Book Description
Numerous high-quality reproductions accompany this in-depth examination of Modigliani's career, from the penetrating psychological studies of his early portraits, through the more stylized images such as the graceful figures with the famous almond-shaped eyes and swan-like necks, to his mature depiction of nudes, which have become symbols of femininity.
Although Modigliani led the life of the turn-of-the-century bohemian in Paris, dying at the young age of 35, his restless life is scarcely reflected in his paintings. The author shows how his works are characterized by cool detachment and often archaic austerity. This fascinating study reveals how Modigliani drew his inspiration not so much from the avant-garde movements of the time, such as Cubism, Fauvism, and Futurism, as from the artists of the Renaissance and Rococo periods.
Customer Reviews:
Don't buy it for the visuals........2003-09-20
For those who are looking for a book emphasizing Modigliani's work, I have to disagree with one of the other reviewers, it does not satisfy that need.
Not a good choice if you are looking to gaze and enjoy a series of full-page reproductions.
One of the best.......2002-07-05
The is an excellent book. The author focuses on Modigilani's work, rather than his biography. The stylist development of his work (painting and sculpture) is covered from the earliest works in Italy to the most maturest works before his death. The discussion focuses on M's composition, characterization, and techniques. This is supported by beautiful reproductions - unbelievable for the price of this volume. At the beginning of the book, the author mentions, "Initially, Modigliani's portraits make a uniform and montonous impression. We feel, after examining only a few works, that we are all too familiar... Only closer scrutiny...clarifies Modigliani's stringent stylistic development." The book suceeds wonderfully in opening the readers eyes to the features of this development. I only wish that I had bought the hardbound edition.
The Best Introductory Book to Modigliani in Print!.......1998-05-13
This book is a fabulous introduction to the art of Amedeo Modigliani. It was printed in 1996, therefore most of what we know about Modigliani is included in it. The author has done a superb job of addressing the major issues of his portraits and nudes, and is helped by good reproductions. The author is astute in her assumptions about Modigliani's life and art. This is an overview of Modigliani's life art I read in just a few hours, well worth the price for the information that it gives swiftly and intelligently. Very highly recommended, especially for a first read.

Book Description
The nineteenth and early twentieth centuries were a period of tumultuous social change for the Batak of North Sumatra. That change was registered in their clothing and handwoven textiles. This book examines factors which inspired these people to wear Malay and European styles on a daily basis. While each region adopted the new apparel for different reasons, and at different times, everywhere the once commonplace hipcloths and shouldercloths now took on the task of representing traditional life.

Customer Reviews:
Graphic SF Reader.......2007-09-03
Grimjack gets involved in a whole lot of different things here, including some dodgy electioneering, some psychic investigation, and supporting a minor deity.
This is not to mention the time travel into western territory with a good looking ghost as his partner, and tangling yet again with his old partner Roscoe.

Book Description
Reed dissects topics both whimsical and important, from university courses for eliminating one's southern accent, to northerners moving south, to the permutations of barbecue, to race....The South is a funny place, he says, now more than ever.
Customer Reviews:
A Southern apologetic for the intellectual.......2007-05-20
In this collection of essays and articles, John Shelton Reed tackles the zeitgeist of the South. He goes about it with an academician's skill that enables enlightened humor and sound argument while avoiding cheesy, low-grade cliche.
Reed emphasizes the importance of cultural/regional distinction. He acknowledges that the South, like any other region, has its problems; however, when it comes to culture, no place else compares. In a country becoming more and more like the James McMurtry song "I'm Not From Here, I Just Live Here," this distinctiveness is more important than most people think; therefore, Reed takes great pride in it.
