Michael Lewis
A Life Adrift: Soeda Azembo, Popular Song and Modern Mass Culture in Japan (Kegan Paul Japan Library)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This is a unique narrative of pre-war Japanese life as told from its lower depths by a tremendously popular social commentator and poet. An iconic figure in pre-war Japan, the balladeer and political activist Soeda Azembo was one of Japan`s first modern mass entertainers, the writer of popular enka songs sung by ordinary working people. These songs uniquely impart an understanding of everyday life in the tumult of pre-war Japan, serving as a kind of shorthand for popular attitudes to political corruption, sex scandals, inflation, war, patriotism, class conflict and gender relations. Japanese people valued Azembo`s music for being of them and for them, both modern and home-grown, qualities rare at a time when western cultural influences were increasing. Michael Lewis`s annotated work introduces Azembo and his social and cultural milieu to an international audience for the first time. A Life Adrift, the only memoir of its kind, extends beyond biography to encompass the creation of… [detailed...]

Merrel Clubb
A Life Disturbed: My Pacific War Revisited

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionAn exceptional storyteller with an analytical eye, Merrel Clubb has gathered the letters he sent his parents from the Pacific Theater of World War II and his subsequent reflections on that war and on his life into a kind of then-and-now memoir. The letters are a treasure trove of humor, anxiety, and hope, revealing a young man thrust into a war that he does not understand. Through this exceptional portal on the past, we learn of the tragic absurdity of war, of a soldier trained for naval warfare but sent into land battle with weapons he`d never before fired, of command post latrines at which even commanding officers were sitting ducks, of the ghoulish trophies and mementos that soldiers collected from the battlefields. The letters describe a vivid cast of characters, from Clubb`s childhood friend who instilled a love of poetry in his comrades to the hillbilly singer and the prostitute with whom the young Clubb had varied amorous adventures. But the most compelling… [detailed...]

A Life Of Ernest Starling (People and Ideas Series)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionErnest Starling (1866-1927) was pre-eminent in the golden age of British Physiology. His name is usually associated with his Law of the Heart, but his discovery of secretin (the first hormone whose mode of action was explained) and his work on capillaries were more important contributions. He coined the word `hormone` one hundred years ago. His analysis of capillary function demonstrated that equal and opposite forces move across the capillary wall--an outward (hydrostatic)force and an inward (osmotic) force derived from plasma proteins. Starling was much more than a gifted scientist. He held passionate views on many subjects - education, London University, Germany and the British Government, etc. - and was not slow to vice them. Time has shown most of his views to be right, but their publication may have hampered his worldly success. Working on defense against poison gas during WWI, he crossed swords with the war office. After resigning his commission as… [detailed...]

It was a fate few would have predicted for James Reese Europe, he was then at the pinnacle of his career as a composer, conductor, and organizer in the black community, with the promise of even greater heights to come. `People don`t realize yet today what we lost when we lost Jim Europe`, said pianist Eubie Blake. `He was the savior of Negro musiciansin a class with Booker T.
