Michael Crichton meets Stephen King in the Shaman Circle. Middlesex Hospital, like most small hospitals, is struggling to stay afloat on a sea of uncertain revenues, but the new long-term ventilator facility just completed will command $40,000 a month for every patient. It promises to lift the hospital out of the whirlpool of debt in which it finds itself. There is just one problem: the ground it's built on was a barren circle of land, feared and, at the same time, considered sacred by the local Indian tribes. Dave Hollings is the night-shift respiratory supervisor at Middlesex. Rumors surrounding the construction of the new facility raise his concern for his coma patient's well-being and sa...

O. J. Simpson. The Central Park jogger. Bensonhurst. William Kennedy Smith. Rodney King. These are more than crimes and criminals, more than court cases. They are cultural events that, for better or worse, gave concrete expression to latent social conflicts in American society. In High-Profile Crimes, Lynn Chancer explores how these cases became conflated with larger social causes on a collective level and how this phenomenon has affected the law, the media, and social movements.

The New York City Transit Strike of 1966 occurred during the formative period of labor relations between government and municipal employees, and served as an impetus to convince legislators in many jurisdictions that legislation was needed to regulate public sector bargaining. Marmo analyzes the role of the media in public sector bargaining, and demonstrates how heavy reliance and manipulation of the media by interested parties affected the outcome of political decision making during one of the most significant strikes ever to take place in the history of public sector negotiations in the United States. The book also tells the dramatic story of a confrontation between urbane, Yale-educated John Lindsay and the crusty, acid-tongued union antagonist Michael Quill.
