Book Description
Caught pants down by a dance hostress in a Laotian nightclub; hitching a ride into battle with a chain-smoking pilot in a plane filled with cans of leaking kerosene; fielding cables that arrive in the dead of night from an editor screaming for urgent copy overnight… It’s all in a day’s work for the foreign correspondent, says author Dennis Bloodworth, who ought to know. He took it all in his stride during the more than 30 years that he spent as foreign correspondent of the London Observer. For those who have always wondered how the news gets into the papers, here’s the story behind the stories, and even some stories that couldn’t be told

Samuel Beckett and BBC Radio
Author: David Addyman
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1137542659
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
This book is the first sustained examination of Samuel Beckett’s pivotal engagements with post-war BBC radio. The BBC acted as a key interpreter and promoter of Beckett’s work during this crucial period of his "getting known" in the Anglophone world in the 1950s and 1960s, especially through the culturally ambitious Third Programme, but also by the intermediary of the house magazine, The Listener. The BBC ensured a sizeable but also informed reception for Beckett’s radio plays and various “adaptations” (including his stage plays, prose, and even poetry); the audience that Beckett's works reached by radio almost certainly exceeded in size his readership or theatre audiences at the time. In rethinking several key aspects of his relationship with the BBC, a mix of new and familiar Beckett critics take as their starting point the previously neglected BBC radio archives held at the Written Archive Centre in Caversham, Berkshire. The results of this extended reassessment are timely and, in many cases, quite surprising for readers of Beckett and for scholars of radio, “late modernism,” and post-war British culture more broadly.

Electrogravitics Systems
Author: Thomas Valone
Publisher: Integrity Research Institute
ISBN: 9780964107007
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Discovered in 1918 by a professor, electrogravitics has been put to the test decade after decade by aviation industries and the military. It is an anomalous propulsion force from a high voltage capacitive charge, similar to an electrokinetic force. In the 1950s, T. Townsend Brown recommended a "flying wing" model to the Naval Research Lab for its implementation and years later, the B-2 bomber fulfilled this vision. Electrogravitics Systems includes historical documents, patents, and an exciting article by Dr. Paul LaViolette on how the B-2 uses such an energy-efficient, futuristic propulsion concept today.
