Book Description
A computer game so nauseatingly gory that it came with a barf bag. Bright druggy graphics that sickened scores of proper English parents. Gameplay so violent that it inspired one of Britain's most infamous killing sprees. Soft & Cuddly, released for the ZX Spectrum in 1987, wasn't quite any of these things. But in an age of manufactured moral panics, John George Jones's fluorescent punk manifesto sure pissed off a lot of people. Featuring new interviews with the the game's creator, Jarett Kobek's book dives deep into the gritty world of British yellow journalism, snarky computer fanzines, DIY home programming, and Soviet bootleg mixtapes. If Margaret Thatcher's Conservative Party was right that "video nasties" like Soft & Cuddly were the epitome of 80s depravity, then this book is headed straight to Hell.

A.D.D. & Me

Pages : 31
Book Description
Whether you have A.D.D., A.D.H.D., know someone with A.D.D., or have heard all the opinions regarding its authenticity, the only way to truly understand the disorder—to see beyond the person’s supposed inabilities—is to see the conditions through the eyes of someone who constantly struggles to make it through each day with his or her self-esteem in tact. An open-minded person will try to see the other side of A.D.D.: the positive side, the wonderful potential hidden behind the anger. A.D.D. and Me, written from a child’s viewpoint, introduces the reader to joyful energy, creative genius and the gentleness that is often veiled by sullenness brought on by continual rejections and misguided advice. Can a child with A.D.D. grow up to become a productive, successful adult with structured work ethics, capable of making a beneficial contribution to society? Read A.D.D. and Me, a rhyme in scrapbook format, and discover the delightful answer for yourself.
