I’ve booked four seats for Friday’s concert.
The second, by a remarkable collection of photographs, some from the university archives and other sources and some specifically produced for the book.
The book makes good use of black and white photographs, has a useful appendix on methodology and an excellent bibliography.
The book is lavishly illustrated with photographs of items from the exhibit (always in full color) and other supporting material (in black and white).
The book includes numerous colour photographs, but many are not sharp or their colours are washed out.
Physically, the book's size is an awkward 10 inches by 7 inches.
Unfortunately, it is difficult in a short space to do justice to a book which already is a philosophical classic.
The book was in two parts, the first part philosophical, the second dealing with mathematics and the natural sciences.
A publisher who arrived late on the market or who miscalculated the demand for an ordinary, "mid-list" book could be punished with a heavy loss.
