| Publisher Description: WALTER'S ENCYCLOPEDIA is a unique, scientific and personal glossary published by a maverick researcher of our times. This present illustrated version of the glossary is addressed to the great public, next to an academic version that is published separately. The research this glossery covers goes back to 1985 and thus spans a period of 25 years. The Encyclopedia comes in two volumes. The present Volume 2 covers personalities, scientists, authors, artists and other people of fame and renown who have some or the other impact upon the author's perception and value system and who are frequently mentioned in his books. Some important entries are 'Edmond Bordeaux-Szekely', 'Edward Brongersma', 'Harold Saxton Burr', 'Joseph Campbell', 'Fritjof Capra', 'Lewis Carroll', 'Edward de Bono', 'Albert Einstein', 'Sigmund Freud', 'Irina Ionesco', 'J. Krishnamurti', 'Georgi Lozanov', 'Terence McKenna', 'Sally Mann', 'Alice Miller', 'Alexander S. Neill', 'Michel Odent', 'Pablo Picasso', 'James W. Prescott', 'Serge Rachmaninov', 'Svjatoslav Richter', 'Jan Saudek', 'What the Bleep Do We Know ?', etc. |
