When four famous 1960s radicals are gunned down, including the wife of an international media mogul, it would appear to be an open-and-shut case. A wealth of evidence ties the chief suspect, retired Marine sniper Carl Hitchcock, to the murders. Holder, until recently, of the record number of kills in Vietnam and anxious to reclaim his title, Hitchcock's subsequent suicide would seem to confirm his guilt. But FBI assistant director Nick Memphis has his doubts -- and calls on former Marine Corps sniper Bob Lee Swagger to investigate. As Swagger digs deeper, it becomes clear that matters are more complicated than would initially appear. The shots were not executed with the scope of a 1972 rifle, Hitchcock's weapon of choice, but by a high-tech scope used by active Marines. But as Swagger starts to unravel the tangled web of connections surrounding the murders, he finds his own days may be numbered. Because he's about to face one of his most ruthless adversaries yet -- a sniper whose keen intellect and pinpoint accuracy rivals his own. The end result will be a bloody confrontation that only one of them can survive.

Medical Art introduces the methods, principles and techniques that form the foundations for the successful medical artist. It focuses on artworks created by hand and places a strong emphasis on observational and drawing skills. As well as artistic techniques, it explains the skeletal and related structures relevant to the artist, covering many structural anatomical elements and their visual representation. It will be an invaluable handbook for anyone interested in the skills and information that underpin the astonishing images of medical art. "Medical art stands at the interface between art and medicine, a vital service for healthcare professionals regardless of their medical role and fills a very important niche. A medical artist may be asked to illustrate: a surgical technique in a book on surgery, an anatomy textbook, a poster for an exhibition/conference to illustrate research results, patient information leaflets, articles for publication in a medical journal, 3D modelling of some part of the body such as hand or foot, a joint with its associated bone or an internal organ, to design a website perhaps with a video which might include 3D images. This book clearly outlines the techniques needed to become a medical artist with detailed guidelines and exercises to introduce a potential medical artist to the skills required. These include basic drawing techniques using pen and ink and a range of pencils. There are also details of how to use and mix watercolour and how to match this with skin and specimen colours. This book is essential reading for any artist who wishes to specialise in medical art." -- DR MICHAEL OBRIEN MD, FRCP, FRGS, Hon. FMAA, Chairman and Examiner of the MAET TEACHES artistic lessons on perspective, light and shadow, tonal and colour work ADVISES on different media (pencil work, inks and watercolour) and when to use them INTRODUCES the medical landscape of the artist, including the skin, skeleton muscles and internal organs, and suggests where and how to study real specimens EXPLAINS how the medical artist must interpret and disseminate information effectively, with the end user in mind INCLUDES step-by-step examples to show the process, from first working with a specimen through to finishing an illustration, and suggests self-directed projects for the student Autorid: Joanna Cameron
Paul Darrow's career has encompassed theater, television, and film. Famed for his portrayal of ruthless and calculating computer expert Kerr Avon in Terry Nation's science fiction series Blake's 7, Darrow has also appeared in Coronation Street, Emergency Ward 10, and many other productions—including two guest appearances in Doctor Who. Populated by familiar names and productions, this is Paul's own story of his life and career. It tells of his association with Blake's 7—how he was cast, his experiences of making the show, what has happened since, and his memories of Terry Nation, the cast, and the crew. It also tells of his childhood, his time playing Elvis Presley, and his near miss with James Bond. Autorid: Paul Darrow
Winner, 2019 Barnard Hewitt Award for Outstanding Research in Theatre History, given by the American Society for Theatre Research Honorable Mention, 2021 Errol Hill Award, given by the American Society for Theatre Research Argues for a conception of black cultural life that exceeds post-blackness and conditions of loss In Afro-Fabulations: The Queer Drama of Black Life, cultural critic and historian Tavia Nyong'o surveys the conditions of contemporary black artistic production in the era of post-blackness. Moving fluidly between the insurgent art of the 1960's and the intersectional activism of the present day, Afro-Fabulations challenges genealogies of blackness that ignore its creative capacity to exceed conditions of traumatic loss, social death, and archival erasure. If black survival in an anti-black world often feels like a race against time, Afro-Fabulations looks to the modes of memory and imagination through which a queer and black polytemporality is invented and sustained. Moving past the antirelational debates in queer theory, Nyong'o posits queerness as "angular sociality," drawing upon queer of color critique in order to name the gate and rhythm of black social life as it moves in and out of step with itself. He takes up a broad range of sites of analysis, from speculative fiction to performance art, from artificial intelligence to Blaxploitation cinema. Reading the archive of violence and trauma against the grain, Afro-Fabulations summons the poetic powers of queer world-making that have always been immanent to the fight and play of black life.
