Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: Very Good. Synopsis: America is no longer a country but a multimillion-dollar brand, says Kalle Lasn and his fellow "culture jammers". The founder of Adbusters magazine, L asn aims to stop the branding of America by changing the way information fl ows; the way institutions wield power; the way television stations are run; and the way the food, fashion, automobile, sports, music, and culture indu stries set agendas. With a courageous and compelling voice, Lasn deconstruc ts the advertising culture and our fixation on icons and brand names. And h e shows how to organize resistance against the power trust that manages the brands by "uncooling" consumer items, by "dermarketing" fashions and celeb rities, and by breaking the "media trance" of our TV-addicted age. A powerful manifesto by a leading media activist, Culture Jam lays the foundations for the most significant social movement of the early twenty-first century -- a movement that can change the world and the way we think and live.

During 1999, a grueling, difficult season, Parcell's found his resolve and coaching ability tested a t every turn. It wasn't supposed to be like that, though. The two-time champion coach who had guided two different teams to the Super Bowl was expected by fans and pundits to drive the New York jets all the w ay. After all, they had reached the AFC Championship the year before. But f ate would not allow it. In the preseason, respected and longtime owner Leon Hess died, casting a season-long pall of uncertainty over the organization . During training camp, two players were arrested after a bar fight. In the final game of the preseason, Wayne Chrebet one of their top receivers, was injured. Then a huge blow-in the season opener Vinny Testaverde, the Pro B owl quarterback, ruptured his Achilles tendon and was out for the year. Thi ngs grew progressively worse-at one point Parcells had lost nine starters. He also endured personal suffering when his dear friend and agent Robert Fr aley died in the same plane crash that killed Payne Stewart. Parcells struggled to keep his team on track, trying to maintain their confidence in the face of enormous odds. "When you're losing, you coach better. You're on top of every detail.

Barack Obama and his radical team of self-professed socialists, fringe acti vists, and others are trying to remake the American way of life. They have used their new Democratic majority to launch an alarming assault on our cap italist system-while abandoning the war on terror, undermining our national security, and weakening our position in the eyes of our enemies. The "cand idate of change" is threatening to change our country irreparably, and for the worse-if we don't act to stop him now. Sean Hannity has been sounding the alarms about Obama and his agenda from the start. Now-in his first new book in six years-he issues a stirring call to action. Hannity surveys all the major Obama players-from the president's affiliation with radical theology to his advisers' history of Marxist activism, repression of the media, support for leftist dictators, and worse. He exposes their resulting campaign to dismantle the American free-market system and forfeit our national sovereignty. But he draws on the examples of Ronald Reagan and the GOP's Contract with America to show how conservatives can unite behind this country's most cherished principles and act now to get America back on the right track-while we still can.
