Paperback. Condizione: Good. James K. Baxter (1926-72) was, as he once described Louis MacNeice, 'the most human of poets': a flawed, passionate, complex, haunted man, a 'lively sinner' who revealed himself fully and unapologetically in his poems. As editor John Weir has written in his introduction, 'from his various quarrels with God, self, society and death emerged a body of work which reveals him to be not merely the most accessible and complete poet to have lived in New Zealand, but also one of the great English-language poets of the twentieth century. ' John Weir's definitive selection of James K. Baxter's best poems has been made from the more than three thousand poems that comprise his literary legacy. 332 pages. …

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. Third Printing (stated). xi, [1], 193, [3] pages. Includes Acknowledgments, Preface by Lee A. DuBridge, President of the California Institute of Technology, Notes, Tables, Charts, Bibliography, and Index. There is some wear, rippling, discoloration, and small chips to dust jacket edges. This book is a summary of some thirty conferences that were held with individual company groups, each conference confined to the top executives of the corporation. Their value and interest exceeded all expectations, and led to an insistent demand that the material be made publicly available. The authors hope that this publication will stimulate further discussions of matters pertaining to resources, important as they are to the future of our nation and the world. They also trust that this publication will serve as evidence that members of university and industrial staffs can profitably cooperate in examining many types of problems of importance to human welfare. Among the topics addressed are: Raw Materials, Food Production, Agricultural Change, Forecasting, Technical Manpower, Industrialization, Energy Resources, and Technical Training. Harrison Scott Brown (September 26, 1917 - December 8, 1986) was an American nuclear chemist and geochemist. He was a political activist, who lectured and wrote on the issues of arms limitation, natural resources and world hunger. During World War II, Brown worked at the Manhattan Project's Metallurgical Laboratory and Clinton Engineer Works, where he worked on ways to separate plutonium from uranium. The techniques he helped develop were used at the Hanford Site to produce the plutonium used in the Fat Man bomb dropped on Nagasaki. After the war he lectured on the dangers of nuclear weapons. After the war, he worked at the University of Chicago, where he pioneered nuclear geochemistry. Between 1951 and 1977, he worked at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) where he contributed to advancements in telescopic instrumentation, jet propulsion, and infrared astronomy. In the early 1970s, he began working more directly on the resource/environment issues that he had been developing in his books. In 1977, he became director of the newly created Resource Systems Institute of the East-West Center in Hawaii where he turned full time to work on understanding and influencing the interactions of energy, mineral, and food systems in the Asia-Pacific Region, themes he had developed in his books since the 1950s. James Frederick Bonner (September 1, 1910 - September 13, 1996) was an American molecular biologist, a member of the National Academy of Sciences, notable for discoveries in plant biochemistry. Bonner invented a better way to collect natural rubber from trees. As result of his invention Malaysia nearly doubled its production of natural rubber. Bonner was instrumental in the invention of a method of mechanical harvesting of oranges. One of his most notable discoveries was finding how histones control gene activity. Bonner was professor and professor emeritus of biology at the California Institute of Technology. John Weir became "the" psychology department at Caltec after receiving his Ph.D. in Psychology at UCLA. During his tenure there he began to experiment with T-group training, business consulting and group development work with National Training Labs in Bethel, Maine. John was curious about what made people behave the way they did. He became a leader in the field of the human potential movement from the 1950's to the 1970's and was greatly influenced by the work of Sigmund Freud, Carl Rogers, Wilhelm Reich and Abraham Maslow, among others. …

