Lawrence Lessig, the reigning authority on intellectual property in the Internet age, spotlights the newest & possibly the most harmful culture war-a war waged against our children & others who create & consume art.

The hybrid economy will become ever more prominent in every creative realm-from news to music-and Lessig shows how we can & should use it to benefit those who make & consume culture. Remix is an urgent, eloquent plea to end a war that harms our children & other intrepid creative users of new technologies.

President Steve Wade believes his latest affair with Lucia Benoni, a beautiful Lebanese woman, is a secret. But when she is found murdered in mysterious circumstances, FBI Agent Kelly Smith is called in to investigate, uncovering links between Lucia, a hostile foreign power, a group of vicious white supremacists & a shadowy high-placed Washington figure known only as ' Fox'.
