Описание:
This foundational study of gemstone lore presents a comprehensive history of precious and semi-precious stones and a survey of their particular properties. Author George Frederick Kunz--America's foremost gemologist, gemstone and collector of the period--reveals a treasure trove of superstitions, symbolisms, and metaphysical properties associated with specific gems through the ages.
In addition to explaining the qualities of each special stone, Kunz explores:
- crystal balls and crystal gazing; - discussions of protective talismans and amulets; - illuminating information about planetary and astral influences; - gems for spiritual and healing use.
Kunz shares his genuine passion for the subject, with a deep, academic, and professional understanding of the wide range of source material. Elements of folklore, cultural beliefs, strange characteristics, occult attributes, birthstone designations, and traditional magical and healing properties of gemstones are all thoroughly reviewed.
Illustrated with original plates and drawing from a remarkable collection of ancient lapidary tomes, oral traditions, biblical writings, religious stories, legends, archeological findings, this valuable modern classic makes fascinating reading. This is an essential reference for any gem lover or precious stone collector's library.

Описание: This book examines the expanding reach of the securities market in the US financial system. It analyzes key elements such as the rise of technology, the role of hedge funds, and the bloated agency system, and argues that the current structure is doomed to fail. It suggests a new structure capable of withstanding the challenges of modern markets.
Chronicles of Australian Soccer details the development of football (or soccer as it was then known) in Australia in a period where records barely existed - from 1859 to 1949.
It does so within a context of Australia's geographic and cultural isolation, and the attitudes towards race and class.
Finding some of these records has meant years of dedicated research to track clubs and games from every part of the country, presented in an easy-to-follow timeline.
Chronicles of Australian Soccer is truly amazing in the depth and breadth of what it has unearthed and is valuable for the football anorak as well as anyone interested in how the debate about Australia's place in the world has developed. Whether a football historian or someone interested in Australia in the last half of the 19th century and first half of the 20th century, this book is phenomenal in its detail and use of references.

Описание: Approach these poems as short stories, plainspoken lyric essays, controlled arcs of a bildungsroman, then again as narrative verse. Tap Out, Edgar Kunz's debut collection, reckons with his working-poor heritage. Within are poignant, troubling portraits of blue-collar lives, mental health in contemporary America, and what is conveyed and passed on through touch and words―violent, or simply absent.
Yet Kunz's verses are unsentimental, visceral, sprawling between oxys and Bitcoin, crossing the country restlessly. They grapple with the shame and guilt of choosing to leave the culture Kunz was born and raised in, the identity crises caused by class mobility. They pull the reader close, alternating fierce whispers and proud shouts about what working hands are capable of and the different ways a mind and body can leave a life they can no longer endure. This hungry new voice asks: after you make the choice to leave, what is left behind, what can you make of it, and at what cost?

Описание: Have you ever awakened from a sleepy delirium one morning and imagined that you lived in a different and glorious world where all the recognized masterpieces in the Western pantheon of art history were painted by women? If not, no problem: The renowned and award-winning painter and illustrator Anita Kunz has imagined it for you in her hilariously inventive and masterfully executed Another History of Art. Kunz depicts the most iconic paintings in the history of art -- as if they had been painted by women. Conceived with delicious wit, boundless humor, and an eye for the telling aesthetic detail, Kunz's recreations are not only stunning paintings in their own right but a sly, revisionist social commentary on the male-dominated history of Western civilization.
What would the same paintings everyone is so familiar with look like drawn by Renйe Franзoise Magritte, Fiona Bacon, Davina Hockney, Leona Da Vinci, Gertrude Klimt, Henrietta Matisse, Francesca Goya, Paola Picasso, Fernanda Victoria Eugenia Delacroix, Wilhelmina Ottilia Dix, and over 50 other artists (let us not forget Vincenza Van Gogh)? Another History is your chance to find out. Included, on each page opposite the painting, is a single paragraph biography of each woman artist.
Another History of Art is a brilliantly satirical, and, yes, feminist, counterfactual history of art conceived, written, and painted by one of our most accomplished contemporary artists.
