From flying cars to amphibious vehicles, solar-powered saloons to rockets on wheels, these are over 50 of the most wacky cars ever devised. Fancy a car that drives sideways? Try the Jeep Hurricane. Or maybe a car in which the windows change color according to your mood for a more serene and health-giving driving experience? That'll be the Toyota RiN. And if you like a flutter, you'll need the Chrysler Town and Country Black Jack, which contains a mini on board casino. Some concept cars are designed to demonstrate alternative materials and energy sources, or to showcase the gadgets of the future, or even cater for specific lifestyles or groups of people. Many don't even get beyond the prototype stage - for reasons of cost or practicality, or, in the case of the nuclear-powered Ford Nucleon of 1958, the danger of causing a small atomic explosion. Featuring everything from practical experiments such as the hatchback fire engine, and ideas ...

Austin Somerset, Morris Minor, Standard Vanguard, Ford Prefect, Vauxhall Wyvern, Jowett Javelin, Hillman Super Minx ...names redolent of the heyday of British car manufacturing, and for a great many of us representative of the cars we grew up with. From dated-looking Forty-niner Fords and Chevy Fleetlines, to the 'otherwordly' Forward Look Chryslers; from the chastened lines of mid-60s Ramblers, Larks and Fairlanes, to the last of the genuinely stylish American cars: Mustangs, Camaros and Firebirds - these are the cars of movies and television, of magazines and novels, of hopes and dreams. A combined and updated edition of John's previous books Yank Tanks and The Cars We Loved, this book features the British and American classics adored by all New Zealanders. It features profiles of 30 different cars on 128 pages illustrated with colour photos.

'No one has surpassed - in breadth, in directness, in intimacy, in unforgettability - the gut-wrenching work produced by Don McCullin.' Susan Sontag
Don McCullin's reputation stands as one of the greatest war photographers of our times. In recent years he has photographed the landscape surrounding his home in Somerset, but his later travels have taken him to some of the most remote regions in the world. His skill in photographing people in extreme situations has enabled him to mix with tribes on the edges of civilisation. His work among the people of Irian Jaya, including cannibals, appeared in his last book, Don McCullin. McCullin's new work in Africa reaches one of the last corners of the earth where signs of outside influence are few, though they appear ominously significant. Over the last two years Don McCullin has travelled south from Addis Ababa in Ethiopia to the valley of the Omo River leading down to the border with Sudan. ...

Grand Prix Yesterday & Today
is a timely celebration of motoring racing, dating back to its origins in 1906. Each spread will show a facet of the sport from those pioneering days juxtaposed with a similar one of recent times. Complementing these expertly chosen images are reflections on the situations then and now. The structure of the book allows today's F1 fan to see just how much things have technically changed over the years but paradoxically how many of the fundamentals of motor racing have remained unaltered.
Times may change, but the Grand Prix remains the compelling spectacle that it always was.

This is a lavishly illustrated exploration of the cultural legacy of ancient India. For 5,000 years, India has undergone continual transformation, and the past is still very much present in modern-day India.

India Through the Lens

During the days of the British Raj, India was at the vanguard of the explosion of photography in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and early Indian and British photographers strove to document and reveal its landscape, people, culture and architecture. More than 250 extraordinary and gorgeous sepia and hand-tinted photographic reproductions, and insightful text, capture the splendour of India. "India Through the Lens" was a featured exhibition in 2001, at the Arthur Sackler Gallery, over one hundred images described as a kaleidoscope of India; landscape, people and buildings - with a subtle perfume of Orientalism, a Western fascination with all things Eastern. In these images of India, which - despite their turbans, tiger shoots and holy men, forts and maharajas - say less about that country than they do about Great Britain's attempts to document in detail its most bewildering possession.

Studebaker began business as a builder of covered wagons. By 1921 they were the number four automaker in the nation. By 1932 they were bankrupt. And for Studebaker, one of the most remarkable stories in American automotive history, that was only the beginning. "Studebaker: America's Most Successful Independent Automaker" tells the full and fabulously colorful history of this icon of the American automotive scene. Rife with triumph and tragedy, brilliant moves and boneheaded decisions, Studebaker's decades of building cars makes for a tempestuous saga featuring some of the more interesting characters in the twentieth-century business world. But, above all, the story features cars that, for countless Americans, truly defined driving: not just the Champion, which rocketed the company back to the top in 1939, or the 1950s Raymond Lowey-designed Starliner, deemed a "work of art" by the Museum of Modern Art, but also the Hawks and Larks ...
