Reading Design - Craig Hodgetts
In Reading Design, noted architect Craig Hodgetts sorts through the myriad of things that surround us with an eye trained by years of teaching at UCLA’s world class School of Architecture. Since the success of the precedent-setting Blueprints for Modern Living exhibition at the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Hodgetts has been immersed in the selection and appreciation of objects that are not only outstanding examples of contemporary design, but that exude an emotional connection to evolving lifestyles – attributes that range from the sublime to the brutal. Consisting of over two hundred hand drawn sketches illuminating themes and bold departures from the norm, this book can change the way we look at things, and break down the barriers that markets and tastemakers erect by their recommendations.

The Movie Art of Syd Mead: Visual Futurist - Craig Hodgetts, Syd Mead
Syd Mead is one of the most accomplished and widely respected artists and industrial designers alive today. His career boasts an incredible array of projects from designing cars to drafting architectural renderings, but he is most famous for his work as a concept artist on some of the most visually arresting films in the history of cinema. Since working on Star Trek: The Motion Picture in 1978 as a production illustrator Syd Mead has always aimed to render “reality ahead of schedule,” creating evocative designs that marry believable content with a neofuturistic form. It is this ability to predict technological potential that has helped Mead create such a distinctive and influential aesthetic. From his work with Ridley Scott on Blade Runner, to his striking designs for the light cycles in Tron, to his imposing concept art for the U.S.S. Sulaco in James Cameron’s Aliens, Syd Mead has played a pivotal role in shaping cinema’s vision of the future. The Movie Art of Syd Mead: Visual Futurist represents the most extensive collection of Mead’s visionary work ever printed, compiling hundreds of images, sketches and concept arts from a career spanning almost 40 years, many of which have never been seen in print before. Each entry provides a unique insight into the processes involved in Mead’s practice as well as illuminating the behind-the-scenes work involved in creating a fully realized, cinematic depiction of the future. With such a plethora of images from the many genre-defining films Mead has worked on, this is essential reading for film fans, artists and futurologists alike.

Pops - Craig Melvin
A deeply personal exploration of fatherhood, addiction, and resiliency from CraigMelvin, news anchor of NBCs Today show.For Craig Melvin this book ismore an investigation than a memoir. It's an opportunity to better understandhis father; to interrogate his family's legacy of addiction and despair butalso transformation and redemption; and to explore the challenges facing alldads--including Craig himself, a father of two young children.Growing up in Columbia, SouthCarolina, Craig had a fraught relationship with hisfather. LawrenceMelvin was a distant, often absent parent due to his drinking as well as hisjob working thegraveyard shift at a postal facility. Watching sports andtinkering on Lawrence's beloved (but unreliable) 1973 Pontiac LeMans were twoways father and son connected,but as Lawrence's drinking spiraled out ofcontrol, their bond was stretched to the breaking point. Fortunately, Craig hada loving, fiercely protective mother who held the family together. He also hada series of surrogate father figures in his life--uncles, teachers, workplacementors--who by their examples helped him figure out the kind of person andfather hewanted to be.Pops is the story of allthese men--and of the inspiring fathers Craig has met reporting his "DadsGot This Series" on the Today show. Pops is also the storyof Craig and Lawrence Melvin's long journey to reconciliation andunderstanding, and of how all these experiences and encounters have informedCraig's understanding of his own role as a dad.

Absolutely stunning'' M W Craven FROM CWA DAGGER AND DOUBLE McILVANNEY AWARD WINNER CRAIG RUSSELL COMES ANOTHER DARK, GRIPPING MASTERPIECE . . . A dark, riveting thriller set in 1920s Hollywood about "the greatest horror movie ever made", the curse said to surround it, and a deadly search, decades later, for the single copy rumoured still to exist. 1927: Hollywood studio fixer Mary Rourke is called to the palatial home of "the most desirable woman in the world", silent movie actress Norma Carlton, star of The Devil''s Playground. When Rourke finds Carlton dead, she wonders if the dark rumours she''s heard are true: that The Devil''s Playground really is a cursed production. But nothing in Hollywood is ever what it seems, and cynical fixer Rourke, more used to covering up the truth for studio bosses, finds herself seeking it out. 1967: Paul Conway, film historian and fervid silent movie aficionado, is on the trail of a tantalizing rumour: that a single copy of The Devil''s Playground-a Holy Grail for film buffs that was supposedly cursed and lost to time-may exist. His search takes him deep into the Mojave Desert, to an isolated hotel that hasn''t changed in forty years but harbours only one occupant-and a shocking secret.

