Gesture Drawing for Animation by Walt Stanchfield
Walt Stanchfield (1919-2000) was an artist who taught life drawing classes for animators with a special emphasis on gesture drawing.
For each weekly class session, he wrote informal handouts to emphasize the theme of the current class session, to comment on work done in the previous class, or discuss whatever topic struck his fancy. Over a period of years, these notes were lovingly shared, studied, and treasured by animation students everywhere.
Mr. Stanchfield personally gave copies of his collection to interested students, and was happy to see them distributed. According to many people who were lucky enough to study under him, he wanted to publish them as a book. Reportedly, the studio did not pursue this opportunity due to the difficulty of obtaining copyrights for the student drawings.

The Japanese Tattoo
Quote:
Paperback: 112 pages
Publisher: Abbeville Press (February 1988)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0896597989
ISBN-13: 978-0896597983
From Library Journal
American photographer Sandi Fellman used a rare large size Polaroid camera to create these photos of Irezumi Japanese men and women who wear elaborate full-body tattoos. Fellman treats the tattoos as artworks and their creators as artists. Her text touches on the tattooing process, common motifs, the sociology of the tattoo, and relationships between the tattoo masters and their clients. Author D.M. Thomas has contributed two pages of his reactions to these unusual and even disturbing images. The 46 color plates in this volume, most of them whole body nudes, should prove provocative, fascinating, or repellant to a wide variety of library patrons. Kathryn W. Finkelstein, M.L.S., Cincinnati

Martial Arts: Chi Kung,Wing Chun and Kung Fu
Cautionary Note to the Reader
The principles and techniques presented in this book are your information purposes only.
The reader should not attempt any of the techniques and exercises in this book without the
supervision of a qualified instructor. This is most especially true regarding the principles of Dim
Mak. It is the strong recommendation of the author that you DO NOT attempt to apply the Dim
Mak techniques on another person without a qualified instructor who is experienced in Dim Mak
and revival techniques being present. As always, it is wise to consult your physician before
undertaking any stressful exercise routine.
Foreword For "Chi Kung, Development and Practical Application
in Wing Chun Kung-Fu"
By Erle Montaigue (Master Degree, China)
Having read many books on Wing Chun over my 35 years in the martial arts business, it
is with great pleasure that I now write the foreword for Scott Bakers book. This book is an
attempt to bring Wing Chun out of the purely physical domain and in to the internal area
including such things as Chi Kung (Qigong) and Dim-Mak. There have been other books that
include Dim-Mak, however, these have been sketchy to say the least. Scott attempts to delve
deeper into the area of point striking, covering acupuncture points and their effects etc. This
book will be a great inclusion in any Wing Chun players library.

The Tai Chi Manual:Step-by-step Guide to the Short Yang Form
Synopsis
Tai Chi is a form of "moving meditation" for the body, mind and spirit. This manual introduces the short yang form in a structured learning programme. It is divided into eight lessons with warm-up exercises which develop the movements required to perform the eight-minute "dance".
From the Author
The nature of tai chi. What this books tries to achieve.
Tai chi is a slow graceful sequence of movements, with its origins in ancient China. it combines slow, graceful movements with calm, regular breathing and is the perfect antidote to a stressful modern life. Today it is practiced the world over by people from all walks of life and is fast becoming one of the most popular forms of fitness training and recreation. The Tai Chi Manual is my second book on the subject, and is ideal for beginners and advanced students alike. Reflecting my own interests in oriental medicine and culture, the approach taken here is to encourage interest in the health and relaxation aspects of tai chi. You will find chapters on health and fitness, therefore, along with information on how tai chi relates to oriental culture - and of course lots of practical, step by step information on how to learn the physical movements of tai chi. The sequence of movements is called 'the form' and the Short Yang Form is the one featured in this book. Included in these pages, you will also find diagrams for feet placement, close up illustrations of hand positions, and detailed instructions on how to create the movements themselves. I hope you enjoy it. By the way, you can also find information on how to obtain audio and video cassettes to help you with your tai chi studies at the back of this book. So there is everything you need here to get started on your tai chi journey!

Don't Make Me Think:A Common Sense Approach to Web Usability
Usability design is one of the most important--yet often least attractive--tasks for a Web developer. In Don't Make Me Think, author Steve Krug lightens up the subject with good humor and excellent, to-the-point examples.
The title of the book is its chief personal design premise. All of the tips, techniques, and examples presented revolve around users being able to surf merrily through a well-designed site with minimal cognitive strain. Readers will quickly come to agree with many of the book's assumptions, such as "We don't read pages--we scan them" and "We don't figure out how things work--we muddle through." Coming to grips with such hard facts sets the stage for Web design that then produces topnotch sites.
Using an attractive mix of full-color screen shots, cute cartoons and diagrams, and informative sidebars, the book keeps your attention and drives home some crucial points. Much of the content is devoted to proper use of conventions and content layout, and the "before and after" examples are superb. Topics such as the wise use of rollovers and usability testing are covered using a consistently practical approach.
This is the type of book you can blow through in a couple of evenings. But despite its conciseness, it will give you an expert's ability to judge Web design. You'll never form a first impression of a site in the same way again. --Stephen W. Plain
Topics covered:
* User patterns
* Designing for scanning
* Wise use of copy
* Navigation design
* Home page layout
* Usability testing
--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
Book Description
Five years and more than 100,000 copies after it was first published, it's hard to imagine anyone working in Web design who hasn't read Steve Krug's "instant classic" on Web usability, but people are still discovering it every day. In this second edition, Steve adds three new chapters in the same style as the original: wry and entertaining, yet loaded with insights and practical advice for novice and veteran alike. Don't be surprised if it completely changes the way you think about Web design.
Three New Chapters!
* Usability as common courtesy -- Why people really leave Web sites
* Web Accessibility, CSS, and you -- Making sites usable and accessible
* Help! My boss wants me to ______. -- Surviving executive design whims
"I thought usability was the enemy of design until I read the first edition of this book. Don't Make Me Think! showed me how to put myself in the position of the person who uses my site. After reading it over a couple of hours and putting its ideas to work for the past five years, I can say it has done more to improve my abilities as a Web designer than any other book.
In this second edition, Steve Krug adds essential ammunition for those whose bosses, clients, stakeholders, and marketing managers insist on doing the wrong thing. If you design, write, program, own, or manage Web sites, you must read this book." -- Jeffrey Zeldman, author of Designing with Web Standards
