Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

The Galapagos archipelago in the Pacific Ocean is a place of
extraordinary biodiversity, home to species found nowhere else on
Earth and synonymous with the discoveries of Charles Darwin. But it
is also a place of competing interests: those of the rare animals
and plants, the scientists who are trying to conserve them, the
settlers from Ecuador seeking a way to support themselves, and the
tourists who travel across the world to encounter the astonishing
environment. Galapagos is the result of a five-year artists'
residency programme set up by the Galapagos Conservation Trust,
working with the Charles Darwin Foundation, as a unique way of
highlighting some of the complex issues that relate to the islands.
Twelve international artists were invited to engage with the
Galapagos on their own terms, to mix with the local and the
scientific communities, to find inspiration for original new work
and eventually to share it with a wide audience. The artworks and
essays in this book prompt comparisons with other places in the
world that are beset by multiple demands. Artists: Jyll Bradley,
Paulo Catrica, Filipa Cesar, Marcus Coates, Dorothy Cross
(accompanied by Fiona Shaw), Alexis Deacon, Jeremy Deller, Tania
Kovats, Kaffe Matthews, Semiconductor (Ruth Jarman and Joe
Gerhardt) and Alison Turnbull.

An inventor living at the beginning of the Enlightenment keeps
journals reflecting on everything from his inventive lovemaking to
his discovery of the first binary code, caffeine stimulation, the
insanity defense, and the memory of birds. First published in 1996
to international acclaim, Eric Darton's Free City is the fictional
journal of L., a seventeenth-century inventor caught in a
precarious love triangle, even as his beloved northern European
port town teeters on the brink of catastrophe. In a tale laced with
bawdy humor and elements of the fantastical, L. must balance the
demands of his patron-a rapacious entrepreneur-against those of his
sorceress lover. As L. attempts to avert calamity, he finds himself
joined by the most unlikely of allies. Weaving together historical,
political and absurdist elements, Free City resonates more
profoundly today than ever.
This book is about money. Not about how to make money, but how to
use it and use it well. A range of stimulating articles from
leading international thinkers and writers forms a
thought-provoking collection on how we can all use money to achieve
positive social change.The range of topics discussed is broad, from
questions of economics and government policy, corporate and
individual responsibility to how voluntary organisations can ensure
that their money is used wisely.Issues raised include: Does the way
we use money betray the next generation? Is dishonesty within our
financial systems making it too difficult for consumers to make
informed decisions? Are we wasting money on good intentions that do
not match real need? How can individuals, foundations and others
with social concerns ensure that all their assets are used
effectively?
