Book Description
Apparently you can sue the Mafia and live to tell about it. In his dynamic autobiography, Doug Dane explains the extraordinary circumstances that led to this conflict when his life was threatened, and how he survived. This true story about the author and his wife, Kerri James, is told in graphic terms in HOLDING ON - I Sued the Mafia and Lived to Tell About It (The Story of Sundance Dane and Kerri James). The book took ten years to write. It is the story of a man whose life occupation had been waste recycling, processing, trucking and disposal, with a lifelong goal of developing a system of waste recovery parks throughout the world. An amateur boxer, Dane still competed at age 61, against opponents 30 and 40 years younger than himself. "I have won the Southern California Golden Gloves Championship several times, and I believe that much of age is a state of mind." He was motivated to write his memoir by the brave people who, no matter what the cost, never give up, and "when I re-met my first love." About the Author: Originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan, first-time author Doug Dane now resides with his wife in Santa Barbara, California.

Book Description
The stigmatization of mental illness in film has been well documented in literature. Little has been written, however, about the ability of movies to portray mental illness sympathetically and accurately. People Like Ourselves: Portrayals of Mental Illness in the Movies fills that void with a close look at mental illness in more than seventy American movies, beginning with classics such as The Snake Pit and Now, Voyager and including such contemporary successes as A Beautiful Mind and As Good as It Gets. Films by legendary directors Billy Wilder, William Wyler, Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick, Oliver Stone, Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, and John Cassavetes are included. Through the examination of universal themes relating to one's self and society, the denial of reality, the role of women, creativity, war, and violence, Zimmerman argues that these ground-breaking films defy stereotypes, presenting sympathetic portraits of people who are mentally ill, and advance the movie-going public's understanding of mental illness, while providing insight into its causes, diagnosis, and treatment. More importantly, they portray mentally ill people as ordinary people with conflicts and desires common to everyone. Like the motion pictures it revisits, this fascinating book offers insight, entertainment, and a sense of understanding.

Book Description
The other report is published by the U. S. State Department and is more "committed," but only as far as the national interest of the world's only su perpower is concerned. Therefore, the State Department report must be read while keeping in mind the state of U. S. relations with the countries concerned. This report is accompanied by the so-called "certification" process, whose ar bitrary character has often been stressed. For instance, Iran, a country whose determination to fight the drug transit on its territory is well-known - more than 100 Iranian law enforcement agents die every year as a restult - was removed from the "blacklist" of "decertified countries" in the spring of 1999, precisely as it was inaugurating a policy of opening itself to external influ ence, including that of the United States. In retrospect, this demonstrates that the U. S. government had decertified Iran in past years because it was viewed as an Islamic and terrorist country, not because of its supposed involvement in drug trafficking. Neither does the last State Department report explain why Haji Ayub Afridi, a major Pakistani drug baron, who had voluntarily surrendered to U. S. authorities, returned to Pakistan in 1999 after spending a mere three and a half years in a U. S. prison.
