Capture Dynamics and Chaotic Motions in Celestial Mechanics $79.16 A classic, by one of the masters of the field. Belbruno found the almost magical low energy chaotic orbit that got the Hiten spacecraft successfully to the moon. This text has a beautiful general treatment of chaotic orbits, which are now of great importance both in the celestial navigation of spacecraft and in evaluating the threat of killer asteroids in near earth orbit. –J. Richard Gott, III, Professor of Astrophysics, Princeton University It is truly amazing to see how many new gems have been discovered recently in the classical three-body problem, which has led to theoretical delight as well as to practical applications in solar-system space flight. In this book we hear the story firsthand, from someone who has been instrumental in both aspects of these developments. –Piet Hut, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton This is a well-written book, the first one in the literature to combine modern and advanced theoretical results in celestial mechanics with practical methods used for understanding and designing the low energy trajectories of space missions. –Florin Diacu, University of Victoria This book stands alone in developing a rigorous theoretical framework to explore the complexities of motion within those portions of the system phase space where the small body is bound to the system but not necessarily to either of the large bodies. It establishes a comprehensive framework for a wide variety of research problems in solar system evolution and in space mission planning. Belbruno has tied together an extensive range of material into a logical construction. –Wendell Mendell, NASA Johnson Space Center |

Cunard’s Legendary Queens of the Sea $204.91 There are few names more redolent of the great days of transatlantic sailing than the trio of Cunard liners the Queen Mary, the Queen Elizabeth and the Queen Elizabeth 2. The first two, dating from the 1930s, represented the epitome of gracious traveling during the prewar years and in the immediate postwar period, whilst the QE2 represented a later generation, being constructed in the late 1960s. Whilst the first two have long since been withdrawn, although the Queen Mary still survives in California, the QE2 has recently been joined by a new Cunard vessel — the Queen Mary 2 — that is one of the largest passenger vessels afloat and even this is soon to be eclipsed by the construction of a further new vessel — the Queen Victoria — that is scheduled to enter service in 2005. Illustrated with both color and mono illustrations, the book explores the rich history of the liners in both peace and war, providing the reader with a fascinating account of these classic liners. |

Making It Big $25 How does one of Broadway’s most anticipated musicals end up folding its tent after just six months and with a potential loss of more than $10 million? In Barbara Isenberg’s behind-the-scenes account, readers follow step by step as Big, the musical struggles against nearly insuperable odds. The long-awaited stage adaptation of the popular Tom Hanks film was not to have an easy journey. Led by the highly-regarded Crazy for You duo of director Mike Ockrent and choreographer Susan Stroman, the show’s cast and crew had some very bad luck heading for Broadway with one of the most expensive, high-profile musicals in recent history. In this authoritative, insightful and readable journal, we go backstage as the $10.3 million production is cast, rewritten, rehearsed and performed, first in Detroit, then in New York. Doors are opened to high pressure rehearsals, passionate advertising debates, stern budget talks and endless rewrite sessions in out-of-town hotel rooms. Day by day diary entries report the high hopes and deep disappointments of Ockrent, Stroman, producer James Freydberg, playwright John Weidman, composer David Shire and lyricist Richard Maltby, Jr., as they take on blizzards, set glitches, indifferent audiences, even a convention of witches at their Detroit hotel. Maltby and Shire turn out 58 songs, leading lady Crista Moore has to learn 5 different opening ballads and leading man Daniel Jenkins has knee surgery just weeks before opening night. Postponed from fall, 1995, to spring, 1996, Big was pilloried in Detroit, then substantially reworked for Broadway. But by the time it arrived, Broadway had changed even more than it had. From the minimal competition expected at the start ofits odyssey, Big faced and was shunted aside by two of the most innovative and critically successful musicals of recent memory, Rent and Bring in ‘de Noise, Bring in ‘da Funk. Big became not an instant classic, but in the words of Julie Andrews about her own show, Victor/Victoria, egre |

Making of the English Working Class $25 Thompson”s book has been called controversial, but perhaps only because so many have forgotten how explosive England was during the Regency and the early reign of Victoria.

No one interested in the history of the English people should fail to read his book. –London Times Literary Supplement |

Taken by Surprise $24.95 This collection of classic and new writings on dance improvisation brings together 21 essays by prominent dancers, scholars and historians. Until now, discussion of improvisation in dance has focused mainly on the postmodern form known as contact improv. Taken by Surprise reflects the development of improvisation as a compositional and performance mode in a wide variety of dance contexts, including dance traditions from around the globe, such as Yoruban masked dance, Indian Bharatanatyam and flamenco. The book also includes a thoughtful look at computer-aided choreography, a discussion of recent innovations in tap dancing and a section on improvisation in everyday life. Combining primary sources with critical analysis, Taken by Surprise will serve as an indispensible companion to studio work in improvisation, and a much-needed supplement to twentieth century dance histories.

Gibbs, JR, Michelle Heffner Hayes, Carmela Hermann, Constance Valis Hill, Rachel Kaplan, Maura Keefe, Victoria Marks, Avanthi Meduri, Steve Paxton, Janice Ross, Karen Schaffman, Nancy Stark Smith, Ellen Webb, Ruth Zaporah. |

The Concise History of Woman Suffrage $27.44 The massive size of the original six-volume History of Woman Suffrage has likely limited its impact on the lives of the women who benefitted from the efforts of the pioneering suffragists. By collecting miscellanies like state suffrage reports and speeches of every sort without interpretation or restraint, the set was often neglected as impenetrable. In their Concise History of Woman Suffrage, Mari Jo Buhle and Paul Buhle have revitalized this classic text by carefully selecting from among its best material. The eighty-two chosen documents now include interpretative introductory material by the editors, giving researchers easy access to material that the original work’s arrangement often caused readers to ignore or to overlook. The volume contains the work of many reform agitators, among them Angelina Grimke, Lucky Stone, Carrie Chapman Catt, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Anna Howard Shaw, Jane Addams, Sojourner Truth, and Victoria Woodhull, as well as Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony, Matilda Joslyn Gage, and Ida Husted Harper. |
