By some fortunate encounters and decisions, Adam Kerr found himself charting the seas of both the Antarctic and Arctic. This work was carried out first for the Falkland Island Government (now the British Antarctic Survey) and later for the Canadian Government. His period of charting polar seas was a core to much wider activity which involved the development of new navigational technology. In his later years, he worked as a Director of an international organisation that focuses on the safety and well-being of all those who work at sea. Throughout his career as a chart maker, he had parallel interests in fine art, recreational fishing and sailing. This book contains fascinating insights into what lies hidden beneath the polar seas in regions where temperatures sometimes drop as low as -62°C.

WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT AIDS COULD FILL A MUSEUMCuratorial ethics and the ongoing epidemic in the 21st CenturyWith over 40 contributors from around the world, this issue of On Curating wrestles with "forgetting", "seeing", "collecting" and "making" AIDS related culture in the 21st century, and the growing impulse to historize aspects of early responses to the crisis.Through academic essays, conversations, visual projects, reprints and personal reflections, a reader will be exposed to ideas, theories, images, and advice from artists, academics, activists, curators, writers and others around the ethics and practices of curating AIDS-related culture within the ongoing epidemic.Edited by writer, organizer and educator Theodore (ted) Kerr, WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT AIDS COULD FILL A MUSEUM is an important contribution to the vital conversation about HIV/AIDS-related culture that both centers the role of museums as sites for community, knowledge sharing, inspiration and healing, while also exploring their limits and future possibilities.With contributions byAbdul-Aliy A Muhammad and Louie Ortiz-FonsecaAdam Barbu and John Paul RiccoAlper Turan Avram FinkelsteinCarlos Motta, John Arthur PeetzCatalina ImizcozCharan SinghCharles Stephens with Naina KhannaDr. Manon S.

Adam speaks The story of Adam and Eve is known throughout the world. It is a tale passed down through the beginning of humanity that is believed by Christians, Jews and Muslims alike. There isn't much to it other than the creation of man and woman and the loss of paradise attributed to their disobedience in biting an apple from a forbidden tree. This book gives a detailed portrayal of the familiar story from the perspective of Adam. It tells of the relationship Adam had with God before and after Eve was created and before and after the fall as well. As a consequence to Adam's sin he is doomed to live many lives to witness the effect it has on mankind throughout history to the present day. Adam narrates significant events of history such as the fall of Satan, the first murder, the great flood and the origins of the Jewish, Christian and Muslim nations. Along the way he explains mysteries like creation, evolution, giants, dinosaurs, reincarnation and the spiritual laws that control the universe. As Adam tells his story he produces a scathing diatribe directed at organized religion with the passion only the one and only original man can muster. This story is thought provoking and entertaining and should appeal to fans of fiction and non fiction, believers, non believers and lovers of philosophy.

From the end of postwar Reconstruction in the South to an analysis of the rise and fall of Black Power, acclaimed historian Adam Fairclough presents a straightforward synthesis of the century-long struggle of black Americans to achieve civil rights and equality in the United States. Beginning with Ida B. Wells and the campaign against lynching in the 1890s, Fairclough chronicles the tradition of protest that led to the formation of the NAACP, Booker T. Washington and the strategy of accommodation, Marcus Garvey and the push for black nationalism, through to Martin Luther King, Jr., and the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s and beyond. Throughout, Fairclough presents a judicious interpretation of historical events that balances the achievements of the Civil Rights Movement against the persistence of racial and economic inequalities.
