        PAISAJES DE ISRAEL

        by Moshé Kaufman

        PAISAJES DE ISRAEL por Moshé Kaufman Estos treinta y tres dibujos de Moshé Kaufman, escogidos entre cientos de dibujos, son el resultado de sus viajes artísticos a los panoramas históricos y pintorescos de Tierra Santa. Dichos diseños reflejan la admiración del artista por los espléndidos paisajes que pudo apreciar en sus recorridos por las diversas regiones del país. Los años formativos de Kaufman transcurrieron en Jerusalén, donde absorbió por primera vez los panoramas urbanos de la ciudad santa. Como joven arquitecto en Haifa, disfrutó de numerosas visitas a las montañas del Carmel y de la Galilea. Posteriormente, al estar involucrado en la planificación de la ciudad de Eilat, tuvo la oportunidad de entrar en estrecho contacto con los panoramas del desierto montañoso en el Néguev y en el valle de Aravá. Moshé Kaufman es pintor y arquitecto jubilado. Sus paisajes, en blanco y negro y también en color, se exhibieron en diversas exposiciones individuales de gran éxito, en Israel, en Florida y en Nueva York.   «...Moshé Kaufman, sólo con pluma y tinta sobre papel, pinta las sencillas escenas del país y la intensidad con que son percibidas y las hace surgir de la hoja como si lo hicieran de una página del Antiguo Testamento. El sencillo árbol desértico espinoso, con unos pocos arbustos y una colina detrás de ellos es un material que, en las manos de Moshé Kaufman, se convierte en algo mágico».                           Bruno Pulmer Poroner                          "ARTSPEAK" Nueva York   «...Kaufman no copia la naturaleza en un estilo realista, sino más bien adopta la connotación impresionista, con un toque personal. Sus dibujos consisten en una mezcla de misticismo e imaginación con realismo. Sus paisajes expresivos revelan la fuerza oculta en el artista, así como la verdad interna que lo caracteriza».                     "WORLD OF ART" Tel Aviv

        PAYSAGES D’ISRAEL

        by Moshe Kaufman

        PAYSAGES D’ISRAEL par Moshe Kaufman Ces trente-trois dessins par Moshe Kaufman, choisis parmi des centaines de dessins, sont le fruit des excursions entreprises par lui pour dessiner les paysages historiques et pittoresques de la Terre Sainte. Ils reflètent l'admiration de l'artiste à la vue des paysages majestueux qu'il a pu decouvrir en visitant les différentes régions du pays. Les années pendant lesquelles Kaufman s’est formé ont été passées à Jérusalem, où il a tout d’abord absorbé les paysages urbains de la ville sainte. En tant que jeune étudiant en architecture à Haïfa, il s’est livré de nombreuses randonnées dans les monts du Carmel et de la Galilée. Au cours des années suivantes, lorsqu’il participait à la planification de la ville d'Eilat, il a eu l'occasion d'être en contact étroit avec les vues du désert montagneux du Néguev et de la Arava. Moshe Kaufman est un peintre et architecte à la retraite. Ses paysages, en noir et blanc ou en couleurs, ont été exposés dans plusieurs one-man-shows en Israël, en Floride, et New York lui valant autant de succès. « ... Moshe Kaufman, seulement avec plume et encre sur papier, il peint de simples scènes de campagne et l'intensité, avec laquelle il les fait ressentir, les fait se lever de la feuille du dessin comme d’une page de l'Ancien Testament. Un simple arbre du désert, déchiqueté, avec quelques buissons, et une colline derrière eux, c’est avec cela que Moshe Kaufman est capable de réaliser de la magie. »                           Bruno Pulmer Poroner                          « ARTSPEAK » New York  « ... Kaufman ne copie pas la nature dans un style réaliste. Il adopte plutôt la nuance impressionniste avec une touche personnelle. Ses dessins se composent de mysticisme et d'imagination combinés avec le réalisme. Ses paysages expressifs révèlent une force cachée de l'artiste, ainsi que la vérité intérieure qui le caractérise. »                     « WORLD OF ART » Tel Aviv

        Not Our Day to Die

        by Michael Sullivan

        It was work for Mike Sullivan–a flying job like the ones he'd done most of his life in many parts of the world–ferrying people, medicine, crops, supplies and almost anything else you can think of among the isolated jungle villages of Guatemala. Life in the farming co-ops there was simple, peaceful, and good, based on bedrocks of family, community, and faith.Then the repression began. A failed attempt at a coup had led to continued fighting between rebels and government, though in areas far from the almost-utopian Ixcan region. U.S. military and CIA intervention helped defeat the insurgency, but the social inequalities that had led to the movement remained, and the revolution went underground. The Guatemalan army, searching everywhere for those who opposed it, increased its control over the isolated jungle area. Co-op directors, teachers, catechists, and then anyone suspected of being one of or assisting the guerrillas was selectively "disappeared." The army turned to a scorched-earth policy, killing animals, burning crops, uprooting fruit trees, destroying towns, massacring their people. Throughout the Ixcan, those who survived fled. Some returned to their original mountain villages, others crossed the border into Mexico, and a third group survived for sixteen years hiding in the jungle–men, women, and children. Primeval growth took over the land as the war with the guerrilla movement raged on to encompass the entire nation.When finally peace accords were signed, the people of the Ixcan returned. Homes were rebuilt, land reclaimed, the area thrived again. But sixteen years were lost, along with countless lives. For Mike Sullivan, who had returned there when his help was needed, the story of those years–of how the people of the Ixcan survived, and of the many who didn't–was one that had to be told. In three visits, he conducted the interviews that form this book, talking with the villagers he'd known long before. At first, they spoke hesitantly, then with the flood force of vivid memory, telling of their first arrival at the Ixcan, the lives they'd made, and the years of the repression and worse. Their stories are gripping, fascinating, painful–but most of all, deeply human as we witness their struggle to survive and feel the force of the simple values that ultimately carried them through to a new and better life.

        Zoonotic Pathogens in the Food Chain

        by Edited by Denis O Krause, Stephen Hendrick.

        Beginning with their sources, including manure and animal feed, and detailing their development, spread and transmission to humans, Zoonotic Pathogens in the Food Chain gives an insightful introduction to and epidemiological overview of the problems raised by zoonotic pathogens. The authors specifically examine the attributes of microorganisms that allow potential contamination of food sources and the factors in modern animal production processes that contribute to the risk of infection. Chapters discuss in detail pathogens that have recently emerged as important sources of infection, investigating in depth the implications of avian flu, swine flu, bovine spongiform encephalopathies and Johne's disease for human consumers, and considering where potential mitigation strategies should be focused. With a focus on new trends in animal production, such as organic livestock farming and raw milk consumption, this text provides an interesting and up-to-date reference for researchers, academics and those with an interest in pathology working in the livestock industry.

        A Laughing Sun

        by Bayan Al Safadi

        These poetic tales for children address things around us such as the wall, the stone, the ear, the river, and others, humanize them, and present them as free verse poetry. It also includes an audio CD containing song versions of the tales, all of which are loaded with pedagogical, aesthetic, and humanitarian messages. The importance of “A Laughing Sun” stems from its adoption of the poetic tale in most poems. It carries implications for reverence of science, arts, freedom, and human diversity, and highlights the beauty of nature and the protection of the environment. The poems are replete with a sense of cheerfulness and humor, and the collection focuses on the imagination and stimulates both scientific and creative thinking.
