learned the terminology and read all the classic books, including T.H. White's masterpiece, The Goshawk. She worked in falconry and raptor conservation for many years before becoming a historian of science. But when her father dies and she is knocked sideways by grief, she becomes obsessed with the idea of training her own goshawk." "She collects a female gos from a Scottish quayside and takes her home to Cambridge. Then she fills the freezer with hawk food and unplugs her phone, ready to embark on the difficult, ancient business of manning and training the hawk." "To train a hawk you must watch it like a hawk, and so gain the ability to predict what it will do next. Eventually you don't see the hawk's body language at all. You seem to feel what it feels. The hawk's apprehension becomes your own. As the days passed and I put myself in the hawk's wild mind to tame her, my humanity was burning away." MacDonald also discusses T.H. White and some aspects of the pre- and post-war falconry scene, providing an interesting counterpoint to the impassioned self-reflection of the remainder of the book. PREVIOUS PRICE £20.00.

Paperback. Condition: Gut. 132 p. Book with signs of handling and partly soiled, but clean inside. - Few men have had as profound and revolutionary an effect on the thinking of our times as has Sigmund Freud. Yet controversy still rages around his work. He is more discussed, damned, and defended than he is understood. Dr. Gregory Zilboorg's authoritative presentation of the meaning of Freud answers a widely felt need for a concise synthesis of Freud's theories. A leading American psychiatrist, author of the definitive A History of Medical Psychology, and editor of the Psychoanalytic Quarterly, Dr. Zilboorg translates his professional knowledge of the subject into easily understood laymen's terms. He gives a clear ex- planation of such central subjects as the dynamic role of the sub- conscious, the theory of sex, and the theory of instincts. At the same time, he corrects many common misunderstandings of Freud's concepts, presenting them in their historical perspective. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.
