From the library of noted photography collector and dealer Terry Etherton. Alvin Booth [b. 1959] is an English-born photographer. His Osmosis images are deliberately more abstract, diffuse, and otherworldly than his previous works. The human form is reduced to its bare lines, and like a delicate gouache the body dissolves into the paper. The exquisite tones of the images and the graceful, ghostly figures are suggestive of 19th-century photography, reflecting Booth's old-world techniques and approach to the craft.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - What is history anyway Most people would say it's what happened in the past, but how far back does the past extend To the first written sources To what other forms of evidence reveal about pre-literate civilizations What does that term meanan empire, a nation, a city, a village, a family, a lonely hermit somewhere Why stop with people: shouldn't history also comprise the environment in which they exist, and if so on what scale and how far back And as long as we're headed in that direction, why stop with the earth and the solar system Why not go all the way back to the Big Bang itself There's obviously no consensus on how to answer these questions, but even asking them raises another set of questions about history: who should be doing it Traditionally trained historians, for whom archives are the only significant source Historians willing to go beyond archives, who must therefore rely on, and to some extent themselves become, psychologists, sociologists, anthropologists, archeologists But if they're also going to take environments into account, don't they also have to know something about climatology, biology, paleontology, geology, and even astronomy And how can they do that without knowing some basic physics, chemistry, and mathematics This inaugural volume of the SFI Press (the new publishing arm of the Santa Fe Institute) attempts to address these questions via thoughtful essays on history written by distinguished scholarsincluding Nobel laureate Murray Gell-Mannfrom across a wide range of fields. …
