 Dear Bookseller,
Our list this Fall is the largest and, I believe, much the strongest that we
have ever published. In each area, it builds on recent successes, but it is also our
most inventive list, reaching into almost every sector of the market.
We launch a new series on modern and contemporary artists, Art File,
with a book by Jonathan Jones on Tracey Emin. The series of beautiful, small gift
biographies, Lives of the Artists, continues with Frida Kahlo, another very popular
woman artist.
This theme is continued in The Short Story of Women Artists, a brilliantly
synoptic account of how women have changed the course of art by engaging with
the female condition. Our fascination with the macabre is explored in a number of
books including Anatomica: The Exquisite and Unsettling Art of Human Anatomy,
which shows through illustration the growing understanding of the workings of the
human body from the Renaissance onwards.
Our Photography list is extended with a book full of visual wit, The Art of
Getting Lucky: How to Think Like a Street Photographer, and the Film list with This is
How You Make a Movie, which deconstructs the techniques of the great directors in
a book that will appeal to both students and film enthusiasts. 100 Things to Do in a
Forest and How to Grow your Dinner Without Leaving the House touch in a light and
engaging way on powerful themes in contemporary life. Night Vision: A Field Guide
to Your Dreams is a particularly beautifully illustrated, but informative, book that
makes a perfect present to a friend or indeed yourself.
In the Children’s list, Marion Deuchars has revived her series of brilliant
activity books with two more––Let’s Make Some Great Art: Animals and Patterns.
Einstein’s Theory of Relativity is the first book in an ambitious series: Words that
Changed the World. The History of Everything in 32 Pages is just that. From Big Bang,
through the creation of the solar system and life on earth, to the human story, it
provides a humanist creation myth.
The Gift list is as inventive as ever with a large number of new formats,
such as Wild Bunch, a reinvention of the Crazy Eights game, using animals instead
of numbers. We have followed the huge success of Tattoo Tarot, with Movie Tarot,
which shows how film stars’ greatest roles fit perfectly into Tarot archetypes. Poop
Bingo takes one of the most popular gifts of 2019, Who Did This Poop?, into the
bestselling bingo series.
Last, we are reissuing as a small gift book Virginia Woolf’s How Should One
Read a Book? which answers a question that must be fundamental to every book
buyer and reader.

INDIA

Areca Palm, Betel-nut Palm

Areca catechu

T he areca palm looks impossibly slender for a tree that can grow
to 30 metres (100 feet) tall, and the horizontal bands that often
characterize its trunk – the vestiges of fallen fronds – give it the
appearance of a tower of stacked discs. Deep-orange fruit in extravagant
bunches each yield a seed the size of a large nutmeg and similarly marbled
throughout. It is these ‘nuts’ – and the recreational drugs they contain –
for which areca is cultivated in plantations from India across tropical Asia
to Fiji. The world’s annual production of areca nuts is more than a million
tons; India produces, and consumes, about two-thirds of that.
Areca’s flavour is reminiscent of citronella and clove, with notes of
carbolic antiseptic, while a generous dash of tannin adds a mouth-puckering
finish. However, the taste is secondary. Areca contains arecoline and other
alkaloid drugs that are absorbed readily through the lining of the mouth
when the nut is chewed. The effects are mild euphoria, heightened alertness
and a relaxing warmth. Across Asia, areca is consumed daily by several
hundred million people, mostly as a social lubricant, often as a digestive to
counteract postprandial lethargy and habitually, if disturbingly, by long-
distance lorry-drivers.
Areca is sold by specialist street vendors, known in India as paanwallahs.
They wrap areca shavings in the heart-shaped leaves of the betel vine
(Piper betle), adding a dab of slaked lime, which is extracted from ash and
makes the mixture alkaline to help release the drugs. Seated behind trays
of intriguing pots and potions, paanwallahs will gladly offer suggestions of
flavourings such as cardamom, cinnamon, camphor or tobacco, along with
congenial conversation. A packet or ‘quid’ of paan turns vermilion as it is
chewed, and promotes copious saliva, to be ejected, never swallowed. This
produces a marvellously clean feeling in the mouth but also pavements
stained with blood-red gobs: it could only ever be a custom of outdoor
cultures. In the days before lipstick, areca was used to stain lips seductively
red, but chewing it also darkens and eventually blackens the teeth. Tastes
change; in nineteenth-century Siam (now Thailand) darkened teeth were so
desirable that sets of dentures were reportedly made in black. Although still
increasing in India, the use of areca is levelling off elsewhere, partly because
of its association with various cancers and partly (and ironically) because it
is being replaced by tobacco, which is more aggressively marketed.

