Vermeer's Family Secrets : Genius, Discovery, and the Unknown Apprentice
Johannes Vermeer, one of the greatest Dutch painters and for some the single greatest painter of all, produced a remarkably small corpus of work.In Vermeer's Family Secrets, Benjamin Binstock revolutionizes how we think about Vermeer's work and life.Vermeer, The Sphinx of Delft, is famously a mystery in art: despite the common claim that little is known of his biography, there is actually an abundance of fascinating information about Vermeer’s life that Binstock brings to bear on Vermeer’s art for the first time; he also offers new interpretations of several key documents pertaining to Vermeer that have been misunderstood.Lavishly illustrated with more than 180 black and white images and more than sixty color plates, the book also includes a remarkable color two-page spread that presents the entirety of Vermeer's oeuvre arranged in chronological order in 1/20 scale, demonstrating his gradual formal and conceptual development.No book on Vermeer has ever done this kind of visual comparison of his complete output.Like Poe's purloined letter, Vermeer's secrets are sometimes out in the open where everyone can see them.Benjamin Binstock shows us where to look. Piecing together evidence, the tools of art history, and his own intuitive skills, he gives us for the first time a history of Vermeer's work in light of Vermeer's life. On almost every page of Vermeer's Family Secrets, there is a perception or an adjustment that rethinks what we know about Vermeer, his oeuvre, Dutch painting, and Western Art.Perhaps the most arresting revelation of Vermeer's Family Secrets is the final one: in response to inconsistencies in technique, materials, and artistic level, Binstock posits that several of the paintings accepted as canonical works by Vermeer, are in fact not by Vermeer at all but by his eldest daughter, Maria.How he argues this is one of the book's many pleasures.

The Unknown Warrior : A Personal Journey of Discovery and Remembrance
THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLER Chosen by WATERSTONES as one of their BEST HISTORY BOOKS for 2024 ‘Compelling… [Nichol has a] terrific eye for detail; an ability to blend tear-jerking letters, quotation and personal anecdotes into a rich, thought-provoking narrative’Daily Telegraph Over one million British Empire soldiers were killed during the First World War.More than a century later, over half a million still have no known grave. The scale of the fighting, the catastrophic destruction, the relentless military engagement and glutinous mud meant that many of the dead were never identified, of often, never recovered.Names were left without bodies, and bodies, or fragments of bodies, without names. To help staunch the tide of national grief in the aftermath of the conflict, an idea was born for a single 'Unknown Warrior' representing all the missing, to be brought from the battlefields and buried in Westminster Abbey alongside the nation's kings and queens. Using diaries, archives and interviews with the descendants of that generation and modern-day experts, Sunday Times bestselling author and former RAF Tornado navigator John Nichol draws on his own experience of combat and loss to shine light on this 100-year-old story. And in speaking to those who have lost loved ones in more modern conflicts, he examines our continuing need for a tangible resting place at which to truly grieve the fallen.His search for answers becomes a moving and personal journey, exploring the true meaning of camaraderie, service, sacrifice and remembrance.

Sweet Unknown
Just north of Philadelphia in the industrial town of Doylestown, PA hails the modern psychedelic indie-rock band Ceramic Animal. The band consists of three brothers: Chris Regan (vocals, guitar), Erik Regan (drums) and Elliot Regan (vocals, keys), along with Anthony Marchione (guitar) and Dallas Hosey (vocals, bass). The band initially appeared on the radar of producer Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys via a series of playlists, instantly causing a stir of interest from the founder of Easy Eye Sound records. He tracked them down and immediately started writing with the band, creating the foundation for the band's staggering fourth album, 'Sweet Unknown'. Having built a reputation for solid, independently-released albums and steady touring, Ceramic Animal was more than ready for this moment. Auerbach enlisted additional help from legendary GRAMMY®-winning songwriters Pat McLaughlin, Angelo Petraglia and Desmond Child, then got down to recording in Nashville at Easy Eye Sound. The album that transpired is pure and timeless sonic gold, with a tinge of dirty-blues sprinkled on it.

Does market research hinder innovation in business administration?
Market research does not necessarily hinder innovation in business administration. In fact, it can provide valuable insights into consumer needs and preferences, helping businesses to develop innovative products and services that meet market demands. By understanding market trends and customer behavior, businesses can identify opportunities for innovation and stay ahead of competitors. However, relying too heavily on market research without allowing room for creativity and risk-taking can limit the potential for groundbreaking innovations. It is important for businesses to strike a balance between leveraging market research and fostering a culture of innovation to drive success in business administration.

Unknown Soldier
The stimulus for these poems is a collection of photographs taken of the poet’s father, originally from colonial Sri Lanka, who was serving as a radio operator in an otherwise all white platoon in the 1939-45 desert war in North Africa.As for so many who came back from war to start or resume a family life, there was a great gulf of silence, an unwillingness to speak of those experiences.The collection begins and ends in an imaginative recreation of the life suggested in those photographs, many reproduced in this collection.There is connection with a much-loved father, but also a sense of the unknowable. Speaking in the voice of the father and of the unknown photographer, poems explore the mix of male camaraderie and casual racism of that experience, but also the deep affection hinted at in the way the photographer has framed “Snowball” in his lens.From this imaginative core, poems move out to make connections with the remembered and known life of a father who died too soon, to self-reflections on the poet as remembrancer, creator and actor in the world.There are moving poems on the meaning of inherited objects – a paper-knife, letters – and inherited ways of being – the birdwatching that provides a rich source of imagery.The personal moves out to the resonances of what was, in its origins, a story of migration.Here the father’s success in finding of a home in Yorkshire is seen to contrast sharply with the tragedies of migrant deaths in the face of fortress Europe. This is a work of great beauty, whose lucid simplicity of language is married to a rich complexity of structure and the bird-flight of images that connect poem to poem.There is humour, too, in the revenant voice of the mother who inserts herself into the poet’s memory and demands in her “broad Yorkshire vowels […] ‘Why is your dad getting all the attention?’”
