Book Synopsis A History of Novartis by : Walter Dettwiler
Download or read book A History of Novartis written by Walter Dettwiler and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the world's leading pharmaceutical companies, the Swiss multinational Novartis traces its history and that of its predecessor companies back to the first dye factories in Basel in the early 19th century. This second edition of the company's history covers early exports and expansion abroad, the unparalleled upsurge of the chemical industry in Basel during the First World War and then the emergence of pharmaceuticals in the interwar years. The enormous challenges of the Second World War were followed by an economic boom in the 1950s and 60s, the merger of CIBA and Geigy, the numerous diversifications in the 1970s and 80s, the merger of Ciba and Sandoz to found Novartis, and finally the first 25 years of Novartis. Those 25 years have included innovations in pharmaceuticals and medicine, and game-changing technologies such as the modification of T-cells. In addition to the running text, fifteen thematic articles outline the company's widely different innovations: from CIBA's early hormone preparations to the outstanding graphic design of Geigy Design, from revolutionary drugs like Sandimmune or Gleevec right through to the Novartis Campus project.
Book Synopsis Novartis by : Novartis Pharmaceuticals
Download or read book Novartis written by Novartis Pharmaceuticals and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Swiss pharmaceutical industry is world-famous, and of today's top five global pharmaceutical businesses, two are Swiss - Roche and Novartis. Novartis was created in 1996 from a merger between three other major companies, Ciba, Geigy and Sandoz (the merger was the biggest ever in business history worldwide up to that point), but despite being a relatively new name, it is rooted in over 150 years of history. Focusing on the emergence of Novartis, this authoritative book is also the fascinating story of how Switzerland's pharmaceutical industry grew out of early dye-production for textiles in the mid nineteenth century, scored major triumphs with the introduction of products such as DDT and Valium in the twentieth century, and developed into the far-reaching international healthcare providers of today.
Book Synopsis Bürgin Nissen Wentzlaff Architekten by : Bürgin Nissen Wentzlaff Architekten
Download or read book Bürgin Nissen Wentzlaff Architekten written by Bürgin Nissen Wentzlaff Architekten and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Architecture -- consequently a book on architecture as well -- can be contradictory: it should ask questions and explain processes rather than offer solutions". The first monograph on Burgin Nissen Wentzlaff owes its unusual concept to this statement by the three architects. Whereas the buildings and projects of the past twelve years are precisely documented on the right-hand pages in the book, the texts, illustrations, pictures, and questions on the left-hand pages demonstrate the tasks and challenges characteristic for the work of the office. The central themes include "side issues", "disintegration of archetypes", "interaction of form and interpretation", "comprehensive seeing", and "senses and scales". The frictions and contradictions between these two sides of the practice are not oppressed or censored but are consciously juxtaposed. The resulting book oscillates between idea and building, reality and concept, offering a stimulating insight into the work of this unique architectural office.

Book Synopsis Working in Style by : Chris van Uffelen
Download or read book Working in Style written by Chris van Uffelen and published by Braun Publishing. This book was released on 2015 with total page 455 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of an office is far more diverse than it used to be ; gone are the days of factory floor-style expanses and monotonous cell-like structures. Now they function as both a company's individual calling card and an inspiring work environment. Office architecture and design have flourished into a complex discipline that is continually developing new solution scenarios that put the distinctive needs of individual employees front and center and, in doing so, foster communication, motivation and achievement. This volume presents over 100 projects from around the globe, incorporating local and firm specific examples of office architecture and putting the newest insights of research into the work place to the test : from the low-budget and creatively designed work space of the start-up, via the multifunctional office of an advertising agency separated into flexible zones and devoid of fixed work places, to elaborately furnished and prestigious offices of law firms. Each of these office worlds is also a habitat, a source of unique fascination and inspiration.

Book Synopsis Building as Ornament by : Michiel van Raaij
Download or read book Building as Ornament written by Michiel van Raaij and published by Nai010 Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ornament is back in architecture, but now on the scale of the building as a whole. One letter out of the alphabet, a pile of pebbles or a national emblem - the diversity of forms the new architecture can take seems infinite. In this book, Michiel van Raaij, in ten interviews, investigates how this new architecture emerged in the late 1990s and how it developed at the start of the twenty-first century. A new generation of architects sees the design of the upscaled ornament as an inextricable element of their practice. What are their motivations? How do they place their ideas in the tradition of their age-old profession? Michiel van Raaij argues that the design of the ornament, the iconography of the building, is bound by certain rules. A successful ornament represents a virtue and clarifies the function, status, construction, organization and context of the building."--Back cover.

Book Synopsis Architecture and Structuralism by : Herman Hertzberger
Download or read book Architecture and Structuralism written by Herman Hertzberger and published by Nai010 Publishers. This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architect and architectural author Herman Hertzberger (1932) is internationally recognized for both his built work and his written work. Buildings such as Centraal Beheer in Apeldoorn (1972) and many of Apeldoorn's schools, but also his publications, such as Lessons for Students in Architecture (which has been translated into many languages) have inspired generations of architects and students. In this book, Hertzberger lays down the foundations of his architectural vision. 'This book is an attempt to formulate what structuralism means in architecture, and why that matters. There are many misunderstandings about the concept of structuralism in general, and especially where architecture is concerned. There is also a renewed interest in structuralism. What I see as the real structuralism in architecture is a way of thinking that has far-reaching opportunities for the reuse of buildings, which can give a new impulse to the discussion about sustainability. In addition, the possibility of users having a greater influence has revealed the blueprint for a more democratic architecture. - Herman Hertzberger, Exhibition: The New Institute, Rotterdam, The Netherlands (20.09.2014-January 2015).--Provided by publisher.
Book Synopsis The Shape of Evidence by : Sophie Berrebi
Download or read book The Shape of Evidence written by Sophie Berrebi and published by Valiz/Vis-A-VIS. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shape of evidence' examines the role and use of visual documents in contemporary art, looking at artworks in which the document is valued not only as a source of information but also as a distinctive visual and critical form. It contends that for artists who use film, photography or written sources, adopting formats derived from specific professional, industrial, scientific of or commercial contexts, the document offers a way to develop a critical reflection around issues of representation, knowledge production, art and its history. It addresses several issues that are key both in art and in general culture today: the role of the museum and the archive, the role of documents and the trust that is placed in them, the circulation of such images and the historical genealogies that can be drawn in relation to images. It is based on a close reading of a select number of works of art (e.g. Christopher Williams, Fiona Tan, Jean-Luc Moulène), which makes it approachable and engaging with the reader. The book investigates objects and ideas drawn from a wide spectrum of areas including literature, history, photography history, scientific representation, surrealism, conceptual art, commercial photography etc. Ultimately the book invites viewers to reflect upon the production and interpretation of seemingly straightforward images, and proposes that some artists can show us through their practice how to turn these deceptively simple images inside out.

Book Synopsis Home is where the Dog is by : Erik van der Weijde
Download or read book Home is where the Dog is written by Erik van der Weijde and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four white walls that enclose a tropical garden set the limits for this carefully directed view that photographer Erik van der Weijde offers us. Bathing cousins, a posing wife, the undisturbed dog, a dead rat, a playing son, the smoking mother-in-law and a stoic cat - all become actors in a play about the boundaries of what's private and what's public. The images were shot with an iPhone during the first hours of dusk over the course of almost two years.