Yayoi Kusama, by Alex Majoli
Tokyo, Japan, 2016
Alex Majoli photographed octogenarian
artist Yayoi Kusama, dubbed the ‘Polka-
Dot Princess’, at her Shinjuku studio
for Time magazine’s 2016 edition of
‘100 Most Influential People’. ‘She was
natural, fully immersed in her brush,
her colours,’ the photographer told
Time in an accompanying interview.
‘She’s been photographed millions
of times, but I wanted to capture
her unencumbered. People wear
masks and act out in society through
this facade, but artists are more
vulnerable, they aren’t hiding from
anything. Kusama was not afraid of the
way she would be portrayed by me.’

Francis Bacon, by Ian Berry
London, UK, 1967
Francis Bacon, a self-taught artist,
caused a sensation with Three
Studies for Figures at the Base of
a Crucifixion when it was first shown
in London in 1945. It was shocking
in its vivid horror and originality,
even in the immediate aftermath
of war. Widely regarded as Bacon’s
first mature work, it typified his
focus on human figures, depicted
in grotesque, highly expressionistic
brushstrokes, and set alone
within empty rooms – not unlike
the tiny studio in which Ian Berry
photographed him in 1967, where
he continued to work until his death
25 years later.
These photographs were
commissioned for an interview

in The Observer Magazine: Bacon was
mid-career and a retrospective at the
Tate Gallery, London, was followed
by a string of major institutional
exhibitions abroad. His personal life,
however, was increasingly messy,
marked by violence, alcoholism and
a tempestuous relationship with his
lover, George Dyer, who featured in
many of his paintings. Not that Berry
was fazed by any of that. He was
a photographer with a knack for being
in the right place at the right time,
having made a name for himself in
South Africa, where he was the only
journalist to record the Sharpeville
massacre in 1960. He had built
a reputation for his observational
portrait stories, so he relished
meeting artists in their workplace.
23
On the day of the shoot, however,
Bacon was ‘truculent’. Berry was
disappointed the artist was not more
expressive: ‘I simply dumped him
down in his studio, which was such
a marvellous mess…’ Berry left
feeling the shoot had been a failure,
but it did make the cover of The
Observer Magazine in March of the
same year.

Fridamania has made Frida Kahlo’s image ubiquitous:
she has been reborn as a Halloween costume,
Barbie doll, children’s book character, textile print,
phone cover, and the inspiration for everything from
cocktails to fashion shoots. But it is more difficult
to get a clear vision of this bold and brilliant, foul-
mouthed, heavy-drinking, hard-smoking, husband-
stealing, occasionally bisexual, often bed-bound,
wheelchair-using, needy, forthright, and passionate
woman. Hettie Judah sets out to correct that with
this superb biography of one of the most charismatic
artists of the last 100 years.

A
crow half-dead with thirst, came upon a pitcher which had

took a pebble and dropped it into the pitcher. Then he took another
pebble and dropped it into the pitcher. Then he took another pebble
and dropped it into the pitcher. He continued to do this until, at
last, he saw the water level rise towards the top and, after casting in
a few more pebbles, he was able to quench his thirst and save his life.
The moral of the story is: you can always use your wits to overcome
obstacles, even if it seems to be slow progress.

Shelter Building
It is possible to build a shelter strong and weatherproof enough
to camp out in for a night, but the likelihood of anyone doing
this in the age of pop-up tents is very small. Instead, how about
making a temporary shelter for when it unexpectedly starts to
rain, a shelter to block the wind or sun, or a shelter to eat lunch
in, just for the fun of it?

