Balancing Different Ways of Seeing and the Art of Le Guo
"The present volume is the product of a collaboration between the writer Stephen Baycroft and the artist Le Guo in which the latter’s visual artworks are revalued in relation to the discussions conducted in Western and Asian cultures from ancient times to the present day about the different ways of seeing used to produce visual artworks. The interweaving of the poetic processes used to produce visual artworks and the universal processes of unconcealing and reconcealing of the truthful patterns of an unknown reality are explored by revaluing how an artist’s poetic processes produced a visual artwork whose surface patterns envisaged these processes and gave those experiencing it an insight of different types of truths. Such truths enabled a human being to experience a new beginning by interweaving the patterns produced by the cyclical processes of his/her own individual ways of being with those of the Universal Way of Being/being whose continuous unconcealing as new patterns of human and non-human being constituted the endless new beginnings of the universe."--back cover.
An Introduction to Human Evolutionary Anatomy
An anthropologist and an anatomist have combined their skills in this book to provide students and research workers with the essentials of anatomy and the means to apply these to investigations into hominid form and function. Using basic principles and relevant bones, conclusions can be reached regarding the probable musculature, stance, brain size, age, weight, and sex of a particular fossil specimen. The sort of deductions which are possible are illustrated by reference back to contemporary apes and humans, and a coherent picture of the history of hominid evolution appears. Written in a clear and concise style and beautifully illustrated, An Introduction to Human Evolutionary Anatomy is a basic reference for all concerned with human evolution as well as a valuable companion to both laboratory practical sessions and new research using fossil skeletons.

Rites of Passage, Cultural and Naturalcultural Hybridity and 'Arachne: Rebirthing Dislocated Cultures'
The naturalcultural hybrid [Arachne-Damoah] in Arachne Rebirthing Dislocated Cultures was capable of a 'superhuman' level of 'alien' performance; in which this hybrid used an 'attention map' of linguistic records from 'past' historical time-spaces, to 'shamanically' acquire the trans-binary thinking and oracular power needed to open toward 'future' historical time-spaces in ways that rewove the social structures of, - and thus broke the mind-forg'd manacles of colonialist, imperialist and racist binary thinking in, - the culture(s) in which the coloniser and colonised subjects participating in this performance lived in the Chthulucene(...) Arachne-Damoah may be imagined not only to be the 'monstrous' and 'emergent' coevolutionary product of Damoah's AI-augmented use of synthetic biotechnologies to overcome her arachnophobia, thereby trespassing across the boundaries between - and thus interweaving, - a 'spider' being with her own 'human' being; but also to exemplify what [Donna J. Haraway] Haraway called the artistic 'fruit' of 'algorithmic code' and 'improvisational creativity', that 'lives enfolded in the materialities of global warming and toxic pollution'.
