Andrea Most
Making Americans : Jews and the Broadway Musical

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionFrom 1925 to 1951—three chaotic decades of economic depression, war, and social upheaval—Jewish writers brought to the musical stage a powerfully appealing vision of America, fashioned through song and dance. It was anoptimistic, meritocratic, selectively inclusive America in which Jews could at once lose and find themselves—assimilation enacted onstage and off, as Andrea Most shows. This book examines two interwoven narratives crucial to an understanding of twentieth-century American culture: the stories of Jewish acculturation and of the Broadway musical`s coming-of-age. Here we delve into the work of the most influential artists of the genre during the years surrounding World War II—Irving Berlin, Eddie Cantor, Dorothy and Herbert Fields, George and Ira Gershwin, Oscar Hammerstein, Lorenz Hart, and Richard Rodgers—and encounter new interpretations of classics such as The Jazz Singer, Whoopee, Girl… [detailed...]

Making Aquatic Weeds Useful: Some Perspectives for Developing Countries

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This National Academy of Sciences report describes ways to exploit aquatic weeds for grazing, and by harvesting and processing for use as compost, animal feed, pulp, paper, and fuel. The book also describes utilization for sewage and industrial wastewater. Aquatic weeks have always existed, but in recent decades their effects have been magnified by man?s more intensive use of natural water bodies - his modifying them into canals and dams, polluting them with farm and city wastewaters, and introducing aggressive plant species into new locations. These plants, among the most prolific on earth, grow luxuriantly in the tropics, weigh hundreds of tons per hectare, and can be a serious hindrance to a nation?s development efforts. Eradication of the weeds has proved impossible, and even reasonable control is difficult. Turning these weeds to productive use would be desirable, but only limited research has been carried out. This report examines methods for controlling… [detailed...]

Making Art Work : The Mike Smith Studio

2004 y.
Publisher: Trolley
Description: In the 15th century the ideas of the great Renaissance artists required the attentions of engineers and artisans to construct and explain the dynamics of their ambitious works. Leonardo da Vinci?s helicopter was built in a studio, very probably his submarine was also built. Today that endeavour and enquiry is represented by Mike Smith, whose studio in the Old Kent Road in London furnishes the architecture for the most pressing installations and sculptures of young British artists. He is the carborundum that enables the best artists working in Britain today to realise their work ? Rachel Whiteread?s Monument in Trafalgar Square is a testament to his work. The painter Patsy Craig, out of Connecticut and Peru, has inMaking Art Work unravelled the activities of the Mike Smith Studios, including the symbiosis of the studio with the process of creation of such artists as Damien Hirst, Mona Hatoum, Keith Tyson, Darren Almond and Mark Wallinger. Over the last 12… [detailed...]

Making Art of Data: Master Class Series Interfacing Realities

Description: Book DescriptionIn recent centuries a whole range of exact systems has been developed in order to describe and categorize spoken and written communication: phonologically, morphologically, syntactically, semantically, pragmatically, stylistically. But there is nothing similar for visual and audio communication, despite the fact that the importance of these media has increased dramatically over the last 200 years. Attempts to develop various systems for the deployment of archives and databases in the workof artists, with the goal of developing interactive, dynamic artworks in which the database plays an active role, were undertaken during a series of masterclasses organized by V2_ in association with the Zentrum fur Kunst und Medientechnologie in Karslruhe, Ars Electronica Center in Linz and the Center for Culture and Communication in Budapest.

Making Artisan Chocolates

2007 y.
Publisher: Quarry Books
Description: Forget milk chocolate molded into childish candy bars. Today`s chocolate candies use chocolates with high cocoa content and less sugar then previously available and are molded into highly decorated pieces of art. Once only accessible to pastry chefs and candy makers, home cooks can now purchase high-end domestic and imported chocolates in their local specialty stores. The recent availability of bittersweet chocolates coupled with our access to a global food market and unique ingredients has created an increased interest in artisanal chocolates. Drew Shotts has been at the forefront of this renaissance because of his daring use of unique flavor combinations not typically associated with chocolates, such as chili peppers, maple syrup, and spiced chai tea. Making Artisan Chocolates shows readers how to recreate Drew`s unexpected flavors at home through the use of herbs, flowers, chilies, spices, vegetables, fruits, dairies and liquors. [detailed...]

Making Autism a Gift: Inspiring Children to Believe in Themselves and Lead Happy, Fulfilling Lives

2007 y.
Publisher: Rowman &, Littlefield Publishers, Inc.
Description: Despite new research and increased public awareness, autism is still looked at in a negative light. Most books on the subject perpetuate this notion by saying that autism is bad or needs to be overcome, rather than highlighting the positive--for instance, many people with autism graduate from college, attain exciting careers, and lead happy, fulfilling lives. Making Autism a Gift emphasizes these positive realities and tears down the wall of isolation associated with this disorder. With information from hundreds of up-to-date sources, this practical book looks at the effects of autism on the individual and provides strategies parents can use to help their autistic children at home and beyond.

Making Capitalism Without Capitalists: Class Formation and Elite Struggles in Post-Communist Central Europe

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Making Capitalism without Capitalists guides us towards a deeper understanding of the origins of modern capitalism. Classical social theory in its search for the genesis of capitalism explored the process of transition from feudalism to capitalism. Making Capitalism without Capitalists focuses instead on the transition from socialism to capitalism, where capitalism is made without a capitalist class. Making Capitalism without Capitalists reflects on the sociological characteristics of the Communist system breakdown in 1989 and offers a theory of social structure of post-Communist societies. 1989 is seen as a successful revolution led by the former technocratic fraction of the old Communist ruling estate against the bureaucracy. In order to secure its victory, however, the technocracy had to make substantial concessions to the former dissident intelligentsia. The irony of the post-Communist way to capitalism is that these most unlikely actors see `building capitalism` as their historic… [detailed...]

Making Capitalism Work

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Making Capitalism Work takes on the confused thinking that mistakes the general economic system called capitalism for the particular history and heritage of the United States. Some pundits have argued that free markets are inextricable from a freesociety and tend to elide qualities they desire or admire (a Puritan work ethic, a democratic form of government, or a low-tax, downsized government) with the necessary conditions for market economies. In what amounts to a comparative study of market economies, the late Leonard Silk describes the many flavors of capitalism. His discussions of the trade-offs between the various approaches pursued by Asian, European, and North American governments are particularly stimulating, pointing out that if it is results we are interested in, there exists a record of economic outcomes that confounds ideological rhetoric.
