THE WORLD OF URBAN DECAY 2 Martin ten Bouwhuijs • Abandoned churches, hospitals, morgues, farms, monasteries, and castles across Eastern and Western Europe • 150 images with descriptions of the adventures experienced when the places were visited • Take nothing but pictures and leave nothing but footprints When exploring the remains of forgott en buildings and abandoned lots in Eastern and Western Europe, a sign with “Trespassers will be prosecuted!” is usually what you’ll fi nd outside. Imposing, seemingly lifeless structures—some abandoned for more than 25 years—including churches, mortuaries, factories, hospitals, swimming pools, and more, become reanimated in this series of arresting, sensually provocative images.

Surreal angles, from bott oms of stairwells in vacant sanatoria, and in an unsupervised Swedish junkyard, bring the photography to life and keep the interest in this urban expedition at a thrilling peak. Martin ten Bouwhuijs was born in 1965 in Enschede, the Netherlands. He started his hobby, urban exploring, aft er he saw a report about the subject on TV, and he continues to look for abandoned buildings, hoping for beautiful pictures.

Maido (my dough, not to be confused with that childhood favorite, Play-Doh) describes the most common Japanese gestures and defi nes theirmeanings and the cultural contexts that surround them. Japanese gestures are a world of their own, much the way the language and country are. In the Kansai region of Japan, people oft en use the term Maido as a greeting in business and sales, and as a send-off to a business’s best customers as if to say, “come again” or “thank you.” In this case, Maido is welcoming you to a world in which you don’t off end every Japanese person you meet. By learning a few simple gestures you can avoid making intercultural slip-ups and win the respect of locals. And who knows—maybe the next time you walk into the local izakaya (watering hole), you may be lucky enough to hear someone saying, “Maido! Maido!” to you. Raised in Japan on a US military base, Christy Colón Hasegawa was fascinated and at times entertained by how the gestures her father used didn’t always translate to her mom and the Japanese side of the family. She is a producer for advertising agency Sid Lee and lives in the Netherlands. Size: 6" x 9" • 76 color photos • 134 pp. ISBN: 978-0-7643-5267-6 • soft cover • $12.99 AVAILABLE IN NOVEMBER

Scott , jazz-fusion players Frank Gambale and Carl Verheyen, prog-rockers Steve Hackett and Martin Barre, and singer-songwriters Bruce Cockburn and Richie Furay.

Unassuming late guitarist Paul Yandell described his career not as one of celebrity but as sideman, the musician that audiences hear while they’re focused on the star.

• Explores the deeper philosophical, ethical, and mythological meanings of the Harry Potter series • A comprehensive refl ection on all seven Harry Potter novels • Shows deeper meaning and profound implications hidden just below the surface of the story

Th is book takes a look at the arc of the storyline in Harry Pott er, digging below the surface to explore ethical, mythological, and religious meanings in J.K. Rowling’s best-selling series. Why do we fi nd ourselves so intrigued with the tale of Harry Pott er? Many of the millions who passionately read the Harry Pott er series found they could relate to the details, dreams, and fears of Harry’s life.

She tackles issues of grief, responsibility, individual excellence, and heroism in the face of violence and corruption. Th is philosophical analysis shows that if, in fact, we do fi nd ourselves refl ected in Harry’s story, then we may also fi nd that our destiny and individual potential resonates with his as well.

THE ART OF THE MURA L VOLUME 1: A Contemporary Global Movement Shane Pomajambo, Foreword by Carlo McCormick

• Part 1 of a series covering the world's most infl uential muralists • 50 muralists with nearly 400 photos of staggering murals and statements by the artists themselves • Features a foreword by New York art and culture critic Carlo McCormick

Th is fi rst installment in a four-part series isa celebratory tour of some of the most vibrant, impressive, contemporary mural art in the world. Fift y artists from six continents share nearly 400 examples of their best work and a litt le bit about their own lives and journeys as muralists. Th e criteria for inclusion in the book was simple: the artists had to be full-time muralists who push the boundaries of the art form and engage with the medium as a vital social concept. Many of these artists don't have homes; they travel the globe, entering foreign communities and cultures, and fi nd shelter from hosts of festivals or art lovers. It's this dedication to their craft that sets this breed of artists apart from traditional artists, such as painters and sculptors, but their level of commitment is also what bridges the worlds of fi ne art and street art.
