‎Panamarenko's assemblages of flying machines, autos and vessels are objects designed to make adventure a reality, not intended as a quick escape from reality. One of the most original contemporary Belgian artists, he is an innovator in all respects. Although his works appeal to the imagination of the beholder, they are often underpinned by scientific calculations. Published on the occasion of an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in Antwerp, this book offers a comprehensive and inspired look at Panamarenko?s fanciful universe. ‎

‎As explained in the preface, "this fourth volume of the Engineering Index represents the continuation of the work originally started by the late Professor J. B. Johnson in the Journal of the Association of Engineering Societies in 1884, and turned over by that Association to the Engineering Magazine, at the close of 1895. The previous volumes, published respectively in 1892, 1896 and 1901, covered with increasing fullness and thoroughness the field of technical engineering periodical literature, and in the present volume every care has been taken to maintain and advance the standard set by its predecessors".

‎Rare first edition of the first book on Darwinism, printed in Istanbul. The work in Ottoman language is a translation of ""Wahrheit und Irrthum im Darwinismus"" (The Truths and Mistakes of Darwinism) by Eduard von Hartmann (1842 - 1906), first published in 1875. The translator Memduh Süleyman, who also commented the book, considered the natural evolution the biggest mistake of the Darwinism. Memduh Süleyman (1889?-1920) was an important author and translator of the last years of the Ottoman Empire. His most famous work is a book on Nietzsche, ""Nietzsche Hayat? ve Felsefesi"", from 1912, which he co-wrote in together with Ahmet Nebil-Baha Tevfik-Memduh.The book was published amidst the Ottoman debate on the Darwinism. The first mentioning of the term was made in 1863 in a magazine Mecmua-i Fünun by Münif Pasha, who was at the time serving as a minister of education and did not believe, that the development of science would or should affect the religion. In the time of the publication of the present work, Darwin's works were not yet translated into Ottoman. The first translation of On the Origin of Species in the Muslim world, was only issued in Arabic in 1918 in Cairo. Translated were only the first six chapters. For more chapters were subsequently added in 1928.OCLC list three institutional examples (Leiden University Library, Library of Congress, Huntington Library, Art Museum, & Botanical Gardens).‎

‎volume X; The History of Achilles is a series of tapestries first commissioned by Rubens's second father-in-law Daniel Fourment, a tapestry-dealer in Antwerp. Very probably it was also Daniel Fourment who asked his famous son-in-law to provide the preparatory oil sketches, modelli and cartoons for the series. This cycle is not a very big project compared with other famous series designed by Rubens. Nevertheless, as Begemann puts is, " the excellence of the oil sketches and the modelli, and the sophistication of the artist's interpretation of the subject, make the series stand out as a major work ".
