Eamonn Forde

1999

$45.00

The fascinating true story of the year in which everything changed in the music business.

This is the story of a year in which the record business appeared to be firing on all cylinders, when the CD was at its commercial zenith, bringing in staggering sums of money for the global record business. The good times – and they were phenomenal times, both culturally and financially – looked like they would never end for record labels.

Yet by December 1999, a bomb had been squarely set under their core business. All was to change with the arrival of digital music delivery.

Eamonn will tell the true story and not simply the oft-repeated tale of an industry complacent and caught napping.

1999

$18.99

It was supposed to be just another bumper year for the record business. The industry was firing on all cylinders and growing exponentially; CD was king and bringing in phenomenal sums of money. The good times, culturally and financially, were rolling. Yet by December 1999, at the dawn of the new millennium, a bomb had been set squarely under the core business – the arrival of digital as we know it today. The story of 1999 is one of control: who had it, who lost it and who wanted more. It was a year of chaos for an industry that had shaped the 20th century, had grown complacent and was quickly having to adapt to a very different and an infinitely less certain future. It was one of the most pivotal, lucrative, exciting and turbulent years the record business has ever experienced. And this is how it happened.

19th Century American Writers on Writing

$18.95

Nineteenth-Century American Writers on Writing features essays, letters, poems, prose, and excerpts of interviews by fifty-seven leading authors of the century. Each had to figure out what it meant to be a writer within the context of the relatively new nation they spoke to, for, and about. Each meditated on craft and style and form, as writers do. And each confronted the question of how to define themselves as writersand their literature as American”during a century rocked by the industrial revolution, the Civil War, and the emergence of a global politic.

Moniteurs

1:1 - Signage, Orientation, Identity

$59.95

"1 : 1 Signage, Orientation, Identity" is a special book. It not only describes a range of design projects over the last ten years design company Moniteurs, but the projects are graphically illustrated; in this way the book gets to the heart of Moniteurs' 1:1 communication systems. The concepts of individual projects are presented in short, concise texts with many photographs and infographics, while an interview with the three owners of the company, Heike Nehl, Sibylle Schlaich and Isolde Frey, gives an insight into their approach. Moniteurs has existed since 1994. In addition to the design of signs and orientation systems, the focal points of the company include information design and corporate design. This range is reflected in the diversity, depth and precision of the projects. Many of them have received awards, including the Red Dot Award for the design of the orientation system for the Aufbau Haus and the Iconic Design Award 2013 for the Potsdamer Platz orientation system. The BMW Plant Orientation System project was included in the touring exhibition of the Goethe Institutes' The Dimension of Surface – Communications Design in Germany.

1D – Die erste Dimension – 1D – The First Dimension

$62.95

Striche sind zeichenbare Gedanken und oft präziser als Worte. Nur zeichenbare Ideen können in einen gestalterischen Entwurf übertragen werden. 1D, die «erste Dimension», ist somit der Ausgangspunkt des Entwurfsprozesses, sei es in der Ausbildung oder in der beruflichen Praxis. Die Publikation stellt das Erlernen und die Funktion des Zeichnens in den Mittelpunkt. Dafür werden zeichnerische Arbeiten, die an der Schule für Gestaltung in Basel entstanden sind, entlang eines Begriffssystems in Form einer «Netzkarte» kommentiert. Dieses gibt zum einen die Qualitäten der Zeichnungen wieder und liefert zum anderen das Vokabular, um über den komplexen Prozess des Zeichnens überhaupt kommunizieren zu können – mit dem Ziel immer besserer Ergebnisse. Ein einführender Essay setzt sich auseinander mit dem Zeichnen als Wahrnehmungs- und Umsetzungsprozess; abgerundet wird das Buch durch Statements renommierter Gestalterinnen und Gestalter – begleitet durch eine Originalzeichnung – zur Bedeutung des Zeichnens in ihrem Schaffen.

