Today there is huge public interest in Spiritualism, the psychic world and the field of the paranormal. But as yet there is no clear and authoritative guide to its wide range of terminology. The Dictionary is a comprehensive guide to the essential terms used in all aspects of Spiritualism and other psychic fields, written in simple everyday language. From important psychics and Spiritualists, to key concepts and terms, this book is an indispensible companion to Spiritualism and beyond, also covering the fields of parapsychology and psychical research in accessible fashion. Also containing a handy reference list of Spiritualist churches and organisations worldwide.
Early in the 20th century, geographers devoted a lot of time attempting to draw boundaries around geographical regions. Their failure was a reminder of the impossibility of drawing sharp lines around areas which gradually merge into their neighbours. Mid Anglia comprises the new counties of Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire; its prosperous acres also broadly correspond to those occupied by the ancient Saxon kingdom of the Middle Angles. As such, the region contains the best assemblage of Saxon churches in England; the college buildings of Cambridge; and many fine post-medieval buildings such as Wimpole Hall and Kirby Hall. Author Christopher Taylor, the eminent landscape historian, has written a fascinating account of Mid Anglia's formation and growth since prehistoric times. This volume is one of a series of four National Trust Histories which seeks to illuminate the landscapes of today by looking at the natural and human influences which have forged their distinctive characters.
