Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this piercing work distills three thousand years of the history of power in to forty-eight well explicated laws. As attention-grabbing in its design as it is in its content, this bold volume outlines the laws of power in their unvarnished essence, synthesizing the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun-tzu, Carl von Clausewitz, and other great thinkers. Some laws teach the need for prudence ("Law 1: Never Outshine the Master"), the virtue of stealth ("Law 3: Conceal Your Intentions"), and many demand the total absence of mercy ("Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally"), but like it or not, all have applications in real life. Illustrated through the tactics of Queen Elizabeth I, Henry Kissinger, P. T. Barnum, and other famous figures who have wielded-or been victimized by-power, these laws will fascinate any reader interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control.

Von einem "Bildermagazin der Zeit" war in den Vorankundigungen der legendaren Reihe der "Bauhausbucher" der 1920er Jahre immer wieder die Rede. Laszlo Moholy-Nagy schwebte eine kritische Bestandsaufnahme der zeitgenossischen Zeitschriftenproduktion vor. Der Typograf Joost Schmidt sollte darin Vorschlage fur eine bessere, "richtige" Illustrierte unterbreiten. Die Idee wurde aber nie realisiert, und so nahert sich die vorliegende Publikation in Form einer Konstruktion der Frage, wie dieses geplante "Bauhausbuch" argumentiert haben konnte. Basierend auf Moholy-Nagys Uberlegungen zur neuen Typografie und insbesondere auf seinem bekannten Aufsatz zu den "Richtlinien fur eine synthetische Zeitschrift" (1925) wird das unvollendete Vorhaben vor dem Hintergrund des Iconic Turn jener Epoche diskutiert und an zahl- reichen Bildbeispielen verdeutlicht. - Die Erfurter Ausstellung wird originale "Bildermagazine" zeigen, wie sie in jenen Tagen an den Kiosken auslagen - populare Heft- illustrierte und aufwandige Lifestyle-Blatter ebenso wie wichtige deutschsprachige und internationale Beispiele der Avantgarde- und Publikumspresse.

Now in its second edition, I Swear I Use No Art at All surveys the career and sensibility of graphic designer Joost Grootens, charting the first 100 books designed by Grootens over the past ten years. In the first section, “10 Years,” Grootens uses timelines, lists and graphs to map the course of his career as a designer and the people he worked with. In “100 Books,” the designer dissects his book designs, detailing the grids, formats, paper stocks, colors and typefaces, but also charting the books’ structure and composition. The chapter “18,788 pages” shows at actual size a selection of spreads from books designed by Grootens, including his internationally acclaimed atlases. In the eponymous accompanying essay, Grootens gives a personal account of making books and the ideas behind his designs. This edition includes “Book 101,” which describes the design and production of the first edition

Handbook on brick typology with many drawings and photos on recent examples of brick architecture in the Netherlands since 1990 and texts by specialists. Graphic Design by Joost Grootens.

By appropriating and subverting Tintin creator Hergé’s classic “clear line” style, Joost Swarte revitalized European alternative comics in the 1970s with a series of satirical, musically elegant, supremely beautifully drawn short stories — often featuring his innocent, magnificently-quiffed Jopo de Pojo, or his orotund scientist character, Anton Makassar. Under Swarte’s own exacting supervision, Is That All There Is? will collect virtually all of his alternative comics work from 1972 to date, including the Raw magazine stories that brought him fame among American comics aficionados in the 1980s. Especially great pains will be taken to match Swarte’s superb coloring, which includes stories executed in watercolor, comics printed in retro duotones, fiendishly clever use of Zip-a-Tone screens, and much more. (There’s even a story about how to color comics art using those screens, with Makassar as the teacher.) Other noteworthy stories include Swarte’s take on an episode from Hergé’s early days, a Fats Domino story, a tribute to the legendary “Upside-Downs” strip, and a story titled simply “Modern Art.”

Originally part of Rancho San Miguel, the West of Twin Peaks district was among the last to be developed in San Francisco. Behrend Joost, using the fortune he made to start dredging the Panama Canal, built a railway in 1891 to bring people out to his “cr¨me de la cr¨me” subdivision next to the forest planted by Comstock Lode millionaire Adolph Sutro. After the streetcar tunnel was bored through Twin Peaks in 1918, A. S. Baldwin planned neighborhoods on Sutro’s estate around Mount Davidson. With noted architects and engineers, Baldwin created “residential parks” with well-built Craftsman, art deco, English, and Spanish homes on curvilinear landscaped boulevards. These “suburbs in the city”―among them, Sunnyside, Balboa Terrace, Ingleside Terraces, Westwood Park, Westwood Highlands, Monterey Heights, Mount Davidson Manor, Sherwood Forest, and Miraloma Park―became home to thousands and a unique part of the San Francisco tapestry.
