Two Sides to the Coin

The Politics of Consumption
Imagine a world where the outcome of political debate is arranged beforehand. Imagine a world where we are too busy working to care. Imagine a world where we get to feel good about ourselves. A farcical depiction of the struggles between the world's power brokers: the Holy Man and the Politician, and later on the Capitalist and Communist as well. They must eventually come to an end...
Thank You for Your Cooperation
Welcome to the Bunker, an orderly, underground utopia where everyone's needs have been satisfied.Psst! Why don't you take a break for a few stretches, citizen. Your supervisor won't notice.Haven't heard of Terry Renfield, eh? Maybe you should take this book. Because there's a lot more going on down here than you're probably aware. Terry Renfield knows. He broke through the cheap web of lies. I can show you how he did it.Control runs this place. It's staffed by Alpha clearance citizens, the brightest and the most trustworthy. They've been tasked with protecting the environment. Control protects us from all the terrorists, too. Traitors and social deviants are everywhere.You think I'm a terrorist. I can see it in your scared, little eyes. You've seen one too many episodes of Ten Things I Hate About Treason hosted by Van Johnson. You're about to tell me to go get dysentery and leave you alone before the security cameras catch us.We couldn't live without Control, could we?Think again!

Ms. Wellington's Oak Tree
A collection of short stories covering over a decade: the death of the gods; life in a conservative, American family; the Earth in an age when corporations have taken over; a stoner coming back from yet another trip to Amsterdam; a rebellious youth traveling through Italy during the Renaissance; likely love in an unlikely setting; psychotic daydreams; a fat man stuck in his neighbor's window; and the dark side of living in a Freemocracy.
A People's History of Florida, 1513-1876
Howard Zinn, author of A People's History of the United States, predicted that the bottom class perspective of history would eventually gain ground, enveloping the old way of narrating history as told by the powerful. Since then, numerous historical events have been redefined through the outlook of common people that were involved from the bottom-up, forever altering how we understand history. No more romantic diatribes glittered in patriotic myths. No more traditional heroes, standardized viewpoints, unquestionable "facts," or generalized falsehoods. Just plain raw truth that is not afraid to stampede powerful governments with the herd of popular outrage. A People's History of Florida follows the People's History tradition, documenting the active involvement of African-Americans, indigenous people, women, and poor whites in shaping the Sunshine State's history.
Social and Behavioral Science for Health Professionals
Health professionals’ interest in social and behavioral science is rapidly increasing due to the growing recognition that social factors such as income, education, race, gender, and age all impact individuals’ health. These and other social conditions also shape patients’ illness experiences, the ways that they interact with health care providers, and the effectiveness of with which health professionals provide care. Understanding these social determinants and applying them to clinical practice is a major challenge for healthcare providers, which is why programs and accrediting bodies have been including more social and behavioral science content into the curricula for medical, nursing...
Your Call Is Important To Us
Welcome (back) to the Bunker, an orderly, underground utopia where everyone's needs have been satisfied. Barney Max is a trustworthy citizen with an impeccable record of achievement. But one daystretch on his way to Mars for an interplanetary conference, he finds himself added to the Thousand Most Wanted List. For no apparent reason at all. And he's allowed to walk free. Thus begins Barney Max's unexpected and entirely unwelcome journey. Deprived of his daily comforts, chased by a persistent headache (not to mention armed guardians from Defense, a secret society of vengeful cybots, and an angry mob of former employees), he is forced to confront a reality he has struggled his whole life to deny. The second in the Bunker series of sci-fi adventure novels, Your Call Is Important To Us can be read independently, although it is best enjoyed in the company of its predecessor, Thank You For Your Cooperation.
