Acid Clouds
2022 || Hardcover || Niels Schrader e.a. || nai010 uitgevers publishers
Acid Clouds is an atlas and anthology of datacenters that maps the material traces of virtual data in the Dutch landscape. It investigates the massively resource-intensive and earthbound properties of digital storage, and questions the image of large-scale data repositories as clean, sterile and environmentally-friendly domains. The book brings together data of more than 100 datacenters across the Netherlands with texts on ecological, architectural, economical, political and digital righ...

Laurent-Benoît Dewez (1732–1812), Architect in the Age of Enlightenment
Designing for Government, Church and Court in the Southern Low Countries
2025 || Hardcover || Dirk Van de Vijver || Leuven University Press
Laurent-Benoît Dewez (1731-1812), court architect to Charles of Lorraine, was the most outstanding architect of his time in the Southern Low Countries. After studying in Italy and serving in the eminent office of Robert Adam in London, Dewez developed a personal, classical style that came to embody the “Eglise Belgique” under the Austrian Habsburgs. He designed numerous castles, abbeys, and churches across Belgium, but time has not been kind to his legacy: of his 80 architectural project...

Filtration Technology
2020 || Hardcover || Rob van den Brink || MK Publishing
Hydraulic and lubrication systems have developed significantly in the past sixty years. The range of applications continue to expand. In modern systems, the application of proportional valves is a particularly important stimulus for the application of increasingly complicated and more accurate hydraulic drive systems.
With the availability of more accurate production techniques that enable the possibilities of minimal tolerances, the operating pressures have more than doubled in the last 25 y...

Hugo Grotius, Annals of the War in the Low Countries
Edition, Translation, and Introduction
2022 || Hardcover || Jan Waszink || Leuven University Press
The Annals of the War in the Low Countries is one of Hugo Grotius' lesser-known works. Grotius expresses a wayward view of the early revolt, which he presents not as a united battle for the true faith and the ancient liberties of the land but as a protracted and painful struggle, not only with the great power of Spain, but also with discord, selfishness and religious fanaticism among the Dutch. To convey this complex and controversial vision of the foundational years of the Dutch Republic, Gr...

An Opaque Mirror For Trajan
A Literary Analysis and Interpretation of Plutarch's 'Regum et Imperatorum Apophthegmata'
2024 || Hardcover || Laurens Van der Wiel || Leuven University Press
Plutarch’s Regum et imperatorum apophthegmata (Sayings of Kings and Commanders) holds a peculiar position in his oeuvre. This collection of almost 500 anecdotes of barbarian, Greek, and Roman rulers and generals is introduced by a dedicatory letter to Trajan as a summary of the author’s well known and widely read Parallel Lives. The work is therefore Plutarch’s only text that explicitly addresses a Roman emperor and is likely to shed light on his biographical technique. Yet the collecti...

Roof & Restitutie Deel II ENG
The Tragic Fate of the Van den Bergh Family and the Search for a Painting
2024 || Hardcover || Eelke Muller e.a. || Waanders Uitgevers
Can parents ever overcome the loss of their children? Theirs was a happy family: Jaap and Ellen van den Bergh and their two daughters, Rosemarie and Marianne. Then the German army invaded the Netherlands in May 1940 and everything changed. The family was of Jewish descent and they were no longer sure of their lives. By selling a serene painting by Pissarro, The Girl Lying in the Grass, they funded the expenses of their hiding place. Jaap and Ellen van den Bergh survived the war. For a long ti...

Dutch Extreme Violence in the Indonesian War of Independence, 1945-1949
2022 || Hardcover || NIOD e.a. || AUP Algemeen || met inkijkexemplaar
Indonesia declared its independence on 17 August 1945, two days after the Japanese capitulation that marked the end of World War II in Asia. Refusing to recognize Indonesian independence, the Netherlands attempted to gain control over the decolonization process by force, leading to four years of arduous negotiations and bitter warfare.
