"Bob Hughes...finest water polo player in U.S. history" - Peter Cutino, 1995 Bob Hughes was the gentle giant of U.S. swimming and water polo. Of all two-sport athletes of his day, he was the most feared by his opponents and idolized by his teammates. Hughes was an innovative and dominating sprinter, individual medley swimmer and breaststroke champion who developed his own unique, all underwater approach to swimming the breaststroke, winning him a World's Record in the 100yd Breaststroke. Hughes was the driving force of U.S. Water Polo teams at two Pan American Games and two Olympic Games, he was the dominent American water polo player for over a decade, and a fearsome opponent who could, on occasion, throw the ball through the goal and you with it, if you thought you could hang on to his throwing arm. Bob Hughes duplicated Johnny Wesimuller's feat of competing in two water sports at the same Olympic Games, swimming and water polo...a feat no other American swimmer has duplicated since. He was a classic waterman who was also a top surfer and diver, as well as a creative artist and builder...a true renaissance man. Johnny Weismuller and Duke Kahanamoku would have been in good company with Bob Hughes.

With an introduction by novelist David Vann In April 1992, Chris McCandless set off alone into the Alaskan wild. He had given his savings to charity, abandoned his car and his possessions, and burnt the money in his wallet, determined to live a life of independence. Just four months later, Chris was found dead. An SOS note was taped to his makeshift home, an abandoned bus. In piecing together the final travels of this extraordinary young man's life, Jon Krakauer writes about the heart of the wilderness, its terribly beauty and its relentless harshness. Into the Wild is a modern classic of travel writing, and a riveting exploration of what drives some of us to risk more than we can afford to lose.

This is the story of the work of the original NASA space pioneers; men and women who were suddenly organized in 1958 from the then National Advisory Committee on Aeronautics (NACA) into the Space Task Group. A relatively small group, they developed the initial mission concept plans and procedures for the U. S. space program. Then they boldly built hardware and facilities to accomplish those missions. The group existed only three years before they were transferred to the Manned Spacecraft Center in Houston, Texas, in 1962, but their organization left a large mark on what would follow.Von Ehrenfried's personal experience with the STG at Langley uniquely positions him to describe the way the group was structured and how it reacted to the new demands of a post-Sputnik era. He artfully analyzes how the growing space program was managed and what techniques enabled it to develop so quickly from an operations perspective. The result is a fascinating window into history, amply backed up by first person documentation and interviews.

What does 'anticapitalism' really mean for the politics and culture of the twenty-first century? Anticapitalism is an idea which, despite going global, remains rooted in the local, persisting as a loose collection of grassroots movements and actions. Anti-capitalism needs to develop a coherent and cohering philosophy, something which cultural theory and the intellectual legacy of the New Left can help to provide, notably through the work of key radical thinkers, such as Ernesto Laclau, Stuart Hall, Antonio Negri, Gilles Deleuze and Judith Butler. Anticapitalism and Culture argues that there is a strong relationship between the radical tradition of cultural studies and the new political movements which try to resist corporate globalization. Indeed, the two need each other: whilst theory can shape and direct the huge diversity of anticapitalist activism, the energy and sheer political engagement of the anticapitalist movement can breathe new life into cultural studies.
