Ignis Fatuus

By: Martin C C Graham

Ignis Fatuus: A mysterious light that tempts the weary traveler from the safe path and into peril. Bored with the ennui of everyday existence? The daily grind that propels you to a too little pension and aged decrepitude, which offers no blue-skied haven to enjoy the rewards of your labours? If you had the means to commit a crime with little or no chance of being found out, would you do it? Could such an opportunity exist? With meticulous planning and execution, total self-reliance and faith in your abilities, just such an opportunity could be engineered. But you have really got to want to do it. The rewards will bring financial freedom … or incarceration. If all goes as planned, you get your old job back! Follow the path of Connor, a man who ventures away from the constraints of society’s norms, who dares to take the gamble and establish that which police forces the world over are helpless against: an invisible criminal. The story follows Connor escaping to the highlands of Scotland after a journey that starts in sub Saharan Africa.

Steelpan in Education

A History of the Northern Illinois University Steelband

By: Andrew Martin,Ray Funk,Jeannine Remy

Founded by Al O'Connor in 1973, the steelband program at Northern Illinois University was the first of its kind in the United States. Thanks to the talent and dedication of O'Connor, Cliff Alexis, Liam Teague, Yuko Asada, and a plethora of NIU students and staff members, the program has flourished into one of the most important in the world. Having welcomed a variety of distinguished guest artists and traveled to perform in locales around the US and in Taiwan, Trinidad, and South Korea, the NIU Steelband has achieved international acclaim as a successful and unique university world music program. This fascinating history of the NIU Steelband traces the evolution of the program and engages with broader issues relating to the development of steelband and world music ensembles in the American university system. In addition to investigating its past, Steelpan in Education looks to the future of the NIU Steelband, exploring how it attracts and trains new generations of elite musicians who continue to push the boundaries of the steelpan. This study will appeal to musicians, music educators, ethnomusicologists, and fans of the NIU Steelband.

Heidegger in America

Heidegger in America

By: Martin Woessner

Heidegger in America explores the surprising legacy of his life and thought in the United States of America. As a critic of modern life, Heidegger often lamented the growing global influence of all things American. However, it was precisely in America where his thought inspired the work of generations of thinkers – not only philosophers but also theologians, architects, novelists, and even pundits. As a result, the reception and dissemination of Heidegger's philosophical writings transformed the intellectual and cultural history of the United States at a time when American influence was itself transforming the world. A case study in the complex and sometimes contradictory process of transnational exchange, Heidegger in America recasts the scope and methods of contemporary intellectual and cultural history in the age of globalization, challenging what we think we know about Heidegger and American ideas simultaneously.

Welcome to Hell

One Man's Fight for Life Inside the Bangkok Hilton

By: Colin Martin

Written from his cell and smuggled out page by page, Colin Martin’s autobiography chronicles an innocent man’s struggle to survive inside one of the world’s most dangerous prisons. After being swindled out of a fortune, Colin was let down by the hopelessly corrupt Thai police. Forced to rely upon his own resources, he tracked down the man who conned him and, drawn into a fight, he accidentally killed that man’s bodyguard. Colin was arrested, denied a fair trial, convicted of murder and thrown into prison, where he remained for 8 years. Honest and often disturbing, but told with a surprising humour, Welcome to Hell is the remarkable story of how Colin was denied justice again and again.
