The first comprehensive survey of contemporary artist Dustin Yellin, showcasing his surreal glass sculptures with fantastic dystopian themes. For the past decade, Dustin Yellin has been dazzling the art world with his large-scale glass sculptures, which transport collage to another dimension. These ambitious works are created through an innovative technique using the atmosphere itself as material. With a precise and painstaking process, multi-dimensional images grow from successive planes of multiple stacked panels of glass, each individually embellished with bizarre found objects and eccentric clippings from diverse sources—with references to historical events and popular culture—to create intricate, three-dimensional collages that bring to mind giant psychedelic paperweights. This elegant volume includes details of the works, which take on an abstract cinematic quality, as well as a sixteen-page acetate insert illustrating a cross section of one of the glass sculptures.

Restoring the body's acid-alkaline balance leads to better health and wellbeing.

Maintaining an optimum acid-alkaline balance is integral to enjoying optimal health, yet our modern-day habits and preferences often wreak havoc with this delicate balance. Highly processed foods acidify the body as does a diet high in meat, dairy and sugar. The body becomes overwhelmed with this acid imbalance and this, in turn, causes acidosis, which can lead to a host of problems. Weight gain, gastrointestinal conditions, skin conditions, chronic fatigue and respiratory ailments are just some of the complications.

The ideal diet that supports pH balance is rich in fresh fruits, roots, vegetables, legumes and nuts and avoids excess fats, sugars, refined foods, salt, alcohol, tobacco, coffee and tea.

Part 1 - Understanding pH and Diet

• What is pH? Acid Imbalance (Acidosis), Alkaline Balance (Homeostasis)

Part 2 - Common Gastrointestinal (GI) Conditions

• pH Imbalance symptoms, Acidosis Diagnosis and pH rebalance for: Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

Part 3 - Managing pH-Related Disease

• Drug therapy, nutritional supplements, herbal remedies, mind-body strategies, diet therapy

Part 4 - The pH Diet Solution Program

• 10 Steps for Implementing the pH diet, 28-day balanced meal plan, 175 + pH balanced recipes and 28-day menu plan.

To reach optimum health one must address the acidity of the foods put into the body. This book will become the key resource on the crucial pH balance required.

Alfred Tarski (1901–1983) was a renowned Polish/American mathematician, a giant of the twentieth century, who helped establish the foundations of geometry, set theory, model theory, algebraic logic and universal algebra. Throughout his career, he taught mathematics and logic at universities and sometimes in secondary schools. Many of his writings before 1939 were in Polish and remained inaccessible to most mathematicians and historians until now.

This self-contained book focuses on Tarski’s early contributions to geometry and mathematics education, including the famous Banach–Tarski paradoxical decomposition of a sphere as well as high-school mathematical topics and pedagogy. These themes are significant since Tarski’s later research on geometry and its foundations stemmed in part from his early employment as a high-school mathematics teacher and teacher-trainer. The book contains careful translations and much newly uncovered social background of these works written during Tarski’s years in Poland.

Alfred Tarski: Early Work in Poland serves the mathematical, educational, philosophical and historical communities by publishing Tarski’s early writings in a broadly accessible form, providing background from archival work in Poland and updating Tarski’s bibliography.
