Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The Oxford Illustrated Encyclopedia of the Universe is an authoritative and accessible reference book, giving a comprehensive overview of astronomy. Every important aspect and all major constituents of the universe are described in alphabetically arranged entries. The volume includes current theories of the birth and evolution of the universe and of individual stars and their sometimes catastrophic destruction as supernovae; neutron stars; pulsars; and black holes; coverage of the planets and satellites of the solar system; and planetary exploration. The book explains in clear, lay language the fundamental principles of physics-- for example, the theory of relativity--that underpin our understanding of astronomy. The editor has structured the book to provide, through cross-references, an explanation of the more technical entries. Readers are helped to understand complex theories through simple, colorful line drawings, as well as more elaborate artwork. Biographical entries on key astronomers add the human dimension to the study of the universe; surveys, scattered over several entries, are given of the centuries of intellectual upheaval and progressive thinking that have brought us to the present day. A concise chart of the evolution of astronomy is also included. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. …

Published as part of the American University Studies series, it focuses on the period from Genet's birth in 1910 to 1951, the year before the publication of Jean-Paul Sartre's monumental study, Saint Genet. Core Argument: Challenging the Legend - The central thesis of the book is that much of what was traditionally accepted as "fact" about Genet's life - specifically his identity as a "thief, male prostitute, and social outcast" - was a carefully constructed myth or "deceit" fostered by Genet himself and later solidified by Sartre. The "Deceit": Stewart and McGregor argue that Genet deliberately falsified or exaggerated his criminal past and his suffering in reformatories (like Mettray) to create a persona of the ultimate "existentialist hero" or "sainted" criminal. Archival Corrections: The authors use extensive archival research, including police records and administrative documents, to correct the chronology of Genet's life. They show that while he was indeed a petty criminal and a vagabond, his actual "criminality" was often less dramatic than his literary depictions suggested. Literary vs. Biographical Truth: The book examines how Genet transformed the mundane reality of his life into the high-style, poetic "truth" found in works like Our Lady of the Flowers and The Thief's Journal. Key Thematic Focus: - Childhood and Mettray: A detailed look at his early years and his time at the Mettray Penal Colony, distinguishing between the "Mettray of Legend" and the historical reality. - Military Service: The authors provide new data on Genet's stints in the French military and his subsequent desertions. Sartre's Influence: The biography serves as a "pre-Sartrean" corrective, arguing that Sartre's philosophical interpretation of Genet actually hindered a true understanding of the man by accepting Genet's self-created legends as biographical fact. Authorship and Academic Context: Harry E. Stewart and Rob Roy McGregor are scholars of French literature who spent years cross-referencing Genet's fictionalised memoirs with official French records. This work is considered essential for Genet scholars because it provides a sober, document-based foundation that contrasts with the more hagiographic or philosophical biographies published in the mid-20th century. …
