-Caveat Lector- from: http://www.prometheusbooks.com/prometheus/cannibal.htm <A HREF="http://www.prometheusbooks.com/prometheus/cannibal.htm">CANNIBALISM </A> ----- CANNIBALISM >From Sacrifice to Survival Hans Askenasy, Ph.D. The idea of "cannibalism" tends to conjure up the notion of ferocious primitive tribes in the jungles of Africa cooking one of their enemies. Cannibalism: From Sacrifice to Survival shows that this practice is all too common. Written in a clear and accessible style, psychologist Hans Askenasy has developed the first comprehensive history of a subject that is a combination of extreme violence, horror and exotic customs. Askenasy discusses the many well-known incidents of cannibalism, including the lnca and Aztecs, Georg Haarman, the Donner Party, the Leningrad siege during World War II, the Andes airplane crash. the Colorado man-eater, and Jeffrey Dahmer, as well as the historical background of cannibalism including natural and man-made famines, magic, religious rituals, sacrifice, werewolves, witches, and vampires. Askenasy also addresses our continuing fascination with cannibalism - from the Andes crash movie Alive to Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula; from Jeffrey Dahmer in Wisconsin to Chikatilo in Rostov. The only book of its kind, Canniballism: From Sacrifice to Survival is an absorbing examination of human behaviour, too often shrouded in mystery until now. Hans Askenasy (Laguna Beach, CA) is a clinical psychologist in private practice. He is the author of many articles and books, including Are We All Nazis? and the critically acclaimed Hitler's Secret. 268 pages (Photo Inserts) Publication date: 30th March, 1995 ISBN 0-87975-906-2 Return to Social Science and Current Events List ----- Aloha, He'Ping, Om, Shalom, Salaam.
