From Telenovelas to Netflix: Transnational, Transverse Television in Latin America

By: Joseph Straubhaar,Melissa Santillana,Vanessa de Macedo Higgins Joyce,Luiz Guilherme Duarte

This book is about television in Latin America. Its national and regional industries create most television programming there within genres developed over time in the region. However, part of the programming has always come from the U.S., Europe and elsewhere. With cable, satellite and now streaming TV, that inflow of foreign programming has increased substantially. While many in the audience still prefer national or regional programs for their cultural proximity, an increasing number among the upper-middle and middle classes, particularly the young, are turning to the new foreign services, like Netflix, Amazon and Disney for class distinction, cosmopolitanism or other motives. Among the television industries, global, regional and national actors are creating a variety of programs and channels (broadcast, pay-TV and streaming) to segment and appeal to different parts of the audience.

Britain's Ten Most Wanted

By: Vanessa Howard

Murder is rare. Rarer still are those killers who get away with it - but they are out there, walking our streets. Included in this in-depth book are some famous cases that generated enormous publicity, such as the disappearance of Susy Lamplugh and the murder of Jill Dando. Despite extensive coverage in the press and the police following thousands of leads, somehow the killers slipped away. Other cases are less well known, but are terrifying in their brutality. Like that of Janet Brown, a nurse, whose naked body was discovered at her home on a quiet morning in April. Or mother-of-four Sandra Phillips, who was savagely beaten, strangled and assaulted at the sex shop she worked at. Discover the shocking story of the brutal ritual killing of an unknown young African boy, given the name Adam by officers. His torso was found floating in the Thames and the subsequent investigation revealed a cruel, dark underworld in modern Britain. For the first time, established true crime author Vanessa Howard brings together the cases that continue to perplex the British police and asks new questions to try to uncover the identity of the predators that still live among us.

A Brummie in the Family

Family and Local History in Birmingham

By: Vanessa Morgan

Family history is one of the most popular hobbies of recent years, with many looking into their roots and finding out about their past. In this book you will learn how to find dates and events in your ancestors' lives, and it will help put flesh on the skeletons too, giving clear instructions of how to start researching your family history in Birmingham. You will then begin to learn the full story of how Birmingham grew and how our 'Brummie' ancestors lived, played and worked. This book is not just a 'how to' book, but also tells the story of how Birmingham expanded during the nineteenth century, as our ancestors moved here to find work in the new industries. Some lived in the cramped conditions of back-to-back housing, whilst others prospered and joined the ranks of the more well-to-do. Not just the wealthy, but the poor, too, all played their part in the development of this now-sprawling city.
