  How can we interpret the work of contemporary artists? Focal Points is a new book series of essays, articles and reviews by acclaimed curator and critic Robert Storr. Expertly edited by art historian and curator Francesca Pietropaolo, and richly illustrated, it lends Storr’s illuminating insights into an artist’s practice and way of thinking across recent decades. Brilliantly scholarly, accessible and engaging, Focal Points offers fresh interpretations of the varied territory of modern and contemporary art.????Through a selection of texts spanning from 1986 to 2016, volume one brings together thirty years of Storr’s writings on American artist Bruce Nauman (b.1941) whose practice encompasses sculpture, photography, neon, drawing, printmaking and performance. Much of Nauman’s work makes use of language games and visual puns, influenced by the linguistic theories of twentieth-century thinker Ludwig Wittgenstein and by the work of writer, poet and playwright Samuel Beckett. Describing his work in 1970, Nauman said: ‘Sometimes the activity involves making something, and sometimes the activity is the piece.’

  Learn how your thoughts hold the power to transform your life from the cells up. 
  It has been more than 15 years since the publication of The Biology of Belief, Dr. Bruce H. Lipton’s seminal book that changed the way we think about our lives, our health, and our planet. During that time, research in the field of epigenetics has grown exponentially, and Dr. Lipton’s groundbreaking experiments have been reinforced by more than a decade of rigorous scientific study. 
  Now, this unabridged audio of the book explores Dr. Lipton’s experiments and those of other leading-edge scientists who have unraveled the profound connections between the mind, body, and spirit. 
  It is now widely recognized that genes and DNA do not control our biology. Instead, they are controlled by signals from outside the cell, including energetic messages emanating from our thoughts. This profoundly hopeful synthesis of the latest and best research in cell biology and quantum physics puts the power to create a healthy, joyous life back in our own hands. 
  Through simple language, humor, and real-life examples, you’ll discover how epigenetics is revolutionizing our understanding of the link between mind and matter. When we transform our conscious and subconscious thoughts, Dr. Lipton teaches, we transform our lives - and in the process, we help humanity evolve to a new level of understanding and peace.

  In *Calyx*, the story unfolds of an unusual friendship between Armin, a successful high school graduate, and little Dennis, who is threatened by an incurable virus. As part of his voluntary social year in a municipal hospital, Armin discovers a well-kept secret about a room where Dennis is in the isolation ward. The virus, transmissible through blood and bodily fluids, has turned the once innocent boy into a little monster.    Despite the warnings and his girlfriend Ruth's fear of possible infection, Armin decides to gain little Dennis' trust. A tender friendship develops, which is challenged by Doctor Pneuma's merciless control and the boy's isolation. Ruth, initially skeptical, eventually succumbs to little Dennis' charm and mischievousness.    *Calyx* is not only a novel about friendship and respect, but also a story full of humor, drama, suspense and adventure. The close bond between Armin, Ruth and Dennis is put to the test when they embark on extraordinary adventures together outside the supposed safety of the hospital. This novel shows that nothing in life can be planned and that things always turn out differently than you think.
