Octavo (8 1/2" x 5 1/2") bound in original publisher's black boards with gilt lettering to spine in original pictorial jacket. First edition. Deaf N.Y.C. detective Joe Binney (A Piece of the Silence, etc.) goes south--for an unshapely but mostly absorbing mixture of small-town charm, big-time embezzlement, and hefty gothic secrets. Joe's initial client is a Manhattan publisher--who wants to know why textbook salesman Charlie Welland died in a car wreck down in Caunotaucarius County. . .and what happened to $150,000 worth of missing books. Few of the locals give the Northern shamus a warm welcome, of course; he very nearly becomes a hit-and-run victim. But it isn't long before Joe zeroes in on the slimy local politico who had teamed up with the salesman in a nasty scare (leading to greedy murder). Meanwhile, however, there's been another not-so-accidental death in town: splendid Miss Rutledge, Secretary of Education and village historian, is the sole fatality when a civil building blows up--and the prime suspect is pathetic loon Honey Lewis, who's been seriously disturbed since he suffered an enigmatic childhood-trauma down in the local mine. So Joe, hired now by Honey's father, sets out to determine who really blew up that building. And the investigation soon focuses on Lewis family-history, on mine-ownership politics, and above all on the causes of Honey's bygone psychic scars. Two mini-mysteries stitched together, only half-smoothly--but the talented Livingston again provides a rich supporting cast, patches of taut action (Joe scuba-dives an abandoned mine), and strong narration for somber yet humorous Joe (who downplays his handicap effectively).

Charles Hardaway climbs the hill to his house, immediately missing the bright lights and conversation of the bar and dreading the return to his lover, who is slowly dying of AIDS. But Hardaway's self-pity is interrupted by a pipe-wielding stranger, who crushes his skull before slipping away. It's nighttime in the Castro, and another gay man has been sent to his grave. Homicide lieutenant Frank Hastings is tempted to write the killing off as another heinous instance of gay-bashing, but witnesses say the killer was alone, and seemed to know the victim. Digging into Hardaway's past, Hastings finds evidence that he was a blackmailer who pushed one of his targets to the breaking point. In a neighborhood where disease and hatred claim more and more lives every day, it seems one man has been done in by plain old-fashioned greed. Condition: Fine in like jacket.

DETAILS: PAPERBACK, pencil underlining or marks in marings on about 20 pages at start of text, annoying on a few, otherwise remains a very good used copy for reading as most of the book is clean. FIELD, NATHAN. Breakdown and breakthrough : psychotherapy in a new dimension : COPY WITH MARKINGS. London ; New York: Routledge, 1996, 157pp., . Breakdown and Breakthrough examines the essential role of regression in the patient's recovery from mental illness. In light of this Nathan Field reassesses the role of the therapist tracing psychotherapy back to its earliest spiritual roots and comparing modern analytic methods with ancient practices of healing and exorcism. The author uses vivid examples from his psychotherapeutic practice to show how, with the apparent breakdown of the therapeutic method itself, patients can break through to a new level of functioning. The book goes on to consider how psychotherapy has been affected by fundamental developments in twentieth century science, such as the move from old, classical assumptions of linear causation to non-linear complexity from reductionism to a holistic systems approach and from mental mechanisms to acknowledging the mysteries of unconscious interaction. Taking up the radical vision originally proposed by Carl Jung and later fostered by eminent psychotherapists such as Winnicott and Bion, the author shows how psychotherapy can be reframed to admit the existence of a psychological fourth dimension. Nathan Field reappraises ideas of health and pathology, psychoanalysis and healing, sex and spirituality in light of a dramatic shift in the way we understand ourselves. How this shift alters the shape of psychotherapy in the twenty-first century is the challenge the practitioners, teachers and trainees must all address. ISBN 0415109582.
