Media Meddlers: The Real Truth About the Murder Case Against Rubin “Hurricane” Carter

By: LeAD DetectiVe Vincent J. De Simone Jr.,JAmeS V. De Simone

Media Meddlers is a provocative book that not only addresses one of the nation’s most controversial murder cases, but also indicts a sacred institution— the media—for the way some of its members used the power of the First Amendment to turn justice into injustice. Seldom has there been written a book that so clearly exposes the abuse of freedom of speech. Early on the morning of June 17, 1966, Rubin “Hurricane” Carter, then at the height of his career as a professional middleweight boxer, and his friend, young John Artis, walked into the Lafayette Grill in Paterson, New Jersey, and blasted away with a shotgun and .32 caliber pistol, killing two men and a woman. Another man, shot through the head, miraculously survived.

Beyond Measure: The Hidden History of Measurement from Cubits to Quantum Constants

By: James Vincent

A vibrant account of how measurement has invisibly shaped our world, from ancient civilizations to the modern day. From the cubit to the kilogram, the humble inch to the speed of light, measurement is a powerful tool that humans invented to make sense of the world. In this revelatory work of science and social history, James Vincent dives into its hidden world, taking readers from ancient Egypt, where measuring the annual depth of the Nile was an essential task, to the intellectual origins of the metric system in the French Revolution, and from the surprisingly animated rivalry between metric and imperial, to our current age of the “quantified self.” At every turn, Vincent is keenly attuned to the political consequences of measurement, exploring how it has also been used as a tool for oppression and control. Beyond Measure reveals how measurement is not only deeply entwined with our experience of the world, but also how its history encompasses and shapes the human quest for knowledge.

Proceedings of the 11th International Symposium on Bioluminescence & Chemiluminescence

Asilomar Conference Grounds, Pacific Grove, Monterey, California, USA, 6-10 September 2000

By: James F. Case

Light-emitting reactions occur in some living organisms, and are also now extensively exploited by industry and various branches of biomedical science. Luminescence from the natural world, particularly from marine organisms, is increasingly being harnessed by genetic and chemical manipulation to enhance the quality of human life. This volume contains cutting-edge contributions from most of the world's leading researchers in this field. It presents an up-to-date compilation of the range of biomedical, strategic and ecological applications of chemiluminescence and bioluminescence. It documents and highlights the rapid advance in knowledge concerning both the mechanisms and the uses of luminescence, and covers all the important developments of recent years.

Frantz Fanon

By: James S. Williams

A biography of the revolutionary philosopher and psychiatrist. Doctor, militant, essayist, ambassador, teacher, journalist, pan-Africanist, Frantz Fanon sought to decolonize mid-twentieth-century culture as he embodied a new kind of intellectual. Born in colonial Martinique, he fought for France during World War II but later renounced his citizenship and fought in the Algerian War of Independence. This book emphasizes Fanon’s gift for self-invention and performance as it follows his short but extraordinary life and explores how his pioneering work in psychiatry influenced his revolutionary philosophy.
