The Sinister Beauty of Carnivorous Plants
De Gruyter Oldenbourg
Schiffer
Ozsoz analyzes the phenomenon in which an emerging market economy uses another country’s currency, like the U.S. dollar, in lieu of or in addition to the local currency, posing risks to the health and stability of its own banking system.
A serious student of these unusual plants, Kaelin reveals them through his gorgeous, close-up photographs, which use chiaroscuro to create drama, depth, and mystery. See story and photos, next spread.

Brand Management Strategies: Luxury and Mass Markets
Edelson’s book teaches basic fashion illustration skills and practical techniques for “live fashion sketching.” The book includes 500 pre-printed model templates. The sketchpad pages are designed so that they can be photocopied without the templates, leaving just the sketch.
Manhood today is under siege, Goldblatt says. Right Tool for the Job is a comic account of one man’s struggle to honor his testosterone heritage, with varying results.
Fairchild Books/Bloomsbury Publishing Underpinned by the author’s experience as a professor and brand consultant, this book details the steps to develop, build, and sustain a successful brand strategy and business.
