The attacks of 9/11 led to a war on Iraq, although there was neither tangible evidence that the nation's leader, Saddam Hussein, was linked to Osama bin Laden nor proof of weapons of mass destruction. Why, then, did the Iraq war garner so much acceptance in the United States during its primary stages? Mass Deception argues that the George W. Bush administration manufactured public support for the war on Iraq. Scott A. Bonn introduces a unique, integrated, and interdisciplinary theory called "critical communication" to explain how and why political elites and the news media periodically create public panics that benefit both parties. Using quantitative analysis of public opinion polls and presidential rhetoric pre- and post-9/11 in the news media, Bonn applies the moral panic concept to the Iraq war. He critiques the war and occupation of Iraq as violations of domestic and international law. Finally, Mass Deception connects propaganda and distortion efforts by the Bush administration to more general theories of elite deviance and state crime.

A new printing of Steven Youell's lecture notes, originally from 2009.These notes focus on two themes: Leveraging things you already know so you can create and increase your repertoire AND supplying you with Jaw Dropping effects that aren't hard to do.They have something for every skill level, from beginner to expert. There's even a nearly self-working platform effect that will lay waste to any audience, laymen OR magicians.* Russian RouletteA deck is shuffled, cut and given to a spectator who is asked to deal single cards face down until he feels like stopping. He looks at the card on which he stops and replaces it in the deck, reassembling and shuffling the deck. The deck is handed to you. You fan the cards towards yourself and upjog six cards so the entire audience can see the backs of them. Five different spectators each eliminate one of the cards. There is one upjogged card left. It is the selection. This requires almost no sleight of hand and can be done as a platform or close-up trick! * TrapJacksIf you've been practicing the Riffle Pass for years with no particular purpose in mind, this is the routine for you. It does not require your pass to go totally unnoticed. In fact, it's the perfect way to get over the fear of ANY pass.Steven hesitated to publish this because at first reading it will seem like just another "Sandwich Trick," but it's not. He's used this particular item in different forms for over 15 years and it has a spectacular finish. In fact, he's done this at The Magic Castle for over 10 years!* My Name Is NobodyAn Ace cutting effect that has a presentation AND a finish! Most Ace cutting effects lack a compelling presentation, but you'll be relieved to know that you now have one. This can be adapted to most other Ace cutting effects so even if you've been practicing one for years waiting for a REAL presentation, you'll be happy to know that you haven't wasted your time! * Reading The Tells and NumerAlphatologyTwo effects that demonstrate the idea of leverage. They only require one sleight, look impossible and can be adapted to your performing style and audience because you can play them in different ways. Not only that, they can be done as platform tricks OR close up. With ONE sleight you get TWO effects that look totally different from the perspective of the audience.Although the actual effect has been around (and largely ignored) for around 50 years, the presentations transform it into two effects you'll USE for 50 years. * +1The spectator cuts the deck freely into four piles. The top cards are taken from each pile and shown to be random. You explain that only in the movies and dime novels do card cheats deal themselves a pat hand. You then state that real cheats make sure they only beat the sucker by a small amount and thus avoid suspicion. You then demonstrate what you mean by cutting to the card one value higher than each of the four random cards. This effect comes with an alternative method which is guaranteed to fry both laymen AND magicians! * The Key CardThe most versatile key card in existence. OK, maybe there's some out there Steven doesn't know about! It never fails, it's easy to hide and it can be found instantly with a tabled riffle shuffle, your thumb or your pinky. In other words you don't have to go through any gyrations to find it. You can gain control over it instantly using just the natural way you handle cards. Additionally, it's ambidextrous!* Elegant SolutionsAn essay that describes one of Steven's approaches to magic. It teaches you not only how he thinks about presentations, but also about leveraging things you already know into phenomenal magic. It will not only save you hours and hours of time, but will jump start your creative juices! The people who have already read this have all told Steven that it is very thought provoking and it has changed the way some of them think about magic!BONUS: Ron Bauer's technique for The Convincing Control

The Republicans control the Supreme Court, the Senate, Congress and the White House. They dominate the mass media. They will use any and all means necessary to win in the upcoming election. Sheldon Rampton and John Stauber are two of the most important analysts of the propaganda used by the rich and the powerful to control the citizens of the most powerful democracy on earth. Here they show how the techniques developed by Bush's team in Texas, in the 2000 and 2002 elections, and in the run-up to the invasion of Iraq will be deployed over the next six months to secure a second term for their boss. The presidential campaign of 2004 is the latest instalment of a psychological warfare operation against the American people that is unprecedented in both scale and sophistication. Success could spell disaster for America and the world. George W. Bush has presided over the greatest security disaster in US history, vandalised the US economy, flouted international law and savaged the Constitution. Now he wants four more years to finish the job. Here's how he plans to do it.

From the taunting videos of Osama Bin Laden to the partisan euphoria of the embedded journalist, from the visual rhetoric of the anti-globalisation movement to the empire of spin to the scalding polemics of American campaign advertising, propaganda is back. This book provides a full and detailed analysis of the phenomenon of propaganda, its meaning, content and urgent significance. It is one of the most original works ever published on the subject. While it applies a conceptual approach to the study of propaganda, the theoretics are grounded in practice. Insightful case studies on Symbolic Government, negative campaign advertising, single issue group polemic and corporate propaganda, culminate in a vivid narrative of the role of propaganda in driving the remorseless new conflict which began on September 11 2001. Contents Part One: Defining what and reasoning why 1. A question of meaning 2. Explaining propaganda Part Two: A conceptual arrangement 3. An essential trinity: rhetoric, symbolism and myth 4. Elements of propaganda: foundations; why we need enemies; enmity in action Part Three: case studies in propaganda 5. Privatising propaganda: the rise of the single issue 6. Evangelism and corporate propaganda 7. Propaganda and the symbolic state: a British experience 8. 9-11 and war 9. Weapons of mass deception: propaganda, the media and the Iraq war Afterword - The impact of propaganda Index Nicholas O'Shaughnessy is Professor of Marketing and Communication at the University of Keele
