 | The Artful Dodger by Nick Bantock
With sales of his GRIFFIN & SABINE TRILOGY surpassing three million copies, it's been said that Nick Bantock has created an original literary genre. Now he brings new meaning to the art of autobiography with THE ARTFUL DODGER: IMAGES AND REFLECTIONS, in which he infuses the tale of his professional and artistic life with warmth and wit. THE ARTFUL DODGER surveys the vast and varied territory that Bantock's work encompasses: from his English art-school days to paperback covers, pure abstract experimentation to pop-up books, GRIFFIN & SABINE to his most recent work. Bantock's own words lend a highly personal, often revealing, always entertaining angle to more than 350 resplendent images. As rich in life as it is in art, THE ARTFUL DODGER reveals the creative range of a modern graphic master. AUTHOR: Nick Bantock

 | Nietzsche by Rudiger Safranski, Shelley Frisch
Safranski`s book is a biography of ideas rather than of a man. By exploring the development of Nietzsche`s thought from his high-school autobiographies to the epiphanies of ECCE HOMO to his indelible mark on the thought of Heidegger, Foucault, and others, Safranski describes the history of powerful and lasting theories on God, the self, truth, and power.

 | Tesla by Margaret Cheney
Cheney's biography of one of the greatest inventors and scientists of the modern age restores Tesla's precedence as the true inventor of radio, as well as of other remarkable firsts such as the harnessing of alternating current, remotely guided weapons, florescent lighting, and the bladeless turbine. The biography illuminates Tesla's relationships with George Westinghouse, J. P. Morgan, Thomas Edison, Michael Pupin, Guglielmo Marconi, and Mark Twain. Cheney also explains the controversies surrounding Tesla's unusual methods of generating publicity and his unfulfilled explorations into controlling weather and the wireless transmission of electric power.
