Book Description
Tiré du site de Book Works: "Jimmie Durham's "My Book, The East London Coelacanth, Sometimes Called, Troubled Waters ; The Story of British Sea-Power" is animated by a distinctive voice - amused, obstinate and exciting our curiosity - that negotiates our and its own worries about what a book ought to contain, in what order and for how long. In this book Durham looks at Englishness - posing the question "who are you?" to the (presumed English) reader. Durham's investigation takes on board the Angles, angling, a fossil fish, East Anglia, and East London, though this is not simply the place where the books itself was published but a town in South Africa, near which a coelacanth was caught in the 1950s. Durham writes that "if I could catch an East London Coelacanth in East London, England, I might somehow be helping resolve some of the residual problems of Anglish Imperialism." Photographs show Durham in various parts of the world, fishing or near water, and at different ages, and some other people with fish. These are accompanied with Durham's conversation-like texts combining to make a book that demands to be read and read again to unravel its riddle."

Book Description
From New York Times bestselling author Sam Kean comes incredible stories of science, history, finance, mythology, the arts, medicine, and more, as told by the Periodic Table. Why did Gandhi hate iodine (I, 53)? How did radium (Ra, 88) nearly ruin Marie Curie's reputation? And why is gallium (Ga, 31) the go-to element for laboratory pranksters? The Periodic Table is a crowning scientific achievement, but it's also a treasure trove of adventure, betrayal, and obsession. These fascinating tales follow every element on the table as they play out their parts in human history, and in the lives of the (frequently) mad scientists who discovered them. The Disappearing Spoon masterfully fuses science with the classic lore of invention, investigation, and discovery -- from the Big Bang through the end of time. Though solid at room temperature, gallium is a moldable metal that melts at 84 degrees Fahrenheit. A classic science prank is to mold gallium spoons, serve them with tea, and watch guests recoil as their utensils disappear.
