Her minimalist approach utilized natural light and a simple camera setup, allowing her to seize spontaneous moments that revealed the essence of her subjects. Throughout her career, Bown received numerous accolades, including being appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in 1985 and Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 1995. Her work has been exhibited at prestigious institutions like the National Portrait Gallery in London and is held in various permanent collections.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Cover Art: Luke Dodd (illustrator). 1st Edition. © 2000: 2nd in the 'Manifold' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: In the second volume of Stephen Baxter's epic 'Manifold' series Reid Malenfant inhabits a mirror-image universe to that of 'Time' ("'Time' is pacy, visionary, extravagantly imagined" - The Times). In 'Space' life is everywhere. "If they existed, they would be here" - this is the Fermi paradox concerning the existence of extraterrestrials. Once it confirmed Malenfant's opinion that humanity was alone in the universe. But when Nemoto, a Japanese researcher on the Moon, discovers evidence of extraterrestrial intelligence in the solar system, the same paradox provokes both Malenfant and Nemoto to question 'why now'? Because, suddenly, there are signs of intelligent life in deep space in all directions. Deeper layers of Fermi's paradox unravel as robot-like aliens, the Gaijin, seem to be e-mailing themselves from star to star, and wherever telescopes point, far away, other alien races are destroying worlds. In the face of this onslaught from the stars, Malenfant sets out alone in a salvaged antique spacecraft to make contact with the Gaijin. In response the Gaijin come to earth in their beautiful silver flower-ships - but not to save mankind. They trawl through the archives of human culture for their own mysterious reasons. In their wake, recreated marvels of prehistoric life once more roam the Earth, including those hominids driven to extinction by man. But the Gaijin have more questions than answers. As other aliens approach in a blaze of destruction there is no comfort in recalling Nemoto's certainty that this has all happened before, over and over. But in the soul of Malenfant, in the dreams of the new Neanderthals, and in Nemoto's obsessive loathing of all aliens there are glimmers of hope that the cycle can be broken:- Review(s): "Stephen Baxter is the most acclaimed, most accomplished and most ambitious of a new generation of scientifically trained authors who are expanding the vision of science fiction and taking it to a new golden age:- (original cost £16.99).
