  The astonishing story of America’s airwaves, the two friends—one a media mogul, the other a famous inventor—who made them available to us, and the government which figured out how to put a price on air. 
  This is the origin story of the airwaves—the foundational technology of the communications age—as told through the forty-year friendship of an entrepreneurial industrialist and a brilliant inventor. 
  David Sarnoff, the head of RCA and equal parts Steve Jobs, Jack Welch, and William Randolph Hearst, was the greatest supporter of his friend Edwin Armstrong, developer of the first amplifier, the modern radio transmitter, and FM radio. Sarnoff was convinced that Armstrong’s inventions had the power to change the way societies communicated with each other forever. He would become a visionary captain of the media industry, even predicting the advent of the Internet. 
  In the mid-1930s, however, when Armstrong suspected Sarnoff of orchestrating a cadre of government officials to seize control of the FM airwaves, he committed suicide. Sarnoff had a very different view of who his friend’s enemies were. 
  Many corrupt politicians and corporations saw in Armstrong’s inventions the opportunity to commodify our most ubiquitous natural resource—the air. This early alliance between high tech and business set the precedent for countless legal and industrial battles over broadband and licensing bandwidth, many of which continue to influence policy and debate today.

  All the Rage - Why We Feel Anger...

  Anger is all around us, from divisive social media arguments and heightened political divides to road rage and personal spats; from Black Lives Matter and climate justice movements to Trump, incels, and white supremacists. When it materializes, it seems to cry out for recognition and response. It affects our bodies and can transition into violence. It can be inherited through the generations; it can manifest in criminal acts. What should we do with it, and can it ever be put to good use?Drawing on case studies of patients, developments in neuropsychology, literature, philosophy, and recent political events, acclaimed author and psychoanalyst Josh Cohen identifies the different forms of anger, including the most untrammeled and elemental fury, the more cynical anger that works towards political unrest, and the questioning anger of political protest. Rather than an emotion to ignore, he argues that anger is a primary human feeling. It maps itself onto every aspect of our intimate lives while politically and culturally shaping our world.In a time of intense dissatisfactions and spiraling divisions, and with anger a dominating force, All the Rage offers a new and original understanding of anger, so we may better handle the rage within us.

  For readers who enjoy a dark and mysterious plot with their sexy books, comes the final installment of this kinky m/m ( m/m/m & m/m/m/m/m) series inspired by the Edgar Allan Poe story, “The Fall of the House of Usher.” 
  In the conclusion of this kinky queer dark erotic romance, Alexander embraces a more dominant but equally submissive role within the House of Otter. Taking charge of even more boys as they join the strict order of the manor, Alexander complies with the demands of the master of the mansion as he continues to struggle with his deep sexual desires. 
  Deception from more than one man, and a passionate need for all of them, cloud his judgement as expectations and punishments swell. Friends become lovers as well as enemies while the whispers within the house grow louder, beckoning Alexander to fulfill a looming destiny he does not yet understand. 
  Color-coordinated jockstraps and harnesses, hairy chests in fetish gear, Daddy and boy dynamics, gay trans men, power exchange, mm, mmm, orgies, group play, nipple play, toys, sounding rods, and so much more lead up to one ultimate decision for Alexander. 
  With time running out, he must choose between his love for his friends, his keeper, and himself as he decides if the sexual lust he’s being offered tastes best paired with love or money. 
  It’s Edgar Allan Poe but with a queer kinky twist! 
  This MM BDSM Paranormal Dark Erotic Romance takes consent seriously. No otter boys were harmed (unless they wanted to be) in the writing of this book.*
