As any lover of animals will tell you, creatures of the natural world bring inspiration and spiritual insight to their human admirers. In this collection of essays, ponderings, poems, and interviews, which includes contributions from Jane Goodall, Barbara Kingsolver, Ursula Le Guin, and Tess Gallagher, readers are able to glimpse the personal yet profoundly universal impact of animals on women's lives. Even more, they can experience the relational and spiritual feminine model for animal study. In their introduction, editors Linda Hogan, Deena Metzger, and Brenda Peterson explain, "This strong sense of compassion that many women bring to the study, celebration, and love of animals has been world changing and visionary. We can now say that the old guard of detached science is being replaced with the new guardians, many of them the women in this Book."
This book comes from the personal occult library of The Amazing Kreskin. Kreskin has signed both his real name (George J. Kresge) and his stage name (Kreskin) on the inside. Dated 12/31/97.
The Amazing Kreskin (1935 –2024), was a legendary mentalist who became popular on television in the 1970s. He always presented himself as a mentalist, never as a psychic, who operated on the basis of suggestion, not the paranormal or supernatural. His books, record, and board games centered around ESP were must-haves. From 1972 to 1975, Kreskin's television series The Amazing World of Kreskin was broadcast throughout Canada and the United States, it then ran from 1975 to 1978 as The New Kreskin Show. His first television appearance was on The Steve Allen Show in 1964. He went on to appear approximately 100 times on each of The Mike Douglas Show and The Merv Griffin Show, and 88 times on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. Kreskin's popularity peaked in the 1970s and early 1980s, though he continued to perform into the 2020s. He was a pop culture phenomenon.
