Summary

Wood Moisture Management addresses the critical challenge of preserving wooden structures in changing climates by focusing on building science principles to combat rot and decay. The book uniquely emphasizes a proactive approach to moisture control, shifting from reactive repairs to preventative construction techniques. This includes understanding moisture sources like rain and condensation, which are key to preventing wood decay, a process driven by fungi and microorganisms. The book progresses from fundamental concepts of moisture behavior and wood decay to examining specific moisture sources and preventative techniques, such as material selection and ventilation strategies. It presents information in an accessible manner, integrating real-world case studies and unique data from moisture monitoring to demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed strategies. Ultimately, it promotes a systems-thinking approach for long-term durability of wooden structures.

    In his works, Hopper poetically expressed the solitude of man confronted to the American way of life as it developed in the 1920s. Inspired by the movies and particularly by the various camera angles and attitudes of characters, his paintings expose the alienation of mass culture. Created using cold colours and inhabited by anonymous characters, Hopper's paintings also symbolically reflect the Great Depression.
Through a series of different reproductions (etchings, watercolours, and oil-on-canvas paintings), as well as thematic and artistic analysis, the author sheds new light on the enigmatic and tortured world of this outstanding figure.

    Discover "History of Art. Volume 4. Modern Art" by Élie Faure - a philosophical and poetic journey to the heart of artistic creation. In this final volume, Faure transcends eras to explore the essence of art as the vital pulse of humanity. From African idols to Venetian masterpieces, he reveals the profound connections between cultures and figurative expressions, analyzing the alternating rhythm of synthesis and analysis that drives History. From Ancient Egypt to the modern age, through Greece, India, and the West, Faure deciphers how art unites the chaos of passions with spiritual order - from architecture to painting, from sculpture to music. With enchanting prose, Faure celebrates the artist as a heroic Sisyphus, seeking the absolute in the fleeting. This fluid and immersive audiobook reading awakens the spirit to universal analogies, inviting us to reconsider our connection with the world. A visionary work that nourishes the soul and inspires.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. My handbook for reflection and recollection to tune my soul for amusement and pleasure. Favorite quote: MUSAEUS "Song is to mortals of all things the sweetest as per Aristotle in "On Poetry and Music" as translated by S.H. Butchers Bobbs Merrill Company Inc. Publishers (Library of Liberal Arts: Oscar Piest, Founder)I have fond memories of my mother reading poetry to me at night snug in my bed: ONE HUNDRED AND ONE FAMOUS POEMS and growing up in a little Iowa burg with my puckish friends, to taunt and haunt the orchards, woods, lumberyard and railroad depot. Moving on I obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in English: taught English and Shakespeare to engineers in Puerto Rico; returned to studies at the University of Iowa where I met and experience the work of many poets and artists in Iowa City. My first book of poems "Nine Lives" was published by Brad Harvey at Ocotillo Press.
