Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. PrefaceKiss Off began as a question, not a story.What happens when nostalgia meets biotechnology?What happens when fame becomes replicable?And more dangerously - what happens when humanity realizes it can think faster together than alone?This novel is not merely about a band. It is about acceleration.At the surface, Kiss Off follows Austin Hope - the ambitious son of a legendary rock promoter - who refuses to let legacy die. Armed with inheritance money, biotechnology, and a reckless belief in spectacle, he resurrects a myth. Through recovered DNA and cutting-edge neural engineering, he brings back four twenty-year-old replicas of rock icons and launches them as a new band: Kiss Off.But the story was never meant to stay on stage.The band Kiss Off begins as a resurrection - a bold, controversial experiment to revive the energy, the charisma, and the thunderous power of classic arena rock. Yet from their first appearance, it becomes clear that these four men are not relics. They are not tribute performers. They are not puppets.They inherit DNA, but not destiny.They inherit history - but choose authorship.As the world watches their return at Budokan, the spectacle transforms into something far more profound. The music changes. The crowd changes. The tempo of conversation changes. And then the world itself begins to shift - subtly at first, then unmistakably. What appears to be a global "pause" begins to ripple across continents - a voluntary moment of synchronization that no government commands, no corporation owns, and no band controls. Kiss Off ultimately becomes a story about sovereignty - not domination. It asks whether humanity needs leaders to synchronize, or whether synchronization is simply the removal of interference.The name "Kiss Off" carries layered meaning.At first, it sounds rebellious - dismissive, aggressive, defiant. But within the arc of the story, it evolves. It becomes an act of letting go. A refusal to centralize power. A symbolic departure from myth.The band does not seek to control the field they ignite. They step back from it. They refuse ownership. And in doing so, they prevent the very singularity the world fears.This is not a dystopia.It is not utopia.It is not a warning about artificial intelligence or cloning run amok.It is a meditation on speed.Modern humanity already moves faster than any previous generation. Information outruns reflection. Reaction outpaces deliberation. We live inside compression - and most of us barely notice it.Kiss Off asks: What if that compression became visible?What if we recognized it?What if we chose to regulate it ourselves?The band Kiss Off is fictional, but the forces in this story are not. Technology continues to reduce latency between signal and response. Social networks synchronize billions in moments. Markets shift in milliseconds. Culture forms in real time.The difference between collapse and clarity may simply be whether alignment remains voluntary.Austin Hope begins the story chasing legacy.He ends it confronting irrelevance.Because the real protagonist is not a promoter, nor a scientist, nor a band.It is the field - the invisible network of human cognition that becomes slightly faster, slightly clearer, slightly more fluent.And perhaps slightly closer to a horizon we do not yet understand.At 02:17 - the quiet recurring moment in this book - the world pauses. Not because it must. Not because it is told to. But because it can. Kiss Off is about that choice.And the unsettling possibility that once humanity experiences reduced noise. it may never fully return to delay.Thank you for stepping into th Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. 179-191 pages with charts and bibliography. Royal octavo (10" x 6 3/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Ethnology Volume XXXIII Number 2 complete issue. First edition. To say that the subject of ethnicity has received considerable attention in recent years is to state the obvious. As Nash (1989:126-27) points out, the amount of literature on ethnicity is so vast that he wonders what "can be said that is fresh, novel, significant, and possibly of reasonable validity? . . . " Despite this discouraging observation, this essay should show that there still are significant things that can be said about ethnicity. Most of the recent publications are attempts to account for the persistence of ethnic identity in the modem social context (e.g., Alba 1990; Waters 1990) and much less has been written about the role of ethnicity in determining socioeconomic status and economic opportunity. This article explores the role of five ethnic groups in the first 50 years of the commercial salmon fishery of Puget Sound. Condition: Edge wear with bumped corners else very good.…
