Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Aurelio Peccei - Later life

After the war, Peccei was engaged in the rebuilding of Fiat. Furthermore he was engaged in various of the private and public efforts then underway to rebuild Italy, including the founding of Alitalia. In 1949 he accepted to go to Latin America for Fiat, to restart their operations, as Fiat operations in Latin America had been halted during the war. He settled in Argentina, where he lived for nearly a decade with his family. He quickly realised that it would make sense to start manufacturing locally and set up the Argentine subsidiary, Fiat-Concord, which built cars and tractors. Fiat-Concord rapidly became one of the most ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Aurelio Peccei - Club of Rome

Peccei's speech caught the attention of Dean Rusk, then American Secretary of State, and he had it translated into English and distributed at various meetings in Washington. A Soviet representative at the annual meeting of ACAST (the United Nations Advisory Committee on Science and Technology), Jermen Gvishiani, Alexey Kosygin's son-in-law and vice-chairman of the State Committee on Science and Technology of the Soviet Union, read the speech and was so taken by it that he decided he should invite the author to come for private discussions, o ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Arthur Kornberg - Early life

Born in New York City he was the son of Joseph and Lena Kornberg. His parents emigrated to New York from Austrian Galicia (now part of Poland) in 1900 before they were married. His paternal grandfather had changed the family name from Queller (also spelled Kweller) to avoid the draft by taking on the identity of someone who had already completed military service. Joseph married Lena Katz in 1904. He worked as a sewing machine operator in the sweat shops of the Lower East side of New York for almost 30 years, and when his health failed, opene ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Arthur Kornberg - Scientific research

The feeding of rats was boring work, and Kornberg became fascinated by enzymes. He transferred to Dr Severo Ochoa's laboratory at New York University in 1946, and took summer courses at Columbia University to fill out the gaps in his knowledge of organic and physical chemistry while learning the techniques of enzyme purification at work. He became Chief of the Enzyme and Metabolism Section at NIH from 1947-1953, working on understanding of ATP production from NAD and NADP. This led to ...

Kornberg married Sylvy Ruth Levy, also a biochemist of note, on November 21, 1943. She worked closely with Kornberg and contributed significantly to the discovery of DNA polymerase. The day after he was awarded the Nobel prize, she was quoted in a newspaper as saying "I was robbed". They had three sons: Roger David Kornberg (1947) (currently Professor of Structural Biology at Stanford University), Thomas Bill Kornberg (1948) (who discovered DNA polymerase II and III in 1970 and is now a biochemist at UCSF), and Kenneth Andrew Kornberg (1950) (an architect specialising in the design of biomedical ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Mary Carleton - Early life

Carleton was born Mary Moders in Canterbury. According to later accounts she married a journeyman shoemaker named Thomas Stedman and gave birth to two children who died in infancy. She later left her husband to move to Dover where she married a surgeon, prompting her arrest and trial in Maidstone for bigamy. After the trial she visited Cologne where she had a brief affair with a local nobleman. He gave her valuable presents, pressed her for marriage and began the preparations for a wedding. She, however, slipped out of Germany with all the presents and most of her landlady's money, r ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Mary Carleton - Life of crime

She returned to London in 1663 and took on the persona of an orphaned Princess van Wolway from Cologne. She claimed that she was born in Cologne and that her father was Henry van Wolway, Lord of Holmstein and that she had fled a possessive lover. She used this guise to marry John Carleton, brother-in-law of the landlord of the Exchange tavern which she frequented. After the wedding, however, an anonymous letter exposed her. Her trial in 1663 was the first recorded appearance of Mary Carleton. She was charged for masquerading as ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Mary Carleton - Incarceration and execution

She was once arrested after stealing a silver tankard, and was sentenced to penal transportation and sent to Jamaica. However, after two years she returned to London, again pretending to be a rich heiress and married an apothecary at Westminster. Naturally, she stole his money and left him. In December 1672 Carleton was captured when a man who was searching for stolen loot recognized her. On January 16, 1673 she was tried in the Old Bailey. Because she had returned from penal transportation without permission, she received a ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Jim Steranko - Quotes

Steven Ringgenberg, Betty Pages Magazine #4 (Spring 1989) [1]: "Steranko's Marvel work became a benchmark of '60s pop culture, combining the traditional comic book art styles of Wallace Wood and Jack Kirby with the surrealism of Richard Powers and Salvador Dali. Steeped in cinematic techniques picked up from that medium's masters, Jim synthesized a style he christened 'Zap Art' — an approach different from anything being done in mainstream comics, though it did include one standard attraction: lots of females in skintight, se ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Ed Koch - Political stance

Koch has always been a registered Democrat, but he ran as both a Democrat and a Republican in the 1981 election for Mayor. He has often deviated from the conventional liberal line, strongly supporting the death penalty and taking a hard line on "quality of life" issues, such as giving police broader powers in dealing with the homeless and favoring (and signing) legislation banning the playing of radios on subways and buses, these positions prompting harsh criticism of him from the local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union and many ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Berkeley Breathed - Personal life

In 1986, Berkeley broke his back in an ultralight-plane crash and almost lost his right arm to a boat propeller. Breathed and his wife, wildlife photographer and psychotherapist, Jody Boyman, and their daughter Sophie live in Southern California. He is reportedly a very private person, and although he has given interviews to on-line magazines such as The Onion and Salon, he has rarely given face-to-face or telephone interviews and resists talking about himself. He and his wife support animal rights and his book Flawed Dogs: The Year End Leftovers at the Piddleton 'Las ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Alistair MacLean - Style of writing

Compared to other thriller writers of the time, such as Ian Fleming, MacLean's books are exceptional in one way at least: they are absent of sex and short of romance because MacLean thought that such diversions merely serve to slow down the action. Nor do they resemble the more recent techno-thriller approach. Instead MacLean lets little hinder the flow of events in his books, making his heroes fight against seemingly unbeatable odds and often pushing them to the limits of their physical and mental endurance. MacLean's heroes are usually cal ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - William Dalrymple - Books

His first book, In Xanadu, was the result of his journey across the Asian continent, from the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem to the site of Shangdu, famed as Xanadu in English literature, in Outer Mongolia. This was yet another attempt to retrace Marco Polo's footsteps along the so-called Silk Road, and along the Karakorum highway, opened in the late 1980s. The journey was taken on a multitude of types of transport and lasted for over six months. The purpose of the journey as outlined in the book was to investigate the world of the Silk Road as Polo would ...

Book of Life: Encyclopedia II - Rudolf Otto - Work

Otto's most famous work, The Idea of the Holy (published first in 1917 as Das Heilige), is one of the most successful German theological books of the 20th century. It has never been out of print and is now available in about 20 languages. The book defines the concept of the holy as that which is numinous. Otto explained the numinous as a "non-rational, non-sensory experience or feeling whose primary and immediate object is outside the self". He coined this new term based on the Latin numen (deity). This expression is etymologically un ...
