Review Toulouse Lautrec. Catalogue raisonne des estampes (2 Tomes) / Art Creation Realisation:Toulouse-Lautrec sketched the characters of Montmartre life; music-hall actors and the events which marked his day. Today, his testimonies of a life and era have acquired inestimable value. New discoveries, and studies call for the elaboration of a new more complete catalogue raisonné. Four hundred documents, including galley and trial proofs, lithographs, ""pointes sèches"", monotypes and posters which he created between 1891 and 1900 are presented. These give the book a broader more diversified perspective than any of its predecessors.

Review Twentieth Century American Drama / Routledge:There was a vast array of activity in American theatre during the twentieth century, when work produced in the United States reached the height of its significance and influence within the world repertoire.

The articles here, discussed in a helpful introduction by the editor, cover a variety of themes from the battles over realism and expressionism at the beginning of the century, to the emergence of Freudian and myth criticism, the response to post-structural theory in the seventies and eighties, and the intense focus on issues of gender, sexual identity and ethnicity toward the end of the century.

Review Mahmoud Farshchian / NYU Press:On account of their extraordinary draftsmanship, their wide coloristic range and innate sense of the decorative aspect, the drawings and paintings of Mr. Mahmoud Farshchian are in the true tradition of the great Iranian painters. - Dr. Richard Ettinghausen, Director, The Department of Islamic Art, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1969- 1979I am always amazed at the beautiful draftsmanship and the skill displayed in the paintings by Farshchian. - Dr. Harold P. Stern, Director, Smithsonian Institute, Freer Gallery of Art, Washington, DC, 1971-1977It is a pleasure to show the imaginative creations of Mr. Farshchian, who surely must be considered among the most talented contemporary artists. - Daniel M. MacMaster, former President, Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago, IL The latter-day inheritor of the long and illustrious tradition of classical Persian painting, Mahmoud Farshchian is a recognized master of every element of this medium, from architecture and figure painting to arabesques, ornamental animals, still life, and cloud-bands. [+]
In this unprecedented and lavishly produced volume, Farshchian presents his most powerful and influential works. A scholar artist steeped in the classical Persian repertoire, Farshchian first received international recognition with an exhibit at the Art Institute of Istanbul in 1960 and, later that same year, through another one-man exhibit at the Golestan Museum in Teheran. Since then, major exhibitions of his work have been held in Milan, Rome, Munich, Vienna, Algiers, Paris, Washington, DC, New York, Chicago. This unique volume highlights this remarkable career.

Review Encyclopedia of Forensic and Legal Medicine, Volume 1-4 / Academic Press:Increasingly, high profile criminal and civil legal actions around the world highlight the interactions between medicine and the law. Forensic and legal medicine describes the body of knowledge that encompasses this interaction. The terms generally embrace forensic pathology and clinical forensic medicine. However, the nature of forensic and legal medicine is broad and may extend beyond medical and legal issues, into scientific and technical areas, and include specialist roles such as anthropology, toxicology, odontology and psychiatry. Separate from these issues is the much more widely recognized need to apply moral, ethical and human rights principles in the investigation of certain crimes, whether considering victims or perpetrators. Those involved in the practice of forensic and legal medicine and those in legal, judicial, police and other investigative organizations which require knowledge of aspects of forensic and legal medicine often need to identify appropriate and relevant information. The aim of this Encyclopedia is to provide a reliable starting point for validated information across these fields. The success of lawsuits and prosecutions is dependent on utilizing the best services available, and knowing when to use them appropriately. All aspects of medicine are now scrutinized, not only by medical, legal and scientific professionals - but also by the lay public. Such scrutiny drives and improves standards - and some of these standards have come about as a result of major cases in criminal and civil courts and other tribunals around the world. [+]
The drive for much of this scrutiny derives from the intense review that occurs as a result of events taking place throughout the world in criminal and civil courts. Thus, improved methodology of detecting and documenting evidence, ensuring chains of custody and scientifically testing evidence ensures that appropriate judicial outcomes are achieved. Teaching of forensic and legal medicine at an undergraduate level is - on a worldwide basis - underemphasized when compared with therapeutic specialities. Paradoxically, barely a day goes by without at least one medical news story being published of legal and forensic relevance and significance. The need for readily accessible knowledge has never been greater. The Encyclopedia of Forensic & Legal Medicine comprehensively covers forensic and legal medicine (including related specialities and scientific, technical and legal issues) and is available online and in three printed volumes, offering any practitioner in a forensic, medical, healthcare, legal, judicial, or investigative field easily accessible and authoritative overviews on a wide range of topics. The work is edited and written by experienced professionals with medical, legal or dual training - and who are internationally renowned for their experience or expertise within their areas of specialty. The Editorial Board reflects the multidisciplinary, multi-jurisdictional and global emphasis of forensic and legal medicine. The individual articles are written in a clear and concise manner and are supplemented by diagrams, tables and full-color images. Key further reading and extensive cross-referencing make this work an invaluable reference source for undergraduates and graduates looking for an introduction to key fields and experts reading outside their specialization. Online access to the Encyclopedia is available on ScienceDirect. The online version will offer all that the print version does plus smooth linking, eg, to cross-referenced articles, powerful search functions, and more. Visit www. info. sciencedirect. com/reference_works/index. shtml for contact and subscription information. Access options are available even if you're not an existing ScienceDirect customer. * Brings together all appropriate aspects of forensic medicine and legal medicine * Contains color figures, sample forms and other materials that the reader can adapt for their own practice * Also avaiable in an on-line version which provides numerous additional reference and research tools, additional multimedia, & powerful search functions.

Review Clifford Ross: Wave Music / Aperture:Clifford Ross's Wave Music by photographer Clifford Ross, opens with explosive images of stormy seas and skies-photographs taken on the edge of hurricanes. This series presents gorgeous, formalist slices of nature at her most tempestuous and romantic. As Wave Music progresses, however, the focus tightens with increasing obsession on the processes and materials of the photographic medium. The "Hurricane" series is followed by "Horizons," classically composed images of sky and quiet surf, and finally, by images of pure photographic grain. The "Grain" pictures are pure abstractions-tonal fields of grey. Each "Grain" image echoes the tones seen in the previous two series and addresses the very stuff of black-and-white photography itself. In Wave Music, Clifford Ross provides an incredible, heuristic journey, from the ecstatic formalism of ocean waves to the abstract sublime of pure light. Underlying each of the series and providing a unifying thread, are shifting elements of gesture, composition, and tone. Each of the images is exquisitely reproduced in tritone.