Edward Gordon Craig patří k velkým divadelním vizionářům 20. století. Mezinárodně významná výstava divadelního umění Theaterkunst-Ausstellung 1914 v curyšském Kunstgewerbemuseum představila Angličana Gordona Craiga - a spolu s ním Švýcara Adolpha Appiu - jako významného jevištního reformátora své doby. Craig podpořil svým působením v Curychu nejen reformu činoherního divadla, ale ovlivnil i vznik a vývoj marionetové scény Schweizerisches Marionettentheater (1918-1935).Kniha přibližuje slovem i mnoha ilustracemi Craigovu vizi odosobněného herce a nadloutky. Tato je vysvětlena na pozadí vývoje experimentálního divadla loutek a objektů v průběhu 20. století.Autorka objevila a identifikovala mimo jiné v Collection Craig v Bibliothèque Nationale v Paříži marionety z dílny školy Arena Goldoni, které byly 1914 v Curychu vystaveny. Také zdokumentovala divadelní vědě dosud neznámou Craigovu sbírku nacházející se ve vlastnictví Grafické sbírky v Museum für Gestaltung v Curychu. Tato sbírka je v knize představena veřejnosti.

In another, he unearths the Historical Online Archive and discovers that the invention of the wheel in Mesopotamia in 4000 BC drew fierce criticism on social media. “My mate tried it, says it''s total rubbish†wrote Brian from Sumeria.The acclaimed biographer of Princess Margaret and The Beatles delivers essays on such diverse figures as Ronald Searle, John Stonehouse, Bruce Springsteen, Richard Dawkins, Katie Price, Stanley Spencer, Harry and Meghan, Brian Epstein, Kenneth Williams, Ronald Reagan, Simon Dee and the Marx Brothers.With the full battery of the humourist''s armoury – clerihews, tongue-twisters, whimsy, parody, farce, satire, social observation, nonsense – Brown skewers the passing fads and delusions of the contemporary world.‘Our greatest living satirist’ Sunday Times‘Exquisitely naughty and hilarious’ Guardian‘Craig Brown’s humour will outlive his victims … his journalism is one of the few compensations for being British now’ Sunday Telegraph

Argo meets Spotlight, as New York Times bestselling author Craig Unger reveals his thirty-year investigation into the secret collusion between Ronald Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign and Iran, raising urgent questions about what happens when foreign meddling in elections goes unpunishedArgo meets Spotlight, as New York Times bestselling author Craig Unger reveals his thirty-year investigation into the secret collusion between Ronald Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign and Iran, raising urgent questions about what happens when foreign meddling in our elections goes unpunished and what gets remembered when the political price for treason is victory. In April 1991, the New York Times ran an op-ed alleging that Ronald Reagan’s 1980 presidential campaign had conspired with the Iranian government to delay the release of 52 American hostages until after the 1980 election. The Iranian hostage crisis was President Jimmy Carter’s largest political vulnerability, and his lack of success freeing them ultimately sealed his fate at the ballot box. In return for keeping Americans in captivity until Reagan assumed the oath of office, the Republicans had secretly funneled arms to Iran. Treasonous and illegal, the operation—planned and executed by Reagan’s campaign manager Bill Casey—amounted to a shadow foreign policy run by private citizens that ensured Reagan’s victory.Investigative journalist Craig Unger was one of the first reporters covering the October Surprise—initially for Esquire and then Newsweek—and while attempting to unravel the mystery, he was fired, sued, and ostracized by the Washington press corps, as a counter narrative took hold: The October Surprise was a hoax. Now Unger finally reveals the definitive story and sharing startling truths about what really happened in 1980. The result is a real-life political thriller filled with double agents, CIA operatives, slippery politicians, KGB documents, wealthy Republicans, and dogged journalists. Timely and provocative, with powerful echoes of Trump-era political scandals, Den of Spies demonstrates the stakes of allowing the politics of the moment to obscure the writing of our history.

Your doubts are an invitation to a deeper faith.Have you ever felt alone in your doubts? Or like you''re the only one with questions about your beliefs? If so, you''re in good company. Many heroes of the faith struggled with doubt—including C. S. Lewis, Martin Luther, and Mother Teresa.The good news is that having doubts about your faith doesn''t mean you''re not a faithful follower of Jesus. In fact, doubt indicates a desire for authentic faith. Often, it is the struggle of confronting your doubts that will lead you to a greater understanding of what you believe—and a deeper faith.In The Benefit of Doubt Workbook, which accompanies the book of the same name, pastor and bestselling author Craig Groeschel draws on scriptural truths, biblical characters, and church history to lead you through your doubts. You''ll dig deeper into some of the tough-to-answer questions that believers in Christ often ask, including:Why should I believe God is good?Why doesn''t God answer my prayers?Why does God feel so far away?Why would God send people to hell?If you''re ready to face and embrace your doubts, this workbook will provide you with thought-provoking questions and opportunities to understand your doubts and find deeper faith in the truth.This workbook is a companion to The Benefit of Doubt by Craig Groeschel. In each of the ten sessions, you''ll examine a passage of Scripture that addresses common doubts, and then you''ll get to assess your own beliefs about these topics.

