Gen X at Middle Age in Popular Culture
Born roughly between 1964 and 1980, Generation X has received much less critical attention than the two generations that precede and follow it: the Baby Boomers and Millennials. This essay collection examines representations of Generation X in contemporary popular culture, including in television, movies, music, and internet sources. Drawing on generational theory, cultural studies theory, race theory, and feminist theory, the essays in this volume consider the past identities of Generation X, relationships with members of younger generations, modern appropriation of Generation X aesthetics, interactions of Generation X members with family, and the existential values of Generation X.
The Films of John G. Avildsen
The life and work of American director John G. Avildsen is thoroughly examined in this detailed filmography and critical study. Each of the most significant films made by the Oscar-winning Avildsen is given a separate chapter, including such critical successes as Joe and Save the Tiger, and box-office blockbusters Rocky and its sequels and the Karate Kid series. The authors' observations on these and other titles--some well known, others less familiar--are enhanced by extensive production notes, and by commentary from John G. Avildsen himself. Cinema historian Jean Bodon of Sam Houston State University provides a foreword.
Summary of Sell the Way You Buy by David Priemer
You must choose between two machines that cost about the same. One firm’s salesperson calls and emails, but clearly you’re just a target. Another firm’s salesperson is considerate, respectful, empathetic and focused on your needs. Who gets the sale? It’s obvious, but then why do salespeople opt for high-pressure tactics instead of empathy? Sales expert David Priemer says they don’t know any better and shows why empathy, science and execution beat high pressure every time.

Always Turn Down the First Offer
Always Turn Down the First Offer: Memoirs of a Sportscaster is much more than a diary of one person's recollections working on television and radio in markets ranging in size from the smallest worked in Los Alamos, New Mexico, to the largest, the Big Apple, New York City. It portrays a nostalgic journey through a foregone era from the late 1960s to the somewhat more recent early 2000s. It gives you insight into a sportscaster's up-close and personal dealings on a daily basis with some of America's greatest athletes, teams, coaches, and other broadcasters of that time period. No punches are pulled in describing the highs and lows and the politics involved in the business of broadcasting. For those who may be interested in entering the profession themselves, there are lessons to be learned here.
