Each known Easter egg is documented with invoice records, correspondence, provenance and correspondence.
History of CERN, III
The present volume covers the story of the history of CERN from the mid 1960s to the late 1970s. The book is organized in three main parts. The first, containing contributions by historians of science, perceives the laboratory as being at the node of a complex of interconnected relationships between scientists and science managers on the staff, the users in the member states, and the governments which were called upon to finance the organization. Parts II and III include chapters by practising scientists. The former surveys the theoretical and experimental physics results obtained at CERN in this period, while the latter describes the development of the laboratory's accelerator complex and Charpak detection techniques.
Fabergé
A ce jour plus de 3000 livres ont été publiés sur Carl Fabergé, la plupart d'auteurs se contentant de répéter systématiquement les mêmes choses et de mentionner les mêmes légendes et histoires. La majorité de ces ouvrages se basent sur les informations fournies par Eugène Carlovich Fabergé dans les années 30 ou H.C. Bainbridge, le premier à avoir écrit une biographie sur Carl Fabergé en 1949. L'incapacité d'acquérir du matériel conséquent avait comme impact auprès des érudits qu'ils ne pouvaient pas vérifier leur travail. Des lettres écrites par le Tsar, des factures Fabergé, des documents du Cabinet ou des inventaires des Bolcheviks ont été cachés en Russie depu...
Fabergé Eggs
This work presents detailed technical descriptions of 66 Faberge eggs, as well as the stories of people involved in their making or presentation.
Marketing Luxury Services
This textbook discusses luxury marketing management, considering the broader range of decisions related to the complexities of offering luxury as services. Placing a strong emphasis on strategy as well as positioning and the market, it focuses on the challenges in luxury related to the traditional 4 Ps (Products, Place, Promotion and Price), in addition applying the service-dominant logic to luxury management in relation to the other 4 Ps in marketing decisions (People, Process, Panorama, and Productivity). The text opens with an exploration the history and evolution of the concept and definition of luxury and the effect upon the practice of luxury marketing today, concluding with an overvie...
Singularly Unfeminine Profession, A: One Woman's Journey In Physics
In 1981 Mary K Gaillard became the first woman on the physics faculty at the University of California at Berkeley. Her career as a theoretical physicist spanned the period from the inception — in the late 1960s and early 1970s — of what is now known as the Standard Model of particle physics and its experimental confirmation, culminating with the discovery of the Higgs particle in 2012. A Singularly Unfeminine Profession recounts Gaillard's experiences as a woman in a very male-dominated field, while tracing the development of the Standard Model as she witnessed it and participated in it. The generally nurturing environment of her childhood and college years, as well as experiences as an ...
Grapette, the Runaway who Rolled Away
Grapette, an inquisitive baby grape, learns the value of home and family when she runs away from her vine.
Hot Hadronic Matter
The past decade has seen the development of the operational understanding of fun damental interactions within the standard model. This has detoured our attention from the great enigmas posed by the dynamics and collective behavior of strongly interacting particles. Discovered more than 30 years ago, the thermal nature of the hadronic particle spectra has stimulated considerable theoretical effort, which so far has failed to 'confirm' on the basis of microscopic interactions the origins of this phenomenon. However, a highly successful Statistical Bootstrap Model was developed by Rolf Hagedorn at CERN about 30 years ago, which has led us to consider the 'boiling hadronic matter' as a transient...
The David Roche Foundation
The David Roche Foundation guidebook presents a sweeping panorama of the magnificent interiors and European art collection that make up David Roche's residence 'Fermoy House' and museum in North Adelaide. Room by room, discover some of the 3500 objects David Roche acquired during more than six decades of collecting. Senior curator Robert Reason provides a new short biography of the fascinating Mr Roche, describing also his extraordinary contribution to the international canine world as a breeder, exhibitor and judge.
Object of Virtue
A dazzling debut about the power of family and the pain of betrayal set within Manhattan's Fifth Avenue apartments, the opulent mansions of the new Moscow, and the pre-revolutionary palaces of Saint Petersburg. Sasha Ozerovsky is a young expert in Russian art at Leighton's, an exclusive Manhattan auction house. When a dealer arrives from Moscow with an exquisite 1913 Fabergé figurine, Sasha immediately recognizes a rare masterpiece. But in the high stakes art world, the price of an object is tied to its history. If Sasha can determine for whom the bejeweled piece was made and where it has been hiding for the past century, its value -- and Sasha's career -- will soar. But as Sasha moves between New York's high society and Russia's new rich, he discovers that the piece once belonged to his family, and he must face questions about their past that he never dared to ask. Superbly plotted and evoking the elegance of Russia's gilded age, Object of Virtue is an enthralling tale that explores what happens to a family torn between vanity and virtue.
