The End of Print is the first collection of the work of David Carson, arguably the most innovative and influential graphic designer of the 1990s. Since the book first appeared in 1995, it has become one of the most popular graphic design books of the 20th century. Carson's approach to typography and layout has provoked praise and criticism worldwide, and has inspired a following of young designers eager to break with tradition and forge a new aesthetic. This revised and extended edition contains a significant number of new images from this key period in Carson's career. Two illustrated essays provide an overview of Carson's work, setting it in the context of graphic design history. They examine critical appraisals of the book and discuss the impact that Carson's work has had on contemporary graphics. The much-debated concept of the "end of print" is explored in new contributions from Douglas Coupland, Jessica Helfand, Rick Valicenti, Shawn Wolfe, Geof Kern, Jackson Boelts and Philip B. Meggs. The End of Print is illustrated with 400 colour images, and features work from the magazines where Carson first made his mark - including Transworld Skateboarding, Surfer, Beach Culture and Ray Gun - as well as his instantly recognizable advertisements for clients such as Nike, Pepsi, MTV and Sony. Lewis Blackwell's text includes an interview in which Carson examines the origins of his approach and discusses the extreme reactions to his work.

This book is an introduction to spirit clans, our most ancient spiritual roots. A spirit clan is your spirit mother and father - your original blessing that you carry inside you. A clan can be guided by an animal, a plant, a stone, an object, such as an arrow, or even a phenomenon, like fire. Knowing and understanding your clan will empower you, help carry you through life, and see you through difficult times. An introduction to spirit clans is presented along with an overview of shamanism and ways to discover your clan through dreams, visions, and meditation. Thorough explanations of the physical, psychological, and spiritual aspects of 75 clans are included, and stories, traditions, and descriptions of modernday clan manifestations lift the teachings off the page and into life.

2013 Oracle looks beyond 2012 with a powerful divination system, including 34 beautiful laminated cards, a colorful printed cenote cloth to contain and focus the oracular energies, and an illustrated book to explain and interpret the guidance of the ancients. In beautiful artwork by visionary artist G. Borri and David Carson's prophetic interpretations, users will find answers to guide them through the uncertainties ahead. Like the Medicine Cards, 2013 Oracle is based on the spiritual wisdom of the Native American ancestors. David Carson introduced us to our power animals through that popular deck; we can now go deeper into the Native American mysteries with the 2013 Oracle. This set, including a beautiful book, deck and cloth, immerses the seeker in the rich lore of the Mayans and mound builders. We access the cosmology around which they built cities of gold where they practiced highly advanced technologies based on mathematical and scientific knowledge beyond that of the Europe of their day, knowledge we are only now beginning to comprehend. 2013 Oracle marries the sacred information these ancient ones inscribed for us with a divination system that is a mirror of our internal truth. The voice of the oracle speaks across the centuries to lead us through the contradictions of our times. A Progression of New Light The coming world will be as different from our current one as day is from night. Ancient American geometricians and metaphysicians left descriptions of these dimensional shifts to help future generations. These learned ones understood that the evolution of the human was incomplete and that our species faced great wars, natural catastrophes and other hardships before humanitydeveloped the consciousness to enter the New Creation. 2013 Oracle is the ancient map left by the ancestors to help us make a leap into infinite possibility. Their knowledge was sculpted into stone and clay and laid out in the design of the cities and calendars. It was hidden within ritual and sacrifice. Clarity Born From The Light Dimensions overlap, one with another, and exist within sacred time. Ancient peoples saw the patterning and ... understood the true measure of time more deeply than any modern culture. Time is a living entity. Waves of time have personality and possibility Over the centuries, the numerical values twenty and thirteen became highly important, a sacred series based on the subtle energies of the cosmos. The sequencing of twenty and thirteen, or 2013, is the first year of the spiritizing of matter and time. 2013 is the dawn of the New Humanity.

The contributors to this book explore the role and importance of qualitative, interpretist research in the dynamic field of enterprise. They establish the link between the innovative nature of small enterprise and the need to utilise research methodologies, which are themselves innovative. The book highlights the fact that enterprise research has the advantage of sufficient youth as a research discipline to permit a wide scope for new and innovative research studies. Probing this unexplored terrain therefore requires exploratory research methods supported by inductive research techniques. These methods and techniques are examined in detail: topics covered are diverse, ranging from a review of quantitative research methodologies and the integration of methodological philosophies and approaches; to the application of two novel analytical techniques. Convergent interviewing, action research, case research and marketing research for isolated SMEs are all also explored in depth. This book will provide academics, researchers and students with a cohesive body of material on the use of interpretist research techniques in all areas of enterprise research.

Few things should go together better than psychology and law - and few things are getting together less successfully. Edited by four psychologists and a lawyer, and drawing on contributions from Europe, the USA and Australia, Applying Psychology to Criminal Justice argues that psychology should be applied more widely within the criminal justice system. Contributors develop the case for successfully applying psychology to justice by providing a rich range of applicable examples for development now and in the future. Readers are encouraged to challenge the limited ambition and imagination of psychology and law by examining how insights in areas such as offender cognition and decision-making under pressure might inform future investigation and analysis.

The second edition of this popular international handbook highlights the developing relationship between psychology and the law. Consisting of all-new material and drawing on the work of practitioners and academics from the UK, Europe, North America and elsewhere, this volume looks not only at the more traditional elements of psychology and the law - the provision of psychological assessments about individuals to the courts - but also many of the recent developments, such as the interaction between psychologists and other professionals, decision-making by judges and juries, and the shaping of social policy and political debate. Contemporary and authoritative in its scope, the second edition of The Handbook of Psychology in Legal Contexts will again prove to be a valuable resource for scholars and students, as well as being a vital tool for all professionals working in the field. * Well known editors and an international list of authors, most of whom are leaders in their field * Focus on psychological concepts and knowledge that will enlighten best practice and research * The focus on process and issues ensures that the book is not limited in interest by specific legal codes or legislation, it is international * More than an updating of the old chapters, really a rethinking of the field and what is now important and emerging