Haruki Murakami

1Q84 Libro 3

$21.95

A las voces de Aomame la enigmática instructora de gimnasia y asesina y de Tengo el profesor de matemáticas y escritor, se suma, en este tercer volumen de la novela 1Q84, la de un nuevo personaje, un detective llamado Ushikawa. Su última misión, encargada por Vanguardia, el misterioso culto religioso, consistió en comprobar si Aomame era digna de confianza para trabajar para el líder. Ushikawa dio el visto bueno a la joven, pero ésta los traicionó a todos, cometió un nuevo asesinato y luego desapareció. Si el detective no logra encontrarla, la venganza de la secta se abatirá sobre él. Entretanto, Aomame y Tengo, cada uno a su modo, siguen deseándose en la ausencia, buscándose en el más puro estilo de Murakami casi sin moverse de su sitio, aislados, quizás a punto de experimentar un giro radical en sus vidas y esperando un reencuentro que los redima... en el mundo de 1984, o en el de 1Q84, ese fantasmagórico universo con dos lunas.

Haruki Murakami

1Q84 Libros 1 y 2

$32.95

En japonés, la letra q y el número 9 son homófonos, los dos se pronuncian kyu, de manera que 1Q84 es, sin serlo, 1984, una fecha de ecos orwellianos. Esa variación en la grafía refleja la sutil alteración del mundo en que habitan los personajes de esta novela, que es, también sin serlo, el Japón de 1984. En ese mundo en apariencia normal y reconocible se mueven Aomame, una mujer independiente, instructora en un gimnasio, y Tengo, un profesor de matemáticas. Ambos rondan los treinta años, ambos llevan vidas solitarias y ambos perciben a su modo leves desajustes en su entorno, que los conducirán de manera inexorable a un destino común. Y ambos son más de lo que parecen: la bella Aomame es una asesina; el anodino Tengo, un aspirante a novelista al que su editor ha encargado un trabajo relacionado con La crisálida del aire, una enigmática obra dictada por una esquiva adolescente. Y, como telón de fondo de la historia, el universo de las sectas religiosas, el maltrato y la corrupción, un universo enrarecido que el narrador escarba con precisión orwelliana.

Kalfus Ken

2 A.M. in Little America

$25.00

From “an important writer in every sense” (David Foster Wallace), a novel that imagines a future in which sweeping civil conflict has forced America’s young people to flee its borders, into an unwelcoming world.

One such American is Ron Patterson, who finds himself on distant shores, working as a repairman and sharing a room with other refugees. In an unnamed city wedged between ocean and lush mountainous forest, Ron can almost imagine a stable life for himself. Especially when he makes the first friend he has had in years—a mysterious migrant named Marlise, who bears a striking resemblance to a onetime classmate.
Nearly a decade later—after anti-migrant sentiment has put their whirlwind intimacy and asylum to an end—Ron is living in “Little America,” an enclave of migrants in one of the few countries still willing to accept them. Here, among reminders of his past life, he again begins to feel that he may have found a home. Ron adopts a stray dog, observes his neighbors, and lands a repairman job that allows him to move through the city quietly. But this newfound security, too, is quickly jeopardized, as resurgent political divisions threaten the fabric of Little America. Tapped as an informant against the rise of militant gangs and contending with the appearance of a strangely familiar woman, Ron is suddenly on dangerous and uncertain ground.
Brimming with mystery, suspense, and Kalfus’s distinctive comic irony, 2 A.M. in Little America poses several questions vital to the current moment: What happens when privilege is reversed? Who is watching and why? How do tribalized politics disrupt our ability to distinguish what is true and what is not? This is a story for our time—gripping, unsettling, prescient—by one of our most acclaimed novelists.

2 Corinthians

$18.99

Though few church squabbles today come close to matching the intensity and seriousness of what Paul faced in the commercial and hedonistic hotbed of Corinth, his strategies and pastoral wisdom in confronting the problems there can still serve as a helpful model for us in responding to a culture marked by individualism and materialism.

In Linda Belleville's careful study of 2 Corinthians, readers will find an introduction to the letter's occasion and purpose, authorship, and other background information, as well as its important theological themes. Passage-by-passage commentary follows that seeks to explain what the letter means for us today as well as what it meant for its original hearers. Students, pastors, Bible teachers and everyone who wants to understand Paul's message for the church will benefit from this excellent resource.

