Narratives of possession have survived in early English medical and philosophical treatises. Using ideas derived from cognitive science, this study moves through the stages of possession and exorcism to describe how the social, religious, and medical were internalized to create the varied manifestations of demon possession in early modern England.

A magical legacy going back generations? Who needs it!"I'd rather have some paid up bills," Sybil says. "Or maybe a pony," agrees teenager Lucy. Mimi seems to be the only one of the three sisters who appreciates what they've had left to them by their grandmother, a widely-known and once-powerful witch. Now if she could just get the others on board with saving the world-or at least their little corner of it. She's got a black cat familiar on her side-and maybe some interest from handsome newsman Max Ransom. Other than that, she's on her own. Maybe what she ought to find is a good ancient how-to book on world saving. She's going to need it.

In 1622, thirteen-year-old Elizabeth Jennings fell strangely ill. After doctors’ treatments proved useless, her family began to suspect the child had been bewitched, a suspicion that was confirmed when Elizabeth accused their neighbor Margaret Russell of witchcraft. In the events that followed, witchcraft hysteria intertwines with family rivalries, property disputes, and a web of supernatural beliefs. Starting from a manuscript account of the bewitchment, Kirsten Uszkalo sets the story of Elizabeth Jennings against both the specific circumstances of the powerful Jennings family and the broader history of witchcraft in early modern England. Fitting together the intricate pieces of this complex puzzle, Uszkalo reveals a story that encompasses the iron grip of superstition, the struggle among professionalizing medical specialties, and London’s lawless and unstoppable sprawl. In the picture that emerges, we see the young Elizabeth, pinned like a live butterfly at the dark center of a web of greed and corruption, sickness and lunacy.

Just when longtime Michigan conservation officer Grady Service is certain that he’s seen it all, he learns once again that he hasn’t. After so many decades protecting his state’s natural resources, here he still is, undercover yet again—not in a case he's developed, but dumped into a case by the Feds (with his governor’s approval). And as time passes, he can’t figure out if what he’s buried in is truly a religious nationalist militia group set on overturning the U.S. Constitution, or one man’s cash cow, a sort of half-ass redneck Ponzi aimed solely at fattening a single bank account. The newest Woods Cop Mystery, #12 in the legendary series, is another soaring brainchild of Joseph Heywood, author of the Woods Cop and Lute Bapcat Mysteries, both of which explore a way of life lived by Michigan game wardens over many different decades, from the Bapcat mysteries of the early 1900s to Grady Service and compatriots in contemporary times.