No matter what design you’re going for:

• Choose a spot with plenty of fallen branches and leaf-bearing twigs.
Don’t ever chop down branches to build your shelter. (An exception to
this would be if you were lost in the jungle and you were going to die
without a shelter, at which point damaging a tree would probably be
the least of your concerns.)
• Don’t build near a stream or spring. Having picked a lovely spot and
built a beautiful shelter, sometimes it becomes clear only too late that
your site is actually a burbling spring or that the waters will rapidly rise

to flood you out.
• Take advantage of a forked branch by interlocking it with other
branches to provide stability in the wind, and as you criss-cross your
branches you’ll end up with a grid on which you can balance leaves.
• Criss-cross branches with dead leaves attached over one another to
make little roof tiles for keeping rain off and as a bit of insulation
from the cold.
• Keep your walls angled for maximum wind and rain resistance.
• If building downwind, put the strongest shelter wall between you and
the wind. This also means you won’t end up being smoked out should
you get a fire going in there.
• Take inspiration from your environment and build accordingly. Should
you happen to find a nice cosy cave, perhaps leave the shelter building
and skip straight to the picnic.
90
100_things_to_do_in_a_forest_inside.indd 90-91
The Tepee
If you’ve got lots of long branches at your disposal, the easiest way to build
a satisfying shelter is to lean as many branches as you can find in a circle
around the trunk of a tree. Stand the thick ends on the ground, to mini-
mize head injuries in the event that one falls. Obviously, the further from
the trunk you place your branches, the lower but broader your shelter will
be – great for sitting down in and having lunch with friends, not so great for
disco events.

Wild Swimming
Going swimming in a wild and natural spot is not only food for
the soul, but also a fundamental part of finding joy in the world.
It can also be an invitation to catch Weil’s disease, so it’s worth
some forethought. The internet abounds with suggestions for
safe swimming areas, so you don’t need to be Magellan to scout a
super spot.
If you’re planning a wild swimming outing at a wooded river, bring a rope
to rig up a swing that will take you right out to the middle of the water. If
you’re heading to a forest with a meandering stream, bring equipment for
lighting a warming fire afterwards. It is important, but not always essen-
tial, to have the landowner’s permission to swim or light a fire, so do check
first.
Wild swimming is a most rewarding and satisfying pastime, but
making a mental note of some simple precautions will ensure your
outing

can swim. Don’t ever drink the water, however tempting that might be,
because bacteria abound in every mouthful of river water. It’s also a
good idea to drink a can of Coke after any wild swimming, since the
harsh chemicals in it will help to destroy any bugs that have found their
way into your tummy. If you see a blue-green algae clumped on the
surface of the water, don’t swim – it can cause an itchy rash that lasts for
a couple of days. Lastly, never dive head first when swimming in wild
spots; water depths vary and cannot be ascertained by looking down
from above. You’ll find the safest wild swimming spots detailed online
with information about currents, depths and bacteria all provided by a
raft of enthusiasts and experts.
Wild swimming, particularly in your undies, can create merriment on
even the dullest of days. Rivers, lakes and streams all provide their own
unique experiences, so whether you’re paddling up to your ankles
or jumping right in, don’t pass up an opportunity to pop into the water.

Street photography may look like luck, but you have
to get out there and hone your craft if you want
to shake up those luck vibes. From understanding
how to be invisible on a busy street, to anticipating

Illustrated throughout with over 90 of Stuart’s
images, this is a unique opportunity to learn from
one of the finest street photographers around.

don’t have the ability to see into
the future any more than the next
photographer, but over the years I’ve
learned how to spot things – mini
narratives – before they happen and
to second-guess how they might evolve.
As a photographer whose natural habitat
is the street, one of the best experiences is
when what you think is about to happen, does
actually happen, and you’re there to capture
it. When I’m out, my eye is roving all the
time, scouring everything in search of poten-
tial subjects. When I clock something that
catches my attention, I wonder what might
happen next and ask myself if it’s worth
the wait for a picture. All this happens very
quickly and I do it automatically now. Some-
times I will follow an interesting subject
with my eyes, trying to work out where he
or she might go next or what they might do.
It doesn’t always lead to anything picture-
worthy, but occasionally it pays off.

Mono-ha
Mono-ha, usually translated as ‘school of things’, was
a movement in mid-1960s Japanese and Korean art
that valued the dialogue between organic and artificial
materials, which were treated simply and placed in
subtle and sensitive installations. Mono-ha works of
art used natural objects like rocks, soil and water, often
juxtaposed with sheets of steel or glass. The effect is
minimal in aesthetic and contemplative in tone. These
were works that stood apart from the international
art market: mono-ha works were often ephemeral and
depended on the viewer’s experience with the objects
in space.
Art Styles
Bauhaus
The Bauhaus was one of the most celebrated and
influential art schools in history. Based in a number
of German cities – Weimar, then Dessau, then Berlin –
the Bauhaus took a radical approach to art education,
fusing fine art with crafts, design and architecture.
Its aesthetic was generally stripped-down, geometric
and industrial. The Bauhaus was founded between
the two world wars and was finally shut down by the
Nazis in 1933, whereupon many of its most influential
members fled to other countries, where their influence
spread. Perhaps most notable is its influence in the
United States, where Bauhaus émigrés permanently
transformed American architecture.

