Synopsis Body Horror and Shapeshifting: A Multidisciplinary Exploration by : Jessica Folio
This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2014. The body is unveiled, not as a terra incognita, but as terra to be rediscovered. The authors – whose diverse origins echo the multiple media used to convey their ideas – establish a link between bodily metamorphosis and psychological fissures. The body is a locus of paradoxes: deformed, infected, monstrosized or negated but at the same time fascinating, intimate or sensual. Here, readers will open the door of disruption. They will explore the flesh or the inner processes of the body, the idea of its degeneration, even its perception as a gaping wound. The authors in this volume question the very notion of identity as they embark on a journey to reflect on the self. Life itself is a shapeshifting dance we unknowingly join in its myriad of colours and moves.

Synopsis The Driving Machine: A Design History of the Car by : Witold Rybczynski
The renowned design writer on the extraordinary history of car design. In this lively and entertaining work, Witold Rybczynski—hailed as “one of the best writers on design working today” by Publishers Weekly—tells the story of the most distinctive cars in history and the artists, engineers, dreamers, and gearheads who created them. Delving into more than 170 years of ingenuity in design, technology, and engineering, he takes us from Carl Benz’s three-wheel motorcar in 1855 to the present-day shift to electric cars. Along the way, he looks at the emergence of mass production with Henry Ford’s Model T; the Golden Age of American car design and the rise of car culture; postwar European subcompacts typified by the Mini Cooper; and the long tradition of the streamlined and elegant sports car. Rybczynski explores how cars have been reflections of national character (the charming Italian Fiat Cinquecento), icons of a subculture (the VW bus for American hippies), and even emblems of an era (the practical Chrysler minivan). He explains key developments in automotive technology, including the electric starter, rack-and-pinion steering, and disc brakes, bringing to light how the modern automobile is the result of more than a century of trial and error. And he weaves in charming accounts of the many cars he’s owned and driven, starting with his first—the iconic Volkswagen Beetle. The Driving Machine is a breezy and fascinating history of design, illustrated with the author’s delightful drawings.

TW Index is a complete and detailed index of everything that has appeared in the SDC Turning Wheels magazine since its inception in 1972.

If you own, for instance, a 1959 Hawk, TW Index will give you instant access to everything that has been published about your car and much more. Each listing, of course, refers you to the specific issue of "Turning Wheels" and cites the page on which the item begins. Rated "excellent" by Fred Fox and Bob Palma.

Synopsis Lockheed's Constellation by : Steve Pace
As a dedicated passenger airliner, the Lockheed Constellation was referred to as "Queen of the Skies." As a devoted warbird, she was called upon o serve the armed forces. Elegant, graceful, and extremely photogenic, the legendary "Connie" remains one of the most sought-after aircraft for airshow appearances. Witness these beautiful aircraft in this fine collection of color photographs depicting the planes in both civilian and military dress, as well as in U.S. and foreign markings. Piston-powered and propeller-driven, triple-tailed and shaped like a dolphin, the Constellation, Super Constellation, and Starliner series are bona fide classics.