If you live in the South, Reed will articulate things you've always felt and will give you an appreciation for what makes your homeland unique. If you're from somewhere else, perhaps you'll gain a new understanding of what makes Southerners tick. But whoever you are, I think you'll like this book and I highly recommend it.
hilarious.......2003-05-16
Mr. Reed sure can write. I don't always agree with him; to turn around what he says about Steve Earle, Reed's politics are suspect. And more importantly how can he believe that Randy Travis is better than Earle and Dwight Yoakam? Still even when I didn't agree with the book I enjoyed reading it. The essays on country music and Ted Kennedy are worth the price of the book by themselves. Best of all it's wonderful to see someone defending my home region who isn't a confederate flag waving idiot.
Makes you proud(er) to be a Southerner.......2003-05-09
I've long been a fan of John Shelton Reed's "Letter from the Lower Right" in Chronicles magazine, and gave very high marks to "1,001 Things Everyone Should Know About the South," which he wrote with his wife. But for some reason, I had never made an effort to track down and read any of the collections of his essays. I see now what a mistake that was. I wish I'd read this back when it was new.
It was some consolation to find that the articles and essays here assembled were definitely worth the wait. Reed is a very funny writer, but he's not a "humorist" or humor writer in the sense of, say, Dave Barry or even (to move outside the region) P.J. O'Rourke. You'll definitely get a laugh out of many of these pieces, but you'll also find them deeply informative. Reed is, after all, a serious researcher and thinker, and the two indisputable facts that define his writing -- that he loves the South, and he *knows* the South -- feed off one another.
Granted, many of the essays here are more than a little dated (some date back to the Carter Administration), and I'd love to know how things have changed in the thirteen, fifteen, or almost twenty-five years since some of them were written. But that's no doubt just one more reason to track down Reed's more recent collections.
Southerners, including expatriates, will nod knowingly at much of what Reed says, and will get a kick out of seeing themselves depicted so accurately in print. I hope they'll also take to heart his commitment to preserving many of the things -- from culture to accent -- that make the South truly distinctive. Folks from other parts of the country will find that Reed has not only made that sometimes-puzzling region a little easier to understand, but has made the trip a remarkably pleasant one.
Southern wit and wisdom.......2001-08-20
This book cannot be recommended too highly to anyone with the slightest interest in the South. It is, in every sense, a delight to read and will easily withstand repeated readings.
This is the third of John Shelton Reed's books that I have read and its style sits somewhere between that of "1001 Things Everyone Should Know About the South" and "My Tears Spoiled My Aim". The book comprises a collection of dispatches culled from Reed's contributions to newspapers, journals and magazines between 1979-1990. Most of these are 1,000-1,500 words long. The book begins with observations on two of his favorite themes, Southern identity and the New South, before moving on to Southern culture, food, politics and religion. Reed is a favorably prejudiced but acute observer of Southern manners, quirks, oddities and behaviour.
The dispatches are written to entertain and don't disappoint. I found plenty at which to laugh out loud. However, this is not to say that Reed is not surreptitiously engaged in a secret mission to raise his readers' awareness of the character and virtues of things Southern. There's plenty enough here even to make a Yankee laugh - especially some of his more elliptical humor. I particularly liked his comment on Ted Kennedy: "For my part, I rather like the fellow. He's certainly the closest thing to a good old boy that Massachussetts will ever produce - which isn't to say that he ought to be president, merely that I think he'd make a pretty good drinking buddy as long as somebody else did the driving."
Reed is exceptionally good at capturing the spirit or the essence of something and making it seem familiar to you. I have never visited Bob Jones University but, in just over three pages, Reed made me feel I knew what kind of place it was. He does the same for a number of Southern characters and institutions.
Reed is a gifted cultural interpreter who appraches his topics with respect, affection and good humor. It's tempting to say that Reed is a popularizer but that belies his considerable writing talents. Whilst everything is written in an engaging style, Reed makes few concessions to his readership - he delights in his use of language and deploys an extensive vocabularly that would make some of my students reach for their dictionaries.
All in all this book is an unqualified delight. Go buy it now - you won't be disappointed.
J. S. Reed was my Favorite Professor........2001-07-26
When I took Sociology of the South under Dr. Reed at the University of North Carolina, he immediately won the respect of everyone who heard him speak, by virtue of the mix of humor and humble generosity with which he offered up quite a prodigious wealth of knowledge, and because of his graceful personal style. These qualities are evident in his writing.
