Tai-Jung Um: Sculptures and Drawings

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Um, Tai-Jung / Tietenberg, Annette, PUBLISHER: Hatje Cantz Publishers, The outdoor sculptures of renowned Korean metal sculptor Tai-Jung Um are prominent features of Seoul's urban landscape. Um is best known for having ventured a redefinition of sculpture during the s and s, an artistic risk catalyzed by sea changes in American and European art at the time, and his groundbreaking work melded those new influences with his own cultural background and Buddhist roots. As a professor at the Academy of Art at the Korean National University, Um has passed on his knowledge and sense of artistic adventure to another generation. "Sculptures and Drawings" features a selection of his most significant pieces, and illustrates the development of his oeuvre since the s, placing special emphasis on the striking recent works that demonstrate his masterful command of aluminum. Also included in the survey are the artist's fascinating large-scale pen-and-ink drawings.

Warriors and Scribes: Essays in the History and Politics of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dunkerley, James, PUBLISHER: Verso, Warriors and Scribes opens and closes using the prism of biography to question the framing of Latin American political life from both a northern, Cold War perspective and from the trivializations of postmodernism. An investigation of Jorge Castaneda's Utopia Disarmed reveals that Latin American politics are eminently transformable beyond the failed nostrums of multilateral organizations and collapsed dictatorships of the s. In surveying regional relations with the USA since , and a taking a wry look at Hollywood's treatment of Central America under Reagan, Dunkerley points out that Anglo-America has possessed neither a uniform imperialist vocation nor the consistent capacity to impose it. Two pieces written in the late s -- a reappraisal of Latin American Studies since the Cuban Revolution and a survey of the contemporary politics of Bolivia -- reflect the author's concerns with a place that was "American" for half a millennium before "Americanization through globalization" became a watchword.

Art at Work/L'Art Au Travail

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gale, Peggy / Landry, Pierre / Henry, Victoria, PUBLISHER: Goose Lane Editions, The Art Bank of the Canada Council for the Arts is one of Canada's greatest treasures, holding more than paintings, prints, photographs, and sculptures by over contemporary artists. Because the Art Bank rents its works to government and corporate offices, pieces are enjoyed every day in public spaces, but the collection itself is never seen. Now, to mark its 35th anniversary, the Art Bank ?exhibits? its collection in Art at Work. In English and French, Art at Work celebrates the Art Bank as a uniquely Canadian vision, a major collection, a financial success story, and an inspiration to governments across Canada and abroad. Introduced by Adrienne Clarkson, the essays by Victoria Henry, David Silcox, Peggy Gale, Pierre Landry, and Jeff Thomas tell about the Art Bank's scope, range, and purpose. Sumptuous photographs make Art at Work a work of art in its own right.

Chinese Jade: The Spiritual and Cultural Significance of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hongjuan, Li / Blishen, Tony / Fang, Gu, PUBLISHER: Shanghai Book Traders, To the Chinese people, jade is a precious stone endowed with magical properties which encapsulated all that mankind aspires to in terms of character, elegance, tranquility, purity and virtue. The Chinese love jade not merely because of its rarity or its luster but because of a deeper aesthetic value.

And they've just been handed the chance to end their lives as millionaires. A dying comrade has a secret he doesn't want to take to the grave....He knows where to find a cache of old Japanese air force planes--not wrecks lying all over the floor of some jungle, but planes in pristine condition, properly moth-balled and stored before the end of the war. But how do a group of retirees raise the money to finance a salvage mission of this size, without altering every other treasure hunter on the face of the earth? Wade Lovett, a handful of his old comrades, and his surprisingly practical grandson are determined to succeed. It will be the adventure of a lifetime.

Magic of Kirigami: Happenings With Paper and Scissors

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Temko, Florence, PUBLISHER: Japan Pubns, Just as D.T. Suzuki introduced the West to Zen philosophy, Nyogen Senzaki introduced the West to Zen practice. One of the first Zen masters to emigrate from Japan to the United States, Senzaki became the first great Buddhist teacher to fully immerse himself in the everyday life of the West, and his teachings and practice-centers influences a generation of Western Zen practitioners.

Letters to President Clinton: Biblical Lessons on Faith and

ISBN: , SKU: , PUBLISHER: Sterling Publishing Co Inc, "The President and the Rabbi" celebrates a unique chapter in the annals of both political and religious history: a written dialogue between prominent American Orthodox rabbi Menachem Genack and former President Bill Clinton that spanned more than 15 years. The two men first met when then-governor Clinton was just beginning his road to the presidency; as their friendship deepened, the rabbi started sending Clinton brief essays highlighting spiritual insights from the Bible to help him navigate difficult decisions and issues. During his second term, the president asked Genack to write these pieces more regularly and formally, and the rabbi invited many of his distinguished acquaintances--Bible scholars, political leaders, scientists, clergy members, and laypeople--to contribute. This inspirational collection gathers more than 100 of these mini-sermons, organized by theme-expressions of the contemporary but universal messages found in the Bible's ancient wisdom--and featuring a foreword by Clinton himself.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Thadepalli, Haragopal / Mandal, Ashis K., PUBLISHER: CRC Press, Over the past 50 years, important developments have taken place in surgical and antimicrobial aspects of the management of intestinal surgery and intra-abdominal sepsis. Many new pathogens like Clostridium difficile, Helibacter and Ruminococcus have been described, and many new beta-lactam drugs and quinolones have been introduced.

