This is a complete "Intro to Airbrushing" course in a workbook form. A classroom in a book! There is only so much an airbrush can do - dots, lines, daggers, and shading. We introduce each skill in a logical and exciting way. In our book, each skill is cumulative, so grasping each technique is easier than tackling them out of order as you would if you were self taught and left to sift through a cluster of internet information that is not necessarily correct. Our method is successful, because we have taken the entire contents of an Intro to Airbrushing class, and made it into a workbook... yes a WORKBOOK! The skills are introduced in an interesting way, and each lesson has a corresponding workbook page that can be practiced over and over until you are proficient at each skill! There has never been anything like this before! With over 50 lessons, you will master each skill and work up to the four beautiful and challenging final projects.We cover all the basics that you need to know to get set up in airbrushing: types of airbrushes, compressors, paint, substrates, etc....even how to properly hold an airbrush and how to clean it. We are so thorough and innovative, we have earned the endorsement of Anest Iwata-Medea, Inc. AND Grex Airbrushes.

"C. over de Linden, Chief Superintendent of the Royal Dockyard at the Helder, possesses a very ancient manuscript, which has been inherited and preserved in his family from time immemorial, without any one knowing whence it came or what it contained, owing to both the language and the writing being unknown." This is how Dr. J. G. Ottema who translated the old frisian text into dutch begins his preface. Cornelius over de Linden claimed to have inherited the strange manuscript from his grandfather. It tells a story of vast scope taking in hundreds of years of the history of the children of Frya, from the sinking of Aldland that the sailors call Atland to the time of Caesar. Whether it is a suppressed alternative history or a creative invention to rival 'The Lord of the Rings' it is a fascinating and worthwhile book. This edition has the full English and Frisian text, the introduction and preface from the 1876 edition and a map of the world as known to the ancients.
This compilation contains Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy in the Geneva translation of the Holy Bible. It is suitable for anyone who wants to experience the Torah in a conservative translation that helped shape the world.
In Being Essence, Jasmuheen shares of her lifelong love affair with her Essence with Its ability to nourish us and bring our world into a state of permanent peace. Via the profoundly powerful yet simple techniques and insights that she now provides in this her 37th book, Jasmuheen lovingly fulfills her role as an Ambassador of Peace for The Embassy of Peace. She writes:- In this book, we offer simple techniques for the creation and revelation of the 'Paradise - Kingdom of Heaven' type realms. Yet in Essence it is all about our Essence, for it is our Enlightened Essence that gives us this freedom to be nourished on all levels, in such a different way. And when a human being is well nourished from deep within by their Essence, then they too radiate this pure nourishment wherever they go, wherever they are and so our world transforms itself into the Garden of Eden that it too, was always destined to be.

Axel Munthe?s autobiography offers insight into his professional life as a doctor in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, his life anecdotes ranging from the lighthearted to the deeply serious.Titled after the ruined Italian chapel Munthe encountered and desired to renovate, these memoirs span a series of stories taking place over decades. Munthe does not discuss his personal life or family, instead opting to describe the various medical procedures and patients he encountered as a doctor working in a range of different countries. Although some of the author?s recollections are clearly fictional ? including a posthumous chapter set at the gates at heaven ? there are several chapters both eye-opening and sobering for their seriousness.The constraints of the medicine of the time are revealed in the frank recollections of patients whose lives could not be saved, with Munthe instead opting to lessen their suffering as they struggled through the later, painful stages of illness.

Readers are taken through the preparatory stages, through the acquisition of the right equipment, to the practical elements of trimming, beating, pasting and gluing binding to a book. A variety of period patterning styles are shown, their origins ranging from the Medieval/Renaissance period, to the Enlightenment and the modern eras.Although written for amateurs, early editions of Zaehnsdorf?s guidebook met high demand among professional bookbinders and hobbyists alike. The uniform high quality of his guidance, enhanced by numerous practical pointers imbued by the decades the author spent binding books, resulted in wide appreciation.
Ophthalmologist Nathaniel L. MacBride discusses the various maladies of the eye ? first published in 1897, this book offers insight into the history of ophthalmology and eye medicine.Beginning with an anatomical discussion of the cornea, iris and conjunctiva, the author goes on to discuss the various ailments afflicting the eye, such as glaucoma and conjunctivitis. The second part of the book details the physics of eyesight, and how one can discern disturbances to the eye?s function, such as the appearance of cataracts.As this book dates to the late 19th century, the treatments described have long been obsoleted. The application of cocaine solution upon the eye for instance has no place in modern ophthalmology. The surgical techniques of the time were conducted manually and with metallic instruments; such methods are outdated in the modern day.
Samuel Hahnemann was a German physician who created and introduced homeopathy, a system of alternative medicine which claims that a substance which causes diseases in some individuals can cure it in others.Writing in the early 19th century, Hahnemann set out the principles of homoeopathic medicine in a total of 297 aphorisms. Each of these discussed the various attributes of healing that underpin homeopathy as a method of curing. The notion of 'miasms' as the origin and cause of all chronic disease, and how such can be alleviated, is elaborated upon by the author.Today, homeopathy has been widely discredited, with its methodology and teachings contrasted with established discoveries in biology and chemistry. Numerous studies of homeopathy's efficacy have shown that the results of treatment are no better than placebo. In the 19th century however, its use was popular with Hahnemann himself contrasting his methods by terming conventional medicine 'allopathic'.

This is the first dictionary of Seychelles Creole to focus upon translation into English. Seychelles Creole is the mother tongue of Seychellois and the language is strongly promoted by the Seychelles Government. However, the government also recognises the global importance of English and schools teach students the language to a high degree of competence. Today, Creole remains the language most commonly used in the home and between Seychellois in all situations. However, most Seychellois are very competent in English. A reasonable command of both languages is extremely useful in Seychelles.
Progression is a positive trait, as long as one keeps in touch with the past and has a staple backdrop to focus or fall back on. Although the Revised Expanded Third Edition contains all the wording and photographs that are reproduced in both the first edition, as well as this Revised and Expanded Second Edition, it comparatively represents a step into what was, for these latter two books, the future. The year 2019, in which I am writing this foreword, represents respectively 30 years and 20 years into the future since the publication of these two books, so I think this faithful reproduction of the Master Version by Q&I Publications is well timed. For some readers it might bring about nostalgia, for others it might be an eye-opener into a world that is not always truthfully represented, due to commercial or other reasons. For the teachers who I interviewed and have been embodied herein, I hope this Master Version will remain a testament into how they wished to be represented for time immemorial.
Originally published in 1894, Morris' mixture of medieval romance, the supernatural, and the exploration of basic social questions like gender and class, became the precursor of the modern fantasy novel.

Rilke's quiet poems contain exceptional pent-up energy that encompasses the immediacy, wonder, and breathlessness with which the poet experienced life. His unique, spiritual connection with the world, so easily lost in a formal or literal translation, is opened up in these fresh interpretations from Terrance Lane Millet. The English versions of Rilke's poems are very loose translations from the German. An epiphany-like view of the world and the elements in it, more than the form of the poems themselves, seems to be the essence of Rilke. The poet is laid bare, and Millet's fresh use of convention reveals Rilke's openness to the mystery of experience. The poems in this collection explore Rilke's sense that out of darkness may come light and wonder; from turbulence, peace and integration; and that understanding can come through embracing what we do not understand. A certain, indefinable something hovers just out of eyeshot, as the things we fear may be little more than unexplored aspects of ourselves.
