Gen X TV
No generation eludes definition as much as Generation X. Rob Owens opens with a history of network and cable television since the birth of Generation X, but goes on to explore the symbiotic relationship between television and this largely misunderstood age group. From the first megahit The Brady Bunch to today's Friends, Owen unflinchingly describes the boob tube as the ubiquitous babysitter for millions of young people. Television, Owen maintains, consumes innocence as viewers encounter countless episodes of society's woes, from political strife and environmental decimation to everyday violence and crime.
Genetic Stigma in Law and Literature
This book critically analyses the way in which traditional sociocultural and legal biases might be perpetuated against those with unknown – or unknowable – genetic ancestries. It looks to law and works of literature across differing eras and genres focussing upon such concepts as inherited stigma, illegitimacy, orphanisation, adoption, othering, reunion, and the ‘right’ to access truths that relate to one’s original identity. Law’s role in such matters is often limited (or usurped) by custom, practice, or lingering superstitious beliefs; the importance of oral and written testimony is therefore highlighted. Characters include abandoned or orphaned figures from folk and fairy tale...
The Rise of Man
Biracials, Half-breeds, Mulattos and Mongrels At times they were unwanted, ridiculed and ostracized by society. Many were abandoned at birth and forced to endure rejection and scorn for a circumstance of birth they had no say in. Nearly all of them struggled with the anguish of not being fully accepted by any race. In the second decade of the 21st Century a twist of fate would change all of that and catapult them to the pinnacle of humanity where their heroism and sacrifice will become legendary. After Logan, the first MAN, led the nuclear powers of Earth to a victory over the Hadaran expeditionary force he then set about preparing mankind for the return of the fierce aliens in far greater numbers. Only multi-race humans, those having the prerequisite diverse genetic make-up for enhancement to a super-human genome-adept by the Trans Cerebral Imprinter, will stand in the way of total domination and enslavement of the human race. With the integration of advanced alien technology and Earths preeminent scientific minds, Logan builds an army of genome-adepts, the most lethal fighting force in human history and leads them in a desperate battle for Earth.
Nebula
It is the twenty-sixth century, and after colonizing much if the solar system, mankind is ready to set their sights on exploring the galaxy. In the first part of his new science fiction space saga, author Brian Mais tells the harrowing and deadly tale of mankind's first encounter with a bloodthirsty alien race bent on humankind's extermination. After abruptly losing contact with a space probe sent to document an Earth-like planet in another solar system, mankind sends a human expedition to this alien solar system to investigate the planet known as Darwin. But shortly after arriving, the human expedition team finds more than a planet void of animal life, but an enemy far more deadly and ruthless than any to ever walk the Earth. Forced to evade merciless aliens, nightmarish creatures, and the wrath of the universe's most feared rulers, the humans will have to pit their allegiance with a mysterious band of rebel aliens in order to save themselves and mankind from extinction. Whether a hardcore lover of science fiction or a reader of all genres, Nebula will keep you hooked until the shocking end.
