Illustrated wraps. 80 pages : illustrations chiefly color portraits ; 23 x 29 cm. Catalog published on the occasion of the exhibition held at DC Moore Gallery from February 13 to March 22 2008.<br /> <br /> One of the most prominent American painters of the twentieth century Jacob Lawrence 1917-2000 worked in a highly personal manner creating Modernist views of everyday life as well as epic narratives of American history and historical figures. His work is direct and forceful in keeping with his lifelong conviction that art could effect social change. At the same time it is essentially humanistic exploring the many challenges of African-American life as a means of addressing the universality of the human experience. Jacob Lawrence: Moving Forward Paintings 1936-1999 celebrates the artist's long and productive career spanning more than 60 years. Beginning with lively street scenes of 1930s Harlem when the young painter was establishing his artistic viewpoint it highlights important examples from every decade of his working life including a tribute to Jackie Robinson -- the first African-American to play in the major leagues -- and the powerful Hiroshima series done for a reissue of John Hersey's well-known book on the horrific event. This survey concludes with some of Lawrence's final narratives of labor and leisure in his Builders and Gamesseries of the 1990s. In addition to 58 images of the artist's work this volume features an appreciation by David C. Driskell noted artist curator and art historian who was a friend of Lawrence's for many decades and an insightful overview of Lawrence's life and art by Patricia Hills the distinguished scholar of American art. - from publisher.

201684596Washington DC: CSBA Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments 2016. Presumed First Edition First printing. Trade paperback. Very good/No DJ issued. Format is approximately 7.75 inches by 10 inches. vi 132 pages. Maps. Footnotes. Table. Acronyms. Andrew Francis Krepinevich Jr. born 13 February 1950 is a defense policy analyst who is a distinguished senior fellow at and former longtime president of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments. Krepinevich graduated from West Point with a B.S. degree in 1972. He then spent 21 years as an officer in the U.S. Army serving on the personal staff of three Defense Secretaries and in the Office of Net Assessment. Following his retirement from the army Krepinevich assumed his current position as director of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments a non-profit think tank focused on defense and national security issues. While at CSBA he has served on the National Defense Panel and Defense Policy Board and advised senior military and civilian policymakers. Jacob Cohn is a Research Fellow at the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments Mr. Cohn manages the Strategic Choices Tool and conducts research and analysis for both the Strategic Studies and the Budgetary Studies programs. His primary areas of interest concern trends in the overall defense budget and in particular the linkages between resources and strategy. His research also focuses on the utilization of scenarios and wargames to facilitate long-range strategic planning and operational concept development. Mr. Cohn has authored a number of publications on trends in the defense budget and defense acquisitions as well as case studies exploring the Second Nuclear Age. The First Nuclear Age was characterized by the Cold War era bipolar international system and a corresponding bipolar nuclear competition between the United States and the Soviet Union. While a few other states such as Great Britain and France also possessed nuclear arms their arsenals were very small compared to those of the two superpowers. The world is far different today. On the one hand both the United States and Russia have far smaller nuclear arsenals than they did at the Cold Wars end. At the same time new nuclear powers have emerged in pace with advanced conventional precision warfare capabilities. The rise of cyber warfare has also led to concerns over the security and reliability of early warning and command-and-control systems and weapon systems as well. Advances in the cognitive sciences and research on Cold War crisis decision-making have challenged some of our thinking as to how strategies based on deterrence work or risk failing. Together these and other recent developments have combined to form what some are calling a Second Nuclear Age. Dr. Andrew Krepinevich and Jacob Cohn have authored a scenario-based assessment of the competitive dynamics of the Second Nuclear Age. The assessment explores among other things the implications for extended deterrence crisis stability missile defense prompt conventional global strike growing multipolar or n-player competitions and planning assumptions as they have been influenced by advances in the cognitive sciences to include prospect theory. Their paper also includes an analysis of the implications for U.S. interests with an emphasis on preserving the seventy-one-year tradition of non-use of nuclear weapons since their only use in 1945 also known as the nuclear taboo. The existing and prospective challenges posed by the Second Nuclear Age as reflected in these scenarios are sobering. If the United States seeks to preserve the nuclear taboo it ignores them at its peril. CSBA [Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments] paperback