2 Degrees

$16.95

In the year 2092, climate change has transformed the face of Earth. Storms, disease, famine, thirst and war show no mercy on the living. Sharon Clausen, a self-reliant farmer, has a secret apple tree—a tree that keeps Sharon and her wife, Eve, fed. The only other people who know of her secret, or so she thinks, is Dr. Ryan, a long-time confidant, and his wife, Areva. Once a month, Sharon and Eve travel from Maine to Boston to trade apples with Dr. Ryan for Eve’s leukemia treatment. Everything suddenly changes when Eve is kidnapped and the Ryan’s are murdered. Sharon learns that her best kept secrets are known and coveted by a man known as the Strelitzia—a coldly practical villain. Sharon sets out on a harrowing journey across North America to rescue Eve. Along the way, she teams up with an Inuit refugee boy, a stray dog named Erik the Red, an eccentric former school teacher, a jujitsu master, an Argentinian opera star, and a brilliant scientist who leads an alliance of eclectic people known as the Qaunik. Together, this ragtag group battle horrific storms, an unrelenting desert, terrifying criminal gangs, feral humans, and the Strelitzia. In the end, Sharon must face her greatest challenge—risking all that she loves for something much greater than herself.

2 Maccabees

$380.00

2 Maccabees is a Jewish work composed during the 2nd century BCE and preserved by the Church. Written in Hellenistic Greek and told from a Jewish-Hellenistic perspective, 2 Maccabees narrates and interprets the ups and downs of events that took place in Jerusalem prior to and during the Maccabean revolt: institutionalized Hellenization and the foundation of Jerusalem as a polis; the persecution of Jews by Antiochus Epiphanes, accompanied by famous martyrdoms; and the rebellion against Seleucid rule by Judas Maccabaeus. 2 Maccabees is an important source both for the events it describes and for the values and interests of the Judaism of the Hellenistic diaspora that it reflects - which are often quite different from those represented by its competitor, 1 Maccabees.

2 Peter & Jude

$15.99

The miracle of being forgiven is perhaps equaled only by the wonder of also being trusted again. That wondrous experience in the life of Simon Peter ultimately produced remarkable letters, full of warning and hope, solemn instruction and glorious promise. Because of that grace in Peter's past, his words in the book of 2 Peter are able to strengthen we who are his brothers and sisters in faith. Jude follows 2 Peter, yet because of its brevity and difficult message it is one of the most neglected books of Scripture. Still, it too reflects God's redemptive story and offers important insight for God's people. In this volume, Robert Harvey and Philip H. Towner delve into 2 Peter and Jude, exploring issues of authorship, canonicity, purpose and themes and ultimately showing how they relate to the life of the church.

COMPLETELY REVISED AND UPDATED 2ND EDITION

Dr. Gary Small and Gigi Vorgan’s 2 Weeks To A Younger Brain translates the latest brain science into practical strategies and exercises that yield quick and long- lasting benefits.

Misplacing your keys, forgetting someone’s name at a party, or coming home from the market without the most important item — these are just some of the many common memory slips we all experience from time to time. But such cognitive lapses don’t just plague middle-agers and seniors; UCLA studies indicate that forgetfulness begins much earlier in life. Scientists can detect subtle changes in the brain that coincide with mental decline by the time we reach age 40, and our findings show that people as young as 20 already have memory problems.

2 Weeks to a Younger Brain will not only improve your memory, but will also strengthen your physical health by reducing your risk for diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. The latest research confirms that there is a lot we can do to boost our memory and keep our brains young. After three decades of helping thousands of patients improve their memory and mental acuity, Dr. Small and Gorgan are convinced that our daily lifestyle habits are directly linked to our brain health. This book will show that it only takes two weeks to form new habits that bolster cognitive abilities and help stave off, or even reverse, brain aging.

If you commit only 14 days to 2 Weeks To A Younger Brain, you will reap noticeable results. During that brief period, you will have learned the secrets to keeping your brain young for the rest of your life.

