Verse, Chorus, Monster!

By: Graham Coxon

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Among the noise and clamour of the Britpop era, Blur co-founder Graham Coxon managed to carve out a niche to become one of the most innovative and respected guitarists of his generation - but it wasn't always easy.Graham grew up as an Army kid, moving frequently in his early years from West Germany to Derbyshire and Winchester before settling in Colchester, Essex. A shy child, he had a thing for eating soil and drawing intense visions; his anxiety was tempered by painting and a growing love of music.These twin passions grew into obsessions, and as he honed his artistic skill at school, Goldsmiths and beyond, his band with school friend Damon Albarn, fellow student Alex James, and a drummer called Dave Rowntree began to get noticed.But there are things they don't tell you before you get famous. There are monsters out there. And some may even be lurking inside yourself.Verse, Chorus, Monster! is an intimate, honest reflection on music, fame, addiction and art by one of Britain's most iconic musicians.

Fragments of Parmenides

By: A. H. Coxon

This book is a revised and expanded version of A.H. Coxon's full critical edition of the extant remains of Parmenides of Elea-the fifth-century B.C. philosopher by many considered "e;one of the greatest and most astonishing thinkers of all times."e; (Karl Popper) Coxon's presentation of the complete ancient evidence for Parmenides and his comprehensive examination of the fragments, unsurpassed to this day, have proven invaluable to our understanding of the Eleatic since the book's first publication in 1986. This edition, edited by Richard McKirahan and with a new preface by Malcolm Schofield, is released on the 100th anniversary of Coxon's birth. This new edition for the first time includes English translations of the testimonia and of any Ancient Greek throughout the book, as well as an English/Greek glossary by Richard McKirahan, and revisions by the late author himself. The text consists of Coxon's collations of the relevant folios of manuscripts of Sextus Empiricus, Proclus and Simplicius and includes all extant fragments, a commentary, the testimonia, a complete list of sources, linguistic parallels from both earlier and later authors, and the fullest critical apparatus that has appeared since Diels' Poetarum Philosophorum Fragmenta (1901). The collection of testimonia includes the philosophical discussions of Parmenides by Plato, Aristotle and the Neoplatonists, most of which had been omitted by Diels. The introduction discusses the history of the text, the language and form of the poem, Parmenides' use and understanding of the verb 'to be', his place in the history of earlier and later philosophy and the biographical tradition. In the commentary Coxon deals in detail with both the language and the subject matter of the poem and pays full attention to Parmenides' account of the physical world. The appendix relates later Eleatic arguments to those of Parmenides.

Ready in Minutes, The Cookbook

By: Alan Coxon

We all want to eat healthy, fresh foods, and today we are keener than ever to focus on diet, balance, vitamins, GM-free and organic foods. In addition, the demands of a hectic business and social life can result in less time spent in the kitchen trying to attain these goals. Ready in Minutes is a collection of nutritious and mouthwatering recipes geared around the time it takes to cook them – from no-cook Prawn and Mango Salad, or Chilled Avocado Soup, to a 20-minute Thai-inspired Coconut and Chicken Broth, and 30-minute dishes such as Italian Parmesan Risotto and Poached Fillet of Beef with Pumpkin-Mustard Cream Sauce. Alan’s recipes feature influences from Asian, Mexican, Indian and Spanish cuisine, as well as the UK, USA, Europe and North Africa. The book also includes insights into ingredients as diverse as cheese, cherries and crab.

Organic Photochemistry

By: James Morriss Coxon,Brian Halton

In the decade after this book first appeared in 1974, research involving organic photochemistry was prolific. In this updated and expanded 1986 edition the authors summarise those classes of reaction that best illustrate the types of photochemical behaviour commonly observed for simple organic molecules. The different products obtained from compounds subjected to thermal and photolytic activation are explained with the aid of appropriate diagrams and mechanistic schemes. Where necessary, these are backed up by simple energy level profiles. Thus, theory and empirical data are interwoven to provide a firm basis which is aided by the generous basic references at the end of each chapter.

Laughter and Narrative in the Later Middle Ages

German Comic Tales C.1350-1525

By: Sebastian Coxon

In contrast to the vernacular literary traditions of France, Italy and England, comic tales in verse flourished in late medieval Germany, providing bawdy entertainment for larger audiences of public recitals as well as for smaller numbers of individual readers. In a sustained close analysis Sebastian Coxon explores both the narrative design and fundamental thematic preoccupations of these short texts. A distinctively performative tradition of pre-modern narrative literature emerges which invited its recipients to think, learn and above all to laugh in a number of different ways.

Ready-Made Investing

for busy young professionals – taking the worry out of managing your money.

