From the vaults of The SF Gateway, the most comprehensive digital library of classic SFF titles ever assembled, comes an ideal introduction to the fantastic work of one of the Golden Age's most influential writers, Henry Kuttner. Henry Kuttner sold his first story WEIRD TALES in early 1936 and was, with his wife, fellow writer C. L. Moore, a regular contributor to John W. Campbell's ASTOUNDING SCIENCE FICTION. He and Moore collaborated for most of the 1940s and 1950s, but his career was tragically cut short in 1958, when he suffered a fatal heart attack. This omnibus contains two of his major novels, which have been out of print for many years - FURY and MUTANT - and collection THE BEST OF HENRY KUTTNER. Format:Paperback

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 10 - 15 working days Hierdie titel is 'n verkorte weergawe van 'n tesis vir 'n D.Phil-graad wat in 2004 by die Universiteit van Pretoria verwerf is. Dit handel oor die geskiedenis van die koskultuur van die Europeers wat hulle in die sewentiende en agtiende eeu aan die Kaap gevestig het en deel van hulle nasate, die Afrikaners, gebly het. Tydens die genoemde tydperk is reeds begin om daarna as Boerekos te verwys. Die basiese uitgangspunt van die studie was om na te vors waar die oorsprong le van die koskultuur wat in die sewentiende eeu na die Kaap gekom het, wat die koskultuur behels het en wie daardie koskultuur aan die Kaap beinvloed het. Die stof vir die studie is derhalwe in drie grondtemas verdeel. Die historiese agtergrond handel oor invloede op die sewentiende-eeuse Hollandse kookkultuur wat aanleiding gegee het tot die noodsaak van 'n verversingstasie aan die Kaap, die vestiging van die Hollandse kultuur aan die Kaap, en die gemeenskap wat in die vestigingsperiode ontstaan het. Die tweede tema oor wat die koskultuur behels het wat die Europeers in die sewentiende eeu na die Kaap gebring het, word toegelig. Die derde tema wat gaan oor die invloed van Oosterlinge op die kookkultuur aan die Kaap, word ook bespreek. In die slot word gewys op bevindings wat die studie opgelewer het en 'n vlugtige blik word gegee op die verdere verloop van die koskultuur gedurende die Britse bewind, die Groot Trek, die Anglo-Boereoorlog, die tydperk van verstedeliking, die hoogtepunt van Afrikaner-nasionalisme, en die huidige tydsgewrig.

A sweeping, global history of the rise of the factory and its effects on society. We live in a factory-made world: modern life is built on three centuries of advances in factory production, efficiency, and technology. But giant factories have also fueled our fears about the future since their beginnings, when William Blake called them "dark Satanic mills." Many factories that operated over the last two centuriessuch as Homestead, River Rouge, and Foxconnwere known for the labor exploitation and class warfare they engendered, not to mention the environmental devastation caused by factory production from the beginning of the Industrial Revolution up to today. In a major work of scholarship that is also wonderfully accessible, celebrated historian Joshua B. Freeman tells the story of the factory and examines how it has reflected both our dreams and our nightmares of industrialization and social change. He whisks readers from the textile mills in England that powered the Industrial Revolution and the factory towns of New England to the colossal steel and car plants of twentieth-century America, Eastern Europe, and the Soviet Union and on to todays behemoths making sneakers, toys, and cellphones in China and Vietnam. The giant factory, Freeman shows, led a revolution that transformed human life and the environment. He traces arguments about factories and social progress through such critics and champions as Marx and Engels, Charles Dickens, Alexander Hamilton, Henry Ford, and Joseph Stalin. He chronicles protests against standard industry practices from unions and workers rights groups that led to shortened workdays, child labor laws, protection for organized labor, and much more. In Behemoth, Freeman also explores how factories became objects of great wonder that both inspired and horrified artists and writers in their time. He examines representations of factories in the work of Charles Sheeler, Margaret Bourke-White, Charlie Chaplin, Diego Rivera, and Edward Burtynsky. Behemoth tells the grand story of global industry from the Industrial Revolution to the present. It is a magisterial work on factories and the people whose labor made them run. And it offers a piercing perspective on how factories have shaped our societies and the challenges we face now. 30 illustrations by Joshua B.