Possible Worlds
Dr Pangloss, a fictional character in Voltaire’s satirical
novella Candide, keeps reassuring everybody around
him that, despite numerous calamities that befall them,
they all live in ‘the best of all possible worlds’. Pangloss is
a thinly veiled parody of Voltaire’s fellow Enlightenment
philosopher Gottfried Leibniz, who made a rational
argument in favour of our world, although not perfect,
having to be the best that could have been created. In
recent philosophy, the idea of possible worlds is used
in modal logic to explore metaphysical possibility. Saul
Kripke says that ‘modal facts’ are facts about possible
worlds, where our actual world is only one among
many worlds that are possible. Each possible world
is described by a consistent set of statements. So, the
Knowledge

statement ‘It is possible for me to become a prima
ballerina’ is true because there is at least one possible
world, so defined, where I am a prima ballerina.

Directing Depth of Field

Editing Crosscutting

Depth of Field
Strategizing how much of the frame
you want in focus

When a filmmaker is determining the depth of field in a shot, she’s not

just thinking about what she wants in focus, but why. The easiest way
to describe “depth of field” is that it’s a measurement of the area of
the frame in which objects are in focus. So, for instance, a shot with
shallow depth of field has very little focus area in it (in these shots,
the principal subject is in focus, but everything in front of and behind
him would be blurry). The greater depth of field, the wider the focus
area is. (On a technical level, the greater your lens’s aperture, the more
your depth of field will shrink. Likewise, a longer lens will diminish your
depth of field.)
These camera adjustments might not seem that important: After all,
as long as your main character can be seen easily, what does it matter
what happens in the background? Let’s see how depth of field can add
drama to a scene.
Alienation The Oscar-winning Moonlight is the story of a young, gay black man strug-
gling to find himself. Director and cowriter Barry Jenkins articulates Chiron’s
Moonlight internal anguish in plenty of ways, but this simple shot says more than reams of
dialogue could.
2016
Director: Barry Jenkins; In this image, taken from the first chapter of Moonlight’s triptych of tales,
cinematography: we see Chiron as a child (played by Alex Hibbert) as he begins to suspect that
James Laxton; actor:
he’s gay. Confusion over his sexual identity is only one of his anxieties, though:
Alex Hibbert
His mother is battling drug addiction, and he doesn’t have any strong male role
models in his life, save for a local dealer who befriends him.
What this still evokes so powerfully is Chiron’s sense of alienation. And much
of that feeling comes from the shallow depth of field. Chiron is in sharp focus,
but the world around him is blurry. He’s cut off from his surroundings, almost as
if he's in his own world. If you want to spiritually isolate your character, consider
a shallow depth of field.
An intertwining “Everything Is Connected” reads the tagline for Cloud Atlas, which looked at a
fate series of characters across different periods of human history. Intriguingly, the
Wachowskis and Tom Tykwer decided to cast the same actors to play different
characters, underlining novelist David Mitchell’s argument that our fates are

Wachowski and Tom
twenty-fourth-century warrior). He’s one of many sets of characters in Cloud Atlas,
Tykwer; actor: Tom Hanks
which also features stars like Ben Whishaw and Halle Berry in multiple roles. The
filmmakers never focus on just one time period, or one character. Instead, we
move across centuries back and forth, and the crosscutting seeks to emphasize
eternal recurrence – a belief in our common humanity and interconnectedness,
and the fact that certain events occur again and again over time.
The only way to truly make these points would be through crosscutting. If
we are to understand how linked we are, we need to see the similarities between
the characters in Cloud Atlas. Even though the film spans hundreds of years, the
crosscutting erases that mammoth time period. We’re invited to notice how alike
these different characters are, even if they aren’t alive at the same time.
One war, Christopher Nolan’s 2017 war film takes us to 1940, when British and Allied troops
several are trying to evacuate from Northern France as German troops descend upon
them. Dunkirk dramatizes the event by showing us several individual scenes, each

D’Arcy, Kenneth Branagh, varys – some last a week, others just an hour – the crosscutting allows them to

coexist in a thrilling whole. Dunkirk is a flurry of sensation and horror, and Smith’s
deft editing illustrates how all these men are fighting for the same cause, although
many of them aren’t aware of the individuals in the other sequences.
There aren’t a lot of deeply developed characters in Dunkirk, but Nolan isn’t
after that. Instead, he’s honoring the collective spirit of soldiers fighting against
tyranny. Crosscutting adds immeasurable emotional oomph to Nolan’s formal
strategy.

