Synopsis

In "Balbus; or, the Future of Architecture," Christian Augustus Barman presents an intricate examination of architectural theory, skillfully blending aesthetics with socio-cultural commentary. This provocative text employs a unique narrative style that oscillates between philosophical discourse and practical design implications, reflecting the evolving relationship between architecture and its societal context during the early 19th century. Barman's insights challenge conventional paradigms, pushing readers to contemplate the ethical responsibilities of architects as they shape public spaces and collective identities in a rapidly industrializing world. Barman, a forward-thinking architect and theorist, was influenced by his experiences in an era characterized by profound social change and technological advancement. His background in both classical architecture and emerging modernism informs his critical perspective, allowing him to situate architectural practices within broader historical and cultural narratives. Barman's passion for innovation and a belief in the transformative power of architecture resonates throughout the text, inviting readers to reconsider the impact of their built environments on human experience and interaction. "Balbus; or, the Future of Architecture" is a must-read for practitioners, students, and enthusiasts who seek to deepen their understanding of architecture's role in shaping society. Barman's eloquent prose and insightful analyses will inspire readers to envision a future where architecture is not merely a function of utility but a conduit for social engagement and ethical responsibility.

In The Philosophy of Andy Warhol, the enigmatic, legendary Warhol makes the listener his confidant on love, sex, food, beauty, fame, work, money, success, and much more. 
 
 
 
Andy Warhol claimed that he loved being outside a party—so that he could get in. But more often than not, the party was at his own studio, The Factory, where celebrities—from Edie Sedgwick and Allen Ginsberg to the Rolling Stones and the Velvet Underground—gathered in an ongoing bash. 
 
 
 
A loosely formed autobiography, told with his trademark blend of irony and detachment, this compelling and eccentric memoir riffs and reflects on all things Warhol: New York, America, and his childhood in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, as well as the explosion of his career in the sixties, and his life among the rich and famous. 
 
 
 
Contains mature themes.

Songs that sell the most copies become hits, but some of those hits become something more—iconic recordings that not only inspire a generation but also change the direction of music. In Anatomy of 55 More Songs, based on his column for the Wall Street Journal, music journalist and historian Marc Myers tells the story behind fifty-five rock, pop, R&B, country, and soul-gospel hits through intimate interviews with the artists who wrote and recorded them. 
 
 
 
Part oral history, part musical analysis, Anatomy of 55 More Songs ranges from Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Bad Moon Rising" to Dionne Warwick's "Walk On By," The Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations," and Black Sabbath's "Paranoid." Bernie Taupin recalls how he wrote the lyrics to Elton John's "Rocket Man;" Joan Jett remembers channeling her rage against how she had been unfairly labeled and treated as a female rocker into "Bad Reputation;" and Ozzy Osbourne, Elvis Costello, Bob Weir, Sheryl Crow, Alice Cooper, Roberta Flack, John Mellencamp, Keith Richards, Carly Simon, and many others reveal the emotions and technique behind their major works. 
 
  
 
Through an absorbing chronological, song-by-song analysis of the most memorable post-war hits, Anatomy of 55 More Songs provides a sweeping look at the evolution of pop music between 1964 and today.