Now that I live in gritty Gotham, and am faced daily with a culture amazingly alien to the one in which I was raised below the Mason-Dixon, I think every day of the issues he explored in his class (and in his books). He has done depthy and earnest sociological study of issues which plague the minds of Southerners and people who know them: Why Are Country Lyrics So Sad? Why Are Cheating Husbands More Likely To Get Shot Down South? What Exactly Is A 'Southerner,' and Why Won't They Shut Up About That Old War? (and) What, Exactly, Is The Big Deal With Kudzu? I highly recommend this book, as well as My Tears Spoiled My Aim.
Product Description
Back in the era of black-and-white horror and sci-fi movies, we didnt have special effects, or the money for em, says Peter Graves, one of the genres most popular stars. But in those days, an unlimited amount of money wouldnt have gotten us much better special effects, because they didnt exist. We had to go with the stories and try to make them as believable as possible, and flash the outlandish things by quickly, so the audience never got a good, in-focus look at them! Perhaps no films attracted more rabid fans and less critical acclaim than the genre movies of that era. The men and women who made the characters come to life are interviewed here, talking about their work, the behind-the-scenes action, and the impact the movies had on their careers. The interviewees are Gene Barry, Gary Clarke, Gary Conway, Merian C. Cooper, Robert Dix, Donnie Dunagan, Alex Gordon, Peter Graves, Gary Gray, Arch Hall, Jr., Stephen Kandel, Carolyn Kearney, Ken Kolb, Robert L. Lippert, Jr., Jan Merlin, Mary Mitchel, Elliott Reid, Stanley Rubin, Frankie Thomas and Burt Topper. Extensively illustrated.
Customer Reviews:
another 5 star gem.......2005-09-24
Tom Weaver is running out of people to interview but that doesn't stop him. He continues digging and digging and comes up with with more amazing interviews. The Donnie Dunnagan interview is worth the price of the book alone. Hopefully Mr. Weaver will interview Amy Carter and - especially - Patricia Breslin. And Homicidal deserves a chapter all of its own. How was this most convoluted film ever made and how did William Castle get novice "Jean Arless" to give the most frightening and upsetting feminine performance in film history? Perhaps Ms. Breslin would know.
ANOTHER WINNER FROM WEAVER!.......2005-07-26
When it comes to horror and sci-fi, there is no better writer than Tom Weaver, and his latest book "Earth Vs. the Sci-fi Filmmakers" is further proof. Similar to his "I was a Monster Movie Maker" Weaver this time presents 20 interviews with some of the men and women who worked on some of the great sci-fi films, primarily of the 50's and 60's. Actually Sci-fi is a bit of a misnomer since the interviews are conducted with people who have worked not only on sci-fi films, but also on horror and fantasy as well. The acknowledgements at the beginning of the book is like a who's who of these genres including Ted Bohus and Kevin Clement of Chiller Theatre, Jim Clatterbaugh of Monsters from the Vault, Buddy Barnett of Cult Movies, collector Bob Burns, and film historian Rudy Behlmer.
Weaver's knowledge of these films and the actors makes for interviews that are in-depth and informative, not the typical throwaway reviews you may get with some writers. Some of the actors you'll know, some you may not, but you're sure to know the films they helped to immortalize.
Gene Barry, who starred in the original "War of the Worlds" is the subject of the first interview and is actually probably the weakest of the group. You get the feeling that he didn't want to expound to much on that film and says quite candidly that he didn't care much for science fiction. Barry would go on to do numerous TV shows including "Bat Masterson", "Burke's Law" and "The Name of the Game"
Gary Conway is a great example of a guy whose name you might not know, but you know his role in "I was a Teenage Frankenstein" from the 1950's under that hideous mass of makeup. Conway talks about the ordeal of getting done up everyday and how hot and uncomfortable the mask/makeup was. He also discusses the lesser known sequel "How to Make a Monster" as well as his time working with Roger Corman on "The Saga of the Viking Women and Their Voyage to the Waters of the Great Sea Serpent". How's THAT for a title. Conway provides one of the stronger interviews in the book.
