Description:
Naxos of America : Cherry Hill, N.J., 2002. Paperback. Fine/Fine. This unpretentious text by Keith Anderson offers an introduction to the lives and works of many composers, together with recommended recordings of their works. This book is an exceptionally well written and succinct yet detailed guide to the great composers and classical music repertoire. Anderson includes a useful 59-page glossary of musical terms and an extensive listing of classical pieces used in films. The odd thing about the information about the composers is that they do not form an A-to-Z at all. Rather, they are arranged chronologically, from 1,000-year-old Gregorian chant to the contemporary composer Philip Glass. Between these two points is the early music of Palestrina and Byrd; the Baroque glories of Vivaldi and Bach; the 19th-century Romantic masters, from Beethoven to Tchaikovsky; and such 20th-century greats as Rachmaninov and Stravinsky. Opera, song, and chamber music are also represented. The book offers a good…

An exploration of the age-old complicity between skywatchers and warfighters
-------------------------
In this fascinating foray into the centuries-old relationship between science and military power, acclaimed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson and writer-researcher Avis Lang examine how the methods and tools of astrophysics have been enlisted in the service of war. "The overlap is strong, and the knowledge flows in both directions," say the authors, because astrophysicists and military planners care about many of the same things: multi-spectral detection, ranging, tracking, imaging, high ground, nuclear fusion, and access to space. Tyson and Lang call… Read More

Achilles in the Quantum Universe The Definitive History of Infinityby Richard Morris Published by Henry Holt and Company 1997, stated First Edition,
ISBN#: 0805047794, Hard bound, Mint- condition (New with a small light
green ink spot on top page edges and a very small tear near the top of the
jacket spine). Centuries ago, when the
ancient philosopher Zeno proposed his famous paradox involving Achilles and
the Tortoise, he struck at the heart of one of science's most enduring and
intractable problems: How do we define the infinite? From then on, our
greatest natural philosophers, logicians, mathematicians, and scientists,
from Aristotle to Stephen Hawking have been stymied - and driven - by
infinity. Acclaimed science writer Richard Morris has written a
fascinating, literate, and entertaining tour of the efforts throughout
history to make sense of the mind-bending concept of the infinite. In
tracing this quest, Morris shows how each new encounter with infinity drove
the advancement of… Read More

Paperback
4.2 x 7 inches, 384 pages
African Genesis: A Personal Investigation into the Animal Origins and Nature of Man, usually referred to as African Genesis, is a 1961 nonfiction work by the American writer Robert Ardrey. It posited the hypothesis that man evolved on the African continent from carnivorous, predatory ancestors who distinguished themselves from apes by the use of weapons. The work bears on questions of human origins, human nature, and human uniqueness. It has been widely read and continues to inspire significant controversy.
African Genesis is the first in Robert Ardrey's Nature of Man Series. It is followed by The Territorial Imperative (1966), The Social Contract (1970), and The Hunting Hypothesis (1976). It was illustrated by Ardrey's wife, the South African actress and illustrator Berdine Ardrey (née Grunewald).

This critically acclaimed text uses 15 dramatic episodes in American history to demonstrate the process of historical detective work and reconstruction. The authors use a unique combination of dramatic narrative and historical methods to engage students in the "doing" of history. The authors show how historians uncover raw materials, ask questions, and shape their findings into narrative to create what we read as "history." Students come to appreciate history as a dynamic field and become more involved as critical readers of history. This edition includes a final chapter on the Vietnam experience, and dramatic films as historical evidence.

12 CDs, 15 hours
Combining historical analysis with contemporary observation, Susan Jacoby dissects a new American cultural phenomenon-one that is at odds with our heritage of Enlightenment reason and with modern, secular knowledge and science. With mordant wit, Jacoby surveys an antirationalist landscape extending from pop culture to a pseudo-intellectual universe of "junk thought." Disdain for logic and evidence defines a pervasive malaise fostered by the mass media, triumphalist religious fundamentalism, mediocre public education, a dearth of fair-minded public intellectuals on the right and the left, and, above all, a lazy and credulous public.
Jacoby offers an unsparing indictment of the American addiction to infotainment-from television to the Web-and cites this toxic dependency as the major element distinguishing our current age… Read More
