Alan Lennox Boyd
Alan Lennox-Boyd served as Colonial Secretary from 1954-1959, a decisive period in the history of British decolonisation. Tracing the development of his idiosyncratic brand of right wing politics, this biography presents a portrait of a complex man.
Cain
Baptist minister John Wesley Cain, an earthy, theologically unconventional Vietnam veteran, deals with the possible loss of his position; problems with his son; a troubled teen-aged musician and his drunken Vietnam-vet father; hypocritical church members, and his own shortcomings and ambitions. He tries to save the marriage of a man and wife, both of whom have been unfaithful. Present in this matter is the intrigue surrounding the man, a lawyer/legislator/bagman who is the operator in a kickback scheme perpetrated by casino operators interested in bringing riverboat gambling to the state. Cain doesn't break the law but he pushes the envelope and makes some hypocrites pay.
The Last Dinosaur
Depicts what life might have been like for the last dinosaurs on earth.
Teen Spirits
Relating to both the practice of teaching media studies and also to theoretical questions within media and cultural studies, this study examines pop music, media studies and the micro-cultural politics of adolescence. It argues that media education has neglected pop music, and that, as something of enormous significance in the lives of young people, it merits a serious place in the field.; The author provides accounts of media studies in action, including detailed accounts of classroom discussions, interviews with students and teachers, examples of students' work and their biographical reflections. He links this to broader debates both within cultural studies and around the place of pop music in young people's lives.; "Teen Spirits" should be of interest to students of media and cultural studies, as well as to practicing teachers, and readers with an interest in questions of youth and identity.
From Higher Places
A young woman is facially disfigured in an apparently motiveless attack. As her relationships with those around her change, she is forced to confront her own shortcomings. Gradually it becomes apparent that she has been a pawn in the machinations of an exclusive and secretive club for the seriously rich that, unknown to her, has been a malign influence on her life and family since childhood. When her face is restored by a skilled surgeon the motive behind the apparently senseless attack is revealed. But does she stand a chance of bringing those responsible to justice, or will she only succeed in creating some very powerful and dangerous enemies?