2% Chance

$24.99

One devastating accident. A 2 percent chance of ever walking again. Three lives intertwined forever.
Accidents happen. But what if you were involved in an accident so horrific that it left you with a 98 percent chance of permanent paralysis? Would you lose faith? Lose hope? Would you find yourself angry and resentful? Or would you find the courage to forgive? What if you had been the driver of the truck? Or the neurosurgeon faced with putting a man’s life back together as his window of hope to ever walk again rapidly closed?
These three men were faced with such a scenario one steamy Charlotte morning after Dean Otto was accidentally run down by a truck while out for a bike ride. As he lay there broken on Providence Road, his spine shattered, unable to move his lower half, Dean knew his life would be changed forever. But he could never have imagined the journey to come, or the deep bonds he would form with the man who hit him and the doctor who healed him.
Featured on Ellen and the Today show, Dean Otto’s miraculous journey has already inspired millions. This is a story of hope, inspiration, and the power of forgiveness. It’s about the lives of three men becoming forever intertwined because of the choices they made to lean into a single moment of their lives—to allow the best of humanity to shine. And to light the way for others.

2. Mai 1552 – 11. Juli 1553

$196.00

Mit einer grundsätzlichen Erneuerung des Staatswesens durch den Kurfürsten Moritz begann für Sachsen der Weg in die frühmoderne Staatlichkeit. Moritz unterstützte die Reform der Universität Leipzig und begründete die fürstlichen Landesschulen in Meißen, Pforta und Grimma, wo vor allem fähige Juristen und Theologen für die Landesverwaltung und die Landeskirche herangebildet wurden. Als Moritz nach dem Schmalkaldischen Krieg und der Gefangennahme Kurfürst Johann Friedrichs d. Ä. durch Kaiser Karl V. fast alle ernestinischen Gebiete östlich der Saale sowie die Kurwürde mit dem Kurkreis um Wittenberg erhalten hatte, begann er eine tiefgreifende Umgestaltung und Modernisierung des Landes. Er reformierte die Verwaltung und das Gerichtswesen, effektivierte Finanzverwaltung und Steuerwesen und förderte den Bergbau. Zugleich erlebte Sachsen eine kulturelle Blüte. Moritz holte italienische Künstler nach Dresden, begründete die Hofkapelle und ließ das Dresdner Schloß zu einem repräsentativen Renaissanceschloß umbauen. Durch seine Emanzipation vom Kaiser und den Versuch einer eigenständigen Außenpolitik, verbunden mit einer weitreichenden Bündnispolitik, gewann Moritz schließlich die führende Position unter den evangelischen Ständen. Durch seine Politik, die ihn zunächst auf die Seite des Kaisers gegen den Schmalkaldischen Bund, dann aber im Bündnis mit Frankreich an die Spitze der Opposition gegen Karl V. führte, ist Moritz zugleich eine der umstrittensten Persönlichkeiten der deutschen Geschichte des 16. Jahrhunderts. Die edierten Quellen korrigieren auch einige von seinen historischen Gegnern herrührende und tradierte Fehlurteile über Moritz. Die Edition der Moritz-Korrespondenz war eines der Gründungsprojekte der Sächsischen Kommission für Geschichte. Durch Erich Brandenburg konnten 1900 und 1904 die ersten beiden Bände veröffentlicht werden. Ein fast fertiges Manuskript für einen weiteren Band, erarbeitet durch Oswald Arthur Hecker, verbrannte 1945 bei der Bombardierung Dresdens. Ab 1956 wurde bei der Sächsischen Akademie der Wissenschaften und ihrer Historischen Kommission unter Leitung von Hellmut Kretzschmar und Franz Lau ein Neuanfang gestartet. Mit zunächst sehr geringer Ausstattung begannen Johannes Herrmann und Helga Maria Kühn die Vorarbeiten für die weiteren Bände. Band 3 - bearbeitet von Herrmann und Günther Wartenberg - konnte 1978 publiziert werden. Zu einer Intensivierung der Arbeit führte nach 1990 die Begründung des Akademieunternehmens "Quellen und Forschungen zur sächsischen Geschichte", es erschienen die Bände 4 und 5 der Korrespondenz. Um den großen Umfang der Korrespondenz des Herzogs und Kurfürsten bewältigen zu können, wird der größte Teil des Materials in Form von Regesten - sachinhaltlichen Auszügen der Urkunden, Briefe und Akten mit nötigen kritischen Anmerkungen - ediert. Die wörtliche Wiedergabe ist auf wichtige Schreiben des Kurfürsten und entscheidende Dokumente, wie Verträge, begrenzt. Nach inhaltlichen Kriterien werden zu den Hauptstücken weitere Regesten zugeordnet, so daß ein Band der Korrespondenz über 3000 Dokumente enthält, die alle im Original eingesehen wurden. Eine wissenschaftliche Einleitung sowie ein umfangreiches Personen- und Ortsregister erschließen die Quellenstücke. Das Register kann durch die Angabe von Lebensdaten und Funktionen der Personen selbst als Quelle für genealogische und biographische Forschung dienen. Band VI umfaßt die Zeit vom 2. Mai 1552 bis zum Tod des Kurfürsten Moritz am 11. Juli 1553. Schwerpunkte sind die Verhandlungen des Kurfürsten mit König Ferdinand und Vertretern der Reichsstände in Passau, der Passauer Vertrag vom 2. August 1552, der Kriegszug des Kurfürsten nach Ungarn im Herbst 1552, Bündnisverhandlungen mit König Ferdinand, mit den Fürsten des Heidelberger Bundes und mit Frankreich 1552/53 sowie das Verhältnis zu den Ernestinern und der Konflikt mit Markgraf Albrecht Alcibiades von Brandenburg bis zum Tod des Kurfürsten in der Schlacht bei Sievershausen. Der Band präsentiert 714 Dokumente in chronologischer Folge sowie ca. 2500 weitere, nach sachlichen Gesichtspunkten zugeordnete Aktenstücke.

