Neil seemed like a dream come true for Rachel: a handsome, impeccably mannered, success-oriented Englishman, the fairytale husband she had dreamed of meeting. By the time Neil and Rachel Entwistle were husband and wife, living the good life in a New England town, it was too late to guess the truth: that beneath Neil's good looks and manners was a deceit and darkness... On a winter day in 2006, police came to the Entwistle home and found the decomposing bodies of twenty-seven-year-old Rachel and their nine-month old daughter Lillian Rose. Rachel had been shot in the head. Lillian in the stomach. And Neil was gone. Soon, authorities would begin a desperate search that would take them across the Atlantic to find Neil...and bring him to trial.

The Words and Music of Neil Young

The Words and Music of Neil Young

Ken Bielen

Praeger Publishers Inc
2008

Neil Young cannot be simply labeled. He has recorded as a solo artist, as a member of a hard rock trio, and with numerous other musician configurations. He can move from the soft sounds of early 1970s acoustic folk to the distorted, fuzz guitar sound of Crazy Horse. And his compositions have responded to musical trends from punk rock to grunge, and to social issues like racism, the Vietnam War, and the war in Iraq as well. The Words and Music of Neil Young follows the evolution of Young's musical work from the late 1960s to the present, with special focus on the enduring elements that have made his music successful. Individual chapters cover Young's musical output album by album, and song by song—from his debut work with Buffalo Springfield, to his time with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, to his solo work within various genres and for various causes (some political, but all artistic). In his conclusion, author Ken Bielen sums up Neil Young's accomplishments and places his work in the context of contemporary culture.

First Man: The Life of Neil A. Armstrong

First Man: The Life of Neil A. Armstrong

James R. Hansen

SIMON SCHUSTER
2018

Now a major motion picture, this is the first--and only--definitive authorized account of Neil Armstrong, the man whose "one small step" changed history. When Apollo 11 touched down on the Moon's surface in 1969, the first man on the Moon became a legend. In First Man, author James R. Hansen explores the life of Neil Armstrong. Based on over fifty hours of interviews with the intensely private Armstrong, who also gave Hansen exclusive access to private documents and family sources, this "magnificent panorama of the second half of the American twentieth century" (Publishers Weekly, starred review) is an unparalleled biography of an American icon. In this "compelling and nuanced portrait" (Chicago Tribune) filled with revelations, Hansen vividly recreates Armstrong's career in flying, from his seventy-eight combat missions as a naval aviator flying over North Korea to his formative trans-atmospheric flights in the rocket-powered X-15 to his piloting Gemini VIII to the first-ever docking in space. For a pilot who cared more about flying to the Moon than he did about walking on it, Hansen asserts, Armstrong's storied vocation exacted a dear personal toll, paid in kind by his wife and children. For the near-fifty years since the Moon landing, rumors have swirled around Armstrong concerning his dreams of space travel, his religious beliefs, and his private life. A penetrating exploration of American hero worship, Hansen addresses the complex legacy of the First Man, as an astronaut and as an individual. "First Man burrows deep into Armstrong's past and present...What emerges is an earnest and brave man" (Houston Chronicle) who will forever be known as history's most famous space traveler.

Think for a moment, if we could go back to the beginning of human civilization, what would be the issues you would change in order to make the world a better place to live. What laws, practices, traditions and even taboos need to be altered, or altogether erased for the future generation to live a happier life. Religion, power and wealth are certainly among the leading causes of war and disruption. On individual level, they translate to prejudice and greed. This book is an attempt to deal with these fundamental issues, both on practical as well as philosophical level. It is mostly in form of a dialogue. The intention is not to present an ideal or perfect solution, but to force the reader to think and ponder about these premises covered.

pokkari
Inhaltlich unver nderte Neuauflage. Der Mensch wei sich in der modernen Welt kaum noch zurecht zu finden. Medial ist er zu einem Sklaven trivialer Information geworden. Das globale Wirtschaftssystem beraubt den Einzelnen der Grundlage seiner freien Selbstbestimmung: der zusammenh ngenden Wahrnehmung von Realit t. Das vorliegende Buch widmet sich diesen Szenarien und vergleicht zwei der weltweit popul rsten Kulturkritiker unserer Zeit in ihrer anthropologischen Grundlegung. Letztlich f hrt es zu dem Schluss: , Der Einzelne kann seine eigene Identit t nicht mehr selbst kreieren, seine Vern nftigkeit wird untergraben, wahres Menschsein ist sowohl f r Neil POSTMAN als auch f r Richard SENNETT fast zur Unm glichkeit gewachsen." Das Buch richtet sich an Kulturinteressierte, kritische Nachfrager, Querdenker und Menschen, die sich mit aktuellem Zeitgeschehen konstruktiv auseinandersetzen.
