The Art of Responsive Drawing

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Goldstein, Nathan, PUBLISHER: Prentice Hall, More a "how-to-see-it" than a "how-to-do-it" book, this edition explores the disguises and characteristics of shapes and forms in nature, and it examines the visual elements and the relational, moving, and emotive forces that constitute the language of drawing.

Robots for Shearing Sheep: Shear Magic

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Trevelyan, James P., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, This is an account of an extraordinary research project which took robots from their usual structured routines and successfully used them to reproduce the very human skill of sheep shearing. It is a story of immense ingenuity, persistence, planning, occasional luck, and, very importantly, commitment and teamwork. Originally ignored by international experts, the project is now hailed as an example of how versatile robots can be. One of the great lessons of the project was the need for technical experts to communicate effectively with many other people including funding agencies, shearers, farmers, the media, and specialists in different fields. Therefore this book, though written for experts and researchers, uses non-specialist language as much as possible. Technicalities and specialties are carefully explained in separate sections where necessary, so the book can be read by project managers or robotics specialists with equal interest.

Minimalism/Maximalism

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cuito, Aurora, PUBLISHER: Loft Publications, The history of architecture, like that of all art forms, has fluctuated over the years between two very marked trends: austerity and opulence of form and concept. Styles have alternated from simplicity to exuberance, eventually reaching an eclectic period in which rationalist works coexist with postmodern structures, minimalist interiors, and crowded atmospheres. Minimalism/Maximalism presents a resplendent collection of buildings that illustrate these two very dissimilar styles. The creators of these projects -- among some of today's most prestigious architects -- demonstrate that after a long period of austere work it's time for a new, cutting-edge design -- one that is more complex, with an enriching mixture of materials, forms, and functions. Filled with 370 lavish color images and 50 architectural plans, this guide compares and contrasts an array of minimalist and maximalist examples. Readers will find impressive homes, offices, and shops created by Frank O. Gehry, Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhass, Ettore Sottsass, and 20 other designers. Plus, clear, descriptive text details how minimalism/maximalism influenced other disciplines such as graphic design. Whether one is an architect, interior designer, contractor, or homeowner, Minimalism/Maximalism is a neverending source of style and inspiration.

The History of Jamaica: Or, General Survey of the Antient

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Long, Edward / Edward, Long, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, Edward Long's three-volume work marks a major turning point in the historiography of Jamaica, as the first attempt at a comprehensive description of the colony, its history, government, people, economy and geography. The son of a prominent Jamaican plantation owner, Long () spent twelve years running his father's property, an experience which permeates his vision of the island's past, present and future. Throughout his book, Long defends slavery as 'inevitably necessary' in Jamaica, suggesting the institution to be implicit in the 'possession of British freedom'. Volume 1 gives an overview of British colonial government in Jamaica, a history of the island's initial colonisation by Spain, and an account of the economy, including population and export figures and details of prices paid for slaves during the eighteenth century. This important book provides fascinating insights into eighteenth-century colonial Jamaica and the ideology of its commercial and administrative elite.

Self-Same Songs: Autobiographical Performances and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Porter, Roger J., PUBLISHER: University of Nebraska Press, "Self-Same Songs" constitutes a major contribution to the growing literary study of autobiography. Using a range of authors, including Homer, Edward Gibbon, Benjamin Franklin, Somerset Maugham, Franz Kafka, and Eugene Delacroix, Roger J. Porter offers a broad-based examination of the autobiography and the varied techniques used by its practitioners over time. In a style that is both graceful and erudite, Porter focuses on the diverse motivations and rhetorical functions that the act of self-writing serves for particular writers. He reflects on the texts not only as an exploration of self-identity but also as the writers' attempts to modify the life in the act of writing about it. Then, stepping out of his critical role, Porter ends each chapter with an autobiographical discussion of his professional and personal engagement with the autobiographer under discussion, creating an intriguing and absorbing literary autobiography within the critical text.
