Clarendon Press, Oxford, 1986. Hardcover in Dustjacket. Fine / Fine. Volume V shows a contrasting picture of eighteenth-century Oxford to that presented by Edward Gibbon in his Autobiography. A more balanced assessment has been long overdue. From detailed studies it is now possible to show that in most subjects Oxford had a reputation that was far from contemptible, and one that attracted foreign scholars in some numbers. Academic responsibilities were taken seriously and reforming minds were at work. Attention is given to the University's role in national politics, its social and administrative structure, and its relationship with the Church, as well as the full range of academic life and culture in eighteenth-century Oxford.

Smithsonian Books, 2004. Hardcover in Dustjacket. Fine / Fine. ANTARCTICA""In 1912, as the ill-fated English explorer Captain Robert Falcon Scott was leading his team back from their race to the South Pole, a six-member scientific team was stranded several hundred miles to the north.

Niggli Verlag, Zurich, 2000.

Whether he works with text, photography, video, artist books, installation, performance, or on public authorship pieces and processes, at the heart of Gerz’s practice is the search for an art form that can contribute to the res publica and to democracy.

Earthscan, 2006. Softcover. Signed by Author. City-making is an art, not a formula. The skills required to re-enchant the city are far wider than the conventional ones like architecture, engineering and land-use planning. There is no simplistic, ten-point plan, but strong principles can help send good city-making on its way. The vision for 21st century cities must be to be the most imaginative cities for the world rather than in the world. This one change of word - from 'in' to 'for' - gives city-making an ethical foundation and value base. It helps cities become places of solidarity where the relations between the individual, the group, outsiders to the city and the planet are in better alignment. Following the widespread success of The Creative City, this new book, aided by international case studies, explains how to reassess urban potential so that cities can strengthen their identity and adapt to the changing global terms of trade and mass migration. It explores the deeper fault-lines, paradoxes… Read More
