No Name Creek: Another Christmas Story
When he was a child, the author, Mark Gibson, was struck by a car. This accident left him in a coma. During this time, although asleep in this world, he was wide awake on the other side. Awake and exploring the unimagined, and unknown places that exist in their own space and time, he feared he was lost forever and would never find his way back home. If only his Heavenly Father could hear his unspoken prayers. If only there was still a place for him in this world. As it turned out, his prayers were heard, and answered, and he awoke in the presence of his beloved mother, filled with stories and questions and worries. Who could ever tell, how could he ever fit back in...
Culture and Power
Power has long been a central preoccupation of social and cultural analysis. Culture and Power focuses on power to shape a history of Cultural Studies. A critical analysis of the nature and purpose of Cultural Studies, the book assesses the development of the discipline from the work of Michel Foucault in post-war France and the Birmingham Centre for Cultural Studies in the 1970s to the expansion of the field in the United States and present-day concerns with culture, politics and ethics.As Cultural Studies has shifted, the concept of power has changed and become more problematic. Moving on from the celebrated 'culture wars' - and battles over language, objective knowledge and disciplinary values and meanings - Culture and Power unravels the social, ideological and political knots bound up in the concept of power. In doing so, the book charts not only the history but also the possible future of Cultural Studies.

The Beat Stops Here
"Master conductor Mark Gibson addresses the technique of conducting as an extension of intimate knowledge of the score to the hands and arms, employing a variety of everyday activities and physical motions (brushing the dog, Tinkerbelle, the 'door knob') to describe the physical aspects of the role.
