Download or read book The Monsanto Papers written by Carey Gillam and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lee Johnson was a man with simple dreams. All he wanted was a steady job and a nice home for his wife and children, something better than the hard life he knew growing up. He never imagined that he would become the face of a David-and-Goliath showdown against one of the world’s most powerful corporate giants. But a workplace accident left Lee doused in a toxic chemical and facing a deadly cancer that turned his life upside down. In 2018, the world watched as Lee was thrust to the forefront of one the most dramatic legal battles in recent history. The Monsanto Papers is the inside story of Lee Johnson’s landmark lawsuit against Monsanto. For Lee, the case was a race against the clock, with doctors predicting he wouldn’t survive long enough to take the witness stand. For the eclectic band of young, ambitious lawyers representing him, it was a matter of professional pride and personal risk, with millions of dollars and hard-earned reputations on the line. For the public at large, the lawsuit presented a question of corporate accountability. With enough money and influence, could a company endanger its customers, hide evidence, manipulate regulators, and get away with it all—for decades? Readers will be astounded by the depth of corruption uncovered, captivated by the shocking twists, and moved by Lee’s quiet determination to see justice served. With gripping narrative force that reads like fiction, The Monsanto Papers takes readers behind the scenes of a grueling legal battle, pulling back the curtain on the frailties of the American court system and the lengths to which lawyers will go to fight corporate wrongdoing.
Download or read book Eudora Welty written by Pearl Amelia McHaney and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-03-31 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pulitzer Prize-winning author Eudora Welty's writing and photography were the subject of more than one thousand reviews, of which over two hundred are collected here. From the first, reviewers loved Welty's language and disparaged her lack of plot. Their eager anticipation for the next book is rarely diminished by the shock of reading entirely different styles of writing. Her work was admired even as it challenged its readers. The reviews selected for reprinting here represent the diversity of Welty's reception and assessment. Reviews from small towns, urban centers, noted fiction writers, professional reviewers, academics, and everyday readers are included. The comments of reviewing rivals such as the New York Times and the New York Herald Tribune, Nation and New Yorker, when read side by side, reveal the nuances both of the reviewers and of the work of this important Southern writer.

Download or read book The 1970s and its Legacies in India s Cinemas written by Priya Joshi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1970s was a pivotal decade in the Indian social, cultural, political and economic landscape: the global oil crisis, wars with China and Pakistan in the previous decade, the Bangladesh war of 1971, labour and food shortages, widespread political corruption, and the declaration of the state of Emergency. Amidst this backdrop Indian cinema in both its popular and art/parallel film forms flourished. This exciting new collection brings together original research from across the arts and humanities disciplines that examine the legacies of the 1970s in India’s cinemas, offering an invaluable insight into this important period. The authors argue that the historical processes underway in the 1970s are important even today, and can be deciphered in the aural and visual medium of Indian cinema. The book explores two central themes: first, the popular cinema’s role in helping to construct the decade’s public culture; and second, the powerful and under-studied archive of the decade as present in India’s popular cinemas. This book is based on a special issue of South Asian Popular Culture.

Download or read book Glyphosate and the Swirl written by Vincanne Adams and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-05 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Glyphosate and the Swirl Vincanne Adams explores the chemical glyphosate—the active ingredient in Roundup and a pervasive agricultural herbicide—as a predicament of contested science and chemically saturated life. Adams traces the history of glyphosate’s invention and its multiple uses as activists, regulators, scientists, clinicians, consumers, and sick people try to determine its safety and harm. Scientific and political debates over glyphosate’s toxicity are agitated into a swirl—a condition in which certainty is continually contested, divided, and multiplied. This movement replicates the chemical’s movement in soils, foods, bodies, archives, labs, and legislative bodies, settling in some places here and in other places there, its potencies changing and altering what it touches with different scales and kinds of impact. The swirl is both an artifact of academic capitalism, activist tactics, and contested scientific facts and a way to capture the complexity of contemporary life with chemicals.
Download or read book Matrix for Assassination written by Richard Gilbride and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A phantom haunts America-the ghost of Dealey Plaza where President John F. Kennedy was shot on November 22, 1963. In Matrix for Assassination, author Richard Gilbride, a schoolboy in 1963 who became fascinated with the facts, condenses much of the research conducted in recent years after a mountain of new data became available from classified files with the passing of the John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Collection Act of 1992. Matrix for Assassination names the names. It offers simple and defensible solutions to many of the crime's lasting enigmas: Who were the shooters? Who forced Ruby to kill Oswald? Who orchestrated Kennedy's autopsy cover-up? What actually happened in the book depository? Were the Dallas police in on the plot? The Pentagon? LBJ? The CIA? Thoroughly referenced with 300 accompanying photographs, Matrix for Assassination is bookended by two events which draw it through the tabloids and into the X-Files: Marilyn Monroe's strange death and JFK's clash with an above-top-secret UFO cabal. Her murder was a prelude to Dallas; at the heart of the military-industrial complex dwelt a sinister darkness that originated in Nazi Germany.
Download or read book Death at SeaWorld written by David Kirby and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2012-07-17 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A scientific thriller that exposes the dark side of America's most beloved marine mammal park. It centers on the battle with the multimillion-dollar marine park industry over the controversial and even lethal ramifications of keeping killer whales in captivity. Following the story of marine biologist and animal advocate at the Humane Society of the United States, Naomi Rose, the author tells the story of the two-decade fight against public relations-savvy SeaWorld, which came to a head with the tragic death of trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2010. The author puts that horrific attack in context: Brancheau's death was only the most publicized among several brutal attacks at marine mammal theme parks. This book introduces real people taking part in this debate, from former trainers turned animal rights activists to the men and women that champion SeaWorld and the captivity of whales. As the story progresses and orca attacks on trainers become increasingly violent, the warnings of scientists fall on deaf ears, only to be realized with the death of Dawn Brancheau. Finally the book covers the media backlash, the eyewitnesses who come forward to challenge SeaWorld's glossy image, and the groundbreaking OSHA case that challenges the very idea of keeping killer whales in captivity.
