She struck like an earthquake. Walter lifted his eyes from his desk and experienced a tremor that snapped his pencil in two. The cause is no ordinary force of nature. It's Luna, a fascinating enigma. Just one look transforms mild-mannered Walter into an obsessed love-hound.

This is the first study in English of Altichiero, one of the most important painters of the later Italian Trecento. Altichiero worked exclusively for the despotic rulers of Verona and Padua, translating their chivalric aspirations into fresco cycles of extraordinary beauty and originality. Altichiero, whose work is indebted to Giotto, worked in close collaboration with Petrarch. In addition to an informative catalogue and bibliography, the book also contains a wealth of illustrations in both color and black and white that bring the work and world of Altichiero to life.

Examining the development of the airship, this detailed history ranges from the pre-World War I dirigibles up to date. Covering the airship in the UK, France, Germany, Italy, and the U.S., author John Richards has delved into every aspect. The book ranges from the first fully controlled powered flight and the flight around the Eiffel Tower, the failed attempts to cross the Atlantic and the first London-Paris flight, to the many uses of the airship in times of war, including anti-submarine campaigns, convoy escorts and patrols. Between the wars Arctic expeditions were undertaken and events included a successful Atlantic crossing, Graf Zeppelin’s 21-day round-the-world flight, a service to South America and the launch of the Hindenburg. World War II and a discussion of the airship’s functions in the more modern world round off a fascinating and definitive guide to the airship.

"Exorcism, Christian exorcism that is, is the Church's compassionate response to people (and places) needing spiritual surgery when, acting with Christ's authority, the Church, through individuals -- makes his victory real in a particular situation." With these words John Richards sounds the keynote of his unusually penetrating and informed inquiry into a subject some say is talked and written about entirely too much: the demonic in general and exorcism in particular. Father Richards makes an entirely unique contribution to the continuing discussion of the nature and practice of exorcism by concentrating on its role in the healing ministry of the Church. Although he provides a thorough survey of the many manifestations of the occult, he insists that his book is "more about God and about people then it is about the demonic." Healing, he notes, is the dominant theme of the "Good News." As writers from biblical times to the present have agreed, the human condition is one of sickness and the Church exists to mediate God's answer to that sickness. Drawing upon the experiences of many priests, ministers, and lay people who have shared their insights with him, Richards shows his readers that exorcism, properly understood, takes its place with prayer, confession, Holy Communion, laying-on-of-hands, and Anointing with oil by means by which the Church can render aid to people afflicted with physical as well as mental illness. Deliverance from evil, as our Lord's life so clearly shows, is part of the Gospel and essential to the work of his Church.
