The Spring and Autumn Annals of Master Yan is the biography of the most important statesmen and political thinkers of the Eastern Zhou dynasty China: Yan Ying (d. 500 BCE). Living through an exceptionally troubled period, he served three rulers and two dictators of the state of Qi, in Shandong Province. His experiences informed his revolutionary theories concerning the relationship between the individual and the state. Long considered to be a forgery, recent archaeological discoveries have proved the Spring and Autumn Annals of Master Yan to be a genuinely ancient text. This book provides not only the first complete translation of the text into any Western language, but a detailed analysis of the context in which it was produced.

Das internationale Schriftschaffen nach 1950 wurde maßgeblich geprägt vom Schweizer Adrian Frutiger. Sein Schriftprogramm Univers und die zum ISO-Standard erklärte, maschinenlesbare Schrift OCR-B sind ebenso Meilensteine wie die zur Frutiger weiterentwickelte Schrift der Pariser Flughäfen – ein Qualitätsstandard für Signalisationsschriften. Mit den Corporate Types prägte er Firmenauftritte wie den der japanischen Kosmetiklinie Shiseido. Insgesamt entstanden rund 50 Schriften, darunter Ondine, Méridien, Avenir und Vectora. Auf Gesprächen mit Frutiger basierend sowie auf umfangreichen Recherchen in Frankreich, England, Deutschland und der Schweiz, zeichnet die Publikation den gestalterischen Werdegang des Schriftkünstlers exakt nach. Es werden alle Schriften – vom Entwurf bis zur Vermarktung – abgebildet sowie mit Bezug zu Technik und zu artverwandten Schriften analysiert. Bisher unveröffentlichte, nicht realisierte Schriften sowie über 100 Logos vervollständigen das Bild. Mit dieser zweiten Auflage, einer korrigierten und durch einen Index erweiterten Studienausgabe, lässt sich Frutigers Werk noch besser erschliessen.
"This is a little jewel of a book. Beautifully and elegantly written, it examines the political career of an important figure at the court of Philip II of Spain. It is political biography in the best sense of the term."--Richard Kagan, author of Lucrecia's Dreams
"Lit to Burn," is the triumphant tale of an incestually abused child turned teenage stripper who feels her way through cancer, higher education, and speaking to the dead. An entire proven mind + body + spirit program is outlined in this work on how to turn your own life around, if you've found yourself headed in the wrong direction. This book is a study in the soul's (r)evolution, how to level up, and what comes before and after this earthly lifetime. You might say it's a deeply disturbing memoir, the disconnected ramblings of a terminally ill dementia riddled mind, a blueprint for the alpha and omega of creation, a brilliant piece by a spiritist medium who channels angels, or total nonsense. No matter the name by which you call it, you won't be able to put it down. Interspersed with heart-achingly genuine poetry and clear directions for finding your own way from shattered to whole, The Molly Llama gives you a clever map for your own long, hard road out of hell. From writing the most viral internationally covered post in history on police brutality to then marrying a cop, Molly is a masterful storyteller, who walks you gingerly down the sacred, hallowed hallways of her own trauma. With vivid imagery of the winding dirt roads of her rural hometown, this tattooed lesbian unfolds the mystery of how she went from extreme poverty and addiction to a doctoral program and motherhood. The Molly Llama illuminates the path so that you, too, may be lit to burn - rather than succumbing to what was meant to ruin you.She lets up on the intensity of experiencing her story at just the right times so you can breathe again, then takes it one step further by showing you how to heal. She lays herself bare in this work, exposing and risking all, utilizing her raw authenticity in the sharp-edged voice she's become known for when guiding others. She stands before you, bleeding in this work, and is anointed holy by her own pain. By the end of this wild ride with Molly, you'll realize that while life is indeed a terminal condition, it is not meant to be suffered through, but savored. *Extreme trigger warning: Abuse of all kinds written about in excruciating detail.
