Michael Craig-Martin
Bright, colorful and minimalist, Michael Craig-Martin's paintings and sculptures tackle the semiotics of everyday objects Michael Craig-Martin (born 1941) is an important figure in British Conceptual Art, and among the most influential artists and teachers of his generation. Since his rise to prominence in the late 1960s, he has moved between sculpture, installation, painting, drawing and print, creating works that fuse elements of Pop, Minimalism and Conceptual Art. His work transforms everyday objects--from buckets and ladders to sneakers, mobile phones and laptops--with bold colors and simple, uninflected lines. Renowned as an art educator, he has inspired generations of artists, most notably the Young British Artists (YBAs). This handsome book, the catalog of the largest exhibition of Craig-Martin's work to have been mounted in the UK, contains thought-provoking text by critics Michael Bracewell and Richard Cork and an illuminating conversation between the artist and the writer Carolina Grau.

The Minnesota Response
About the Book The Minnesota Response explains how Minnesota Extension responded to its mission and money crisis in 2004 with a sweeping restructuring. Breaking with 95 years of tradition, Minnesota Extension shifted from a county delivery model to a regional/county model. Regionalization, however, is the tip of the iceberg. Several other policies define Minnesota's new approach, including changes in funding sources, degree of specialization of the regional educators, more statewide program teams, development of business plans and public value statements, supervision of field educators by program specialists rather than geographic supervisors, new scholarship and promotion expectations, and new evaluation efforts. The Minnesota Response describes these policies and reports on their initial impacts on program quality, scholarship, access, and public support. As land-grant universities seek to rebuild programs based on 'best practices,' this book contributes valuable, experience-based insights into the choices available as Extension programs continue to evolve and respond.

He views his life as a chess game, in which he confronts various challenges head-on, usually ending with a checkmate in his favor. He describes his idyllic youth at family mill, in an area known as Bohemian paradise, talks fondly of his parents and gra...
Why We Fight
"Why are we willing to die for our countries? How can ideology persuade someone to blow themselves up? When we go to war, morality, religion and ideology often take the blame. But Mike Martin boldly argues that the opposite is true: rather than driving violence, these things help to reduce it. While we resort to ideas and values to justify or interpret warfare, something else is really propelling us towards conflict: our subconscious desires, shaped by millions of years of evolution.
