        CATALOG - REALITY SOFTWARE    8/4/94               
   
	Here is a listing of books on disk in the 
history of religion series currently available from 
Reality Software. The price differences between 
books reflect both the work that went into the 
research and their length. The least expensive 
contain documents whose length is less than 25 
pages. The more costly contain articles in 
excess of 75 pages for the longest documents in the 
package and, in some cases, extensive glossaries as well.
Such estimates vary with printer and print 
setup, of course. These works are scholarly and written 
for thinking adults. They represent an attempt at 
original synthesis from the literature and some of 
the writing is at journal level.
	All Windows products come with REPLICA, an 
application independent viewing system which 
bypasses the need for a word processor. REPLICA is 
easily installed into WIN 3.1 or WFW 3.11 and can 
then be used to view and print the electronic 
books. Full instructions are included. For those of 
you who may be interested in our products and do not 
have a high-end Windows system, notice that several 
books are available with a superb document viewing 
interface for DOS (BigText) that in the latest version 
(1.3) incorporates graphics to produce illustrated 
electronic books. We offer a money back guarantee: if 
you do not find a book captivating and interesting, 
return your disk(s) for a full-no questions-asked, 
refund. Assume all disks are high density.


	1) Explore the Origins of Mythology with 
hunter-gatherers in the Upper Paleolithic and Indians in 
the Amazon. Available in an illustrated Windows version 
that utilizes Replica (v1.5) or as v1.3, which incorporates 
a new state- of-the-art document viewing interface for DOS 
(BigText) which is also illustrated. Have you ever wondered 
how it all began? Major references include the work of Alexander
Marshak and shamanic practices among peoples of the Amazon.

 	2) The White Goddess in Neolithic Old Europe is an 
in-depth study of the archeology, artifacts, iconography 
and ritual of the Goddess religion of Neolithic Europe. The 
material is based extensively on the breakthrough work of 
Marija Gimbutas. Several hypotheses are presented about
iconography and metaphor which are drawn from realms as diverse 
as evolutionary biology and the marine zoology of megafauna in 
the dark abyss of the deep ocean.     

 	3) Early Myth and The Goddess in Ancient China is a 
discussion of the feminine in Shang and Chou Dynasty myth and the
central role played by the Myth of the Sacred Mulberry Tree (Fu
Sang). Major use is made of recent publications by Birrell and 
Allen. Available 9/94.

 	4) Our book on disk about The White Goddess In Eire, 
Britain, Wales and Gaul has just been revised. This new 
version also incorporates a new state-of-the-art document 
viewing interface for DOS (BigText) - v1.2. This is the 
first and last word about the Goddess in Britain, Ireland 
and Wales. If you ever wished to separate New Age nonsense 
from the 'real' historical myths, this book is for you.
	
	5) Our latest book on disk, a revision of The Great 
Goddess in India and Tibet, is also available with the 
latest version of the superb document viewing interface for 
DOS (BigText) which is illustrated (v1.3). This study is 
exceptionally deep about tantra; gnosticism; the sacred 
horse ritual; the saga of the doomsday mare; the first 
appearance, near demise and then resurgence of the Goddess 
in India; and Tara - the White and Green Goddess of Tibet.   
   

	6) Our exceptional Historical TimeLine covers ancient 
and early medieval history for the period 12,000 B.C. to 
900 A.D. and emphasizes the history of religion. It is only 
available for Windows 3.1 or WFW 3.11 as TimeLine V4.0. 
There are literally hundreds of line items which include 
information found in no other timeline and there is a vast 
increase in the data from previous versions. A typical 
printout would be three pages across and 19 pages deep.
