Workplace Jokes
Did you hear the one about the supervisor and the new employee who bump into each other in a bar? Maybe, but maybe not. In either case, you can find it and a couple hundred other great workplace jokes in this new collection, the only one of its kind. You won't find working people as the butt of jokes here... it's more likely to be the boss, the banker, the yes man and the union-busting lawyer. The collection comes from 30-plus years of creating, collecting and collaborating on the part of the editor, a lifelong trade unionist, labor publisher and onetime gagwriter-for-hire. The book is broken into appropriate sections - Us and Them - with subcategories for most every workplace issue, ranging from wages to discipline to labor-management relations. As the book's subtitle says, only SOME of the jokes will get you fired, so try them out on your co-workers before you enter your employer's annual talent show!

Essays in Architectural Criticism
Preface by Kenneth Frampton Winner of the 1985 Architectural Critics Award for the best book published on architectural criticism over the past three years. Since the early 1950s, Alan Colquhoun's criticism and theory have acted as a conscience to a generation of architects. His rigor and conceptual clarity have consistently stimulated debate and have served as an impetus for the pursuit of new directions in both theory and practice. This collection of 17 of his essays marks a watershed in the development of architectural thinking over the past three decades, comprising a virtual "theory of Modernism" in architecture. In his earliest essays, Colquhoun concentrated on themes that for him comprised the modernist attitude in architecture - language, typology, and the structure of form. His stance since then has consistently been to try to relate these issues to current practice and to analyze the nature of architectural expression in relation to culture. Alan Colquhoun divides his time between England, where is is a principal in the firm of Colquhoun & Miller, and the United States, where he is Professor of Architecture at Princeton University. An Oppositions Book.
