Paperback. Zustand: Good. The expectations were high, and the results were record breaking. Before the 1986--87 season began, the pre-season AP poll had the Iowa Hawkeyes ranked tenth. Iowa fans suspected it might be low as they had Roy Marble, whom Sports Illustrated had compared to another number 23, Michael Jordan. The streak began at the Great Alaska Shootout and continued until they had won more consecutive games than any team in Iowa men's basketball history. This is the story of that season, the players, the coaches, and what it was like to cheer that very special team. Meeks, Brian D. (illustrator).…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. What's in a Cat's Name? In a book with a snarky anti-hero who teaches literature to the great unwashed youth of the day, there are bound to be a few literary references. You'll catch most of them.but.why did Arthur name the cat Maltese and why does he think it's clever? Arthur Byrne is a protagonist you'll root for despite your best efforts not to. His love of drink, age inappropriate women, and disdain for authority, are the top three reasons the president of the university wants him gone. Arthur's decades long writer's block is the only reason he stays. He's got nowhere to go. Wen Hu is an enthusiastic teaching assistant that doesn't get most of Arthur's jokes. She's there to help, doesn't mind being called Lou, and isn't afraid of him or his snark. The Story Underwood, Scotch, and Wry is a humorous look at social media through the eyes of a Luddite college professor. Watch as Arthur and the dean engage in a angst filled battle to end (or save) his job. This humorous fiction will keep you turning the pages. If you like social media, blogging, and mockery, you'll enjoy my first satire novel Underwood, Scotch, and Wry. And you just may be the first person who gets the Maltese reference.

John Murray, London, 1997. VII,249p. ills.(B&W photographs and line drawings. Original light blue cloth with pictorial dust wrps. spine gilt titled. The ?Daily Life of the Egyptian Gods? is an introduction to ancient Egyptian religion and at the same time a most interesting historiographic experiment. (?) It presents a general, synchronous interpretation of some two thousand years of religious history in ancient Egypt. (?) The first half of the book, ?The Gods among Themselves?, (?) is mainly based on myth and, on the whole, narrative elements of ancient Egyptian religious literature. The study of Egyptian mythology has to face, on the one hand, the extreme importance of myth demonstrated by allusions and quotations in each and every Egyptian religious text and, on the other hand, the scarcity of extant myths told in full. Meeks?s approach permits a comprehensive synthesis of Egyptian mythology, including materials from the Coffin Texts as well as the temples of the Greco-Roman period, two very large groups of texts that have only in recent decades begun to exert a substantial influence on the general and introductory literature on ancient Egyptian religion. The second half, ?Meditating between the Gods and Humankind? (?) deals with the ritual aspect of Egyptian religion. It deserves the attention of the nonspecialist because, along with its own interesting perspective, it surveys and summarises in a systematic way much of the less familiar source material from the temples of the Greco-Roman period made accessible by the work of French Egyptologists. (?) It is not really the intention (of the authors - ND) to invest gods with a life of their own, independent of human thinking and imagination, but rather to find a level of inquiry on which the human ideas expressed in myth and ritual may be systematically described. And their project is not a theistic enterprise; its focus is always divine functions and ways of interacting, never the personality of individual gods. (?) The author consider their investigation an approach to ?the essential structure of Egyptian myth not as an imaginary construct designed to justify the reality of ritual acts, but rather as a reality whose existence could not be maintained without rites. It is to confront the gods without intermediaries, as the extant documents suggest one should.? (?) A lot of predictable criticism might be advanced against this ?bracketing? of divine life, but it should be borne in mind that the book is no naive compilation of religious ideas. It is a very conscious experiment exploring the possibilities of ancient Egyptian religion. (?) The enterprise seems least convincing when its questionnaire comes closest to animal ethology. (?) Much more convincing and instructive are the accounts of temple ritual. (?). A n experiment, the book is instructive in a general methodological sense. (?) In ?The Daily Life of the Egyptian Gods? The ethological approach is conscious and unmixed and, not least, paired with indisputable Egyptological scholarship, This makes the book a very clear demonstration of both the potential and the shortcomings of the ethology of gods.? (J. PODEMANN SØRENSEN in History of Religions, 1999, p.391-392).…
