1958ST20505-03Piedmont California: The Nova Press 1958. 260 x 170 mm. 10 1/4 x 6 3/4". 17 1 pp. 1 leaf. <br/> Publisher's sage green paper boards cover with title printed in black. WITH A LEAF FROM THE 1865 BIELEFELD "DER KORAN." In fine condition.<br/> <br/> This charming and attractively printed leaf book served as the ultimate bibliophile's Christmas card. William P. Barlow Jr. 1934-2021 was a dedicated Bay Area book collector who for many years served as president of the Roxburghe Club of San Francisco. Along with collecting Barlow printed under the Nova Press imprint putting out a smattering of pamphlets and "cards" such as the present volume. This tongue-in-cheek production gently pokes fun at the norms of the bibliophilic world even as it celebrates them as evident in the limitation statement: "A moderate number of copies printed and distributed by the Nova Press Piedmont and its proprietor Wm. P. Barlow Jr. as a form of Season's Greetings to members of the Roxburghe Club of San Francisco and other friends. To the latter I apologize for a rather parochial parody and a somewhat un-Christmassy Christmas card; to the former I need apologize only for the way in which it has been done as they are used to getting all sorts of strange things at Christmas." The leaf included in this book is from the 1856 Bielefeld edition of Ludwig Ullmann's influential German translation of the Qur'an which was first published in 1840. The print run of this work must have been a good deal less than "moderate" as copies seem not to be readily available. The Nova Press unknown

"Le Sahîh d'Al-Bukhârî (en arabe : / a al-Bukh r ) signifie « l'authentique de l'imam Al-Bukhari » et est l'un des six grands recueils de hadiths. Il est considéré par les musulmans sunnites comme le livre le plus fiable après le Coran et comme l'une des trois sources de hadiths les plus authentiques avant le Sahih Muslim et Al-Muwatta de l'imam Mâlik. C'est une source majeure, sinon la source principale de l'eschatologie et de la jurisprudence islamique. C'est de là que découlent la plupart des règles islamiques populaires, et parfois controversées, comme celle du port du voile".

Bound in publisher's red cloth stamped in blue. Near Fine with sunned spine light wear and soiling to cloth and moderate toning to contents; binding tight. No OCLC record for this edition<br /> <br /> <p>Together with 37 issues of The Mayans copyrighted 1936-1967 but printed in the 1960s. Includes issues 1-13 15-28 and 31-42. First issue contains two introductory letters each supposedly signed likely after her death by the psychic Isabelle Taylor under her stage name Rose Dawn.

Overall Very Good with subscription crease to each booklet light wear to covers and occasional coffee stains and inscriptions; three rear pages detached. Three secret code practice sheets on scrap paper laid in.<br /> <br /> <p>A nice collection of cult/kook publications. The Mayan Order was created by the married couple William and Isabelle Taylor who after moving to Hollywood transformed themselves into "Rose Dawn" the showgirl and "Koran" the conjurer. They moved to Del Rio in 1933 to perform as psychics on the new radio station founded by the famous quack Dr. John Brinkley who made his money by convincing men that they could improve their virility by allowing him to implant goat testes in their bodies. The powerful Radio XERA broadcast from just across the Mexican border to avoid American government regulation and it was a hit. Rose Dawn a Mae West lookalike became the "Star Girl of XERA" and raked in money selling astrological charts to her many listeners.<br /> <br /> <p>Rose Dawn and Koran announced that Del Rio was the center of ancient Mayan culture and they bought a ranch nearby to create the headquarters of their new Mayan Order complete with alters. They delivered Mayan-flavored self-help lessons via correspondence beginning by teaching each student a special code for communication. In 1941 they moved the Order to San Antonio where it lasted long after Rose's death in 1957. Her signature continued to appear on documents -- perhaps her spectral fingers reached out from Xibalba to move the pen. The Mayan Press unknown

D. has written a thorough practical and well-organized book on OCD and related conditions that is aimed squarely at the clinician.I highly recommend Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders in Adults to the clinician in search of practical approaches to OCD and its kindred conditions." Psychiatric Times "Koran has accomplished a phenomenal state-of-the-art compilation of current knowledge in OCD and related disorders. The author clearly and concisely presents a master's view of diagnosis psychotherapy and psychopharmocology for a set of common but difficult pathologies. The tone and utility reminds me of the more general spiral-bound volumes by Schatzberg and Cole that are a benchmark for clinical psychopharmacology. Koran's monograph at least matches and in many ways surpasses their work especially in practical discussions of therapy issues. This is very high praise.Finally! A really frank open guide to managing treatment! No complexity is evaded bringing out crystalline diagnostic and treatment pearls." Journal of Clinical Psychiatry "Lorrin Koran M.
