Abandon all fossil fuels or face an unstoppable plague... In the wake of the Baghdad disaster, President Amy Coffman is battling to get her administration back on track when eco-terrorists threaten to unleash a gruesome contagion, one that transforms ordinary people into blood-thirsty savages.

As the US military-industrial complex mobilises to neutralise the terrorists, Coffman and her allies discover a new and unexpected opportunity - weaponise the virus and seize ultimate power. But first, the dominoes have to fall. The targets are global cities with teeming populations, and Coffman intends to watch them all burn as the horrifying pandemic spreads across the planet.

Designing Clothes
Author: Veronica Manlow
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351522639
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
Fashion is all around us: we see it, we buy it, we read about it, but most people know little about fashion as a business. Veronica Manlow considers the broader signifi cance of fashion in society, the creative process of fashion design, and how fashion unfolds in an organizational context where design is conceived and executed. To get a true insider's perspective, she became an intern at fashion giant Tommy Hilfi ger. Th ere, she observed and recorded how a business's culture is built on a brand that is linked to the charisma and style of its leader. Fashion firms are not just in the business of selling clothing along with a variety of sidelines. Th ese companies must also sell a larger concept around which people can identify and distinguish themselves from others. Manlow defi nes the four main tasks of a fashion fi rm as creation of an image, translation of that image into a product, presentation of the product, and selling the product. Each of these processes is interrelated and each requires the eff orts of a variety of specialists, who are often in distant locations. Manlow shows how the design and presentation of fashion is infl uenced by changes in society, both cultural and economic. Information about past sales and reception of items, as well as projective research informs design, manufacturing, sales, distribution, and marketing decisions. Manlow offers a comprehensive view of the ways in which creative decisions are made, leading up to the creation of actual styles. She helps to defi ne the contribution fashion fi rms make in upholding, challenging, or redefi ning the social order. Readers will fi nd this a fascinating examination of an industry that is quite visible, but little understood.
