Dan Graham

Dan Graham

MIT Press
2011
pokkari
A collection of essays on a key figure in postminimalist art, with texts spanning thirty years. Since the 1960s, Dan Graham's heterogeneous practice has touched on such disparate subjects as tract housing, the Shakers, punk music, and architectural theory; he has made videos, architectural models, closed-circuit installations, and glass pavilions. Graham, who came of age during the emergence of earth art, minimalism, and conceptualism, has situated his work on the borders between these different strains of contemporary practice. Although varying widely in subject and medium, Graham's artwork and writings display a consistent interest in spectatorship, public-private relationships, and the constructed environment. Graham's extensive writings on his own work (collected in Rock My Religion and Two-Way Mirror Power, both published by the MIT Press) have made him, by default, the primary interpreter of his own art. This October Files volume provides a counterweight, gathering key texts by critics and theorists that offer alternative accounts of Graham's art. The essays span thirty years and include hard-to-find texts from exhibition catalogs and journals. The authors include such distinguished theorists, critics, and artists as Benjamin H. D. Buchloh, Beatriz Colomina, Thierry de Duve, and Jeff Wall.

The Billy Graham Story

The Billy Graham Story

John Charles Pollock

Zondervan

nidottu
An updated account of the inspiring and influential life of Dr. Billy GrahamWhen the hijacked planes slammed into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001, President Bush immediately proclaimed a National Day of Prayer and Remembrance. For the interfaith, interdenominational service at the Washington National Cathedral he chose Billy Graham to give the address. At that terrible hour no other clergyman, whatever his office, could so aptly bring the Word of God to America—and a watching world.At eighty-four, Billy Graham remains one of the most respected people in the world today. He has addressed over eighty-two million people face to face and at least one billion people through television, radio, and satellite. Yet he is far more than an evangelist of integrity and vision; he is a Christian statesman whose profound influence on the growth and depth of Christianity across the world cannot be overestimated. This official biography of Dr. Graham is based on his private files, correspondence, and interviews, as well as the author’s widespread research.• Written by John Pollock, Dr. Graham’s official biographer• Parts one and two (1918 to 1978), based on Pollock’s authorized biographies, have been abridged and contain new material• Part three (1978 to 1983) deals at length with Dr. Graham’s controversial visit to Moscow, which can now be seen as a factor in the fall of communism• Part four (1984 to 2003) updates the story to recent events, including the horrors of September 11 and the honorary knighthood Dr. Graham received from the Queen of England in December 2001• 8-page section of black-and-white photos new to this book

"The sillier the market's behavior, the greater the opportunity for the business-like investor. Follow Graham and you will profit from folly rather than participate in it."—Warren E. Buffett. "[Graham] is the genius who literally created the framework for investment analysis that leads to successful investing. Like that other genius Edison, Graham created light where there was none." —Bill Ruane, Sequoia Fund. "It's never the wrong time to invoke the name of Benjamin Graham, value investor par excellence." —Money "The search for intelligent investing should begin with the remarkable Benjamin Graham's timeless teachings. Read Lowe's book and you'll learn to seek what the original master sought as she helps Graham reclaim his rightful place as the most important and extraordinary investment writer of any generation."—Kenneth Lee, author of Trouncing the Dow. Known as the "father of value investing," Benjamin Graham was—and is—one of America's most lauded financial thinkers. Billionaire investor Warren Buffett, a former student of Graham, extols him to this day. Brilliant, successful, and ethical, he revolutionized investment philosophy by introducing the concepts of security analysis, fundamental analysis, and value investing—theories that have become timeless essentials of the field. Now, Janet Lowe, author of Benjamin Graham on Value Investing and Warren Buffett Speaks, reintroduces the foundations of Graham's eminence—including his ever-relevant market observations and his assessment of long-term economic problems—by presenting a unique compilation of his writings that contains rare and/or previously unpublished articles, lectures, and interviews. Almost twenty-five years after his death, Benjamin Graham continues to have one of the largest and most loyal followings of any investment philosopher of this century. A prolific and popular writer whose trademark was blending original ideas with wit and intelligence, he has guided and inspired Wall Street professionals with his thoughtful ruminations and piercing insights on a host of investment and economic topics. Though bits and pieces of this material are widely quoted even today, the full writings have not always been easy to find—until now. The result of in-depth research, The Rediscovered Benjamin Graham brings together the very best the investment legend had to offer, including such incisive works as: *"Inflated Treasuries and Deflated Stocks: Are Corporations Milking Their Owners?" *"The Ethics of American Capitalism". *"Proposals for an International Commodity-Reserve Currency". *"The New Speculation in Common Stocks". *"Is American Business Worth More Dead Than Alive?". *"The Simplest Way to Select Bargain Stocks". A groundbreaking volume that fills an important niche in investment literature, The Rediscovered Benjamin Graham is destined to become as timeless a classic as its distinguished subject.

