Once youve seen a George Tooker painting you wont soon forget it but Tookers life and work are not well known. This gap in American art history is splendidly redressed in this volume of lustrous reproductions and informative biographical and critical essays published in conjunction with the first Tooker retrospective in three decades. Born in 1920 Tooker has long been influenced by his love of literature passion for Renaissance art and spirituality. After finding a place within a circle of fellow gay artists and writers including Paul Cadmus Lincoln Kirstein and W. H. Auden Tooker left New York and the postwar action-painting vortex for Vermont where he still works in the unforgiving medium of egg tempera creating empathic haunting paintings of people literally or figuratively boxed in and isolated such as his most famous work Subway 1950 in which wary women and men navigate prisonlike halls. Sensitive to prejudice and injustice concerned with alienation and other maladies of the soul and critical of corporate culture Tooker describes his freshly germane work as protest paintings. Attuned to lifes mysteries sorrows and beauty Tooker is also a painter of light and love. E-124; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 144 pages . Clarkson Potter hardcover

Book Description: With Plato's Euthydemus Thomas Chance solves a longstanding riddle of Platonic studies. Thought to be an early immature work the Euthydemus has come across to scholars as lacking Plato's characteristic greatness. This apparent lack Chance argues is not a failure of the text but of scholarly perception. He advances a single thesis: that Plato deliberately presents eristic--contentious debate--as the antithesis to his own philosophical method. Once this thesis is accepted the "hidden" purpose of the Euthydemus becomes manifest: Plato has used the occasion of his dialogue to combine a brilliantly crafted parody of sophistic antilogy with a subtle yet forceful exhortation designed to persuade all of us to pursue virtue and to love wisdom. -- with a bonus offer--; 041101; Chance Thomas H.

rif. 115175Washington D.C. American Association for the Advancement of Science January 28 1949. . Offprint single leaf folded once; a fine copy. The rare offprint of the paper announcing the first cultivation of polio virus in cell cultures the breakthrough that made modern vaccines possible. After studying pathogenic bacteria for a decade Harvard Medical School microbiologist John Enders 1897-1985 turned his attention to viruses refining his culture techniques with the mumps before applying them to polio. 'Before this discovery scientists had been able to grow polio virus only in the nervous tissue of susceptible laboratory animals commonly monkeys in a painstaking process that yielded minute quantities of the virus. The work of Enders Weller and Robbins had the tremendous practical effect of enabling scientists to prepare large amounts of polio virus making possible the mass production of the Salk killed-virus vaccine and later the Sabin live-virus vaccine. The impact of their work however was not limited to the study of polio. Their culture technique gave researchers an invaluable tool for the study of other viruses; made viral research much less laborious time-consuming and costly; and sparked revolutionary progress in the field; America Association of Immunologists biography. Enders was responsible for 'one of the most gracious acts in the history of the Nobel Prize' refusing to accept the award when it was offered to him alone and insisting that his co-authors 'those who did the work' be recognised equally Rosen 'Isolation of Poliovirus - John Enders and the Nobel Prize' New England Journal of Medicine vol. 351 no. 1 October 2004.
