Book Description
When Cyrille Regis became one of the first black players to be selected for the full England team, he was sent a package in the mail. Inside it was a silver bullet and a note that read: ‘You’ll get one of these through your knees if you step on our Wembley turf.’ In the 1978/79 football season Regis' club West Bromwich Albion, an unglamorous and little publicised club from the West Midlands, became the first British football team to field three black players: Cyrille Regis, Laurie Cunningham and Brendon Batson. They did so against the backdrop of the most divisive and poisonous racial tension in the UK’s history – a time when the National Front movement was at its most virulent. This book will tell the story of a defining and groundbreaking chapter in the history of British football and the country as a whole. The story is one about sport but also as much one about social change.

Book Description
Young, energetic, and determined undercover police officer Nicholas Grenier is the shining star of the Hartford Police Department. For two years Grenier infiltrated the top levels of the drug trade in New England and is preparing for the biggest bust of his career-a bust that will topple the narcotics underworld like dominoes. But the bust is almost botched and in the process Greniers cover is blown, ending his undercover narcotics career. Though he is quickly promoted to detective, he becomes increasingly depressed and angry. Fearing his career itself is coming to an end, Grenier takes a leave of absence, not planning to return. Unfortunately for Grenier, someone else has other plans for him. He calls himself The Nemesis. Having waited years for just the right detective to come forward to begin his murderous game, he draws Grenier into the investigation. With only his instincts to guide him, Grenier takes over the investigation of this uncanny killer who seems to know more about the Grenier than Grenier knows about himself. As the killer claims responsibility for three murders in the span of a week, Grenier desperately tries to find any clues that could lead him to this maniacal killer. It isnt until the detective accidentally comes across a misfiled case, that he suddenly learns that this is not the first case in which a member of his family has hunted a killer calling himself The Nemesis. The case will test the detectives mental and emotional strength as he finds himself investigating two cases, one in the present and one that occurred sixty years earlier. As the detective tries to uncover the truth, he is forced to confront family demons and will learn a horrible truth about his family and himself that will link him inexorably to the killer he is hunting.

Media Convergence
Author: Klaus Bruhn Jensen
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136997881
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
The development of digital media presents a unique opportunity to reconsider what communication is, and what individuals, groups, and societies might hope to accomplish through new as well as old media. At a time when digital media still provoke both utopian and dystopian views of their likely consequences, Klaus Bruhn Jensen places these ‘new’ media in a comparative perspective together with ‘old’ mass media and face-to-face communication, restating the two classic questions of media studies: what do media do to people, and what do people do with media? Media Convergence makes a distinction between three general types of media: the human body enabling communication in the flesh; the technically reproduced means of mass communication; and the digital technologies facilitating interaction one-to-one, one-to-many, as well as many-to-many. Features include: case studies, including mobile phones in everyday life, the Muhammad cartoons controversy and climate change as a global challenge for human communication and political action diagrams, figures, and tables summarizing key concepts beyond standard ‘models of communication’ systematic cross-referencing. Major terms are highlighted and cross-referenced throughout, with key concepts defined in margin notes.