Lisa Kron

2.5 Minute Ride and 101 Humiliating Stories

$14.95

This book collects Lisa Kron's two extraordinary solo performance works. Best known for her ongoing work as a member of The Five Lesbian Brothers, Kron's solo pieces are very personal examinations of both herself and her family history. This is singularly clear in 2.5 Minute Ride, where her writing deftly maneuvers between the tragic drama of the Holocaust and the wry comedy of her family's attempts to pursue pleasure at the local amusement park. This critically acclaimed work played to sold out audience for over six months at New York's Public Theatre. Also included is the riotous 101 Humiliating Stories, which first premiered in 1993, and in fact only consists of seventeen tales but each, as the author observes, has several humiliations. It recounts the adventures and misadventures of a self-described Big Lesbian as she tests the boundaries of decorum in social and professional situations.

20 Egyptian Songs to Learn and Sing

Learning Egyptian Colloquial Arabic the fun way, through popular song

Songs are a great way to learn a language, and popular songs can reveal much about the culture and traditions of a country where the language is spoken. 20 Egyptian Songs to Learn and Sing brings together twenty songs performed by popular Egyptian singers, from iconic twentieth-century diva Umm Kulthum to present-day singing sensation Amr Diab. Following on the success of Kilma Hilwa: Egyptian Arabic through Popular Songs: Intermediate Level and Musiqa al-Kalimat: Modern Standard Arabic through Popular Songs: Intermediate to Advanced (AUC Press, 2015 and 2017), Bahaa Ed-Din Ossama and Tessa Grafen build a lively variety of language lessons around each song, accompanying them with notes on vocabulary, grammar and usage, and exercises. Aimed at beginner learners of Egyptian Colloquial Arabic and fans of Arab popular music, 20 Egyptian Songs to Learn and Sing is a motivational and highly enjoyable approach to learning Egyptian Arabic.

20 Something Manifesto

If you’re in your twenties, you’re likely feeling the combination of the excitement of this defining decade and the pressure to figure out your entire life. The thrill of newfound independence and opportunity can be quickly squelched by worry, disillusionment, or disappointment. Like thousands of other twenty somethings, you may have experienced what life coach and quarter-life expert Christine Hassler calls an Expectation Hangover.” This manifesto explores the all-important questions and life choices of these turbulent yet exciting years.

