Book Description

Reviews the scientific methods used to examine artifacts and art objects in order to accurately assess their condition and prescribe care, exhibition and storage. The volume discusses the aging of natural and synthetic polymers such as wool, cotton, silk, paper, wood and polymers used in sculptures, photographs, film and other media. Important analytical methods such as size exclusion, chromatography, viscometry, and gel electrophoresis, are described in assessing damage in silk textiles. Microchemical manipulation, light microscopy and FTIR spectroscopy techniques are described in the analysis of historic cotton fibers, including those from a marine environment. This text also introduces laser surface profilometry as a novel technique for the examination of polymer surfaces. Also included is a comparison of natural and artificial aging effects of cellulose acetate artifacts as followed by FTIR spectroscopy and ion chromatography, and the applications of light microscopy and FTIR spectroscopy to distinguish between oil and acrylic painting media. All the information provided can be taken straight to the workplace and will be and extremely useful book for those working in the preservation of historic objects.

Alan Moore's least satisfying extended work.......2005-12-18

In 1995 Alan Moore took over as writer for the ongoing comics title WildC.A.T.S. with issue 21 and stayed with it for over a dozen issues. Those issues were collected in the trade paperbacks Homecoming and Gang War.

For those interested in Alan Moore who wouldn't otherwise be inclined to read a title like WildC.A.T.S. there's not much here to recommend. Story is minimal, and there is little development of substance over the course of Moore's contribution. It's a study in superhero soap opera. The reader is subject to a steady sampling of team member infighting, romances, grudges, and bickering.

Several other problems present themselves:

1. For Moore fans who are unfamiliar with WildC.A.T.S. there's very little effort expended on filling in readers with any backstory.

2. Moore takes over an ongoing title which has concepts that were "inspired" by Chris Claremont's original X-Men run, which ironically were "inspired" by Moore's early contributions to Captain Britain and Warrior magazine.

3. The artists assigned to this title change nearly every issue, making the look inconsistent. Some of these artists have an underdeveloped sense of page layout, making the reading experience confusing at times. Moore is known to tailor his scripts to the strengths and weaknesses of his collaborators. In this case, that was impossible.

An Alan Moore quote on the topic of his work here: "I was trying to work out what the audience wanted, which is a terrible mistake and I don't know what I was thinking."

Do not leave superheroes unattended with this man.......2005-10-18

After reading this book as well as the rest of Moore's stint on WildC.A.T.S. I now fully understand why DC wouldn't let him have the Charlton heroes. For those that don't know, DC bought the Charlton comics roster (Captain Atom, The Question, Blue Beetle, etc). When they wouldn't let him use them they became Dr Manhattan, Rorsach, and Nite Owl. When you see how Moore used them, I understand DC's trepidation if not outright fear. It's like loaning your favorite shirt to a linebacker. You know when you get it back it's going to be stretched way out of shape and you'll never be able to wear it again without looking kinda silly. That's what he does to not just characters but the entire premise of comics he's on: Marvelman (Miracleman), Swampthing, Glory & Supreme. It's great for us as readers, if the plot of a story is the paper then he not only writes on both sides of the paper but in anagrams, ambigrams, in the margins, then uses it to make origami. But comic companies beware: You'll never find a tailor to take-in your concepts to get them to fit again.

"But that was back on Khera.".......2005-02-09

Before asking Alan Moore to write your comic book, make sure you are not at all attached to the premise or any of the characters. The WildC.A.T.s started off a mostly alien super-team stranded far from their homeworld with a very simple mission: fight the Daemonites. In his first few issues, Moore splits the group in half, sends part of the team home to Khera, introduces some very strange new characters, and reveals that the war they've been fighting has been over for centuries. Oops.

Stripped of their motivation, the characters end up having to face down a more insidious threat on Khera, and the double-blinds and manipulations of fellow superheroes on earth. The quantum leap from cookie-cutter fistfights to hard, character-driven sci-fi is a bit of a jolt, but it's a welcome one, and Moore uses it to serve the characters as they find new ways to work and fight together. The central question of the series ceases to be, "How do we win this war?" and becomes, "What do we do now that the war is over?"

Travis Charest does the bulk of the pencils on this storyline, and they're terrific.

Brings depth to standard costumed-hero books.......2004-12-30

If you're like me, standard superhero comics where characters just beat up on each other are pretty boring. So what happens when one of the greatest comics writers takes on mindless violence? Sheer brilliance. Moore brings much-needed depth to the characters which up until this point had just been two-dimensional cardboard cutouts. He adds social commentary, ingenious plot twists, and layers of meaning.

No, it's not as great as Watchmen, or From Hell, or any title where he created the characters/world, but working within the confines of what he's been given, Moore creates a superhero story that deviates from the norm and is well worth reading.

Good Intergalactic Fun!.......2003-01-29

This book (or these books, as this is a collected edition) are great stuff - Alan Moore crafts a wickedly poignant tale around the return of the original C.A.T.s from their homeworld of Khera. While they originally went to Khera thinking it a utopia of paradise, they leave when events turn bitter. Arriving home on Earth, they find themselves right in the middle of the crime war the new WildC.A.T.S. have started. The conclusion is classic Moore, and the art (a mix of Travis Charest and Kevin Maguire) is top notch, Charest's in paticular. If you are a fan of Alan Moore, WildC.A.T.s, or just good old fashion intergalactic superhero action, this book's for you.

Book Description

Interpreting the Labour Party consists of twelve essays on the principal thinkers and schools of thought concerned with the political and historical development of the Labour Party and Labour movement. The essays are written by contributors who have devoted many years to the study of the Labour Party, the trade union movement and the various ideologies associated with them. The book begins with an in-depth analysis of how to study the Labour Party, and goes on to examine key periods in the development of the ideologies to which the party has subscribed. Each chapter situates its subject matter in the context of a broader intellectual legacy, including the works of Sidney and Beatrice Webb, Theodore Rothstein, Stuart Hall and Samuel Beer, among others.

Book Description

Many of Australia’s first Fabians are known as legislators, priests, jurists, men and women of letters, diplomats, feminists and educators, yet few are recognised as Fabians. Until this book, little attention has been given to Australian Fabian thinkers, activists and organisations, and their long-term influence on Australian political and intellectual life. This book recreates the lives of the first Fabians in Australia, their political ideas and strategies, and presents their visions for society in a lively and entertaining way. It also explores the similarities between the Fabian Society’s development in Britain and Australia. The book will fill a longstanding gap in Australian intellectual history and the history of early socialist movements in Australia.