Reviews of A Modern Approach to Graham and Dodd Investing "What happened in the market? What lies ahead? Investors should be required to read Tom Au’s A Modern Approach to Graham and Dodd Investing. Tom delivers a commonsense road map for baby boomer professional and individual investors navigating the treacherous investment waters. This is the best investment book I have read in twenty-three years." –Scott Kingsley Swift, Vice President, Merrill Lynch, CFM "Many times I’ve found myself reading through investment classics, wishing that they were more relevant to our present world; the information companies report, market conditions, today’s business culture, and the expectations modern stock investors have developed based on a large set of alternative investment choices. Finally, my wish, and those of other investors who’ve felt the same, has been granted by Thomas Au and his soon-to-be classic, A Modern Approach to Graham and Dodd Investing." –Marc H. Gerstein, Director of Investment Research, Reuters "In an age of easy money and easy credit, Thomas Au’s A Modern Approach to Graham and Dodd Investing reminds us that successful investing is a product of long-term prudent strategies based on disciplined investment decisions. This work is an excellent and timely in-depth analysis on value investing which is a must read, particularly during these volatile financial times." –David Marshall, President, Emerson Partners, LLC "This is an informative, readable book that presents a comprehensive framework for practitioners of deep value investing. Thomas Au, a proven investor in the value world, shows that the principles of value investing can be applied to a broad range of investment issues from analyzing the key line items on the corporate balance sheet to international investing and dynamic asset allocation. Au’s underlying message is that value investors have long time horizons, both in looking back at historical precedents and in looking forward, well beyond the next quarterly earnings report. Most importantly, the book is filled with real-time, real-world examples where Au applied the value approach to construct a winning portfolio. Au is gold!" –Leland Crabbe, Portfolio Manager, Credit Suisse Asset Management "A refreshing look at the methods for ensuring a margin of safety in one’s investments developed by one of the true masters. Sadly, in this liquidity-driven bubble market, investors have once again lost their way. This book will grow in acknowledgement as today’s stock market ‘sheep’ are once again led to their slaughter for having ignored such wisdom." –Richard J. Greene, Thunder Capital Management "Tom Au’s update of Graham and Dodd’s security analysis is a must read for any serious investor. With the technology bubble behind us, investors have come back to the proven principles of value investing. Tom has put together a powerful framework for value investing in the twenty-first century." –Gerard Watson, Managing Director, Santander Investments

The Legacy of Billy Graham

The Legacy of Billy Graham

Westminster/John Knox Press,U.S.

Perhaps no individual has had more of an effect on twentieth-century American Christianity than the renowned evangelist Billy Graham, whose work has been widely influential in arenas from the rising evangelical movement to the White House. Although Graham's influence on evangelicalism has long been recognized, Michael G. Long's The Legacy of Billy Graham is the first book to examine his impact on mainline Christianity and on American civil religion. With noted contributors including John B. Cobb Jr., Harvey Cox, Gary Dorrien, Karen Lebacqz, Thomas G. Long, Mark Lewis Taylor, and J. Philip Wogaman, this critical but generally appreciative volume assesses Graham's career from the perspectives of preaching and theology, social issues, and his engagement with his contemporaries and then concludes with two retrospectives on his legacy.

Framley Parsonage: Introduction by Graham Handley

Framley Parsonage: Introduction by Graham Handley

Anthony Trollope

Everyman's Library
1994
sidottu
In the course of last century, Anthony Trollope's fictional county of Barset has become one of English literature's most 'real', most celebrated landscapes. Framley Parsonage--the fourth of his engrossing Barsetshire novels--concerns itself with the drastic misjudgements of an amiable but naive and overly ambitious young clergyman. Through its shrewd and excellent social comedy and subtle, sometimes wicked, grasp of political and ecclesiastical manoeuvering, Trollope brings a whole local universe to convincing and triumphant life.
