The Cosmic Duffer knows that golf offers a transformative experience. It's an exquisitely simple yet complex game - an 18 hole drama - complete with plot and subplots. Yet the hero and the villain are always the same person - YOU. Funny, informative, irreverent and thought-provoking, Dan Camilli's "Sacred Ruminations and Profane Observations about Golf and Life " bring a philosopher's sensibility to this mystical game. Great gift for golfers. Visit at www.cosmicduffer.com"

From its origins as a distinct set of ritualised practices in the sixteenth century to its international expansion in the twentieth, tea culture has had a major impact on artistic production, connoisseurship, etiquette, food, design and more recently, on notions of Japaneseness. The authors dispel the myths around the development of tea practice, dispute the fiction of the dominance of aesthetics over politics in tea, and demonstrate that writing history has always been an integral part of tea culture.

Mirei Shigemori Rebel In The Garden

Mirei Shigemori had a major impact on the development of Japanese landscape architecture in the twentieth century. Active from the 1920s, he founded the Kyoto Garden Society in 1932. In 1939 he designed his own first masterpiece, the garden at the main hall of the Tôfuku-ji temple. From then on he designed 240 gardens all over Japan until his death in 1975; amongst the most famous are the Tenrai-an tea garden (1969) and the Matsuo Taisha garden (1975). The main characteristic of his gardens is that they respect tradition and, at the same time, depart from conventional paradigms by opening up to the influence of Western modernism with its own language. The first part of the book covers Shigemori’s life and factors that influenced his work. The second part contains a detailed illustration of 17 gardens. The book is published as a new and revised edition.
