Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Babe from Hell!" gasped Andre Marceau just as the wire rightened around his neck. A second later he lay sprawled on the ground -- dead. Close by his body were the tracks of tiny footsteps, beginning nowhere and leading nowhere...the only clues to one of the most shocking crimes of the Twentieth Century! That was the beginning of a mystery that Scotland Yark sleuths worked on frantically for two years and then abandoned in despair, without a solution. Yet it was to be solved, not by a detective, but by a resourceful and imaginative American newspaper man, who tracked down an overlooked clue and reopened the case. The thread of Destiny which brought a horrible death to Andre Marceau stretched through Europe to Japan and Australia and even America!

Book excerpt: "In my 30 years of performing professionally...I have not spoken a single word as an actor, nor have I had the urge to do so." So writes international mime theater artist & teacher, Stefan Niedzialkowski, in this inside look at the mental & physical ingredients of an art form that communicates beyond the word. Marcel Marceau writes in the foreword: "His words about mime...will be of interest to anyone who cares about mime, & they will be very important to young students. BEYOND THE WORD will guide those who are interested in...(the) creative process, as artist or as teacher." A must for mime artists, for dancers & actors who wish to delve more deeply into the art of movement. "The approach is subtle, nuanced & sensitive, as befits the poetic art of mime. The secrets & mysteries of mime are suggested rather than explained through the use of analogies & anecdotes. The personality of the artist delicately colors the presentation..."--Daniel Gerould, Professor at City University of New York. Available from Momentum Books, 6964 Crooks Rd., Ste. 1, Troy, MI 48098; 800/758-1870.

Book LOST and PROFOUND

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mark McKirdy
  • Publisher : Mark McKirdy
  • Release : 2015-03-03
  • ISBN : 1311122478
  • Pages : 168 pages

Download or read book LOST and PROFOUND written by Mark McKirdy and published by Mark McKirdy. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘LOST and PROFOUND: The Rejected Book Reviews by Famous People’ is a unique and hilarious collection of unpublished book reviews seemingly written by household names who have reached the top in film, television, journalism, science, music, sport, art, business, politics and literature. Included among the ‘reviewers’ are George W. Bush, David Letterman, Madonna, Gore Vidal, Shirley MacLaine, Arnold Palmer, Elton John, Gloria Steinem, David Suzuki, Walter Cronkite, Salvatore ‘Sammy the Bull’ Gravano, Jimmy Swaggart and Monica Lewinsky. All the books reviewed are real, and the astonishing diversity of interests of the celebrities demonstrates that shallow perception can never be disguised as deep thought, no matter how cleverly expressed. As revealed in the book’s ‘Introduction’, Mark McKirdy acquired this collection when he successfully bid for a small, dusty box at a Sotheby’s auction in 2013. Upon his return to Oxford University, where he was the anthropologist-in-residence, he opened the box and, like Howard Carter marveling at the treasures he’d just unearthed from Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922, the author was holding a golden collection of book reviews by many of the world’s most significant people. Each review had apparently been commissioned by the prestigious literary journal, ‘The London Review of Books’ and each, for reasons never revealed, received a soul-crushing rebuff by way of a large, red ‘Rejected’ stamp. As with all well written satire, ‘LOST and PROFOUND’ will give readers pause for thought, seconds for chuckling, minutes of laughing out loud and hours of fun, and if the celebrities mentioned in the book didn’t actually write the reviews cited, they probably wish they had.

Book Sporopollenin

    Book Details:
  • Author : J. Brooks
  • Publisher : Elsevier
  • Release : 2013-09-03
  • ISBN : 1483216624
  • Pages : 731 pages

Download or read book Sporopollenin written by J. Brooks and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-03 with total page 731 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sporopollenin presents the proceedings of a Symposium held at the Geology Department, Imperial College, London, on September 23-25, 1970. The book discusses the functional roles of spore and pollen grain walls, the sporopollenin concept, as well as spore wall patterning. The text also describes the role played by sporopollenin in the development of pollen in Pinus banksiana; the morphological and fluorescence microscopical investigation on sporopollenin formation at Pinus sylyestris and Gasteria verrucosa; and primuline-induced fluorescence of the first exine elements and ubisch bodies in Ipomoea and Lilium. The ultrastructural and chemical studies of pollen wall development in the Epacridaceae; the implications on the nature of sporopollenin based upon pollen development; and the production of sporopollenin by the Tapetom are also considered. The book further tackles the resistance and stratification of the exine; the preservation of sporopollenin membranes under natural conditions; and a paleobiological definition of sporopollenin. The text also encompasses the aspects of sporin on the aromatization of sporin and the hydrogen density of the sporin of carboniferous lycopsids; the chemistry of sporopollenin; and some chemical and geochemical studies on sporopollenin. The petrology and geochemistry of sporinite; the application of diagenesis of sporopollenin and other comparable organic substances to hydrocarbon research; and the thermal degradation of sporopollenin and the genesis of hydrocarbons are also looked into. Botanists and microbiologists will find the book invaluable.
