Sinossi

"Designer Exit Scandals" dives into the tumultuous world of design, exploring the dramatic departures of prominent designers and the ripple effects these exits have on the industry. It's not just about firings and resignations; the book investigates the complex circumstances that lead to these career disruptions, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the high-stakes intersection of talent, business, and personal lives. Consider the pressure of maintaining creative control versus the demands of a business, or the impact of fame that can derail a designer's career. This book uniquely focuses on the often-overlooked "exit" as a critical moment of analysis, rather than solely celebrating success stories. Through detailed case studies, the book examines the roles of management, personal struggles, and external pressures in these departures, drawing broader conclusions about the nature of the design industry and the need for ethical leadership. The book progresses by first establishing a framework for understanding the "designer exit," then presenting specific cases, and finally synthesizing these cases to offer practical recommendations.

Ice Age The: The History and...

Editors Charles River

The early history of Earth covers such vast stretches of time that years, centuries, and even millennia become virtually meaningless. Instead, paleontologists and scientists who study geochronology divide time into periods and eras.
What humans commonly refer to as the “Ice Age” is actually a series of fluctuating climate events that have occurred throughout the planet’s history. These ongoing historical phenomena are difficult to conceptualize because of both the time frame involved and the natural process by which they cyclically unfold. The Earth’s climatic clock repeats the maneuver over millions of years per occurrence, a number that is intellectually graspable, but not viscerally well-perceivable by most members of the human race. The process by which ice ages form is not relevant to any societal function, and therefore remains a mystery. Those who attempt to define it are often met with either apathy or defiant superstition.
As a basic definition, it may be said that an ice age is simply a period of time during which thick ice sheets cover vast areas of land. These sheets have advanced and retreated, at times taking over the entire planet, and conversely disappearing nearly altogether. Glacial ice formed by this regularly occurring process does not sit in a state of inertia, but moves dynamically, reshaping the geological features of the continents. Again, the time frame for glacial movement is far longer than any involving human activity, so close attention must be paid in order to correctly measure and interpret it for the modern day.

David Lynch - Revised & Updated...

Colin Odell, Michelle Le Blanc

Internationally renowned, David Lynch was America's premier purveyor of the surreal, an artist whose work in cinema, television, and the internet exposed the world to his highly personalized view of society. This book examines his oeuvre, from the cult surrealism of his debut feature Eraserhead to his last feature Inland Empire, considering the themes, motifs, and stories behind his incredible feature films, shorts, and internet projects. His series Twin Peaks revolutionized TV and expanded the possibilities of what the medium could offer. This updated edition includes Twin Peaks: The Return, his continuation of the series twenty-five years after the original had set the world alight. 
 
In Lynch's world the mundane and the fantastical collide, often with terrifying consequences. It is a place where the abnormal is normal, where the respectable becomes sinister, where innocence is lost and redemption gained at a terrible price. And there's always music in the air. From the deserts of a distant world to an ordinary backyard, at the breakneck speed of Lost Highway or the sedate determination of The Straight Story, listeners will experience amateur sleuths, messiahs, giants and dwarves, chanteuses, psychopaths, cherry pie, and damn fine coffee. 
 
David Lynch is your guide to this other world . . . and this is your guide to David Lynch.

Tories The: A Tragedy

Henry Morris

'Fantastic' – James O'Brien
The brilliant mind behind the Secret Tory presents 14 years of Tory rule – as told by William Shakespeare
'O, for a muse of fire that would ascend
The brightest heaven of pretention!
A kingdom for a stage, Tories to act,
Oligarchs to behold the swelling scene!’
So begins The Tories: A Tragedy. In this brilliant new work of political satire, Henry Morris presents fourteen years of Conservative (mis)rule in the only form in which such misfortunes could be portrayed: as a Shakespearean play.
In five acts that take in five prime ministers, The Tories: A Tragedy is a captivatingly realised Jacobean tragedy, replete with Machiavellian manoeuvrings, hilarious mechanicals and poignant verse. Publishing in the shadow of the most significant election since the Tories came to power in 2010, this exhilarating, original book is an alternative history of a disastrous reign – a drama that will appeal to those who love Shakespeare, comedy, Shakespeare’s comedies, and those who simply love to laugh at the Tory party.
In The Tories: A Tragedy, Morris uses his expertise in arts, theatre, and playwriting to create a humorous and poignant portrayal of conservatism. This non-fiction novel is a must-read for anyone interested in politics, ideologies, and the process of performing.
For fans of Robert Jobson (Diana), Hugo Vickers (Malice in Wonderland), Anne Glenconner (Whatever Next?), Rory Stewart (The Marches), and The Secret Barrister (Nothing But The Truth).

I Love You Byeee: Rambles on DIY...

Adam Buxton

A Sunday Times Bestseller
‘I Love You, Byeee is poignant and properly funny; a bracing dip into nostalgia, but self-aware, too.’ Observer
The long-awaited new memoir and follow-up to the bestselling Ramble Book.
Hey, how you doing, casual browser? Adam Buxton here. Are you ready for some hot hyperbole about this book? Here we go …
In I Love You, Byeee, the highly anticipated follow up to the bestselling Ramble Book, I reminisce with hilarious and heartwarming candour about the highs and lows of working with Joe Cornish and revolutionising the worlds of DIY TV and podcasting in the process.
You’ll hear about my crazy times hanging out with notorious rock’ n’ roll hellraisers like Travis and Radiohead. I write with humour and heartbreaking poignancy about the challenges of parenting, losing my mother (to death, that is – we didn’t get separated in a shop) and the drug hell that led to me nearly dying in the arms of a comedy legend. There’s also a bit about arguing with my wife, getting instructions on edginess from Louis Theroux, going on Bake Off and much more that you didn’t ask for but definitely need.
For all that, plus hours of bonus waffle and original music, why not download the audiobook, too?
Phew! I think we both need a shower after that. Take care – I love you, byeee!
If you want non-fiction that reads like the best memoirs, this autobiography brings entertainment, arts and television to life with Buxton’s unmistakable performing voice. It’s a Sunday Times bestselling book and a bestseller that also captures the internet era—computers, webcasting and all—without losing the human heart of the story.
For fans of Richard Ayoade (Ayoade on Ayoade), Michael Palin (Pole To Pole), David Sedaris (A Carnival of Snackery), James Acaster (Perfect Sound Whatever), and Jon Ronson (Frank).

The Annals of Tacitus - Excerpts

Cornelius Tacitus

The Annals, the last and greatest achievement of Tacitus, records the history of the Julio-Claudian emperors from the death of Augustus (14 A.D.) to the reign of Nero (54-68). These are stories of mutiny and murder, of whole armies disappearing beyond the Rhine, of an unstable and gloomy frontier. Tacitus brings us Nero himself, whose reign saw the burning of Rome and the mass slaughter of Christians, and whose vices still captivate and startle us with their imagination and cruelty.
