Price:

Summary:
''Coffee'' --it's the thing that gets us through, and over, and around. The thing--the beverage, the break, the ritual--we choose to slow ourselves down or speed ourselves up. The excuse to pause; the reason to meet; the charge we who drink it allow ourselves in lieu of something stronger or scarier.

The excuse to pause; the reason to meet; the charge we who drink it allow ourselves in lieu of something stronger or scarier. ''Coffee'' goes to lifestyle, and character, and sensibility: where do we buy it, how do we brew it, how strong can we take it, how often, how hot, how cold? How does coffee remind us, stir us, comfort us? But ''Coffee'' is about more than coffee: it's a personal history and a promise to self; in her confrontation with the hours (with time--big picture, little picture), Dinah Lenney faces head-on the challenges of growing older and carrying on.

Summary:
Founded in 1987, the design collection of the Museum of Design Zurich now has more than 15,000 exhibits, 20,000 examples of packaging and the Archive for Swiss Design and is the first and most comprehensive of its type in Switzerland. "Take away" is the first in a series of publications which presents treasures from the collection on a specific theme. Like the exhibition of the same name, the focus here is the contentious world of items used in mobile food culture: stacking plates, paper cups, pizza boxes, picnic baskets as well as things like mini toothbrushes, folding furniture and much more. This book shows just how much mobile eating shapes our lives, with all its advantages and disadvantages. Not only has it changed what we eat, but also how, where and what we use to eat. Whether fast food, take away, system gastronomy or convenience food.

Children's drawings, scribbles, textures, and textiles are gathered alongside detailed depictions of architecture, ornamentation, and flora and fauna from the southern Turkish city of Adana, where the artist was raised, and where Armenians, Greeks, and Assyrians faced genocidal erasure in 1909, 1915, and throughout the 20th century. Reflecting on the Turkification of Anatolian food and culture, Akay explores the diasporic legacy and ongoing nature of familial inheritance, reformation, and erasure.