Twenty somethings may commiserate about the challenges they face, but few resources offer practical lessons or suggestions. In these pages, quarter-life men and women tell their stories, sharing their successes and failures, along with their frustrations and realizations. The author’s insightful commentary and take away” suggestions provide the tools and skills you need to create change and direction in your life. You’ll recognize and articulate your personal goals, paving the way to what you truly want.

20-Something, 20-Everything

$18.95

The mid-20s through the mid-30s can be a time of difficult transition: the security blanket of college and parents is gone, and it's suddenly time to make far-reaching decisions about career, investments, even adult identity. When author Christine Hassler experienced such a quarter-life crisis, she found that she was not alone. In fact, an entire generation of young women is questioning their choices, unsure if what they’ve been striving for is what they really want. They're eager to set a new course for their lives, even if that means giving up what they have.

Hassler herself left a fast-moving career that wasn't right for her and instead took the risk of starting her own business. Now, based on her own experience and interviews with hundreds of women, she shares heartfelt stories on issues from career to parents to boyfriends to babies. Yet she provides practical exercises, too, to enable the woman of today to chart a new direction for her own life.

20. November 1852 bis 10. Dezember 1853

$224.00

Im Jahr 1853 spitzte sich die orientalische Frage zu einer kriegsreifen, enorm bedrohlichen Situation in Europa zu. Der Band enthält rund 500 Quellen aus verschiedenen englischen Archiven und Nachlässen und macht deutlich, dass eine Grundannahme der bisherigen Forschung nicht zutrifft: Die englische Regierung stellte sich nur widerstrebend gegen Russland und auf die Seite Frankreichs.

Das lokale "Mönchsgezänk" an den Heiligen Stätten in Palästina verschärfte sich 1853 durch die Forderungen des russischen Zaren an die türkische Regierung zunächst zu französisch-russischen Spannungen, die zu hektischen Friedensbemühungen der deutschen Mächte Österreich und Preußen führten. Aus den hier publizierten Quellen geht deutlich hervor, dass nicht die englische Regierung die französisch-russischen Konflikte schürte, wie bisher in der Forschung angenommen, sondern dass sie sich nur widerwillig auf die Seite Frankreichs schlug. Mit dem russischen Seesieg bei Sinope Ende November 1853 über die türkische Flotte wurden die letzten Widerstände in England gegen ein scharfes Vorgehen gegen Russland hinweggespült.

$21.99

“200 is a wild, sexy, twisted, and darkly entertaining trip into the future and deep into the human psyche. Writer Jennifer Brody and artist Jules Rivera make a kickass team. Highly recommended!” —Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of V-Wars and Black Panther: Doomwar

It’s Eva Thorne’s 200th birthday.

But it’s not a celebration, more like a funeral. Eva lives in a world where the cure for aging and illness has been discovered and administered to every person on Earth. Only, there’s one big hitch. It turns out that very few people can handle immortality. So on their two hundredth birthday, they have to take a test. If they pass, they get to live forever. But if they fail, they must be euthanized.

Eva’s not an optimist. She’s pretty sure she’s going to fail her Centurial Assessment Test. For starters, almost nobody passes anymore. She’s seen the news stories. But more than that, Eva can tell that she’s already starting to slip mentally. Ever since the Escorts took her husband Owen away for his test and he never came back, she’s been chainsmoking cigarettes (they can’t kill her after all), binge drinking, and waiting for the Escorts to get it over with already.

Who wants to live forever if you have to do it alone?

Here’s the truth―Owen was her husband for over 170 years. He was her soulmate. Her lover. Her goofball best friend. Her partner in crime. Her everything. But on the way to her testing room, Eva glimpses a staffer who resembles her husband.

Suddenly, she has to find out the truth about what happened to him. Suddenly, she has a reason to live. Did he pass his test? Does he get to live forever? Can Eva join him for this next part of their lives? Or is she destined to fail her test and be euthanized?

Now Eva must escape from the testing facility and find out if her husband passed his test―and what he’s been doing for the past six months. With the Escorts hunting her down, she kidnaps the staffer and drags him to the roof, discovering that it’s Owen―only he can’t remember her because they wiped his memory. When you pass your CAT test, you must leave your old life behind. Eva must now find a way for him to remember their life together or lose him forever to his new immortal existence.