By: Walter Coxon

The world of investing can appear frighteningly complex; a fog of jargon, littered with costly traps for the unwary. To the uninitiated it seems you need deep knowledge of the markets, and to dedicate hours each week if you want to do this yourself. Or you need to find a good advisor, which is not easy to do if you don’t have a lot of money to invest. But it’s not difficult to manage your own money and it needn’t take a vast amount of time. The key is investing in a ‘ready-made’ investment portfolio, where someone else has done the hard work of devising the right blend of investments. This book is for young professionals with busy lives, who don’t have time to faff with their investments. For people who want to save and invest properly, in a structured and well thought out way.

Sorting Data

Collection and Analysis

By: A. P. M. Coxon

The method of sorting is a flexible, easily-used (and enjoyable) technique well suited to exploring and mapping conceptual domains, to the study of subjective or folk-classifications, and to comparing existing classifications one with another. Originating in linguistics and psychology, sorting methods (also known as "own categories", and "pile-sorting") have diffused to a wide range of other social sciences. This book provides the first systematic introduction to the method of sorting and draws material from new and widely-scattered sources. It covers the collection and analysis of data, using free-sorting as the main focus, but includes other variants. Methods are provided for describing and comparing sortings, drawing on recent developments in partition theory and combinational analysis and for measuring their similarity. Appropriate methods are presented for the representation of both individual sortings and of the objects themselves: multidimensional scaling, correspondence analysis, and clustering techniques. Applications and available software are covered.

The Presentation of Authorship in Medieval German Narrative Literature 1220-1290

By: Sebastian Coxon

This book sheds light on the complexity of medieval German literary culture as it evolved in the course of the thirteenth century (c. 1220-1920) by analysing the attitudes of narrative poets towards the issue of authorship. It describes the various ways in which vernacular writers could address the theme of their own authorship within their literary works, and explores the tensions that arose between such authorial strategies on the one hand and their subsequent manuscript transmission on the other.

Worked Solutions in Organic Chemistry

By: James M. Coxon

This book illustrates and teaches the finer details of the tactics and strategies employed in the synthesis of organic molecules. As well as providing model answers to the problems, the book discusses, in detail, the reasons why particular strategies are chosen, and why, in given circumstances, alternative methods or routes may or may not be appropriate. As such it could be used as a stand alone volume for the teaching of organic chemistry with a modern and appropriate emphasis on synthesis. Extensive cross referencing to Principles of Organic Synthesis allows the two books to be used as companion volumes.

Approaches to the concept of Trans-Subjectivity

By: Dimitri Ginev,Ian Coxon,Vicente Huici,Andrés Davila Cegerén,Juan R Coca,Susana Gómez-Redondo

Usually, understanding of the world has been divided between objective and subjective. Phenomenology and Philosophy of language also included the intersubjective in this comprehension. Some researchers have detected needing to go further and study a broader concept. The study of trans-subjectivity seeks to fill that gap and delve into a novel concept.

Catch Up, Little Cheetah!

A Lift-the-flap Book

By: Michele Coxon

Mother Cheetah encourages her cubs to run fast, but the smallest one cannot keep up and decides to go exploring. She encounters ten interesting African animals, each one hidden behind a flap on the page. Two scary eyes peering from behind a flap belong to a harmless owl butterfly. There are several species of butterflies that scare off predators in this way. The theme of teaching cheetah cubs to run fast is well-chosen because cheetahs can only survive by outrunning their prey.

Alexander Calder

Performing Sculpture

By: Ann Coxon,Penelope Curtis,Marko Daniel,Thomas Fichter,Sérgio B. Martins,Vassilis Oikonomopoulos,A. S. C. Rower,Alex J. Taylor

An insightful new look at one of the 20th century's most celebrated artistic visionaries Alexander Calder (1898-1976) is one of modernism's most captivating and influential figures. First trained as a mechanical engineer, Calder relocated from New York to Paris in the mid-twenties where his acceptance into the city's burgeoning avant-garde circles coincided with the development of his characteristic form of kinetic sculpture. His early work Cirque Calder, which was presented throughout Paris to great acclaim, prefigures the performance and theatrical aspects that dominate Calder's pioneering artistic works and are situated as a primary subject of intrigue in this publication. Rather than simply refashion sculpture's traditional forms, Calder envisioned entirely new possibilities for the medium and transformed its static nature into something dynamic and responsive. Alexander Calder: Performing Sculpture provides detailed insight into that pioneering process through reproductions of personal drawings and notes. Also featured is new research from a wide range of renowned scholars, furthering our understanding of the remarkable depth of Calder's beloved mobile sculptures and entrenching his status as an icon of modernism.