The interview with the late Merian C. Cooper wasn't conducted by Weaver, obviously. The interview was taken from an audio tape from 1964 provided by Bob Burns who attended a small gathering of friends that turned into an impromptu Q & A session with the legendary writer/director of "King Kong". Cooper discusses the various armatures and different style heads used for Kong in the movie as well as the animation process among many other topics. The most interesting tidbit is that Cooper had an associate sign his contract for the film while he was out of town and it left Cooper without a financial cut of the film.
Donnie Dunagan is one of the most interesting interviews in the book. Dunagan played the much-maligned role of Basil Rathbone's son Peter Von Frankenstein, in "Son of Frankenstein". For years fans have argued how Dunagan's performance was the worst thing about the film so it was interesting to get his take on the performance and to also realize that he was five years old at the time. Dunagan would also share his thoughts on Karloff, Rathbone, and Lionel Atwill, although curiously, Lugosi is not mentioned. Dunagan would go on to become a career U.S. Marine, achieving the rank of Major and having three tours of Viet Nam.
Peter Graves is known to most people as the star of "Mission Impossible" and as one of the hosts of A&E's Biography. But before that, Graves starred in a number of great Sci-Fi "B" movies including "It Conquered the World", "Red Planet Mars', and "Killers from Space".
Other interviews include Arch Hall Jr. who starred in the cult films "Eegah!" and "The Sadist"; writer ken Kolb who wrote the fantasy epic "The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad"; Mary Mitchel who starred in such "B" movie gems as "Panic in Year Zero", "Spider Baby", and "Dementia 13"; and Frankie Thomas who played Space Cadet Tom Corbett in one of TV's very first outer space shows from 1950 - 1955.
What I love about Weaver is that he never minimizes the contributions of his interview subjects. Most of these people have not been active in film or TV for decades but Weaver never handles them as if they were a novelty. He asks the right questions and the subjects seem generally surprised and delighted at his familiarity with their work. Throughout the book vintage photos from the films are included as well as many current photos of the actors today. This is a "B" movie fan's dream!
Another great title from McFarland Publications who puts out so many fantastic books on film and TV. Check them out!

Glenn Baker traces the Monkees' meteoric rise to fame, the adulation and hostility they faced at the top of pop's ladder, and their sudden decline. Illustrated with over 200 photographs, including Monkees ephemera and film stills, this guide offers a complete discography and coverage of the Monkees' 30th anniversary.
Customer Reviews:
Entertaining but not completely accurate.......2002-07-30
Kudos to Baker for writing a book about The Monkees, the most misunderstood group of rock history. They still tour and are still popular (and still damned good). But, aside from some decent photos and a fairly interesting pace, there's a ton of misrepresentations here, old rumours that noone bothered to check up on and just plain old errors. In dates, personal lives, etc.--just about every element is distorted at least somewhat. I'm not saying intentionally, but still... Which while it doesn't really stop you from reading, it gets pretty annoying. Come to think of it, of all the books published about The Monkees, there is no one single definitive tome available and there never has been. Maybe one day a serious literary endeavour will emerge to tell the whole story accurately, but then The Monkees story is not yet over.
Monkee Mania is right....................2002-06-18
This is a very fascinating book to have around and read. It's very interesting and again it's very informative. It has everything you want to know about all four monkees. It has nice interesting pictures as well. And also a very collectble book.
The Monkees.......2002-04-08
This book told the story of how the Monkees started out of being a fake band and then turning into one of the most popular bands in the 60's. It's a good book to read if making of bands is your thing.
