Neon signs turned North America's roadside into a luminous wonderland in the mid-20th century. These unforgettable depictions of exploding bowling pins, crashing cars, baton twirling majorettes, and lassoing cowboys were the fodder for legend and lore. Neon designer Len Davidson has captured their magic with over 350 photos of superb vintage signs. In the text, voices of neon sign makers, shopkeepers, photographers, and preservationists record their legends in words, while a definitive photo archive gives architects and sign artisans an invaluable resource. This volume is a treasure for all who have been captured by the spell of vintage neon.

"What constitutes a great sign? For me it's an elusive synchronicity of color, shape, typography, and iconography, enhanced by authenticity and eccentricity. Signs that have been maintained and still illuminate are always beguiling. The fragility of glass tubing continuously exposed to harsh Chicago weather makes the survival of an old sign a kind of urban miracle, deserving, at the least, of photographic preservation. Even the many that have outlived their functional glory days have their own visual appeal. Animated neon signs, working or not, are a special treat." Nick Freeman, from the Foreword Delight in Chicago's rich neon heritage with this full-color collection of gaudy, garish, and downright spectacular signs. From the far South Side to the Wisconsin Dells, Good Old Neon documents the familiar and the obscure, capturing in over 130 photos these fast-disappearing artifacts of a glorious era when brightly lit signs filled the urban landscape.

This book is your essential guide to getting to know the most interesting, rewarding and hip areas to stay in 50 cities around the world. Dive deep into an exciting new destination and discover the best little-known sights and things to do, plus the coolest places to eat, drink and shop to create unforgettable trips. For each of the 50 cities profiled in Secret City, we've swung the spotlight onto neighbourhoods where you can feel the rhythms of local life. Sometimes you'll find the city's most well-trodden streets are only a short distance away, but there's a well-concealed treasure: perhaps a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cafe in Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana, a historic jazz bar in Stockholm's Gamla Stan, or an unmissable brunch spot in Brunswick, Melbourne. Elsewhere, you'll discover neighbourhoods you might not know much about but should really consider staying in: Tokyo's grungy Koenji, barnacle-clung Wapping and Rotherhithe in London, and Staten Island's North Shore in New York City. For each neighbourhood, there are out-of-the-ordinary recommendations for eating, drinking, partying and where to delve into local culture. All of them are hand-picked by experts who know these cities inside out, and they're accompanied by maps to orient you in these exciting districts.

Manipulation written by Christian Coons and has been published by Oxford University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2014-07-01 with Philosophy categories.
In all groups -- from couples to nation-states -- people influence one another. Much of this influence is benign, for example giving advice to friends or serving as role models for our children and students. Some forms of influence, however, are clearly morally suspect, such as threats of violence and blackmail. A great deal of attention has been paid to one form of morally suspect influence, namely coercion. Less attention has been paid to what might be a more pervasive form of influence: manipulation. The essays in this volume address this relative imbalance by focusing on manipulation, examining its nature, moral status, and its significance in personal and social life. They address a number of central questions: What counts as manipulation? How is it distinguished from coercion and ordinary rational persuasion? Is it always wrong, or can it sometimes be justified, and if so, when? Is manipulative influence more benign than coercion? Can one manipulate unintentionally? How does being manipulated to act bear on one's moral responsibly for so acting? Given various answers to these questions, what should we think of practices such as advertising and seduction?