Step 1 Step 2
Using scissors or an unpicker, unpick the stitching along the Measure the gap between the shoulder points. If the left-hand

THE BODY
Start by looking at the model from a distance. Analyse her stance
and posture (including any postural imbalances) and take these
on board when fitting the toile. If the garment is intended as a
bespoke item for the person being fitted, then it makes sense to
accommodate her unique physical characteristics. But if you are
using a fit model for a mass-produced garment, you will need to
standardize the fit to suit your customer demographic, using the
measurements you took as described in Chapter 2 as a guide.
The ideal fit model will have a neutral posture, with shoulders
neither hunched forward nor swayed back. Finally, try not to fit
the toile too tightly or it will not be suitable for a wide range of
wearers.
In the commercial sphere, core production ranges must be made
to fit a variety of wearers. Many retailers now offer fits that cater to
a number of different body shapes, such as tall, petite, full-busted,
curvy, and so on.

side as worn is different from the right-hand side, note whichever
is larger, and calculate an average measurement. In this example
Then let the bodice toile ‘fall’ back naturally on the body until the the measurement is 3cm (1 1/8 in).
FITTING THE BODICE (WITHOUT SLEEVES)
SNPs are sitting naturally on the model’s SNP positions.
Fit the bodice first, and then apply the sleeves as a separate step.
Are the SNPs sitting too high? Reduce the shoulder slant.
When the shoulder slant of the toile is greater than the model’s
shoulder slant (meaning the angle of the shoulder slant is ‘deeper’
as drafted from SNP to SP), the SNPs will appear to sit raised
above the shoulders.
Novice fitters often make the mistake of pinning away the
apparent excess fabric at the SNP so that it graduates down to
the shoulder point. This is not the right solution because if the
SNPs are sitting high, the other important points – the front and
back body lengths, BPs, armhole depth, apexes of all darts, CF
neck and CB neck – will also be too high, and these will end up
hoisted above the originally measured and planned positions.

The following sections will show you how to fit the main elements
of any garment or component – bodice, sleeve, skirt, dress or
trousers – while also explaining how to fix the most commonly
encountered fitting problems.

If one says “red” – the name of a color – and there are fifty
people listening, it can be expected that there will be fifty
reds in their minds. And one can be sure that all these reds
will be very different. — Josef Albers
THE STRUCTURE OF COLOR
Most people are aware that colors have more than
one visible quality. This is apparent because color
names, such as “red,” are often coupled with adjec-
tives. Expressions such a “fiery red,” “cherry red,”
or “blood red” reflect the fact that colors have charac-
teristics not adequately represented by a simple
color name.
In fact, all colors possess three distinct attributes that
account for their appearance. Each can be manipulated
independently, either by color mixing or by altering
the context in which the color appears. These attrib-
utes are hue, value, and saturation.
2.1 The hue continuum organized as a circle.

CURRENTLY AVAILABLE
p.127 → Color, Second Edition
FIRST PRINCIPLES
HUE
When we refer to a color on the spectrum by its
name, we talk about its hue. The spectrum is a hue
continuum that stretches from infrared to ultravi-
olet and passes through recognizable color zones.
Theoretically, at the heart of every color zone is the
pure, true version of each hue. But because each zone
contains an infinite number of variations, there can
be no determinate center to any hue zone.
Most of us carry a mental picture of individual hue
identities, especially for simple colors such as red and
blue. But this conception is personal. A true, essential
blue would lie somewhere between cyan (a blue that
leans toward green) and ultramarine (which is biased
toward violet). But its precise position is impossible to
determine. Figure 2.1 illustrates the hue continuum.
The Primary Triad
The primary triad is a fundamental color concept
that, in addition to being useful, has an almost mythic
allure. In theory, by intermixing two or three of the
colors of the true primary triad any color can be
achieved, while the primary colors themselves are
unobtainable through mixing.
As children, we are taught that the primary hues are
red, yellow, and blue. But strictly speaking, red and
blue are not primary colors because red can be made
by combining magenta and yellow and blue can be
made by combining magenta and cyan. The correct
primary triad has, since the late nineteenth century,
been determined to be cyan, magenta, and yellow.
These three colors are truly singular and incapable of
being mixed from others. They also combine to make
the broadest range of visible tones. That is why cyan,
magenta, and yellow (plus black) are the basis of
four-color printing.
Color: A workshop for artists and designers is
a clear and practical guide to a subject central
to art and design. The book builds skill and
understanding of the principles and strategies
for the use of color, presenting a sequence
of easy-to-follow assignments that can be
made by hand or digitally.
Key color principles discussed include:
→ The nature of color perception.
→ The visual structure of color.

