Controversy Creates Cash
Under Eric Bishoff's watch as president of WCW, the company went head to head with Vince McMahon's WWE and beat them at their own game before WCW itself spectacularly imploded. But by then, Bishoff had made an indelible mark on televised wrestling, producing shows that had appeared more dangerous, more sexy, and more edgy than anything that had come before. He did this to such an extent that in 2002, McMahon seized the chance to bring in his former nemesis as General Manager of RAW; since then, true to form, Bishoff regularly surprises fans with matches that would once have been unthinkable for television. In this revelatory look at his life and career, Bishoff frankly discusses the things he did, both right and wrong, as he helped shape the sports entertainment industry into today's billion dollar business.

Spiritual Merchants
They can be found along the side streets of many American cities: herb or candle shops catering to practitioners of Voodoo, hoodoo, Santería, and similar beliefs. Here one can purchase ritual items and raw materials for the fabrication of traditional charms, plus a variety of soaps, powders, and aromatic goods known in the trade as "spiritual products." For those seeking health or success, love or protection, these potions offer the power of the saints and the authority of the African gods.

The Politics of International Health
Tracing the history of the Children's Vaccine Initiative (CVI), this book examines its successes and failures in promoting the development of both new and improved vaccines for the Third World. The CVI has achieved many successes, including making vaccination a top international public sector priority. Most of its failures have stemmed from the often bitter competition between the fledgling Initiative and the notoriously turf-conscious and inefficient World Health Organization (WHO), over their respective roles in championing vaccines. Vaccines are the most inexpensive means of improving the health and lowering the mortality of people in the Third World, where infectious diseases kill millions of children every year. As a result of the biotechnology revolution, it is possible that a whole array of new vaccines can be created for diseases which are not yet preventable. What has stood in the way of this major medical breakthrough has been that vaccine "product development" has been in the hands of commercial companies, whose activities are dominated by the need for maximizing profit, which the Third World poor cannot generate.

All In The Family
The 1970s: Vietnam, Watergate, inflation, and social unrest. Those were the days! On January 12, 1971, a new television series premiered that would address such topics in a comical and satirical manner. The series would sit at the top of the ratings for the majority of its run, redefining the structure of situation comedy, and would go on to be one of the most influential sitcoms in television history. All in the Family dominated the airwaves in the 1970s and reflected an ever-changing society during one of America’s most challenging decades. David Maska assesses the entire series, season by season, and how it continued to evolve and fit into television’s landscape from its inception in the late 1960s as a pilot that nobody wanted to touch, through its celebrated run as the number one show in America, and finally its demise as Archie Bunker’s Place in the early 1980s. With an annotated episode guide for all 13 total seasons (over 300 episodes!), this is a book you can keep next to you for reference while you watch and enjoy this classic series.
