Pets Rock: More Fun Than Fame (Photography)
Pets Rock-A fusion of pets and pop culture. The artworks blend comic-con and the global celebrity phenomenon with our fascination with anthropomorphising pets. Blurring the line between animals and humans. In the Pets Rock world, animal antics meld with human hubris, where nothing is too serious and where no one is quite what they seem. After two best-selling editions of the Pets Rock franchise, this new volume presents the latest portraits from the Pets Rock cosmos, all of which are created by photographing the animals in their familiar environment. In the species-appropriate post production, the models are digitally transformed into hip-hop greats, film divas, and historic personalities.

If this book does not make you smile, we don’t know how to help you! Pets Rock rocks!Read more

Zaha Hadid
Zaha Hadid was a revolutionary architect, who for many years built almost nothing, despite winning critical acclaim. Some even said her audacious, futuristic designs were unbuildable.
During the latter years of her life, Hadid’s daring visions became a reality, bringing a unique new architectural language to cities and structures as varied as the Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati, hailed by The New York Times as “the most important new building in America since the Cold War”; the MAXXI Museum in Rome; the Guangzhou Opera House in China; and the London 2012 Olympics Aquatics Centre.
At the time of her unexpected death in 2016, Hadid was firmly established among the elite of world architecture, recognized as the first woman to win both the Pritzker Prize for architecture and the RIBA Royal Gold Medal, but above all as a giver of new forms, the first great architect of the noughties.
From her early sharply angled buildings to later more fluid architecture that made floors, ceilings, walls, and furniture part of an overall design, this essential introduction presents key examples of Hadid’s pioneering practice. She was an artist, as much as an architect, who fought to break the old rules and crafted her own 21st-century universe.
About the series
Born back in 1985, the Basic Art Series has evolved into the best-selling art book collection ever published. Each book in TASCHEN’s Basic Architecture series features:
an introduction to the life and work of the architect
the major works in chronological order
information about the clients, architectural preconditions as well as construction problems and resolutions
a list of all the selected works and a map indicating the locations of the best and most famous buildings
approximately 120 illustrations (photographs, sketches, drafts, and plans)

“Gripping” Tatler
The first in a thrilling new crime series set in Germany – the Black Forest Investigations
Louise Boni, maverick chief inspector with the Black Forest crime squad, is struggling with her demons. Divorced at forty-two, she is haunted by the shadows of the past.
Dreading yet another a dreary winter weekend alone, she receives a call from the departmental chief which signals the strangest assignment of her career – to trail a Japanese monk wandering through the snowy wasteland to the east of Freiburg, dressed only in sandals and a cowl. She sets off reluctantly, and by the time she catches up with him, she discovers that he is injured, and fearfully fleeing some unknown evil. When her own team comes under fire, the investigation takes on a terrifying dimension, uncovering a hideous ring of child traffickers. The repercussions of their crimes will change the course of her own life.
Oliver Bottini is a fresh and exciting voice in the world of crime fiction in translation; the Rhine borderlands of the Black Forest are a perfect setting for his beautifully crafted mysteries.

Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind: 50th Anniversary Edition
“In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities, but in the expert’s there are few.” So begins this most beloved of all American Zen books. Seldom has such a small handful of words provided a teaching as rich as has this famous opening line of Shunryu Suzuki’s classic. In a single stroke, the simple sentence cuts through the pervasive tendency students have of getting so close to Zen as to completely miss what it’s all about. An instant teaching on the first page. And that’s just the beginning.In the thirty years since its original publication, Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind has become one of the great modern Zen classics, much beloved, much re-read, and much recommended as the best first book to read on Zen. Suzuki Roshi presents the basics–from the details of posture and breathing in zazen to the perception of nonduality–in a way that is not only remarkably clear, but that also resonates with the joy of insight from the first to the last page. It’s a book to come back to time and time again as an inspiration to practice.

