Everything Explained That Is Explainable

Everything Explained That Is Explainable PDF Author: Denis Boyles
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307389782
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 466

Book Description
Everything Explained That Is Explainable is the audacious, utterly improbable story of the publication of the Eleventh Edition of the legendary Encyclopædia Britannica. It is the tale of a young American entrepreneur who rescued a dying publication with the help of a floundering newspaper, and in so doing produced a series of books that forever changed the face of publishing. Thanks to the efforts of 1,500 contributors, among them a young staff of university graduates as well as some of the most distinguished names of the day, the Eleventh Edition combined scholarship and readability in a way no previous encyclopedia had (or ever has again). Denis Boyles’s work of cultural history pulls back the curtain on the 44-million-word testament to the age of reason that has profoundly shaped the way we see the world.

@earth PDF Author: Peter Kennard
Publisher: Tate
ISBN: 9781854379849
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 192

Book Description
This book contains no words: instead it tells its story in the universal language of photomontage, long the favoured medium of radical artists. The author is one such, whose work has consistently questioned power structures and injustice, from his anti-nuclear works of the 1980s to his powerful works in response to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. This photo-essay in seven chapters, combining new works, made together with Tarek Salhany, with iconic images from throughout the author's 40-year career. It makes a powerful statement about the impending eco-crisis, the arms race and the injustices of the power structures dominating today's world.
