The ArtsAugust 2009Terry Gilliam
by Peter Marks, Brian McFarlane, Neil Sinyard
Terry Gilliam presents a sustained examination of one of cinema's most challenging and lauded auteurs, proposing fresh ways of seeing Gilliam that go beyond reductive readings of him as a gifted but manic fantasist. Analysing Gilliam's work over nearly four decades, from the brilliant anarchy of his Monty Python animations through the nightmarish masterpiece Brazil to the provocative Gothic horror of Tideland, it critically examines the variety and richness of Gilliam's sometimes troubled but always provocative output. The book situates Gilliam within the competing cultural contexts of the British, European and American film industries, examining his regular struggles against aesthetic and commercial pressures. He emerges as a passionate, immensely creative director, whose work encompasses a dizzying array of material: anarchic satire, childhood and adult fantasy, dystopia, romantic comedy, surrealism, road movie, fairy tale and the Gothic. The book charts how Gilliam interweaves these genres and forms to create magical interfaces between reality and the illuminating, frightening but liberating worlds of the imagination. Scrutinising the neglected importance of literature and adaptation in Gilliam's career, this study also observes him through the lenses of auteurism, genre, performance, design and national culture, explaining how someone born in Minnesota and raised in California came to be one of British television and film's most compelling figures. ;

TelevisionSeptember 2004Terry Nation
by Jonathan Bignell, Andrew O'Day
This is the first in-depth study of the science fiction television devised and written by Terry Nation. Terry Nation was the inventor of the Daleks and wrote other serials for 'Doctor Who'; he also wrote the BBC's 1970s post-apocalyptic drama 'Survivors' and created the space adventure series 'Blake's 7'. Previously television science fiction in Britain has received little critical attention. This book fills that gap and places Nation's work in the context of its production. Using Terry Nation's science fiction work as a case study, the boundaries around the authorship and authority of the television writer are explored in detail. The authors make use of BBC's archival research and specially conducted interviews with television producers and other production staff, to discuss how the programmes that Terry Nation created and wrote were commissioned, produced and brought to the screen. The book makes an important contribution to the study of British television history and will be of interest to enthusiasts of Terry Nation's landmark drama series as well as students of Television Studies.

Humanities & Social SciencesDecember 2007Anglo–German relations during the Labour governments 1964–70
NATO strategy, détente and European integration
by Terry Macintyre
Speaking at West Point in 1962, Dean Acheson observed that Britain had lost an empire and had still to find a new role. This book explains why, in the following years, as Britain's Labour government contemplated withdrawal from east of Suez, ministers came to see that Britain's future role would be as a force within Europe. To this end, and in order to gain entry into the European Economic Community, a close relationship with the Federal Republic of Germany would be essential. This account of Anglo-German relations during the 1960s reveals fascinating insights into how both governments reacted to a series of complex issues and why, despite differences which might have led to strains, a good understanding was maintained. Terry Macintyre's innovative approach brings together material covering NATO strategy, détente and European integration, making the volume fascinating and essential reading for students and enthusiasts of contemporary British and German political history. This book makes an important contribution to what we know about Cold War history, and should help to redefine some of the views about the relationship between Britain and Germany during the 1960s. ;

Biography & True StoriesA Rendezvous to Remember
A Memoir of Joy and Heartache at the Dawn of the Sixties
by Terry Marshall & Ann Garretson Marshall
The true story of a soldier, a pacifist, and the woman who loved them both. Frustrated with the dating scene, Ann Garretson decided she couldn’t leave love to chance. So she set her sights on “The One”: her pen pal, Lieutenant Jack Sigg, a tank commander on the German-Czech border. In 1964, she skipped her college commencement to tour Europe with him, hoping to return as his fiancée. But a month into their rendezvous, her best friend, Terry, proposed marriage - by mail - throwing all their lives into turmoil. Jack offered the military life Ann had grown up with. Terry, a conscientious objector, would leave for the Peace Corps at summer’s end, unless the draft board intervened and sent him to jail. Her dilemma: she loved them both. Ann had to make an agonizing choice—a choice made all that much harder by her meddling parents, Terry’s passionate pleas, and Jack’s irresistible charm. A Rendezvous to Remember is an intimate portrayal of relationships in the early sixties, written by a young woman finding her way in a changing world and by the man who ultimately won her heart. Provocative and delightfully uncensored, this coming-of-age memoir is a tribute to the enduring power of love and family.

January 2017Selbstbewusstes Leben
Texte zu einer transformativen Theorie. der menschlichen Subjektivität
by Andrea Kern, Christian Kietzmann
Eine lange philosophische Tradition, die ihren Höhepunkt in der Philosophie des Deutschen Idealismus findet, vertritt die These, dass der Mensch sich grundlegend von den übrigen Tieren unterscheidet. Diese Position ist jedoch spätestens seit Darwin in die Defensive geraten, was vor allem daran liegt, dass ihre Anhänger oft genug nicht klar sagen können, worin die tiefe Differenz zwischen Mensch und Tier bestehen soll. Die in diesem Band versammelten Texte eint das Ziel, diese Differenz dagegen als eine Artikulation des Selbstbewusstseins derjenigen zu formulieren, deren Leben durch genau dieses Selbstbewusstsein einzigartig wird. Mit Beiträgen von u. a. James Conant, Andrea Kern, John McDowell, Terry Pinkard, Sebastian Rödl und Michael Thompson.

January 2021The Evolution of Cells, Third Edition
by Kristi Lew and Terry L. Smith
Some 3.8 billion years ago, in an era of churning seas and murky skies, a few chemicals combined under the right conditions, and life emerged on planet Earth. From that first cell, life progressed to a myriad of one-celled organisms, to organisms capable of photosynthesis, to multicellular organisms, to simple plant and animal forms, up to the complex life-forms we know today. The Evolution of Cells, Third Edition traces these developments and how they may have occurred, through the scientific study of fossils, relationships among organisms, biochemistry of current life-forms, genetic sequencing, and laboratory experiments. Readers will also explore the complexity of cells and the ways science is making use of internal cell mechanisms for new discoveries in sustainable energy sources, cleaning up pollution, improving the food supply, and treating disease.
