Imagination and Convention

Distinguishing Grammar and Inference in Language

By: Ernest LePore,Matthew Stone

How do hearers manage to understand speakers? And how do speakers manage to shape hearers' understanding? Lepore and Stone show that standard views about the workings of semantics and pragmatics are unsatisfactory. They advance an alternative view which better captures what is going on in linguistic communication.

Levinas, Ethics and Law

Levinas, Ethics and Law

By: Stone Matthew Stone

Emmanuel Levinas's philosophy of ethics has frequently attracted attention amongst legal scholars, but he remains a divisive and often enigmatic contributor to this field. He has been read within contexts as varied as human rights, private law, refugee law, and on the nature of judicial reasoning. This book explores what unites such apparently diverse applications of his ideas, and in doing so considers the challenge of law's ethical relationship with the other. In addition to asking how Levinas's ethics can inform legal problems, the book also examines how the modern legal edifice has a deceptive tendency to close itself off from the ethical experience. In particular, literatures on biopolitics suggest that law is increasingly complicit in reductive determinations of how we understand ourselves and others. Levinas's most penetrating insight might not, therefore, lie in the law's instrumentalisation of his ethics, but instead in the way his ethics trace a human encounter that escapes law.

DeLorean

The Rise, Fall and Second Acts of the DeLorean Motor Company

By: Matt Stone

Glory, scandal, downfall, fame, and rebirth—discover the dramatic story of the rebel auto industry titan behind the stainless-steel-bodied, gull-winged sports car we all know and love from Back to the Future. The tale you thought you knew: DeLorean recounts the life and career of John Z. DeLorean, from his successful career with General Motors, where he was instrumental in launching the Pontiac GTO and jump-starting the ’60s muscle car phenomenon, to the founding in 1975 of the DeLorean Motor Company and its 1981 launch of the now-iconic sports car bearing his name. Although a decidedly American car and company, the DeLorean story blends an interesting cocktail of Italian design, British financial backing, and a built-from-the-ground-up factory in politically fraught Belfast. The story turns, beginning in 1982, as DeLorean is entrapped in a drug sting and the company goes into bankruptcy. Though John DeLorean was acquitted ultimately, the original DMC was done all too soon. After the Los Angeles drug-trafficking trial, John DeLorean worked tirelessly, for the rest of his life, to revive his car, his name, and his company—unfortunately with limited success. Unexpectedly, the DeLorean car gained a new following based on its starring role in the 1985 movie hit Back to the Future(and its two sequels). Since DMC’s bankruptcy in 1982, several entities have continued efforts to revive the brand for modern times, today’s marketplace, and new audiences. Rather than consignment to the dustbin of automotive history, the DeLorean has achieved pop-culture status and remains well recognized, with growing appreciation today. Dispelling common misconceptions about DMC, DeLorean gives you the complete story in one handsomely designed volume illustrated throughout with historic images, period ads, and contemporary photos. Whether you are a car enthusiast, automotive historian, or a pop-culture fan, you are sure to enjoy the ride.

The Art and Soul of Jason Stone

A Lifetime of Poetry and Art

By: Carol McGraw and Paul Stone Jr.

The Art and Soul of Jason Stone is a coffee table book of art created by Jason Matthew Stone throughout his life. It includes a few poems, as well. In the forward to his first book “A Stone’s First Throw ”, one of his uncle’s wrote in the forward, “Jason’s first volume was created between Jason's 17th and 24th years. Those years were times of great change stirred into a society steeped in materialism, wealth and comfort. For Jason and his peers, there were deep uncertainties and double standard confusing the search for meaning and mission in life. But when all was done and said, there arose theme in Jason's poetry. One is absorbed by its magical winds and warps which captivate the imagination while revealing a young man's struggle to maintain a sensitive self in a convoluted world. The sincerity of this poetry leads us to hope that as Jason Matthew experiences his future - Stone's First Throw precedes a next.” Unfortunately, Jason did not live to write the next book but he spent the next seven years painting, sketching and writing. The Art and Soul of Jason Stone depicts a sampling of his work. His art has the same captivating magic as his poetry. When writing or sketching, Jason’s talent just poured from his head to his hand in minutes. But if you take the time to look closely you will see that those few minutes came from a talent that can only be explained as a gift from God. During his short thirty one years of life Jason never had a creative block. From the time he was two, when he drew an exact likeness of Raggedy Andy as a gift for his great grandmother, to the day of his death he kept drawing and writing. This book is meant to be enjoyed and studied and enjoyed again.

Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock & Roll

By: Editors Rolling Stone

Completely updated with new entries and extensive revisions of the previous 1,800, The Rolling Stone Encyclopedia Of Rock & Roll is the authoritative volume on the world's music makers—from the one-hit wonders to the megastars. In 1983, Rolling Stone Press introduced its first Rock & Roll Encyclopedia. Almost two decades later, it has become the premier guide to the history of rock & roll, and has been selected by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame & Museum as its official source of information. Giving full coverage to all aspects of the rock scene, it tells the story of rock & roll in a clear and easy reference format, including complete discographies, personnel changes for every band, and backstage information like date and place of birth, from Elvis Presley to Eminem. Since the last edition, the music scene has exploded in every area, from boy-bands to hip-hop, electronica to indie rock. Here, the Encyclopedia explores them all—'NSync, Notorious B.I.G., Ricky Martin, Radiohead, Britney Spears, Blink-182, Sean “Puffy” Combs, Portishead, Fatboy Slim, Fiona Apple, Lil' Kim, Limp Bizkit, Oasis, Outkast, Yo La Tengo, TLC, and many, many more. The Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock & Roll, Third Edition includes all the facts, phenomena, and flukes that make up the history of rock. Accompanying the biographical and discographical information on the nearly 2,000 artists included in this edition are incisive essays that reveal the performers' musical influences, first breaks, and critical and commercial hits and misses, as well as evaluations of their place in rock history. Filled with hundreds of historical photos, The Rolling Stone Encyclopedia is more than just a reference book, it is the bible of rock & roll.
