If you're picking this book up fresh, consider that you've really stepped in something. Over 5 decades of research and writing several dozen books wound us up here, polishing up one very unique question. It was the one thing I hadn't expected to need an answer: why winners think and believe as they do. In this book, we'll call the winners "Wonks." Because they figure things out. They are constantly looking at every problem as an opportunity. Everything else before this answered how. What I do know is that it isn't linear from here on out. It's exponential. What I've uncovered and am about to tell you leads right back to a complete new world with infinite possibilities. Far from tying up loose ends, it opens massive flood gates of possibilities. That's the world you just inherited by opening this book. Lucky you. But let me first tell you the underlying secret to how Wonks ended up ruling the world...

He then pastes these pieces together to form new, original, imaginative pictures, to which Wonk has added intriguing, humorous captions."Word and image combine seamlessly to bring to life a fantastic world.

ISBN: 1946448656

Visually arresting and utterly one-of-a-kind, Sarah J. Sloat's Hotel Almighty is a book-length erasure of Misery by Stephen King, a reimagining of the novel's themes of constraint and possibility in elliptical, enigmatic poems. Here, "joy would crawl over broken glass, if that was the way." Here, sleep is “a circle whose diameter might be small," a circle "pitifully small," a "wrecked and empty hypothetical circle." Paired with Sloat's stunning mixed-media collage, each poem is a miniature canvas, a brief associative profile of the psyche—its foibles, obsessions, and delights.

There is so much detail to be captured in a face. Cicero (106-43 BC) said: "The face is a picture of the mind as the eyes are its interpreter." To capture a person's personality, there are many things to keep in mind, and the authors of FACES show us how to match up a personality with lighting, posing, and composition. Portraiture is truly an art, and this book dives deep into the details so that you end up with a gorgeous portrait that both you and your subject love. Not only is this book the most comprehensive title available on portraiture, but it contains stunning images. Each image is paired with a lighting diagram, a description of why the type of image was chosen, and then takes you through postproduction to put the finishing touches on. The authors also showcase a gallery of portraits by renowned photographers.