Zero at the Bone: Fifty Entries Against Despair
Few contemporary writers ask the questions about faith, morality, and God that Christian Wiman does, and even fewer – perhaps none – do so with his urgency and eloquence. Wiman, the author of My Bright Abyss and an award-winning poet, lays the motion of his mind on the page in this genre-defying work, an indivisible blend of poetry, criticism, theology, and searing memoir. As Marilynne Robinson wrote, “[Wiman’s] poetry and his scholarship have a purifying urgency that is rare in this world . . . It enables him to say new things in timeless language, so that the reader’s surprise and assent are one and the same.” Zero at the Bone begins with Wiman’s preoccupation with despair, and through fifty brief pieces, framed by two more, he unravels its seductive appeal. The book is studded with the poetry and prose of writers who inhabit Wiman’s thoughts, and the voices of Wallace Stevens, Lucille Clifton, Emily Dickinson, and more join his own. At its heart and Wiman’s, however, are his family – his young children (who ask their own invaluable questions, like “Why are you a poet? I mean why?”), his wife, and those he grew up with in West Texas. Wiman is the rare thinker who takes up the mantle of our greatest mystics and does so with an honest, profound, and contemporary sensibility. Zero at the Bone is a revelation.Read more

Zulu
Saul David’s Zulu: The Heroism and Tragedy of the Zulu War of 1879 is a fascinating look at the most controversial and brutal British imperial conflict of the nineteenth century.
The real story of the Anglo-Zulu war was one of deception, dishonour, incompetence and dereliction of duty by Lord Chelmsford who invaded Zululand without the knowledge of the British Government. But it did not go to plan and there were many political repercussions. Using new material from archives in Britain and South Africa, Saul David blows the lid on this most sordid of imperial wars and comes to a number of startling new conclusions.
‘Saul David’s brilliant and magisterial account must now be regarded as the definitive history of the Zulu War’ Frank McLynn, Literary Review
‘This meticulously detailed book…give[s] a fully rounded and judicious account of this dismal conflict Guardian
‘Fascinating, thrilling, convincing… reads like a novel’ Economist
Saul David is Professor of War Studies at the University of Buckingham and the author of several critically acclaimed history books, including The Indian Mutiny: 1857 (shortlisted for the Westminster Medal for Military Literature), Zulu: The Heroism and Tragedy of the Zulu War of 1879 (a Waterstone’s Military History Book of the Year) and, most recently, Victoria’s Wars: The Rise of Empire.

交陪美學論: 當代藝術面向近未來神祇 (Traditional Chinese Edition)
● 龔卓軍「近未來的交陪：台南蕭壠國際當代藝術節」相關論述首次有系統集結成書。
● 臺灣獨特之「交陪美學論」第一本專書
● 評論爬梳國內外相關重要文獻、學術研究、及當代重要展覽、影像、表演、藝術季等作品
「交陪 Kau-Puê」——含有交易、買取之意。（廈門話）
交際應酬、互盡友誼、彼此密切往來。（臺詞辭典）
街境守望、社區聯防、友境出陣、誼廟互挺。（《臺南府城聯境組織研究》）
五百年前，西方社會幾乎所有人都擁有對神或魔性力量的信仰，至今這種信仰只是眾多選項之一。五百年後，經過西方和日本的殖民、政權交替，臺灣民間信仰與廟宇文化中的交陪組織，至今仍維持活力不墜，影響著庶民社會的文化藝術表現語彙。
本書作者龔卓軍任教於臺南藝術大學藝術創作理論研究所，為近年臺灣最具能量、創意和影響力的藝術學者及策展人之一。 二〇一七年在臺南蕭壠文化園區策展之「近未來的交陪：蕭壠國際當代藝術節」，以紮實的田野調查先行，將臺灣民俗與宗教文化以藝術理論、美學觀點梳理廓清，並邀集跨域藝術家進行創作上的精彩交陪對作，令此展備受好評迴響，引起廣泛討論，並獲第十六屆台新藝術獎年度大獎肯定。此後作者延續策展及書寫藝術評論不輟，逐步建構出臺灣獨有的「交陪美學」概念。
本書為作者繼二〇〇七年《身體部署》的當代哲學理論之後，首度集結系列評論，直陳其十年策展實踐內蘊的藝術理論，讓地方文化面向世界文化，藉廟會藝術提煉當代藝術，從民間廟宇之間的動態「交陪境」，打造出一條屬於臺灣文化蘊育的獨特美學思路。
書中分成「理論」、「影像」、「展演」、「跨域」四大部分，以系列性的策展研究書寫，構築爬梳「交陪美學」的深層內涵，試圖探討當代藝術和民間藝術之間的交互滲透和內在張力，勾勒出藝術話語新路徑。
