The Life and Love of Cats by Lewis Blackwell Pdf

"The Life and Love of Cats "takes us on an unforgettable journey--we travel from the homes of middle-America today, back to the demonized creatures hiding in the alleys of medieval Europe; from wild cousins on the plains of Africa to rare hybrid domestic breeds like the Savannah; and from fashionable show breeds to shelter cats lovingly rescued by volunteers. Starting with the earliest records of domestic cats 9,000 years ago in Africa and the Mediterranean and moving to the present, Lewis Blackwell weaves stories of one of humankind's closest companions with a collection of more than 100 unforgettable images. Praise for "The Life and Love of Cats: " "Fabulous felines." --"People" "As good as Blackwell's text is (and it's quite good--an approachable, informative, and appreciative study of cats of all breeds), the true appeal of the book is the stunning images." --"Publishers Weekly," starred review"" "Filled with gorgeous color photos of domestic and wild felines: Russian blues, Siamese, lions, leopards, Bengal tigers and more." --BookPage "A global tour of one of the world's most popular animals." --"The Charlotte Observer " "This is a gorgeous coffee table book" --"dooce"

More Than Human by Tim Flach,Lewis Blackwell Pdf

Award-winning photographer Tim Flach has spent years inquiring into the essential bond we have with animals. Now he presents the culmination of a career-long endeavor, an extraordinary body of work in which each image is more striking and powerful than the last. Just as did Flach's highly acclaimed previous books, "Equus "and "Dogs," "More than Human "will amaze and inspire, in a constant affirmation of the animal, whether it be rare or common, powerful or defenseless, odd or majestic. The book showcases a menagerie of creatures--pandas, tigers, bats, lions, orangutans, cobras, bullfrogs, chimpanzees, wolves, porcupines, elephants, owls, armadillos, among many others--as they have never been seen before. Shedding light on Flach's images will be an accessible collection of texts, written and edited by author Lewis Blackwell. Praise for "More Than Human: " "A gallery of animal portraits that are unlike anything we've seen before." --"The Wall Street Journal" "His technique is impeccable; this is one of the most gorgeous photography books of the year. But what makes it more than a coffee-table trifle is the way Flach's images connect us--with near-tactile sensation and soulfulness--to the creatures on display." --NPR.org "Arresting portraits that express photographer Flach's 'sense of wonderment in nature.'" --"People" """Astoundingly sharp images." - The San Francisco Chronicle"" "Compelling and unexpected." --"The Denver Post" "Treat yourself to the full glory of "More Than Human," for the screen hardly does it justice." --Brain Pickings.com "A book of animal photographs guaranteed to dazzle viewers with their color, detail, clarity and, most of all, their uncanny 'humanity.'"-- BookPage

Twentieth Century Type and Beyond by Lewis Blackwell Pdf

This substantially revised edition of Lewis Blackwell's classic study provides an up-to-date, decade-by-decade analysis of the issues that have shaped the history and development of typographic design. The book provides an informed and accessible guide to the typography of the twentieth century and the key questions that are shaping contemporary graphic practice. Subjects include the arrival of mass production, the development of the grid, the arrival of new media forms, and the role the launch of the Macintosh played in fostering a new generation of designers enfranchised by digital technology. Beyond the twentieth century, the digital sphere has grown exponentially, placing typographic decisions in the hands of ever more users of computers, smartphones, e-readers, and tablets. Blackwell discusses the strains this has placed on type, the fresh questions it has asked, and the way the forms of letters are evolving in response.

Issues by Jeremy Leslie Pdf

Despite the long-rumoured end of print, there have never been so many magazine titles available, as more and more titles are printed in ever-increasing print-runs. This book sets out to examine the whole culture of magazines from the point of view of their design. It shows how the look of a magazine is defined by factors such as advertising and distribution, and how the current pluralistic approach means that there is more visual variety than ever before.
