Gerard Brender a Brandis
A Wood Engraver`s Alphabet

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Wood engraver Gerard Brender a Brandis has long been an avid gardener and botanist, his encyclopaedic knowledge of the plant world animates the exquisite microcosm of A Wood Engraver`s Alphabet. This collection is intended both for the student of the complexities of nature`s creations and the patron of the intricate art of wood engraving. The images are presented in the form of an alphabet book but the simple, and sometimes elementary, appreciation of the alphabet format will not suffice here. The abundance of the botanical world, and the multitude of choice available to represent each letter, allows the mind of artist and reader alike to roam free. A short introduction by the artist illuminates the choices he has made and includes historical tidbits about the lexicon of flowers. [detailed...]

In all things, the affectionate nature and resourcefulness of the wood storks form the framework of their lives. This is a love story: love between siblings, love between mates, and most importantly love between parents and chicks. It is also a survival story, especially for one family which triumphs over disaster. [detailed...]

Dick Barnes
A Word Like Fire: Selected Poems

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description A Word Like Fire , the first comprehensive selection of his poems, should confirm Dick Barnes`s place as one of the most accomplished and likable American poets of the last fifty years. His great subject is the Mojave Desert, the vast basin of ranges and valleys east and north of Los Angeles, with its beautiful shrubs and flowers, magnificent trees, ephemeral grasses, high lakes, rivers and dry river beds, alfalfa farms, and isolated towns with names like Essex, Cadiz Summit, Elephant Butte, Running Springs, Helendale, and often canny and solitary men and women. Of this world, Dick Barnes gives an indelible portrait in poem after poem. But Barnes is more than a regional poet. As Robert Mezey writes in his brilliant foreword, `He has an engaging variety of subjects, and to almost all of them he gives faithful perception and love.` He is a master of the elegy, and wrote love poems, satires, devotional poems, and, Mezey notes, `poems of wry social comment and… [detailed...]

A Word from Our Viewers: Reflections from Early Television Audiences

2007 y.
Publisher: Praeger Publishers
Description: Media-jaded Americans, especially younger ones, would be surprised to know how eagerly their forebears anticipated the arrival of television. Tracing public and critical responses to TV from its pioneering days, this book gathers and gives context to the reactions of those who saw television`s early broadcasts-from the privileged few who witnessed experimental and limited-schedule programming in the 1920s and 1930s, to those who bought TV sets and hoisted antennae in the post-World War II television boom, to still more who invested in color receivers and cable subscriptions in the 1960s. Viewers` comments recall the excitement of owning the first TV receiver in the neighborhood, show the vexing challenges of reception, and record the pleasure that all young and many older watchers found in early network and local programs from the beginning to the fast-changing 1960s. While the first two major sections of this study show the views of television`s first broad public, the third section… [detailed...]

Iain Levison
A Working Stiff`s Manifesto: A Memoir of Thirty Jobs I Quit, Nine That Fired Me, and Three I Can`t Remember

2003 y.
Publisher: Random House Trade Paperbacks
Description: All Iain Levison really wants is a steady paycheck, cable television, and the possibility of a date on Saturday night. But after blowing $40,000 on an English degree, he can`t find the first, can`t afford the second, and can`t even imagine what woman would consent to the third. So he embarks on a time-honored American tradition: scoring a few dead-end jobs until something better comes along. The problem is, it never does. `A Working Stiff`s Manifesto` is a laugh-out-loud memoir of one man`s quest to stay afloat. From the North Carolina piedmont to the Alaskan waters, Levison`s odyssey takes him on a cross-country tour of wage labor: gofer, oil deliveryman, mover, fish cutter, restaurant manager, cable thief, each job more mind-numbing than the last. `A Working Stiff`s Manifesto` will resonate with anyone who has ever suffered a demeaning job, worn a name badge, or felt the tyranny of the time clock.

Yevgeny M. Primakov
A World Challenged: Fighting Terrorism in the Twenty-First Century

2004 y.
Publisher: Brookings Institution Press
Description: In this candid and sobering account, former Russian premier Yevgeny M. Primakov considers the threats posed by independent terrorist organizations to the security of the global community. As the attacks of September 11, 2001 made clear, the course of international affairs is no longer shaped exclusively by cooperation and confrontation among nations. Stateless factions with extreme agendas - their methods enhanced by globalization and technological advances - pose serious threats to global stability. Primakov expresses grave concern over the likelihood that independent terrorist organizations will obtain weapons of mass destruction. More than 100 nations are stockpiling nuclear material, he writes, and there is no reason to believe that all of it is well managed or protected. A terrorist group intent on developing a weapon can easily find the information and fissile material to develop a compact nuclear device. He recommends that the global community develop a… [detailed...]

A World Held Hostage by Debt

Description: No matter what country people live in, they all dislike high taxes and inflation, because they recognize the hardships they impose on their lives and families. By nature, we are a compassionate people. We don`t like to see other people suffer, especially starving children. The September 11 disaster has proved beyond doubt that the American people can and do respond to crises with compassion and generosity, even heroism. When we hear that worldwide, 24,000 people die of hunger every day, we know this is a crisis. We care and we`d like to help. But what can we do? When most stocks were rising faster than flames on a pine tree during a forest fire, investors in the stock market felt prosperous even wealthy. They didn`t think whatwould happen when the stock market crashed the way it`s doing now. They couldn`t visualize how that would devastate the whole economy and that greed was destroying the market itself. [detailed...]

A World Made Sexy: Freud to Madonna

2007 y.
Publisher: University of Toronto Press
Description: Eroticism is a constant presence in modern society, encompassing almost every aspect of our daily lives. It is a product of one of the major commercial and political enterprises of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries: the cultivation of desire - desire for sex, desire for wealth, desire for entertainment. Paul Rutherford`s A World Made Sexy looks at modern civilization`s ongoing project to manufacture and encourage public wants, building a utopia where just about everyone (who is affluent) dreams, plays, and, of course, shops. A World Made Sexy uses museum exhibitions, art, books, magazines, films, and television to examine the rise and purpose of eroticism, first in America but soon across the affluent world. Starting with a brief foray into the representation of history as past pornography, Rutherford explores a sexual liberation movement shaped by the ideas of Marx and Freud, the erotic styles of Salvador Dali and pop art, the pioneering… [detailed...]

Cyrus Veeser
A World Safe for Capitalism

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This award-winning book provides a unique window on how America began to intervene in world affairs. In exploring what might be called the prehistory of Dollar Diplomacy, Cyrus Veeser brings together developments in New York, Washington, Santo Domingo, Brussels, and London. Theodore Roosevelt plays a leading role in the story as do State Department officials, Caribbean rulers, Democratic party leaders, bankers, economists, international lawyers, sugar planters, and European bondholders, among others. The book recounts a little-known incident: the takeover by the Santo Domingo Improvement Company (SDIC) of the foreign debt, national railroad, and national bank of the Dominican Republic. The inevitable conflict between private interest and public policy led President Roosevelt to launch a sweeping new policy that became known as the Roosevelt corollary to the Monroe Doctrine. The corollary gave the U. S. the right to intervene anywhere in Latin American that `wrongdoing or… [detailed...]
