Book excerpt: From New York Magazine's resident skincare obsessive, this friendly, start-where-you-are guide to the essentials of skincare helps readers cut through the noise to discover the routine that works for them. Skincare is one of the fastest-growing retail segments in the United States. But despite how much money Americans spend on products designed to tighten wrinkles, close pores, and increase hydration, there's little advice about how to figure out which one of a million eye creams will suit your skin and solve your particular skin health concerns. Enter Rio Viera-Newton, the beauty-obsessed best friend whose advice drives thousands of readers to New York magazine every week. Despite her popularity and trust, she's not an MD or an esthetician, but a devoted amateur who organically rose to fame when her detailed Google Doc outlining the products that worked—or didn't—on her journey to heal her acne went viral. Let's Face It is a compendium of super-simple principles for healthy skin, helping readers move beyond branding or the recommendations of influencers to discover the remedies that will solve their skin concerns—and to find them in products at any price point. This book also includes: Rio's five pillars of skin care Fixes for issues on a skin-type by skin-type basis Guidelines on how to layer your products for the most effective routine, day and night A close look at the ingredients found in many skin care products Tips and lessons from first-hand experience An overview of a traditional Korean skin care routine And much more With concrete steps to walk readers through the process of adding products to their routine, evaluating the results, and developing the routine that best works for them, Let's Face It is the only book the skincare-obsessed reader really needs—and it's the perfect gift for the beauty fanatic in your life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second volume of To Fathom the Gist examines in depth how Gurdjieff wrote Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson and discusses the three ways of reading the book in light of how the book was written. It provides useful perspectives on the book by examining the 1931 Manuscript (the earliest edition of The Tales) and comparing it to Gurdjieff's final version. It also analyzes the 1992 revision of The Tales in depth. Finally, this volume investigates the Arch-absurd-Beelzebub's assertion that our Sun neither lights nor heats.

Book excerpt: One of the many graces which Allah (swt) has bestowed upon the generous Muslim Ummah is that He (swt) has made the whole Earth pure, so that it serves as a mosque and a grand mihrab, where Allah (swt) is worshipped in every single corner of it, whether in the mosques, in the markets, in the streets, or at schools and universities, in the houses, at the frontiers and so on. Therefore, the whole earth is a mosque and this is indicated by the hadith reported by Bukhari and Muslim on the authority of Jabir ibn 'Abdullah that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, 'I have been granted five things which were not granted to any other prophet before me: I have gained victory with awe from the period of one month (before the battle); the Earth has been made sacred and pure and a mosque for me, so whenever the time of prayer comes for anyone of you, he should pray wherever he is; the spoils of war have been made lawful for me and these were never made lawful to anyone before; I have been granted shafa'a (intercession on the Day of Judgement); and every Prophet was sent particularly to his own people, whereas 1 have been sent to the whole of mankind.""

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty of the world's greatest modern buildings, from 1950 to the present, dissected and analyzed through specially commissioned freehand drawings After a period in which computation-derived architecture—driven by digital design tools, data analysis, and new formal expression—has thrived, students and their teachers have returned to age-old techniques before employing the digital tools that are a part of every architect’s studio. Tired of the perfectly rendered screen image, architects are making presentations that are clearly the work of the hand and the mind, not the computer. This ambitious publication, organized chronologically, is aimed at a new generation of architects who take technology for granted, but seek to further understand the principles of what makes a building meaningful and enduring. Each of the fifty works of architecture is presented through detailed consideration of its site, topology, and surroundings; natural light, volumes, and massing; program and circulation; details, fenestration, and ornamentation. Over 2,500 painstakingly hand-drawn images of the buildings of the past seven decades help readers return to the core values of understanding site and creating buildings: looking with the eyes, engaging through direct physical experience, and constructing by hand.