panels and columnar frames (not unlike the architectural
separation of narrative reliefs on Roman triumphal arches),
the Siena pulpit follows the example of Gothic church
portals, transforming the columnar divisions into human
figures and unifying the entire surface of the pulpit. Nicola
may well have made a trip to northern France, as his son
Giovanni is later thought to have done, for images such as
the handsome Christ figure (Fig. 5.4) separating the panels
of the Massacre of the Innocents and the Crucifixion, along
with the writhing crucified Christ, can be traced to earlier
examples of this type in the Île de France.
In Siena Nicola abandoned graphic clarity in favor of
greater emotional veracity. In the Crucifixion relief Christ
hangs heavily from the cross, which emphasizes his suffer-
ing, rather than appearing as he did in Pisa with his arms
and hands outstretched and relaxed. While both reliefs
emphasize the horror of the event with figures cowering
under the cross and the Virgin fainting in empathetic grief
(see Fig. 5.4), in Siena they are thinner and more mobile,
truly capable of the emotions that Nicola attributes to
them. In The Massacre of the Innocents at the left (see Fig. 5.3),
a violent story which appears on the Siena pulpit but not at

CHIMAERA
Fire-breathing monster that’s part lion,
part goat and part serpent

One of the deadliest monsters of Greek mythology, the Chimaera

was a giant, fire-breathing beast. She had the head and body of a lion,
a goat’s head on her back and a venomous snake for a tail.

The Chimaera was said to live in the mountainous land

of Lycia, where she terrorized the whole country, destroying villages
and farms with her fiery breath. To see her, even if you were
lucky enough to survive the encounter, was an omen that a
disaster, such as a killer volcanic eruption, was coming.

Many heroes tried to kill this formidable creature, but

it seemed an impossible task. As soon as they came close
enough to attack her, she killed them with a jet of flame.

However, in one story, King Iobates of Lycia asked the hero

Bellerophon to get rid of the Chimaera for him. To help Bellerophon,
the goddess Athena agreed that Pegasus, the winged horse
of the gods, could carry him to Lycia.

Bellerophon prepared for the attack by fixing a lump

of lead to the tip of his spear. He flew high above
the monster on Pegasus’s back, so that the flames
could not reach him, and took aim. He hurled
the spear at the Chimaera’s gaping mouth.
As it plunged into her throat, her breath
melted the lead, choking her to death.

TIME
What was known in Einstein's day?
What time is it, right now? To answer this simple question, you might just look at your watch.
But that would only tell you the time where you are. It wouldn’t tell you what time it is on the other side of
the world. So, what time is it, right now? And what does that question actually mean?

ABSOLUTE TIME
In his book, the Principia, Isaac Newton wrote: “Absolute,
true, and mathematical time … flows equably without
relation to anything external.”

When Newton was coming up with his three laws

in 1687, he assumed that the universe had its own
ultimate time that ticked away in the background
no matter where you were.
So, according to Newton, if you synchronised two
clocks and used them to measure a single event while
one clock was standing still and the other was moving,
the two clocks would show the same time.

What we humans can actually experience, though, Newton

called “relative, apparent and common time”.

Newton thought that we experienced time passing

because of the movement of objects that we could
see such as the sun crossing the sky and the
ticking of clocks. But Newton wasn't quite right…
TELLING THE TIME
In the past, even something as simple as
an hour was not fixed.
SYNCHRONISED TIME
In the 1840s, Standardised Time was introduced in
the UK by railway companies (it was even called
Railway Time) to help people plan their journeys
and keep the trains running on time.
Other countries followed, slowly standardising time into
zones around the world.

