Gleaned from thousands of images, this book offers the best of
American print advertising in the age of the “Big Idea.” From
the height of American consumerism, bold and colorful campaigns
paint a fascinating portrait of the 1950s and ’60s, as concerns
about the Cold War gave way to the carefree booze-and-cigarettes
capitalism of the Mad Men era.Digitally remastered for optimum
reproduction quality, the ads burst with crisp fonts and colors, as
well as a sexy sense of possibility, beguiling their audience to
buy everything from guns to girdles, cars to toothpaste, air travel
to home appliances. At turns startling, amusing and inspiring, this
panorama of midcentury marketing is at once an evocative period
piece and a showcase of design innovation and advertising wit.

Helmut Newton (1920-2004) always showed a healthy disdain for the
easy or predictable, so it's no surprise that the SUMO was an
irresistible project. The idea of a book the size of a private
exhibition, with spectacular images reproduced to state-of-the-art
origination and printing standards, emerged from an open,
experimental dialogue between photographer and publisher. With the
SUMO weighing in-boxed and shrink-wrapped-at 35.4 kg (just under 80
pounds), Newton created a landmark book that stood head and
shoulders above anything previously attempted, both in terms of
conceptual extravagance and technical specifications. Published in
an edition of 10,000 signed and numbered copies, the SUMO sold out
soon after publication and quickly multiplied its value. It now
features in numerous collections around the world, including New
York's Museum of Modern Art. The legendary copy number one, signed
by more than 100 of the book's featured celebrities, broke the
record for the most expensive book published in the 20th century,
sold at an auction in Berlin on April 6, 2000 for 620,000 German
marks-about 317,000 euros. Now, this XL edition celebrates 20 years
of SUMO, the result of a project conceived by Helmut Newton some
years ago. Revised by his wife June, the volume gathers 464 images
and a new booklet that takes us through the making-of this
publishing venture-a spectacular tribute to the larger-than-life
Helmut Newton, now in a friendly format. Images (c) The Helmut

Key Words with Peter and Jane uses the most frequently met words in
the English language as a starting point for learning to read
successfully and confidently. The Key Words reading scheme is
scientifically researched and world renowned. Book 3c encourages
writing skills and introduces 36 new words such as 'rabbit',
'flowers' and 'train'. Once this book has been completed, the child
moves on to book 4a. The Key Words with Peter and Jane books work
because each of the key words is introduced gradually and repeated
frequently. This builds confidence in children when they recognise
these key words on sight (also known as the 'look and say' method
of learning). Examples of key words are: the, one, two, he. There
are 12 levels, each with 3 books: a, b, and c. Series a: Gradually
introduces new words. Series b: Provides further practise of words
featured in the 'a' series. Series c: Links reading with writing
and phonics. All the words that have been introduced in each 'a'
and 'b' book are also reinforced in the 'c' books.
On October 1, 1958, the world's first civilian space agency opened
for business as an emergency response to the Soviet Union's launch
of Sputnik a year earlier. Within a decade, the National
Aeronautics and Space Administration, universally known as NASA,
had evolved from modest research teams experimenting with small
converted rockets into one of the greatest technological and
managerial enterprises ever known, capable of sending people to the
Moon aboard gigantic rockets and of dispatching robot explorers to
Venus, Mars, and worlds far beyond. In spite of occasional, tragic
setbacks in NASA's history, the Apollo lunar landing project
remains a byword for American ingenuity; the winged space shuttles
spearheaded the International Space Station and a dazzling array of
astronomical satellites and robotic landers, and Earth observation
programs have transformed our understanding of the cosmos and our
home world's fragile place within it. Throughout NASA's 60-year
history, images have played a central role. Who today is not
familiar with the Hubble Space Telescope's mesmerizing views of the
universe or the pin-sharp panoramas of Mars from NASA's surface
rovers? And who could forget the photographs of the first men
walking on the Moon? This compact edition is derived from our XL
edition, which was researched in collaboration with NASA, and
gathers hundreds of historic photographs and rare concept
renderings, scanned and remastered using the latest technology.
Texts by science and technology journalist Piers Bizony, former
NASA chief historian Roger Launius, and best-selling Apollo
historian Andrew Chaikin round out this comprehensive exploration
of NASA, from its earliest days to its current development of new
space systems for the future. The NASA Archives is more than just a
fascinating pictorial history of the U.S. space program. It is also
a profound meditation on why we choose to explore space and how we
will carry on this grandest of all adventures in the years to come.
