Beast. Monster. Savage. Psycho. The glowering menace of Mike Tyson has spooked us for almost two decades. & still we remain fascinated. Why? Ellis Cashmorea s answer is disturbing: white society has created Tyson as vengeance for the loss of privilege produced by civil rights. Cashmorea s eviscerating analysis of Tysona s life & the culture in which he grew up rose to prominence & descended into disgrace provokes the reader into re--thinking the role of one of the most controversial & infamous figures of recent history. Told as an odyssey--style homeward journey to Tysona s multi--pathological origins in the racially--explosive ghettos of the 1960s Tysona s story is part biography part tragedy & part exposition. His associations with people like Al Sharpton Don King & Tupac Shakur shaped his life; & events such as the O J Simpson trial & the Rodney King riots formed a turbulent background for the Tyson psychodrama. Over the course of an epic boxing career Tyson was transformed from the most celebrated athlete on earth to a primal malevolent hate--figure. Yet even after being condemned as a brute Tyson retained a power -- a power to captivate. Cashmore reveals that the sources of that power lie as much in us as in Tyson himself. ...

Mikhail Gorbachev is living proof that the word is mightier than the sword; that ideas not armies change the world. Dedicated to ridding humanity of the threat of nuclear annihilation Gorbachev called for multilateral action to forge a common future at a time when the superpowers were at loggerheads. Two key words Perestroika & Glasnost characterised his philosophy
- words that came to represent change & freedom in the universal consciousness. Gorbachev's radical thought ignited sweeping reforms in the Soviet Union inspired liberation movements across Eastern Europe & thawed decades of Cold War enmity. For Gorbachev environmental matters have always been inextricably bound up with peace security & social justice. The transition from head of state of the USSR to president of a non-governmental organisation Green Cross International was therefore a natural one. Mikhail Gorbachev: Prophet for Change" traces the evolution of his vision in particular the origins & outcomes of his environmental agenda which belong to the important legacy of the changes Gorbachev initiated in the Soviet Union & the world. Without these critical initiatives the many advances of today's global environmental movement would not have been possible. This anthology featuring select speeches & writings as well as tributes from political contemporaries & partners in the environmental & peace movements has been compiled by Green Cross International to celebrate Gorbachev's 80th birthday. The tributes from colleagues & friends
- ranging from political heavyweights George Bush & Margaret Thatcher to renowned champions of sustainability Maurice Strong & Achim Steiner
- reflect the esteem in which Mikhail Gorbachev is held & the special place he occupies in the history of our times."
