Don't Think of an Elephant: Know Your Values and Frame the Debate: The Essential Guide for Progressives
George Lakoff, UC Berkeley cognitive linguist and author of Moral Politics: How Liberals and Conservatives Think, has emerged as one of the leading progressive voices on the importance of language, the framing of political issues, and how to best define and communicate about values. Lakoff has advised top Democrats, such as Howard Dean, Barack Obama and now John Kerry's team, and appears regularly on television and radio programs, such as "Now" and "All Things Considered." To help progressives in the crucial last weeks before November 2, George Lakoff and Chelsea Green Publishing are taking on the challenge of getting out to all progressives a handbook for how to personally reach out to new and undecided voters, and to articulate a progressive vision for America. This book, Dont Think of an Elephant: Progressive Values and the Framing Wars, will be made available just after the Republican Convention, in early September.
Gladiators
Gladiators, the second powerHouse Books monograph by photographer Eric Payson, is a gritty, graphic look at the high-powered 2001 NBA playoffs, as seen from the perspective of an at-home television viewer, shot off a wide-screen television. These pictures are about more than mere basketball--they explore our obsession with entertainment and voyeurism, expose our lust for the controlled violence and stylized pageantry of spectator sports, investigate the innate themes of racial politics and male bonding, and examine the electronic medium that transmits it all. Payson, a child of the American media, turned his living room TV screen into a virtual box seat at the Roman Colosseum to create Gladiators, a compelling examination of our riveted fixation with professional sports.

Egon Schiele
Egon Schiele was regarded by many of his contemporaries as the predestined successor to Gustav Klimt, but died before he could fulfill his promise. His fascinating but not wholly admirable character is accounted for, at least in part, by his family background and upbringing. His father Adolf worked for the Austrian State Railways, and was in charge of the important station at Tulln where his son was born in June 1890.

Lucky Man by Michael J. Fox, ISBN 0375431411
In September 1998, Michael J. Fox stunned the world by announcing he had been diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease - a degenerative neurological condition. In fact, he had been secretly fighting it for seven years. The worldwide response was staggering, particularly to him. Fortunately, he had accepted the diagnosis and by the time the public started grieving for him, he had stopped grieving for himself. Now, with the same passion, humor, and energy that Fox has invested in his dozens of performances over the last 18 years, he tells the story of his life, his career and his campaign to find a cure for Parkinson's.
Combining his trademark ironic sensibility and keen sense of the absurd, he recounts his life - from his childhood in a small town in western Canada to his meteoric rise in film and television which made him a worldwide celebrity. Most important, however, he writes of the last 10 years during which - with the unswerving support of his wife, family, and friends - he has dealt...

Television at the Crossroads by George Wedell, ISBN 0333716469
Television had, until recently, a social and cultural purpose. In Britain, the BBC, ITV and Channel 4, were committed to develop and maintain these purposes. With the enlargement of the range of choices for viewers by digital television and the provision of access to cable and satellite TV and the Internet, the role of the terrestrial television channels is being diluted. The authors examine these effects and consider what can be done to maintain the standards and quality of television at a time of unlimited competition.
