Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The boundless and miraculous is what Vincent van Gogh believed we should all seek in our lives - and be satisfied with nothing less. He eventually found just that in his art, despite many struggles and profound difficulties which he recorded in his letters. These letters later became recognised for their literary qualities, such as simplicity, clarity, spontaneity and rich imagery. Such qualities are among those most prized in poetry. In The Boundless and Miraculous, extracts from Van Gogh's letters are presented as 'found poems', mainly in the form of sonnets. They record many of the pivotal moments in his life, and Van Gogh's frame of mind and his emotional state at these times are evident in the content and tone of the writing. There are also his views on the work of other artists, both his contemporaries and those who went before him. In particular, the poems encapsulate much of the thinking behind the way van Gogh's art developed, and notably the thought processes behind some of his most iconic paintings. With 87 colour plates, The Boundless and the Miraculous celebrates Van Gogh's spectacular art as well as his wonderful writing in what could be considered a series of brief autobiographical sketches. A fabulous gift book aimed at all lovers of Van Gogh's work, this volume will also make a major contribution to our understanding of his short and amazing life. AUTHOR: Larry Stapleton is the former Director of the Environmental Protection Agency. His poetry has been published in periodicals including Poetry Ireland Review, The Stinging Fly, THE SHOp, Cyphers, The Stony Thursday Book, Crannog, The Honest Ulsterman, The North, The Interpreter's House, Irish Pages and in The Irish Times. 870 colour illustrations Extracts from Van Gogh's letters are presented as `found poems', mainly in the form of sonnets.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Stop looking at the cosmetic paint job of standard expansion models. It's time to look at the literal mechanical gears of reality.Look around you. You are currently strapped to a rock hurtling through the vacuum of space at 66,000 miles per hour, yet your coffee doesn't spill. Modern cosmology looks out at the deep field, sees galaxies redshifted in every direction, and assumes the universe is a balloon blowing up. The scientific establishment has slammed its foot on the brake pedal, convinced of an explosive outward momentum.But they are falling for the ultimate cosmic auto-drift.In Accelerated Mass Theory (AMT), independent principal theorist Larry L. Stapleton reveals that the universe isn't expanding outward; our reality is living inside a dynamic, engineered five-dimensional scale-collapsing manifold. Because we, our instruments, and the very atoms of our base-10 reality is contracting proportionally along with the metric, we do not perceive the contraction. Instead, the collapsing geometry creates a profound optical distortion-a cosmic dolly zoom stretching the background light.This text bridges the gap between raw classical mechanics and advanced theoretical cosmology without relying on undiscovered particles or mathematical placeholders. Inside this mechanical blueprint, you will discover: Gravity as Inverted Lift: Redefining gravitational force not as a mysterious attractive ghost, but as aerodynamic drag and localized pressure differentials within a dynamic 5D metric.Decoding the Dark Sector: Mathematically deriving the observed 3.32:1 Dark Matter to Dark Energy ratio as a non-arbitrary geometric artifact of converting spatial scale momentum between natural binary processing and base-10 human observation.The 20-Micron Engineering Shift: Moving the theory from pure abstraction to rigorous laboratory testability, predicting the exact sub-millimeter parameters where spatial flow hits the Planck resolution limit.Written by a career Certified PCB CID+ Designer and lifelong systems mechanic, AMT applies the same diagnostic rigor used to rebuild an engine block to the fabric of spacetime. It is engineered for astronomers, data analysts, physicists, and critical thinkers who demand a falsifiable, mechanics-driven alternative to the standard model.Get ready to stop looking at the paint job and start looking at the gears.
