New York: Barnes & Noble, 1985. 156p. 1 fig; Index: 153- 156; 31 refs This is an overview of information about the ouija board. Hunt reports that in a recent survey he conducted, 30% use the ouija board to communicate with the dead, the same percentage to communicate with the living, and the remainder to develop psychic ability or as a mcans of guidance. He gives some case histories illustrating that using the ouija board can be both helpful and dangcrous. Well-known cases discussed are Jane Robert's Seth and the Toronto "Philip" group experiment. He discusses auto- matisms as the inducers of psychosis and as a cure. An in- terview with Barbara Honegger is the subject of one chap- ter. The last chapter is entitled "How to Get the Best Results from Your Quija Experiments.” - R.A.W. 02035. Jackson, Edgar N. The Role of Faith in the Process of Healing. Minneapolis, MN: Winston Press, 1981. 203p. Bibliographic notes by chapter: 197-201; Biblio- graphy: 195-196 The emphasis here is on the role faith plays in heal- ing and that we are personally responsible for our state of health. There are several chapters on faith. Jackson examines the nature of faith, unconscious factors in faith, conscious processes in faith, and super-conscious expressions of faith, There is a chapter on innate faith and one on faith that is achieved. Most relevant to parapsychology is Chapter 10, “Mystical [lumination and the Super-healthy Person.” Here he discusses the level of faith that employs “the higher levels of consciousness for its purposes." He classifies the phenomena related to the superconsciousness in three categories: the psychological, the psychic, and the parapsychic. It closes with a section on the cultivation of revealed truth. The final chapters deal with cultivation of a life-affirming attitude. - R.A.W. 02036. Katz, Richard. Boiling Energy: Community Heal- ing Among the Kalahari Kung. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1982. 329p. Bibliography: 317-323; Glos- sary: 314-316; 2 figs; 19 illus; Index: 324-329 _ Katz reports on his field investigation of the ritual healing dance of the !Kung. The rituals are described in detail, and he shows how they are perceived at the ex- periential level through interviews with participants; he traces the role of healing in the healers’ lives and in the community as a whole, and he presents a sociological ana- lysis of how the form and function of healing are shaped by the character of the [Kung social order. The book grew out of a request from the [Kung to “tell our story of healing to your people.” The talks of four !Kung healers are the heart of the book. Of special interest are four chapters, "At a Healing Dance,” “Educa- tion for Healing,” “Career of the Healer," and  “Psycho- logical and Spiritual Growth.” Biographies are give of some important !Kung healers. - R.A.W. 02037.
