Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. The original 1818 text of Mary Shelley's classic novel, with annotations and essays highlighting its scientific, ethical, and cautionary aspects.Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has endured in the popular imagination for two hundred years. Begun as a ghost story by an intellectually and socially precocious eighteen-year-old author during a cold and rainy summer on the shores of Lake Geneva, the dramatic tale of Victor Frankenstein and his stitched-together creature can be read as the ultimate parable of scientific hubris. Victor, the modern Prometheus, tried to do what he perhaps should have left to Nature: create life. Although the novel is most often discussed in literary-historical terms--as a seminal example of romanticism or as a groundbreaking early work of science fiction--Mary Shelley was keenly aware of contemporary scientific developments and incorporated them into her story. In our era of synthetic biology, artificial intelligence, robotics, and climate engineering, this edition of Frankenstein will resonate forcefully for readers with a background or interest in science and engineering, and anyone intrigued by the fundamental questions of creativity and responsibility. This edition of Frankenstein pairs the original 1818 version of the manuscript--meticulously line-edited and amended by Charles E. Robinson, one of the world's preeminent authorities on the text--with annotations and essays by leading scholars exploring the social and ethical aspects of scientific creativity raised by this remarkable story. The result is a unique and accessible edition of one of the most thought-provoking and influential novels ever written.Essays byElizabeth Bear, Cory Doctorow, Heather E. Douglas, Josephine Johnston, Kate MacCord, Jane Maienschein, Anne K. Mellor, Alfred Nordmann.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: fine. Fine in fine dust jacket. Hardcover. xxxii+720 pp. with index.

They provided views into Willcox's Detroit childhood, his cadetship at West Point, his service in the Mexican War, the Civil War, and his post-Civil War experiences in the West.

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. A principios de los años sesenta, Harvey Pekar era crítico de jazz y coleccionista de discos viejos para redondear sus ingresos mensuales. Conoce entonces a Robert Crumb y descubre el cómic underground norteamericano. Fascinado por las posibilidades que ofrece el medio, desarrolla unos cuantos años más tarde un proyecto de cómic autobiográfico e, incapaz de dibujarlo, convence a Crumb y a dos dibujantes de Cleveland, Gary Dumm y Greg Budgett, para que ilustren las primeras historietas. En 1976, decide autoeditar su muy pronto mítica serie,American Splendor, en la que participarán algunos de los miembros de la élite de la escena independiente norteamericana. La serie recibió el prestigioso American Book Award en 1987. American Splendor fue adaptada al teatro en 1985 y 1990 y finalmente llevada al cine en 2003, recibiendo el Gran Premio del Festival de Sundance. En American Splendor Harvey Pekar describe la vida cotidiana de la clase media norteamericana, a través de su propia experiencia como archivero en un hospital público de Cleveland y de sus agitadas relaciones sentimentales, sin ocultar su carácter colérico y sus episodios maniacodepresivos. Realiza igualmente el retrato de los personajes que se va encontrando que culmina en un fresco de Cleveland, ciudad industrial afectada profundamente por la crisis de los años setenta. Al entrar en escena, Harvey Pekar, antihéroe de una América desencantada después del shock de Vietnam, revoluciona el medio y crea la primera serie de cómic autobiográfico que tendrá una gran influencia en los autores posteriores. Este último volumen de la antología consagrada a la serie de Pekar cubre los años de 1993 a 2004. Pekar describe aquí su combate contra un cáncer linfático a principios de los noventa, sus conflictos con su última mujer, Joyce Brabner, su jubilación, pero también su consecución de la notoriedad a partir del estreno de la película American Splendor, con la elocuencia que le caracteriza. Las historietas de este volumen han sido escritas por Harvey Pekar y dibujadas por una pléyade de autores como Gary Dumm, Frank Stack, Joe Sacco, Jim Woodring, Robert Crumb, Ed Piskor y Gerry Shamray *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
