ISBN 10: 0679755101 ISBN 13: 9780679755104
Language: English
Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 7th Printing. 309 Pages Indexed. An incisive and boldly original critique of the news media's domination of Ameerica's political process. Since Watergate the road to the presidency has led through the newsrooms, which in turn impose their own values on American politics. The results are campaigns that resemble inquisitins or contests in which the candidates' game plans are considered more important than their goals. Lucid and ahhoristic, historically informed and as timely as a satellite feed, the author mounts a devastating inquest into the press's hijacking of the campaign process---and shows what citizens and legislators can do to win it back. Contents in 6 Chapters: Prologue-Truth and Falsehood on the Campaign Trail, TehMiscast Institution, Of Schemas Game and Governing, Images of the Game They Play, Reporters' Issues versus Candidates' Issues, News Truth and That State of Nature We Call Election Coverage, and How to To Fix the Campaign- Shorten It. Plus Bibliography, Postscript, and Notes.

Uncle Tungsten: Memories Of A Chemical Boyhood
Published by Random House Inc. - Vintage Books, New York, 2002
ISBN 10: 0375704043 ISBN 13: 9780375704048
Language: English
Trade Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. Third Printing. 337 Pages Indexed. Tight bright book with no marks or stamps. Faultless interior. Long before Oliver Sacks became a distinguished neurologist and best- selling writer, he was a small English boy fascinated by metals-also by chemical reactions (the louder and smellier the better), photography, cuttlefish, H. G. Wells, and the periodic table. In this endlessly charming and eloquent memoir, he chronicles his love affair with science and the magnificently odd and sometimes harrowing childhood in which that love affair unfolded. We meet Sacks's extraordinary family, from his surgeon mother (who intro- duces the fourteen-year-old Oliver to the art of human dissection) and his father, a family doctor who imbues in his son an early enthusiasm for housecalls, to his Uncle Tungsten, whose factory produces tungsten-filament lightbulbs. We follow the young Oliver as he is exiled to a grim, sadistic boarding school to escape the London Blitz, and later watch as he sets about passionately reliving the exploits of his chemical heroes-in his own home laboratory. By turns elegiac and comic, Uncle Tungsten is the story of a brilliant young mind springing to life.

A chld of the Renaissance with a precocious mind and a talent fro drawing, Alessandra is intoxicated by the painter's abilities. But the burgeoning relationship is interrupted when Alessandra's parents arrange her marrige to a wealthy, much older man. Meanwhile Foorence is changing, increasingly subject to the growing suppression imposed by the fundamentalist monk Savonarola, who is seizing religious and political control. Alessandra and her native city are caught between the Medici state, wit its love of luxury, learning, and dazzling art, and the hellfire preaching and increasing violence of Savonarola's reactionary followers. Played out agianst this turbulent backdrop, Alessandra's married life is a misery, except for the surprising freedom it allows her to pursue her powerful attraction to the young painter and his art.