Fantom karnevalu - Craig Russell
Policejní komisař Jan Fabel je po matce Skot a po otci Frís z pobřeží Severního moře. Z přístavního Hamburku, kde vede místní mordpartu, přijíždí řešit případ podivných vražd do Kolína nad Rýnem, velkoměsta pod věžemi obří gotické katedrály. Kolín je proslulý svým zimním karnevalem, který jako by se svou divokostí hodil spíš do Jižní Ameriky než do Porýní. A v posledních letech má karneval vždycky svou oběť - uškrcenou mladou ženu, z jejíhož těla si vrah odnesl kus pečlivě vyříznutého masa... V Kolíně nad Rýnem žije pod cizím jménem i kdysi sovětský důstojník u speciálních jednotek, nyní ukrajinský gangster Vasyl Vitrenko, velkoobchodník s lidmi a organizátor vražd. Jeden z nejhledanějších zločinců Evropy. Jan Fabel zprvu vůbec nepočítá s tím, že se vedle fantoma karnevalu střetne i s obávaným Vitrenkem, ale dojde k tomu a hamburský detektiv je nakonec ve dvojím ohni... V thrilleru Fantom karnevalu, který byl přeložen do více než dvaceti jazyků, došel spisovatel Craig Russell k vrcholům žánru, k němuž patří napětí, záhady a zmařené životy, stejně jako drobnokresba nejrůznějších situací a povah lidí, kteří se v nich ocitnou. Stačí ostatně rozevřít knížku a číst: už na prvních stránkách hledí v kolínském Starém městě dívka do očí bizarně oblečeného, děsivého klauna a jen o něco dál se za sklem v luxusním baru ukrývá zlo v lidské podobě...

Habíbí - Craig Thompson
Kniha, na kterou příznivci komiksového románu sedm let netrpělivě čekali.Po fenomenálním úspěchu díla Pod dekou pracoval Craig Thompson dlouho na svém mistrovském díle, téměř sedmisetstránkové alegorii ve stylu arabských pohádek a islámských příběhů. Odehrává se ve fiktivním světě, který je krutější a soudobější verzí Tisíce a jedné noci, a líčí životní osudy Dodoly a Zama, dvou uprchlých dětských otroků. Ti v ní projdou mnoha proměnami a překonávají početné překážky, jež se staví do cesty jejich lásce a shledání.Habíbí je milostný příběh s početnými přesahy, podobenství o roli člověka v přírodě, výpověď o rozdílech mezi vyspělým a rozvojovým světem, líčení společného kulturního dědictví křesťanství a islámu a v neposlední řadě opět neskutečná hostina vyzrálého vypravěčství a košatého, orientálně zdobného výtvarného stylu, který autora prudce odlišuje od minimalismu, jenž v oblasti „komiksů pro dospělé“ jinak drtivě převažuje.

Pratchett bavil své obecenstvo déle než čtyřicet let, už od svého románového debutu Kobercové, a bývá oslavován jako jeden z britských národních klenotů. Tato kniha vzdává hold Pratchettovým uměleckým úspěchům a nabízí nejen zasvěcený pohled na něj a jeho dílo, ale i shrnutí televizních adaptací, kompletní seznam jeho knih vydaných ve Velké Británii a návod pro jejich sběratele.

Genesis - Eric Schmidt, Henry A. Kissinger, Craig Mundie
In his final book, the late Henry Kissinger joins forces with two leading technologists to mount a profound exploration of the epochal challenges and opportunities presented by the revolution in Artificial Intelligence.As it absorbs data, gains agency, and intermediates between humans and reality, AI (Artificial Intelligence) will help us to address enormous crises, from climate change to geopolitical conflicts to income inequality. It might well solve some of the greatest mysteries of our universe and elevate the human spirit to unimaginable heights. But it will also pose challenges on a scale and of an intensity that we have never seen - usurping our power of independent judgment and action, testing our relationship with the divine, and perhaps even spurring a new phase in human evolution.The last book of elder statesman Henry Kissinger, written with technologists Craig Mundie and Eric Schmidt, Genesis charts a course between blind faith and unjustified fear as it outlines an effective strategy for navigating the age of AI.
