Book Description
Humankind must learn to progress without contention. HERE WE ARE at the beginning of a new millennium and many of our social systems and ways of governing seem to fit like clothes from the back of the closet -- too tight and out of date. It's time to try something different, something more practical, fair and fun. The Velvet Monkey Wrench presents a way for humankind to exist on this planet, in balance, sensibly using what Earth has to offer. It explains a way to create a modern governmental structure, which gives the People, finally, the right to choose their present and future: a blueprint for a consensual society. Complete directions enclosed! This book first appeared in the dark days of the nuclear arms race, the bombing of Cambodia, Kent State, Watergate, and Wounded Knee. Today, exhausted by consumerism, dog-eat-dog competition, and more wars, we're still asking, "How-do-we-get-out-of-this-mess?" It's time to give John Muir's ideas a fresh look. Dead-on or off-the-wall, his prescient concepts will challenge your imagination. Here is a no-holds-barred practical plan, infused with satirical audacity and a warm, caring humanity.

Book Description
My name is Mark Manilow. I’m a LA screenwriter. Here’s my recipe for a cocktail called “Romantic Hollywood Sex Comedy.” Start with my estranged wife, who left me two years ago to become a juggler. Pour in my ensuing emotional tailspin. Blend with a brutal case of writer’s block. Mix with my last-gasp writing job, a ridiculous porn flick called Broken Boner. Add in the Broken Boner porn star, who seduces me into an ill-fated partnership. Throw in the gun-toting producer and eccentric Montecito billionaire, who hire me to adapt the phone book into a movie. Combine with the return of my headaches and a trip to an ancient Chinese healer, where I meet the healer’s beguiling granddaughter—my monkey wrench. Serve with wonderment as to whether or not I’ll find a way to settle things with the juggler, break it off with the porn star, and fall in love with the monkey wrench…or if anyone will stop laughing long enough to notice.

Book Description
Though The Velvet Underground were critically and commercially unsuccessful in their time, in ensuing decades they have become a constant touchstone in art rock, punk, post-punk, indie, avant pop and alternative rock. In the 1970s and 80s Lou Reed, John Cale and Nico produced a number of works that traveled a path between art and pop. In 1993 the original band members of Reed, Cale, Morrison and Tucker briefly reunited for live appearances, and afterwards Reed, Cale and briefly Tucker, continued to produce music that travelled the idiosyncratic path begun in New York in the mid-1960s. The influence of the band and band members, mediated and promoted through famous fans such as David Bowie and Brian Eno, seems only to have expanded since the late 1960s. In 1996 the Velvet Underground were in inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, demonstrating how far the band had traveled in 30 years from an avant-garde cult to the mainstream recognition of their key contributions to popular music. In these collected essays, Pattie and Albiez present the first academic book-length collection on The Velvet Underground. The book covers a range of topics including the band's relationship to US literature, to youth and cultural movements of the 1960s and beyond and to European culture - and examines these contexts from the 1960s through to the present day.
