Bøker av Craig Watson

Craig Watson was a man of many talents, interests, and skills. He launched what would become a multifaceted career first in professional theater as a stage manager, producer, and manager of public festivals, concerts, theater productions, poetry readings, and more. He then led the global communications efforts for an international technology company, taught college literature courses, and served as literary manager and associate artistic director at a Tony Award-winning regional theater. And throughout his life, he served his communities first as a volunteer firefighter and then as emergency management director. But the work that sustained and nourished him was always in the creative arts, especially as a writer, poet, and mentor to others. Craig was a unique and dynamic voice in a fascinating, contentious, and multi-layered community of artists. While he indulged his passion for music and expanded his creative endeavors through painting, collage, and sculpture in later years, he never abandoned his love for and fascination with words. Described as "one of our most original and compelling poets," Craig Watson makes his long-awaited return to poetry with Apologia, his thirteenth book. It is being published posthumously following his passing in January 2022 at his home in Jamestown, Rhode Island.

Danny was that beacon of light in Magda's dark and violent existence of criminals and misfits, who slept on the cold hard pavements at night.Could he save her from the gates of insanity or death? Perhaps she could only save herself.

The sixth edition of this popular neuroanatomy atlas retains valuable features of prior editions: low cost and presentation of clinically relevant material in a manner conducive to self-study and review. The book has four parts. The first is a review of the organization of the nervous system, emphasizing the cranial nerves. The second is a summary of the neuroanatomical pathways with accompanying diagrams. The third summarizes the vasculature of the CNS, supplemented by illustrations of the arteries and veins with angiograms placed opposite the illustrations. The fourth is an atlas of the human brain and spinal cord with CT and MRI scans placed opposite the brain sections. With this edition, Basic Human Neuroanatomy becomes essentially an electronic book, although it remains available in print. This allows most of the figures to be in color, and the book to be loaded onto any device that can display a PDF file. An associated website features additional learning material.

Haunted by Cocteau's version of the Orpheus myth since 1968, Craig Watson collected a palimpsest of renderings, fragments and images from the Orphic tradition for the next 40 years. In 2008, he returned to these materials in the wake of a near fatal stroke.