During summertime, daylight hours were longer as the time By the time Einstein was working in the Patent Office in

Ever dream that you were flying? Or being chased?
Do you wake up and wonder “What did that mean?”
The Dream Decoder Journal gives you instructions
and helpful tips to best recall your dreams and
then gives you tools to decipher their meanings,
including interpretations of 60 of the most common
dreams, explaining what your unconscious mind is
telling you, and what events or situations in your
waking life might inspire certain dreams.
This improved self-awareness can be used as a tool
to deal with challenging emotional situations or
life choices.
AUTHOR Theresa Cheung is based in the UK and
has been researching and writing about
dreams and spirituality for 25 years.
Her numerous titles include A to Z Dream
Dictionary (2006) and 21 Rituals to
Change Your Life (2017).

illustrator based in Bristol.
BEING LATE
Turning up late for an appointment or event
can have a range of possible meanings, usually
on the theme of something problematic in your
approach to some aspect of your life. Perhaps
you’re showing a lack of confidence or self-
esteem or not dealing effectively with practical
matters. The most common manifestation
is missing a flight or a train—a classic symbol
of feeling overwhelmed or not up to the
challenge of a task. An alternative meaning
is loss of control—in particular, perhaps,
an inability to cope with deadlines or time
pressures. Turning up late in general may
be an alert suggesting you need to be more
organized and disciplined. But sometimes it’s
a nudge to make you face your fears and deal
with a situation you’ve been avoiding. If you’ve
suffered a loss of some kind, being late may be,
straightforwardly, a reflection of sorrow or regret.
BEING LOST, LOSING SOMETHING
Dreams about being lost, or trying and failing
to find something or someone, are obviously
anxiety related. In waking life you may be
feeling confused or directionless, or that you
don’t fit in or aren’t up to a task or situation.
The dream should prompt you to take an honest
look at your life to identify what’s causing such
feelings. If you lose someone you know in a
dream, perhaps he or she represents aspects
of yourself you feel you’re losing touch with.
Losing keys or a phone may symbolize a sense
of exclusion. If the lost item is precious
or indispensable, it could stand in for a broken
or interrupted relationship. Perhaps you need
to give yourself time to grieve, let go, and heal
before you can move forward. Dreams of
abandonment tend to have similar meanings,
since loss is often perceived as abandonment
at a deep psychological level.

Title: Date/Time: Location: How would you draw your dream?
BEING UNPREPARED TO P 1 0 D R E A M
Being unprepared for an exam or important
event, or taking and failing a test, suggests
you aren’t meeting the standards you’ve set
for yourself. It may appear in the dream that
you’re being judged by teachers, instructors,
or interviewers, but in reality it’s you who
are judging yourself—harshly. You may lack
self-esteem as well as being worried that
you are falling short of others’ expectations.
Your dreaming mind wants you to feel more
confident and live life on your own terms. It’s
prompting you to focus more on your strengths
than your weaknesses. If, of course, the dream
corresponds literally with a real-life situation,
it’s simply reflecting your anxiety about being
ill-prepared. Sometimes a dream will take an
episode from your past, such as school days
or college, and use it to address your current
situation—don’t imagine it’s simply a case
of old worries resurfacing.
How would you interpret this dream?
BIRDS
A bird or flock of birds is generally a positive
sign—a symbol of freedom and joy as well
as your hopes and aspirations taking flight.
Pay attention to altitude: flying high can
be taken metaphorically. The type of bird and
its particular associations can be significant.
Eagles, hawks, falcons, and many other
predatory birds might appear threatening,
reflecting insecurity—although eagles can
also represent power and pride. Song birds can
suggest inspiration, hope, a fresh start. The owl
is traditionally a creature of wisdom and insight.
The magpie, a thieving bird, may hint that
someone is robbing you of something—perhaps How did it make you feel? Are there any recurring themes? Any related memories from the day before? What was the moon phase?
contentment or potential. If the bird is injured
in your dream, you may need to nurture yourself Excited Overwhelmed Anxious
back to well-being in some way, or possibly
Happy Confused Scared
there are flaws in a relationship. If you’re the
bird, perhaps there’s a situation you’re trying Emotional Worried Vulnerable
to fly away from. Relaxed Frustrated
