Perpetuating Power: How Mexican Presidents Were Chosen By Jorge G. Castañeda; Padraic Arthur Smithies
2000 | 248 Pages | ISBN: 1565846168 | PDF | 24 MB
Jorge Castañeda, who served as Mexico's foreign minister from 2000 to 2003, has been both an insider and an outsider in Mexico's political system. InPerpetuating Power, he lays bare the often mystifying workings of power in Mexico, offering readers what theNew York Times Book Reviewcalled "an unusually revealing explication of the inner workings of three decades of presidential succession."To outside observers, Mexico stood out for its odd mixture of democratic pretension with autocratic inevitability: there were always elections, but everyone knew the next president would be the candidate of the aptly named Party of the Institutional Revolution, which governed Mexico throughout most of the last century.In six penetrating essays combined with interviews by Castañeda with each of the living Mexican ex-presidents,Perpetuating Powerprovides a remarkably candid account of the political machinery behind Mexican presidential politics and a view, startling to political outsiders, of how power really operates.

Pal Benko's Endgame Laboratory By Benko, P.
2013 | 228 Pages | ISBN: 0923891889 | PDF | 11 MB
Grandmaster Pal Benko is the World's Greatest Authority on the Chess Endgame. Since January 1981, he has written a monthly column in Chess Life magazine entitled "Endgame Lab." This book is a collection of those columns published in the years 1981 through 1986. Grandmaster Benko needs no introduction in the world of chess. He was at one time ranked in the top eight players in the world. He has beaten Bobby Fischer three times. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, whenever Benko entered a Swiss system chess tournament, the only question was who was going to finish second, because Benko almost always won! He won the US Open Championship eight times. His articles are about playing endgames. Benko writes about practical endgames that regularly come up in tournament play: Basic endgames such as how to win with rook and four pawns against rook and three pawns or how to draw if you happen to be on the weaker side. In short, Benko teaches you how YOU can score more points in regular tournament play. Benko also shows how even world champions and some of the strongest players in the world have sometimes messed up basic endgames and lost games they should have drawn or lost or drawn games they should have won.

Operation Hollywood: How the Pentagon Shapes and Censors the Movies By David L. Robb
2004 | 350 Pages | ISBN: 1591021820 | PDF | 11 MB
The only thing Hollywood likes more than a good movie is a good deal. For more than fifty years producers and directors of war and action movies have been getting a great deal from America's armed forces by receiving access to billions of dollars worth of military equipment and personnel for little or no cost. Although this arrangement considerably lowers a film's budget, the cost in terms of intellectual freedom can be quite steep. In exchange for access to sophisticated military hardware and expertise, filmmakers must agree to censorship from the Pentagon.As veteran Hollywood journalist David L. Robb shows in this revealing insider's look into Hollywood's "dirtiest little secret," the final product that moviegoers see at the theater is often not just what the director intends but also what the powers-that-be in the military want to project about America's armed forces. Sometimes the censor demands removal of just a few words; other times whole scenes must be scrapped or completely revised. What happens if a director refuses the requested changes? Robb quotes a Pentagon spokesman: "Well I'm taking my toys and I'm going home. I'm taking my tanks and my troops and my location, and I'm going home." That can be quite a persuasive threat to a filmmaker trying to keep his movie within budget.Robb takes us behind the scenes during the making of many well-known movies. From The Right Stuff to Top Gun and even Lassie, the list of movies in which the Pentagon got its way is very long. Only when a director is determined to spend more money than necessary to make his own movie without interference, as in the case of Oliver Stone in the creation of Platoon or Francis Ford Coppola in Apocalypse Now, is a film released that presents the director's unalloyed vision.For anyone who loves movies and cares about freedom of expression, Operation Hollywood is an engrossing, shocking, and very entertaining book.

On the Ganges: Encounters with Saints and Sinners Along India's Mythic River By George Black
2018 | 336 Pages | ISBN: 1250057353 | EPUB | 25 MB
Journey along one of the world's greatest rivers and catch a glimpse into the lives and cultures of the people who live along its banksThe Ganges flows through northern India and Bangladesh for more than 1,500 miles before emptying into the Bay of Bengal. It is sacred to Hindus who worship Ganga, the river goddess. But it has also long been a magnet for foreigners, some seeking to unravel its mysteries and others who have come in search of plunder. InOn the Ganges, George Black, who chronicled the exploration of the American West and the creation of Yellowstone National Park inEmpire of Shadows, takes readers on an extraordinary journey from the glaciers of the Himalayas to the sacred city of Varanasi to the "hundred mouths" of the Ganges Delta.On the Ganges, parts of which originated from aNew Yorkerarticle published last year, introduces us to a vivid and often eccentric cast of characters who worship the river, pollute it, and flock to it from all over the world in search of enlightenment and adventure. Black encounters those who run the corrupt cremation business, workers who eke out a living in squalid factories, religious fanatics, and Brits who continue to live as if the Raj had never ended.By the end of his journey, Black has given us a memorable picture of the great river, with all its riddles and contradictions, both sacred and profane, giving the last word to a man scavenging for the gifts left by pilgrims: "There are good days and there are bad days. It all depends. Everything is in the hands of our mother, Ma Ganga."
