Master Watchmaker&His Art
Master watch designer and inventor George Daniels was regarded as the finest exponent of his craft in the world. Over the course of his career he laboriously constructed just 25 watches using antiquated tools, creating almost every component by hand. Experts appreciate these watches as milestones in the art of watchmaking, and the timepieces now change hands for sums of up to GBP200,000. This volume features comprehensive images of all of the unique watches Daniels produced in his career. Meticulous photography captures not only each masterpieces distinctive face, but also the detail behind the dial and the intricate workings that power the watch itself. Rare and previously unseen images from Danielss own archive of photographs and working drawings are also reproduced. Michael Clerizo worked closely with George Daniels in the preparation of this book, the craftsman recounting his life and career over their innumerable conversations at his home on the Isle of Man. That ample biography is also contained herein, ensuring that the book is a fitting and authentic tribute to the greatest watchmaker of the twentieth century.

Cesta za svobodou
V osmdesátých letech před Kristem kráčí mladý řecký otrok v dlouhém zástupu vstříc nejasné budoucnosti. Bojuje s nemocemi, nepřízní osudu i nevyzpytatelnými římskými vojáky, kteří berou Řeky jako kusy masa a podle toho s nimi zacházejí.
Během anabáze se spřátelí s bílým Syřanem Hypsikratem, milovníkem dobrého moku Sullou a lazebníkem Luciem. Navzdory předpokladům, mizivým šancím a těžké práci v dolech, kterou přežívá jen hrstka vyvolených, se jim daří vymanit z otrockých pout a vydat se vstříc dobrodružství. Čekají je velké bitvy, osobní traumata a jejich vysněný spasitel Spartakus, který je má dovést k cíli – římské republice takové, jakou si ji vysnili. A na konci je čeká svoboda. Zůstává jen otázkou, jestli ji přivítají ještě naživu…

The Art of War Visualized
Author and illustrator of How to Be Interesting, Jessica Hagy is a cutting-edge thinker whose language - comprising circles, arrows, and lines and the well-chosen word or ?two - makes her an ideal philosopher for our ever-more-visual culture. Her charts and diagrams are deceptively simple, often funny, and always thought-provoking. She knows how to communicate not only ideas but the complex process of thinking itself, complete with its twists and surprises. ?For The Art of War Visualized, she presents her vision in evocative ink-brush art and bold typography. The result is page after page in which each passage of the complete canonical text (in its best-known Lionel Giles translation) is visually interpreted in a singular diagram, chart, or other illustration - transforming, reenergizing, and making the classic dazzlingly accessible for a new generation of readers.

Graffiti and Street Art
This concise and accessible survey, the latest title in Thames &?Hudsons renowned World of Art series, is set to become the definitive popular guide to graffiti and street art. The traditional letter-based graffiti that appeared on the streets of Phi
ladelphia and New York over forty years ago launched a global art movement that has evolved into two distinct disciplines. While both thrive illegally and challenge the concept of public space, the new wave of street art puts greater emphasis on figu
res, abstraction, symbols and formal techniques. This book explains the terms and language of graffiti and street art from tags and throwies to culture jamming and subvertising as well as their multiple influences and sub-genres. Organized thematical
ly, it traces the origins and evolution of graffiti and street art, and explores the motivations and practices of the leading exponents; the relationship between these art forms and the urban environment; their interactions with (or rejection of) the
market and the world of commercial galleries; and their increasingly important role in visual culture as a whole.
