Metal Box
John 'Johnny Rotten' Lydon formed Public Image Limited after quitting the Sex Pistols. Their first three albums - First Edition, Metal Box and Flowers of Romance - were as original as any ever issued and the group's style and sound utterly unique. Lydon's confrontational approach led to riots at gigs and more tabloid outrage and his music, through Public Image Limited, assured him a place in the roster of modern music's most influential figures.
The Rise and Fall of the Police Box
The police boxes have an interesting history. The 'hey days' for the police box were the years between the 1920s and 1960s when a large proportion of the many police forces, that existed at the time, introduced some form of communication from the street for both police officers and the public to use. This book describes this aspect of policing.
The Dark Box
Would you tell your deepest secrets to a relative stranger? And if you did, would you feel vulnerable? Cleansed? Or perhaps even worse than you did before? Confession has always performed a complex role in society, always created mixed feelings in its practitioners. As an acknowledgement of sinfulness, it can provide immense psychological relief; but while aiming to replace remorse with innocence, its history has become inextricably intertwined with eroticism and shame. The Dark Box is an erudite and personal history; Cornwell draws on his own memories of Catholic boyhood, and weaves it with the story of confession from its origins in the early church to the current day, where its enduring p...
The Art of Film
John Box had one of the most continuously productive design careers in British cinema, winning a record for Academy Awards and four BAFTAs. After learning his craft in the 1950s, he shot to fame with Lawrence of Arabia (1962). Directors from David Lean and Carol Reed to Norman Jewison and Michael Mann have valued his experience, as he brought `a vocabulary of life' to bear on the new challenges posed by each film. Whether creating Chaina in Wales for The Inn of the Sixth Happiness (1958), revolutionary Russia in Spain for Dr. Zhivago (1965), or Dickensian London for Oliver! (1968), imagining the mythic past in First Knight (1995) or the future in Rollerball (1975). Box shaped screen worlds across five decades, helping to establish the traditions of British production design which continue today. His greatest wish was that his career should encourage others by example. Based on interviews with John Box and the co-operation of some of his key collaborators, this lavishly colour-illustrated book focuses on solutions to design problems and provides a unique insight into the production designer's role in the collaborative business of filmmaking. --Book Jacket.
The Silver Box
"The Silver Box" by John Galsworthy is a thought-provoking social drama that explores themes of justice, class, and morality in early 20th-century England. Set in the bustling city of London, the play follows the story of a working-class family, the Jordans, who become embroiled in a scandalous legal case when their son, John, is accused of theft. At the heart of the play is the titular silver box, a symbol of the vast economic disparities and social inequalities that divide the characters along class lines. As the case unfolds, the play exposes the hypocrisy and corruption of the legal system, revealing how wealth and privilege can influence the course of justice.

Box and Cox : A Romance of Real Life in One Act. ox. I say, sir! Cox. Well, sir? Box. What’s your opinion of duelling, sir? Cox. I think it’s a barbarous practice, sir. Box. So do I, sir. To be sure, I don’t so much object to it when the pistols are not loaded. Cox. No: I dare say that does make some difference. Box. And yet, sir—on the other hand—doesn’t it strike you as rather a waste of time, for two people to keep firing pistols at one another, with nothing in ’em? Cox. No, sir—not more than any other harmless recreation. Box. Hark ye! Why do you object to marry Penelope Ann? Cox. Because, as I’ve observed already, I can’t abide her. You’ll be very happy with her.