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. [6], 311, [3] pages. Autographed copy sticker on front of dust jacket. Signed by the author on the title page. The dust jacket is in a plastic sleeve. Douglas Coupland[a] OC OBC RCA (born 30 December 1961) is a Canadian novelist, designer, and visual artist. His first novel, the 1991 international bestseller Generation X: Tales for an Accelerated Culture, popularized the terms Generation X and McJob. He has published 13 novels, two collections of short stories, seven non-fiction books, and a number of dramatic works and screenplays for film and television. He is a columnist for the Financial Times, as well as a frequent contributor to The New York Times, and Vice. His art exhibits include Everywhere Is Anywhere Is Anything Is Everything, which was exhibited at the Vancouver Art Gallery, and the Royal Ontario Museum and the Museum of Contemporary Canadian Art, now the Museum of Contemporary Art Toronto Canada, and Bit Rot at Rotterdam's Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, as well as the Villa Stuck. Coupland is an Officer of the Order of Canada, and a member of the Order of British Columbia. He published his thirteenth novel Worst. Person. Ever. in 2012. He also released an updated version of City of Glass and the biography Extraordinary Canadians: Marshall McLuhan. He was the presenter of the 2010 Massey Lectures, with a companion novel to the lectures published by House of Anansi Press: Player One What Is to Become of Us: A Novel in Five Hours. From the bestselling author of Generation X and Microserfs, a smart, funny, fast-paced mystery with a heartfelt American romance at its core. Susan is a former child-beauty-pageant contender. John is a hard-living movie producer. She walks away from a plane crash without so much as a scratch. He comes away from a near-death experience with a unique, vivid plan. Susan refuses to spend one more day peddling herself for cheesy TV sitcom parts and takes advantage of a very weird situation to disappear. John turns his back on a hedonistic life making blockbuster action flicks. Shedding their self-made identities, each sets out on an uncharted course across the Gap-clogged, strip-mall landscape of California, searching for the thing--Love--that neither has ever really known, but that they now think they just might, actually, desperately want. Assisting Susan and John are a blackmailing pageant mom, a pair of suburban eggheads, a rust-belt refugee, and a salad bar of other twentieth-century Americans who all share the dream of one day taking center stage. In Miss Wyoming, Douglas Coupland has combined the literary and the popular in a sparkling and witty caper that quietly resonates into the eternal. Derived from a Kirkus review: Coupland's fifth novel matures the generation he christened via a lonely pair of thirtyish Hollywood burnouts in search of meaning. Devotees will recognize the characteristic blend of hip cultural references, ambient humor, and an love tale involving dead-enders living in hope of hope. The romance is a fragmented affair that resolves itself in this concluding phrase: Whatever came to them next would mercifully erase the creatures theyd already become as they crawled along the plastic radiant way. What leads up to that F. Scott Fitzgerald envoi is the story of John Johnson, a maker of mega-selling trash flicks for teens, who falls ill, has a vision, and leaves Hollywood behind for the joys of dumpster diving in the Southwest; and Susan Colgate, a veteran of kiddie beauty pageants whose generous half-hour of sitcom fame has ended, and whose airliner takes a nosedive into a field in the Midwest, leaving her miraculously unharmed. The two meet in a restaurant, take a walk down Sunset in the afternoon, and are mutually enchanted. Despite their efforts to meet again, flashbacks, flashforwards, and sitcom misfortunes intervene. Susie's mom Marilyn, broke, deprived of an airline settlement, and abandoned by her resentful daughter, kidnaps Susie's infant Eugenea. David John Weir (Author photograph) and Barnarby H (illustratore). …

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: Slip-cased. 1st Edition. All four volumes are like new. The slipcase has very minor light shelf wear. John Weir's four‑volume edition brings together the full range of James K. Baxter's prose, revealing the breadth of his thinking beyond the poetry for which he is best known. The set traces Baxter's development from precocious young critic to public intellectual, social activist, and spiritual writer. His essays explore literature, politics, Catholicism, Māori-Pākehā relations, communal living, and the responsibilities of the artist, while his journalism and public statements show the sharp, restless mind that made him both admired and controversial. Weir's introductions and notes provide context for each period of Baxter's life, clarifying the circumstances behind key pieces and drawing together material long scattered across newspapers, magazines, pamphlets, and archives. The result is an authoritative, comprehensive portrait of Baxter as a thinker and commentator, and an essential resource for understanding mid‑twentieth‑century New Zealand cultural life.…