200 Years at St. John's York Mills

$50.00

The history of the oldest parish church in the Toronto area is also the history of North Toronto and a changing culture.

The War of 1812 was barely over when the people of York Mills felled the trees that would become the first St. John’s Anglican Church. Built in 1816 on land donated by pioneer settlers Joseph and Catherine Shepard, the little log church was the first outpost of St. James Church in the Town of York and the first parish church in what would one day become the City of Toronto. The brick church that stands there today, high on the land overlooking Hogg’s Hollow, was completed in 1844. Though enlarged and improved over the years, it continues to serve as a welcoming place of worship and a valuable repository of Canadian history.

200 Years of Peace

$135.00

Since 1814 Sweden has avoided involvement in armed conflicts and carried out policies of non-alignment in peacetime and neutrality during war. Even though the Swedish government often describes Sweden as a ‘nation of peace’, in 2004 the 200-year anniversary of that peace passed by with barely any attention. Despite its extraordinary longevity, research about the Swedish experience of enduring peace is underdeveloped. 200 Years of Peace places this long period of peace in broader academic and public discussions surrounding claimed Swedish exceptionality as it is represented in the nation’s social policies, expansive welfare state, eugenics, gender equality programs, and peace.

200 Years Yonge

$24.95

The Yonge Street as conceived by Lieutenant-Governor John Graves Simcoe is celebrated, from its beginning as a First Nation's Trail, to the Yonge Street we know today, extending from Toronto to Innisfil. Augustus Jones, the surveyor assigned by Simcoe, the French, the German pioneers, the Loyalists – all were to influence the building of Yonge Street. With the building of a route came tolls, inns, villages, more immigrants and ultimately an avenue of economy serving as the key transportation route for the people, goods and services that represent our province.

2000 Years of Housing in Vienna

$38.00

The history of housing can also be told as the (cultural) history of a city from its agricultural settlement by the Celts to the social housing of the present. Within this dual history, political and economic developments, as well as social norms, came to be reflected in forms of housing that, at the end of the twentieth century, increasingly drew critique. Under the influence of international developments, this has led to the diversity characterizing society and housing construction today. In this book, Wolfgang Förster—initiator of the International Building Exhibition “Vienna: New Social Housing”—explores how the sociocultural history of a city can be told through the development of its housing.

2000 Years of Mayan Literature

$31.95

Mayan literature is among the oldest in the world, spanning an astonishing two millennia from deep pre-Columbian antiquity to the present day. Here, for the first time, is a fully illustrated survey, from the earliest hieroglyphic inscriptions to the works of later writers using the Roman alphabet. Dennis Tedlock—ethnographer, linguist, poet, and award-winning author—draws on decades of living and working among the Maya to assemble this groundbreaking book, which is the first to treat ancient Mayan texts as literature. Tedlock considers the texts chronologically. He establishes that women were among the ancient writers and challenges the idea that Mayan rulers claimed the status of gods. 2000 Years of Mayan Literature expands our understanding and appreciation not only of Mayan literature but of indigenous American literature in its entirety.

Has architectural theory become a historical phenomenon to be anthologized and studied as another passing phase in the history of the discipline? Do the current commonplace watchwords of "practice" and "research" mark the end of theory's place in architectural discourse? This edited volume posits the contrary—that theory remains urgent and even unavoidable, so ingrained in architectural practice and pedagogy that it remains a vital if sometimes latent influence.

Architectural theory is not confined to its supposed heyday in the decades leading up to the year 2000; it has persisted and expanded as the stakes of theoretical discussions have transformed. 2000+: The Urgencies of Architectural Theory collects new essays from a range of the most compelling architectural historians and theorists of the moment, including Lucia Allais, Beatriz Colomina, Mark Cousins, Arindam Dutta, John Harwood, Catherine Ingraham, Mark Jarzombek, Mari Lending, Spyros Papapetros, Felicity Scott, Pelin Tan, Bernard Tschumi, Eyal Weizman, Mark Wigley, and Mabel Wilson. Brought together for a conference marking the end of Wigley's tenure as dean of Columbia University's Graduate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, these thinkers chart new directions and points of critical importance for theory in architecture.
