A comprehensive monograph of the work of Joe Zucker, one of the most innovative artists of the mid-twentieth century.This new monograph on the art of Joe Zucker is a career-spanning survey that deals with all the artist’s various bodies of work, from his grid paintings of the 1960s to his latest work, including the monumental 1000 Brushstrokes (2015– 2016). Zucker’s art is rooted in a conceptual framework where tools, materials, processes, procedures, content, and subject matter are all interrelated.Due to the frequent transformations in his art from one style to another, and thus his work has not been easily characterized or identified. Nevertheless, he has forged a powerful artistic persona as a process artist with a certain pop inflection, who not only grapples with formal and theoretical concerns but also explores themes of history, culture, and Americana. Working with materials ranging from cotton balls, sash cords, pegboards, and squeegees to acrylic and rhoplex, and exploring such themes as the grid, the history of cotton, ancient civilizations, an assortment of “dubious characters,” paintings that paint themselves, as well as meditations on the studio, Zucker merges materials, process, and content―abstract and otherwise―to produce compelling works of extraordinary inventiveness, irony, and passion. 270 color illustrations

Eating right for cancer. With low carbohydrates and many good fats and proteins. The new standard work on the ketogenic diet in cancers. Faced with the diagnosis of "cancer", many people are looking for ways in which they can actively contribute to positively influencing the course of their illness. One of the first questions here is usually: "Can I improve my diet?" And in fact, a fundamental insight in clinical everyday life prevails: Cancer patients visibly benefit from a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet. Because tumors operate a special metabolism with a high sugar consumption. The body of the patient, on the other hand, uses carbohydrates worse - he even develops insulin resistance. - Richtig essen gegen Krebs. Mit wenig Kohlenhydraten und vielen guten Fetten und Eiweißen. Das neue Standardwerk zur ketogenen Ernährung bei Krebserkrankungen. Mit der Diagnose "Krebs" konfrontiert, suchen viele Menschen nach Möglichkeiten, wie sie selber aktiv dazu beitragen können, den Verlauf ihrer Krankheit positiv zu beeinflussen. Eine der ersten Fragen ist hier meistens: "Kann ich an meiner Ernährung etwas verbessern?" Und tatsächlich setzt sich eine grundlegende Erkenntnis im klinischen Alltag durch: Krebspatienten profitieren sichtlich von einer fettreichen, kohlenhydratreduzierten Ernährung. Denn Tumoren betreiben einen besonderen Stoffwechsel mit einem hohen Zuckerverbrauch. Der Körper des Patienten verwertet Kohlenhydrate dagegen schlechter - er entwickelt sogar eine Insulinresistenz. Die gesunden Körperzellen brauchen nun Fett, um sich ausreichend zu ernähren. Fett, das mit einer angepassten Ernährung zur Verfügung gestellt wird. Die Autoren gehen in diesem umfassenden Ratgeber der entscheidenden Frage nach, inwieweit eine weitere Reduktion der Kohlenhydrate in der Nahrung dem Patienten einen zusätzlichen Nutzen bringen kann. Sie vermitteln das wissenschaftliche Fundament der ketogenen Ernährung bei Krebs und stellen die Umsetzung dieser Ernährungsform in der Praxis dar.

The final book in Mickey Zucker Reichert’s acclaimed, bestselling epic fantasy Renshai Trilogy—an intricate world of Norse mythology, slashing swordplay, and devastating sorcery.   Colbey’s duties in the world of mortals were seemingly done—the Renshai were safely established in a community of their own, and Sterrane was ruling peacefully in the kingdom of Bearn. Now Colbey must face the Seven Tasks of Wizardry and learn whether he is truly the new Western Wizard, keeper of neutrality.   But Colbey is about to discover that there is an Eighth Task far more dangerous not only to himself, but to the worlds of humans and gods alike. And even if he survives to take on that eighth challenge, there are those among the gods, Wizards, and mortalkind ready to make loyal allies into weapons to use against Colbey.   For with Ragnarok looming over all the worlds, both those sworn to law and those promised to chaos will unite to stop the Wizard-warrior by any means—though their very actions against Colbey may become the catalyst for mutual destruction.

Hay momentos en la vida en los que la única manera de salvarse a uno mismo es muriendo o matando. A finales del siglo XIX, durante la última etapa zarista, los Zucker, perseguidos por ser judíos, tienen que abandonar Rusia huyendo del horror y la sinrazón. A su llegada a la Tierra Prometida, Samuel Zucker adquiere las tierras de los Ziad, una familia árabe encabezada por Ahmed. Entre él y Samuel nace un fuerte vínculo, una sólida amistad que, por encima de las diferencias religiosas y políticas, se mantiene generación tras generación. Con las amenazas, la sed de venganza y muchas pasiones desatadas como telón de fondo, las vidas entrecruzadas de los Zucker y los Ziad conforman un mosaico de traiciones y sufrimientos, de amores posibles e imposibles, al tiempo que plasman la gran aventura de vivir y convivir en un territorio marcado por la intolerancia. Intensa y conmovedora crónica de dos sagas familiares, la nueva y esperadísima novela de Julia Navarro nos adentra en las vidas de personas con nombres y apellidos, que luchan por alcanzar sus sueños, y que son responsables de su propio destino. “Los personajes de esta novela viven conmigo, me han enseñado mucho, forman parte ya de mi historia personal.” —Julia  Navarro

Winner of the Strousse Award fro Best Group of Poems (2002)In Rachel Zucker's re-imagining of the Greek myth, Persephone is a daughter struggling to become a woman. Unlike the classical portrait of a maiden kidnapped by a tyrant, Zucker's Persephone chooses to travel to the Underworld and assume her role as Hades' queen. Caught between worlds―light and dark, innocence and power, a mother's protection and a lover's appeal―Persephone describes the strangeness of the Underworld and the problems of transformation and transgression. The arrangement of Zucker's poems reflects Persephone's travels between the Underworld and the Surface. Both spare and lyrical, they are written as entries in Persephone's diary and as letters between Persephone, Demeter, and Hades. The language―strange, urgent, direct―is pulled and changed as Persephone journeys from one world to another revealing the struggle of unmaking and remaking the self.

Literary Nonfiction. "MOTHERs is a howling storm of a book. In this desperately digressive essay, the poet Rachel Zucker narrates her complicated path to becoming and not becoming her mother, the storyteller Diane Wolkstein. Zucker turns her intelligent eye outward and inward, including everything she knows about mothers, stories, poems, and consequence itself. In mythic terms, the essay is about a poet who doesn't want to turn into a storyteller. But as in all myths of avoidance, Zucker must eventually tell a terrifyingly inevitable story."—Sarah Manguso
