Book Synopsis Life's Data Stackers by : George Jones
Download or read book Life's Data Stackers written by George Jones and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-02-21 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how people can say and do such stupid hurtful things? Why do lovers quarrel, employees get fired, unions go on strike, nations go to war, people get divorced, and rumors run wild? If you knew the answers to these questions, and knew how to respond effectively to the causes behind these conflicts, you could vastly improve your relations with others - whether they be your children, your boss, or the President of Iran. George Jones wrote this book to give you the tools you need to understand the people in your life and to resolve your conflicts with them. He gives you these tools in a way that's clear and easy to understand and provides real-life examples that are often humorous, sometimes bizarre, and always compelling. At the core of Jones' approach is what he calls his "Nine Laws of Human Relations" - laws that will serve as a guide for your actions and provide insight into the actions of others.

Book Synopsis Quest Pandora by : Derrick John Wiggins
Download or read book Quest Pandora written by Derrick John Wiggins and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Has such a range of genres that you can't pigeon hole it into one, therefore it held my attention. The shadowy love story between the main characters', it spoke about technology from a whole new perspective. The description alone in the book allowed you to image the scenes as if you were walking through the novel with the characters." -LaShawn CIA field operative Matthew Roger Harris, called out of his two year retirement on request of his dying stepfather's final aspiration. His stepfather, curious to find out once and for all; can scientists generate a new self-sustaining sun. Harris, following the lead of a murdered scientist, directs him to the project, Pandora, a device that could harness the power of a star stronger than our sun. Who else could fashion such a thing but the Chelsea Company. Who else could help Harris find Pandora other than this Company who heads the world in technology. Harris has to make peace with Nzingha Chelsea, CEO of the Chelsea Company who he betrayed on his last mission two years earlier, and fight secret assassins, all in search of Pandora in order to complete his father's dying wish. His father is slipping away fast and Harris's time is running out. "Ambitious book with a large scope that doesn't disappoint. The pace is fast and cinamatic, yet Wiggins attention to detail and character gives the book depth and focus. There's action, there's romance, there's science fiction there's intrigue, there's politics, and there's a message." -Sermons

Book Synopsis A History of Artists' Film and Video in Britain by : David Curtis
Download or read book A History of Artists' Film and Video in Britain written by David Curtis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 533 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years the use of film and video by British artists has come to widespread public attention. Jeremy Deller, Douglas Gordon, Steve McQueen and Gillian Wearing all won the Turner Prize (in 2004, 1996, 1999 and 1997 respectively) for work made on video. This fin-de-siecle explosion of activity represents the culmination of a long history of work by less well-known artists and experimental film-makers. Ever since the invention of film in the 1890s, artists have been attracted to the possibilities of working with moving images, whether in pursuit of visual poetry, the exploration of the art form's technical challenges, the hope of political impact, or the desire to re-invigorate such time-honoured subjects as portraiture and landscape. Their work represents an alternative history to that of commercial cinema in Britain - a tradition that has been only intermittently written about until now. This major new book is the first comprehensive history of artists' film and video in Britain. Structured in two parts ('Institutions' and 'Artists and Movements'), it considers the work of some 300 artists, including Kenneth Macpherson, Basil Wright, Len Lye, Humphrey Jennings, Margaret Tait, Jeff Keen, Carolee Schneemann, Yoko Ono, Malcolm Le Grice, Peter Gidal, William Raban, Chris Welsby, David Hall, Tamara Krikorian, Sally Potter, Guy Sherwin, Lis Rhodes, Derek Jarman, David Larcher, Steve Dwoskin, James Scott, Peter Wollen and Laura Mulvey, Peter Greenaway, Patrick Keiller, John Smith, Andrew Stones, Jaki Irvine, Tracy Emin, Dryden Goodwin, and Stephanie Smith and Ed Stewart. Written by the leading authority in the field, A History of Artists' Film and Video in Britain, 1897-2004 brings to light the range and diversity of British artists' work in these mediums as well as the artist-run organisations that have supported the art-form's development. In so doing it greatly enlarges the scope of any understanding of 'British cinema' and demonstrates the crucial importance of the moving image to British art history.
