My weapons would be my youth and impertinence. . . "" that they were for the 17-year-old girl who spent six years following the takeover of her city, Lvov, Poland, not only fighting back but talking back with remarkable fearlessness. As one of her many captors said, ""So goddamned stubborn and tough."" Judith also contributed quick successes to the partisan underground in Poland for two years. When later imprisoned as a political enemy (she was never discovered to be a Jew), she survived the SS inquisitions with baffling alibis and preposterous stories of different identities and missions. Eventually she could not escape the inevitable deportation to Auschwitz (her parents died in some concentration camp). Before long however she escaped, played a part as a machine gunner in the liberation of Vienna, and after Germany's defeat, worked as a military interpreter. A new cause was found when she crossed to Palestine and joined the terrorists in the Irgun, serving both as an artillery and an intelligence officer. Golda Meir, in her preface to the book, calls her memoirs ""a history of her people, from the terrible prelude to national revival in Israel."" It is hard to think of a comparable story (although it is written with no particular style) in terms of insuperable spirit.

Book by Strick, Candace Eisner

Prominent art historians Philip Conisbee, Sarah Faunce, Jeremy Strick, Peter Galassi, and Vincent Pomarede discuss the cultural, theoretical, and art historical background of this school of outdoor painting. They examine the early history of open-air painting, its theory and practice, the sites of Rome and southern Italy that were painted, and the delicate balance that existed among realism, memory and imagination. A rich selection of representative paintings is discussed and reproduced.The book is the catalogue for an exhibition at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Saint Louis Art Museum.

How, asks James E. Strick, could spontaneous generation--the idea that living things can suddenly arise from nonliving materials--come to take root for a time (even a brief one) in so thoroughly unsuitable a field as British natural theology? No less an authority than Aristotle claimed that cases of spontaneous generation were to be observed in nature, and the idea held sway for centuries. Beginning around the time of the Scientific Revolution, however, the doctrine was increasingly challenged; attempts to prove or disprove it led to important breakthroughs in experimental design and laboratory techniques, most notably sterilization methods, that became the cornerstones of modern microbiology and sped the ascendancy of the germ theory of disease.The Victorian debates, Strick shows, were entwined with the public controversy over Darwin's theory of evolution. While other histories of the debates between 1860 and 1880 have focused largely on the experiments of John Tyndall, Henry Charlton Bastian, and others, Sparks of Life emphasizes previously understudied changes in the theories that underlay the debates. Strick argues that the disputes cannot be understood without full knowledge of the factional infighting among Darwinians themselves, as they struggled to create a socially and scientifically viable form of "Darwinian" science. He shows that even the terms of the debate, such as "biogenesis," usually but incorrectly attributed to Huxley, were intensely contested.
