Long Island Landscapes and the Women Who Designed Them

Book Description

An account of eminent women landscape architects who flourished in the golden age of country estates.

This beautiful book covers in depth the work of six designers—Beatrix Farrand, Martha Hutcheson, Marian Coffin, Ellen Shipman, Ruth Dean, and Annette Hoyt Flanders—and looks at a dozen other less-well-known women. It focuses on the Long Island projects that constituted a large part of their work and brings these pioneering women to life as people and as professionals. 187 duotones, 20 color illustrations.

Book Description

Literacy is broadly understood to refer to the ability to read and write. But the term is heavily value-laden and is often used to elevate print at the expense of other forms of communication. In PhotoGraphic Encounters, the authors challenge this reductive notion of literacy and propose instead an integrated span of literacies: reaching across disciplinary boundaries to discover a text that draws upon both the visual and the verbal. PhotoGraphic Encounters discusses Canadian writers like Margaret Atwood, George Bowering, Robert Kroetsch, and Daphne Marlatt, and Canadian artists like Fred Douglas, Ernie Kroeger, Brenda Pelkey, and Michael Snow, then looks at the cross-fertilization of visual and verbal processes in their works. The authors present a new narrative practice, one that fully engages lived experience. The vernacular, they argue, is vital to our participation as readers and viewers of high art. Making the connection between the vernacular and high culture creates an enabling moment in artistic production and reception and in teaching, learning, and talking about art and literature. PhotoGraphic Encounters offers a compelling perspective on questions of literacy in a postmodern culture. Artists, writers, scholars, and critics alike will want this volume in their libraries. Includes more than 120 B&W photographs, 20 colour plates, index, bibliography.

For "Model Rules" read "Lawyer's Bible".......2000-03-26

The ABA's Model Rules of Professional Conduct is an essential guide to what a lawyer should and shouldn't be doing. It condenses into a little over 150 pages all the key concepts that should be uppermost in the minds of any practising attorney.

Intended as a guide for practitioners - with guidance on fees to charge, conflicts of interest, how to behave when acting as Counselor or Advocate and Bar disciplinary and standards matters - this book also make a handy pocket reference for non-lawyers so that you know what to accept and what not to put up with.

Book Description

The Annotated Model Rules of Professional Conduct is ABA's definitive resource for information about lawyer ethics. Each chapter includes a Rule and its Comment, a detailed discussion of the Rule's meaning, application and interpretation, with citations to more than 4,000 cases and ethics opinions, hundreds of law review articles, and the relevant sections of the Restatement (Third) of the Law Governing Lawyers. The information is carefully organized under numerous subheadings, making it easy to find specific information.

Book Description

This inspiring book offers penetrating insights - each in less than a page - on situations in life and leadership. Each page is accompanied by stunning black and white photographs from nature by Jane English. In a tour de force of compression, Scher shows us how our actions in our work lives are intimately connected with a much larger world, and how natural laws apply to such seemingly mundane activities as meetings and the daily decisions each of us is called to make. The remarkable choice of pictures that go with the words (the page designs) produce powerful impressions.

Customer Reviews:

For people who cherish "the soul of wit".......2003-06-24

I liked this likeable book, so slyly instructive, words sparse, photos apt, and I recommend it to all my friends and enemies, especially the people who cherish "the soul of wit...brevity." I pick up this sikly opus anywhere, any time, for its astonishing relevance on any given page. For me it is an intellectual/aesthetic health snack. I love the symbiosis of the exquisite photography and text.

Insights into leadership that delight and intrigue.......2003-05-27

Bob Scher crackles the page with lightning flashes of discovery about how the world works and how best to live within it and then allows his observations to grow naturally like a path in the forest. The result is a tantalizing series of poetic insights on creating opportunities within this pattern of relationships and movements.

Respectful of his debt to higher forces and with a healthy sense of self-inquiry, Scher places leadership-or the pursuit of one's aims-within a natural world of dynamic forces and relationships. The sensitive photographs paired with each insight support this vision. The pictures and words work marvelously together, each in turn revealing aspects of the other.

This is a special book to give or to ponder.

A rare combination of soft poetry and business issues.......2003-05-12

This book converges between poetry, business and visual arts. It is the perfect combination. The pictures set the mood for the words and the words come alive in the pictures.

Bob Scher has an incredible ability to put the most complex and abstract leadership issues in soft and gentle poems.

A must keep item for executives. I leave the book in my desk drawer and look at it at least 2-3 times a day. Reading it gives me a lift of inspiration and helps me to conceptualize some of my daily leadership struggles.
