Book: The Afflicted Mirror by P Hamilton-Giles

Out of print hardcover Slight smudges on back sleeve Rare A ground breaking exploration of 'Otherness' as it relates to the relationship between the metaphysical and the physical. Based on a research paper presented at the 1996 AAA, Anthropology of Religion inaugural conference in Kansas, 'The Afflicted Mirror' offers an original phenomenological model in which the author unites such diverse spiritual states as the mysticism of the Seer, the religious ecstasy of the Saint, and the spirit-conjurations of the sorcerer.