Telling the Bees

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hesketh, Peggy, PUBLISHER: Putnam Adult, With echoes of The Remains of the Day, an elderly beekeeper looks back on his quiet life, and the secrets of a woman he never truly knew. Albert Honig's most constant companions have always been his bees. A never-married octogenarian, he makes a modest living as a beekeeper, as his father and his father's father did before him. Deeply acquainted with the workings of the hives, Albert is less versed in the ways of people, especially his friend Claire, whose presence and absence in his life have never been reconciled. When Claire is killed in a seemingly senseless accident during a burglary gone wrong, Albert is haunted by the loss, and by the secrets and silence that hovered between them for so long. As he pieces together the memories of their shared history, he will come to learn the painful truths about Claire's life, and the redemptive power of laying the past to rest.

Museum of London - Talking Guide

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Richardson, Miranda / Scala Publishers, PUBLISHER: Scala Publishers, The Museum of London exists to inspire a passion for London. As the single most important source of knowledge on the nation's capital, it is uniquely both a national and local museum. Over a million objects are held in the Museum's stores, cared for by curators and conservators who are all leaders in their field. This, the official guide to the Museum of London and the first of the Scala Talking Guides, covers all aspects of social, cultural and political life in London from the first prehistoric settlements, right up to its present position as a financial and artistic world city. By selecting significant pieces of ceramics, jewellery, paintings, photographs, printed ephemera, sculpture and a range of commercial, industrial and domestic items from the entire collection, this book conveys the sheer size and variety of the Museum's holdings. With specially commissioned colour photographs and monochrome archival prints, it dramatically displays every aspect of London life.

The Ecological Theater and the Evolutionary Play

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hutchinson, G. Evelyn, PUBLISHER: Yale University Press, In the three lectures which give their title to this delightful collection of esays, the author of "The Enchanted Voyage" and "The Itinerate Ivory Tower" turns his attention to the influence of the environment on the course of evolution. The first lecture considers the nature of the terrestrial biosphere, both as a unique phenomenon on earth and as one of a class of possible spaces on other bodies; the second examines the nature of the ecological niche; and the third discusses some of the possible environmental interactions of a single species, emphasis being placed on the extremely recondite nature of the selective forces that act on man, as on other animals. Another of the pieces deals with the problem of the relation of natural beauty to works of art, particularly in the context of the similarities and differences apparent when natural history museums and art galleries are compared. The final essay, "The Cream in the Gooseberry Fool," is an account of the role of an English country clergyman and of the European magpie most in one of the most significant early discoveries of genetics.

The Orvis Pocket Guide to Fly Fishing for Stillwater Trout:

Ponds and lakes undergo many moods and changes throughout the year.

In "The Orvis Pocket Guide to Fly Fishing for Stillwater Trout," Jim Lepage, longtime tackle designer, fly tyer, and stillwater expert, demystifies the challenges of lakes and ponds, which can seem huge and overwhelming until you know how to approach them correctly.

Lost Memoirs of Edgar Cayce: Life as a Seer

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Cayce, Edgar / Smith, A. Robert, PUBLISHER: A.R.E. Press (Association of Research & Enlig, The Edgar Cayce Story is one of the most compelling and inspiring that we have. For more than forty years, the "sleeping prophet" would close his eyes, enter an altered state of consciousness, and speak to the very heart and spirit of humanity on subjects such as health, dreams, prophecy, meditation, and reincarnation. Recently, a great number of Cayce's papers were rediscovered in which Cayce had sought to set down his reminiscences. A. Robert Smith, who found the papers, discovered -- to his astonishment -- that while Cayce had never written a continuous chronicle, he had covered most of the episodes, which Smith was then able to put together like the pieces of a giant puzzle. The picture that emerges is a virtually complete likeness of one of the great spiritual figures of our century. People who knew Edgar Cayce personally say that he really comes alive in these pages. His "autobiography" will hold you spellbound and leave you in wonder at the potential of humankind.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dunbar, George, PUBLISHER: Bps Blackwell, Using a series of over 40 case studies, this valuable text illustrates the processes and pitfalls involved in evaluating psychological research. Invites students to consider whether the conclusion drawn at the end of each case is correct, or whether the results could have an alternative explanation. Cross-referencing between sections is made easy by page references that link the case studies and explanations.

Equips students to critically evaluate published research. The author and publishers have made every effort to be fair to the authors of the research described in this book.
