Topos - European Landscape Magazine
About Landscape: Essays on design, style, time and space

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOne of the fundamental considerations in landscape architecture is whether to create something which appears to be natural, or to design something deliberately artificial. Always moving between nature and artifice the art of landscape architecture expresses itself in a sensitive awareness of time and place. If the design is not to become a mere ornament, then it must be supported by concepts and visions, daring to create something new from the existing surroundings. This collection of essays which have been published over the last decade in Topos – European Landscape Magazine, is a valuable contribution to the literature in the specialised field of landscape architecture. The authors include Paolo Burgi who writes on dimensionsof memory, Joachim W. Jacobs who investigates the Bauhaus and the theory of space, and Kathinka Schreiber who takes a critical look at landscape in film. [detailed...]

Anton Chekhov
About Love and Other Stories

2008 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Raymond Carver called Anton Chekhov `the greatest short story writer who has ever lived.` This unequivocal verdict on Chekhov`s genius has been echoed many times by writers as diverse as Katherine Mansfield, Somerset Maugham, John Cheever and Tobias Wolf. While his popularity as a playwright has sometimes overshadowed his achievements in prose, the importance of Chekhov`s stories is now recognized by readers as well as by fellow authors. Their themes--alienation, the absurdity and tragedy of human existence--have as much relevance today as when they were written, and these superb new translations capture their modernist spirit. Elusive and subtle, spare and unadorned, the stories in this selection are among Chekhov`s most poignant and lyrical. The book includes well-known pieces such as `The Lady with the Little Dog,` as well as less familiar work like `Gusev,` inspired by Chekhov`s travels in the Far East, and `Rothschild`s Violin,` a haunting and darkly humorous tale about death and… [detailed...]

John Rechy
About My Life and the Kept Woman: A Memoir

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Gore Vidal has hailed John Rechy as “one of the few original American writers of the last century,” and Michael Cunningham has called him an author “whose life is almost as interesting, and meaningful, as his work.” Rechy’s long-awaited memoir,About My Life and the Kept Woman, is the author’s first open treatment of his life—and a testament to the power of pride and self-acceptance. Raised Mexican-American in El Paso, Texas, at a time when Latino children were routinely segregated, Rechy was often assumed to be Anglo because of his light skin, and had his name “changed” for him by a teacher, from Juan to John. As he grew older—and as his fascination with the memory of a notorious kept woman in his childhood deepened—Rechy became aware that his differences lay not just in his heritage, but in his sexuality. A moving, powerful story of a life that bears witness to some of the most riotous changes of the past century,About My Life and the Kept Woman is as much a portrait of intolerance… [detailed...]

2007 y.
Publisher: Upper Access
Description: Henri de Marne is among America`s best-known experts on every aspect of home ownership. For 32 years, people have depended on him for answers to questions such as: What should I do when moss is growing on the north side of a roof? How can I stop the toilet tank from sweating? How can I paint a basement floor and not have the paint peel off? What is the best way to get rid of carpenter ants? Where can I get replacement hardware for my old windows? Why have my windows been steaming up ever since I installed a new furnace?

This is a big collection - probably the most complete handbook for homeowners that has ever been published - and in the same conversational, easy-to-understand language that readers have come to expect over the years.

Above Paris: The Aerial Survey of Roger Henrard

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Between the years 1950 and 1972, when Paris was in the twilight of its classical period, pilot and photographer Roger Henrard (1900-1975) preserved the city he knew and loved from the seat of a single-engine American army surplus Piper cub. Henrard used a high-speed plate camera to systematically document the city from its outskirts to its center. His photographs show not only Paris`s stations, museums, department stores, and housing projects but also its urban tissue and interconnections the tight-knit medieval districts as well as the rectilinear geometry of the Haussmanian boulevards. Above Paris is Henrard`s remarkable study of the urban landscape of Paris and its best-known monuments. Over 350 beautifully printed duotones, grouped by themes such as the course of the Seine, the main roads, the stations, and the neighborhoods of Paris give a clear overview of the city`s layout. Maps at the beginning of each chapter further help orient the reader and together with detailed… [detailed...]

Above the Board: How Ethical CEOs Create Honest Corporations

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In recent years, a string of corporate scandals have sent shockwaves throughout the business world, resulting in the fracture of public trust in corporations. Now more than ever, corporate honesty and integrity are directly connected to success and growth. Above the Board provides strategies and methods to help you build a solid foundation of ethical corporate values into your organization. Inside, you`ll find key advice from CEOs who have put corporate ethics at the forefront. The common message is that business ethics should not be viewed as an “add-on” to a company`s operations, rather, it must be a key element in an overall strategy for success. “Organizations across a range of industries are faced with the challenge of fostering an ethical environment that goes beyond compliance,” the authors write. “Above all, it is the CEOs who are in a position to set the ethical tone and climate of their organization.” Above the Board offers concrete practices, procedures, and… [detailed...]

Above the Clouds: The Diaries of a High-Altitude Mountaineer

Publisher: St. Martin`s Griffin
Description: Born in Mayak, Russia, in 1958, Boukreev became one of the world`s greatest mountain climbers. But while his accomplishments included 21 ascents of 11 of the world`s 14 highest mountains, Boukreev became known to the general public only after his work as a guide on a disastrous Mt. Everest climb was described in less than glowing terms in Jon Krakauer`s Into Thin Air. Boukreev`s coauthored bestselling account of the tragedy, The Climb, was an attempt to set the record straight. This new posthumous collection is a series of narratives Boukreev wrote between 1987 and his death climbing Annapurna in 1997, it stands as an excellent addition to The Climb and as one of the most revealing and tough-minded descriptions of the life of a mountain climber. Three themes dominate the essays: the spiritual beauty and power of the mountains, the increasing commercialization of mountain climbing and the necessity for rigorous training by people (pros and newcomers alike) who want to climb the big… [detailed...]
