> Tableaux depicting life in hell, better known as Diableries, were all the rage in nineteenth century France but over the years the stereo images made after those clay tableaux were scattered and their hidden meaning lost. When first published in 2013, this book featured all but two of the 184 scenes in the series. Remarkably, the two lost remaining views have now been found! This 2018 Complete Edition features the full compliment, to be enjoyed just as their creators intended in magnificent 3-D.

Are there any other famous scientist/musicians called Brian?
James Williamson got an electronics engineering degree in 1982. He immediately joined AMD where he worked for 15 years on tooling around chip design.
In 1997, Sony hired him as their Vice President of Technical Standards, where he did such good work that he later won ANSI’s Standards Leadership Award. He stayed in the role for twelve years before accepting an early retirement buyout.
But he was only sixty years old and didn’t feel like retiring. Instead, he went back to his pre-degree job: playing lead guitar for Iggy Pop and the Stooges.