THIS IS A GOOD BOOK.......2002-02-23
I BOUGHT THIS BOOK WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT, WITH A DIFFERENT COVER TO IT, ITS VERY GOOD, I DIDN'T GET THE NEW ONE, SINCE I'VE YET TO COMPARE IT TO THE OLD ONE THAT I PUT AWAY, BUT ITS THE SAME AUTHOR, SO I'M PRETTY SURE THIS BOOK IS AS GREAT AS THE OLD ONE, PICS AND ALL.
IS THIS THE SAME BOOK?
I give it an "eh".......2001-12-17
First of all, the book had some really great pictures. That's the good thing about this book. The ONLY good thing. The bad thing is that most of the information is wrong, wrong, wrong! There are many errors in this book, and it'll get Monkees fans really really confused (it happened to me!) Now, I just like to look at the pictures in the book. Steer clear, don't read!

Wonderful solo adventure from the UK.......2000-05-02
Here's a hard to find one-on-one adventure (1 veteran PC vs. the DM) that's near and dear to my heart. It's by UK adventure guru Jim Bambra; with the dramatic, dark writing and the classically bizarre Euro-fantasy illustrations, it reminds me strongly of the best of the Fighting Fantasy books, or even better, Steve Jackson's Sorcery. (Hack, cough, `scuse me, showing my age for a minute there...) Do any of your heroes have a true family history? A legacy? In this story, as a living legend among the elves, you return home to find your lovely forest home of Dorneryll in flames. So begins Chapter 1, and did I mention you'll be fighting an angry red dragon alone? A forgotten classic.

Successful Presentations.......2002-03-30
This book is the best and gave me valuable tips to make effective presentation. Knowing how to communicate effectively, I can improve my teaching style. When I translate text pages into a brief presentation visual, my creativity enhance.
Reccomend highly.......2002-03-04
If you have to do presentations, chances are you don't have much time to wade through literature about how. Many books exist on the subject; this has got to be one of the best - covers basically all you need to know about How and Why rather than What. Zelazny helps the reader to find his/her own way, which is ultimately better than being spoon fed as in the disappointingly dry "McGraw-Hill One Day Workshop on Presentation Skills"
Buy this book if you rely on giving presentations for your job. Even if you are facing a one-off crisis presentation, this book can be read fast enough to offer concrete help immediately.
Oh - it's fun an humorous too. But a bit expensive.
Useful, but just for beginners.......2001-08-23
I am a strategic consultant and I founded the book too simple. It is highly recomended (together with "Say it with charts") if you are brand new in a consultancy firm or, because of your job, you occasionally have to do professional presentations and you want to acquire a basic methodology. It is a good book for starters, but presentations is kind of an art and it is a skill difficult to get.
Real help for you, the presenter.......2000-01-25
Say It With Presentations steps beyond the "How to give a speech" story of its peers. Gene shows us what works, why it works, and, most importantly, how we can all make it work. I have not seen a better book for giving business presentations than this and don't expect to find one.
The secret is simplicity.
Following his own advice, Gene makes the book simple and has simple examples and arguments for ideas that are soooooo tempting to complicate.
This is not a book to read. It is a manual to review, a guide to follow, a resource for self help, and a reminder of the rights of the audience.
Most importantly, it is fun to refer back to constantly both before and after presentations.
Common-sense guidelines to cut through the presentation fog.......2000-01-15
Gene Zelazny has once again proved that by following a few common-sensical guidelines, no one needs to create a business presentation that bores their audience. In an age where too many business communicators rely on Powerpoint to fog their ideas and confuse their audience, Zelazny's advice is in great need. Perhaps if all of Sun Microsystem's employees were required to read this, there'd be no need to ban Powerpoint.
In this follow-up to the successful "Say It With Charts", Zelazny continues to ask the reader to focus on the needs of the audience, to use the presentation to create a dialogue with the listener, and to use the presentation to support the message. He provides much needed guide to use of new media and proves, once again, that in the communication of complex ideas, less is more.
Buy several copies! Keep one for yourself and have one handy for the next business presentation that puts you to sleep. That presenter will thank you.
