Thomas Bewick wrote A History of British Birds at the end of the eighteenth century, just as Britain fell in love with nature. This was one of the wildlife books that marked the moment, the first field-guide for ordinary people, illustrated by woodcuts of astonishing accuracy and beauty. But it was far more than that, for in the vivid vignettes scattered through the book Bewick drew the life of the country people of the North East - a world already vanishing under the threat of enclosures.In this superbly illustrated biography, Jenny Uglow tells the story of the farmers son from Tyneside who revolutionised wood-engraving and influenced book illustration for a century to come. It is a story of violent change, radical politics, lost ways of life and the beauty of the wild - a journey to the beginning of our lasting obsession with the natural world. Natures Engraver won the National Arts Writers Award in 2007. Jenny Uglow is the author of, among others, A Gambling Man: Charles II and the Restoration, which was shortlisted for the 2010 Samuel Johnson Prize, Lunar Men and In These Times.

A escolha das roupas transmite uma mensagem sobre quem somos? De Coco Chanel a Rei Kawakubo, de Dior ao estilo das ruas, o fio condutor desse livro é o princípio fundamental da moda - a busca pelo novo. A moda permeia diversos niveis da nossa existencia, mas foi pouco estudada pelos filosofos. Ate agora. Com uma prosa agil e ironica, o autor reune referencias que vo da musica pop e da arte contemporanea a pensadores como Kant, Adorno, Barthes, Benjamin e Giddens. Concentrando-se no vestuario, faz um apanhado historico e analisa a relaço da moda com o corpo, a linguagem, a arte e o consumo. Assim, resume o que a filosofia e a sociologia tem a dizer sobre o assunto - e acrescenta muito a discusso. Inclui: apendice especial a ediço brasileira: texto da palestra no seminario Pense Moda, em So Paulo, 2009, em que o autor discute o tratamento dado a moda pela imprensa, em geral muito pouco critico.

O filósofo Gilles Lipovetsky, que provocou frenesi nos anos 80 ao colocar o fenômeno da moda no centro das discussões acadêmicas, volta seu poder de análise para um novo objeto de estudo: o universo

Costumes of Egypt: The Lost Legacies sums up decades of Shahira Mehrezs research: it is a four-volume work recording and tracing the origin of hitherto undocumented ways of dressing and jewelry of Egyptian women, most of which have today become obsolete. The costumes surveyed in this first volume establish the fact that irrespective of distant geographic locations, beyond religious and ethnic diversity, and throughout thousands of years of history and successive civilizations, Nubians, Nile Valley peasants, Bedouins and oasis dwellers, both Christian and Muslim, were heirs to the same legacy. Old and new emblems were melted into one tradition, defining a multifaceted but harmonious Egyptian identity. This tradition provides undeniable and tangible proof of the unity of the country and bears witness to the fact that throughout history these various communities were the different parts of a multicultural and pluralistic nation.

Traditional education, which is mainly based on evaluating theoretical content at the end of a course, is not in keeping with the skillset we require in the twenty-first century. Today, we need creative and innovative individuals who can think critically, who are capable of learning to learn, and who have complex problem-solving skills. We need people who can work collaboratively using transdisciplinary communication skills. We need citizens who are aware of local needs but have a global vision. They must make decisions not only based on their own well-being, but also in the best interests of the community and the planet. They must understand that the solution requires a balance.People can acquire these skills through design thinking, which builds the learning process by carrying out projects, and theorizes based on set challenges. Biodesign for High Schools is a pedagogical proposal that combines scientific topics with a creative approach; it offers a plethora of possibilities to prepare future high school graduates to respond to the needs of todays world.
