Use caution when ordering any plans from Frank Betz. The roof designs will leak over time! Once you order the plans and can see this, Frank Betz will not refund your money. They do not offer study plans (wonder why). They are all advertising and hype!

Book Description

When Marcus Whiffen's classic introduction to American architectural styles was published in 1969, Reyner Banham called it "one of the most enjoyable general works on American architecture that has ever appeared."

This new edition, containing descriptions, histories, and illustrations of more than forty architectural styles, has been revised and updated to include two new entries on late modernism and on post-modernism and a description of "streamline moderne," now recognized as an independent style. The number of illustrations has been increased to 200.

Marcus Whiffen is Professor Emeritus in the School of Architecture at Arizona State University.

Book Description

In Writing Workplace Cultures: An Archaeology of Professional Writing, Jim Henry analyzes eighty-three workplace writing ethnographies composed over seven years in a variety of organizations. He views the findings as so many shards in an archaeology on professional writing at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

These ethnographies were composed by either practicing or aspiring writers participating in a Master’s program in professional writing and editing. Henry solicited the writers' participation in "informed intersubjective research" focused on issues and questions of their own determination. Most writers studied their own workplace, composing "auto-ethnographies" that problematize these workplaces' local cultures even as they depict writing practices within them.

Henry establishes links between current professional writing practices and composition instruction as both were shaped by national economic development and local postsecondary reorganization throughout the twentieth century. He insists that if we accept basic principles of social constructionism, the text demonstrates ways in which writers "write" workplace cultures to produce goods and services whose effects go far beyond the immediate needs of its clients.

Product Description

The Pregnant Universe is a Neural Cocktail party of a brain getting drunk on itself. It is the essence of slimy copulation between known and unknown forces. As the planet braces for a series of new contractions, bizarre and interesting forces are being born---brains with new centers, new chemicals, new visions---going far beyond the suited dinosaurs prattling their slogans... The Modern Shaman is a Pilot---an individual of real power interacting with "spirits," pulling the triggers of knowledge, visions, brains and technologies culminating in---a creature---too ugly for the common to bear. Long out-of-print, A Modern Shaman's Guide to a Pregnant Universe is back by popular demand. Filled with Provocative Images and Mind-Pounding Ideas. Thoroughly iconoclastic and genuinely funny! One of Hyatt's favorites! Extensively illustrated.

You Are Your Own Doing.......2000-11-23

Are you ready to give birth? I bet you did not even know you were in labor. Well, its time to wake up and take the test. What test you ask? The Bi-Polar Brain Test of course. Its not hard, and you cant fail either (or pass for that matter). Its a skill monitor and change and alter perceptions as you read on. What you will learn, and what I found most ingenius, is that you and I and everyone in the world are chemistry kits. We have built in pharmacies! Why go out and buy alcohol when we can produce it ourselves? Why pay lots of money for acid when your brain is primed for such a state of existence! It wants it! And so do you!! And Christopher Hyatt and Antero Alli are just the tour guides to get you to that state of consciousness. In a fun picture filled fashion reminescent of Timothy Leary and Robert Anton Wilson with Alli and Hyatts own worldly wise witticisms that one can adore so easily. A book to run out and get at your local drugstore. Hurry,, before they sell out! Oh..I am sorry, they obviously did sell out since this book is now out of print. Well, seemingly like a lot of good books they are forgotten and the presses are held up until further notice. Check your usedbook.com store or one in your hometown, see if they got it. If they do, get it. And even more so, get Antero Alli's Akashic Record Player which is a precursor to this marvelous book!! Love It!

Book Description

Hitherto only available in Japanese text, this unique work is now published in English language format (reprinted now following exceptional demand) and provides an in-depth review of the fighter units of the Imperial Japanese Army Air Force and their pilots. This translation is a companion volume to other Grub Street titles such as Aces High and Stars and Bars. It is and indispensable reference for the serious research student and historian. Ikuhiko Hata is a past Fellow of the Woodrow Wilson Center and presently Professor of History at Nihon University. His previous works include A History of the Japanese-Chinese War, 1931-1941. Yasuho Izawa is an Opthalmic Optician whose past works include Japanese Naval Aces and Fighter Units (with Professor Hata) and Bloody Shambles Vols 1 and 2 (with Christopher Shores).

Customer Reviews:

You'll be sorry!.......2003-07-24

The careful translation of the original text into a more nicely-flowing English; the influence of the master historian, Chris Shores; the decision to publish by the renowned Grub Street Press: this should be a much better book than the volume detailing the naval fighter units of Japan by the same authors.

But it's not.

If you spend the better part of forty dollars hoping for a book that is more like Mr. Shores' "Bloody Shambles", Mr. Ford's "Flying Tigers", or even Mr. Bergerud's "Fire in the Sky", then you'll be sorry.

60 years overdue!.......2002-12-23

This handsome, detailed book lifts the curtain on the Japanese army units that fought in China, Southeast Asia, and the home islands during World War II. It's based on a Japanese-language text by a noted historian and an aviation buff, and rendered into workable English by the British historian Christopher Shores. The result is a much more accessible book than the earlier one by the same Japanese authors about the larger Japanese navy air force. There are many photos, side-views of JAAF fighters, accounts of the major campaigns, biographies of the aces (happily arranged in alphabetical order so you can quickly look them up), and an appendix listing every major air combat and every JAAF pilot lost in 15 years of war. A solid book that belongs in the library of every serious student of the Pacific War. -- Dan Ford

Customer Reviews:

My favorite book at the moment - not a fan of our world.......1998-02-17

As far as books on the state we're in go, this one is a cracker. Not the easiest to read, or most gripping - but Jean knows what he thinks and he has thought a great deal. Plenty of metaphors for reading the world and copious references. It would be twee of me to say that I agreed with everything he said, but I would say that he certainly has some excellent reflections and observations on how the world is shaping us, shaping it. From the compression of time to the extent of globalisation and the hegemonic forces of modern capitalism. Not truly a layman's book, nor is it purely for the academic in the field. This book is for those who are concerned about where we are, where we have been, and, you've guessed it, where we are going. A great and masterful synopsis of modern life, with a little self importance but perhaps a little more justification for it. I like what is written there.

It is estimated that more than 63 million Americans feed wild birds and spend more than 2 billion dollars a year on birdseed, feeders, and other equipment. Habitat loss is a critical issue for wildlife everywhere, and for birds in particular human help may become (or already be) critical to the survival of some species. Mathew Tekulsky provides information on bird biology, calls, and geographic ranges to help identify birds in your area. He explains how to plan and plant a bird-friendly garden, recipes for birdseed mixtures and nectars, ways to provide year-round water for birds, placement of bird houses, and even advice on photographing birds that visit your birdfeeder.

Tekulsky writes of his delight and awe of birds, "All these experiences connect me with the rhythms of the natural world, and if you start a backyard bird garden of your own, you, too, will enjoy all the benefits of having the birds around you." This is a charming small book for bird lovers with lovely drawings and a useful index. --Mark A. Hetts

Book Description
