It was the 1960s - a time of economic boom and social strife. Young women poured into the workplace, but the “Help Wanted” ads were segregated by gender and the “Mad Men” office culture was rife with sexual stereotyping and discrimination. Lynn Povich was one of the lucky ones, landing a job at Newsweek, renowned for its cutting-edge coverage of civil rights and the “Swinging Sixties.” Nora Ephron, Jane Bryant Quinn, Ellen Goodman, and Susan Brownmiller all started there as well. It was a top-notch job - for a girl - at an exciting place. But it was a dead end.

In her latest forays into the American scene, Joan Didion covers ground from Washington to Los Angeles, from a TV producer's gargantuan "manor" to the racial battlefields of New York's criminal courts. At each stop she uncovers the mythic narratives that elude other observers: Didion tells us about the fantasies the media construct around crime victims and presidential candidates; she gives us new interpretations of the stories of Nancy Reagan and Patty Hearst; she charts America's rollercoaster ride through evanescent booms and hard times that won't go away.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 50 years, you're aware of the many hypotheses that the assassination of President John F. Kennedy was not done by one man. Whether you've listened to one or a dozen of the audiobooks on this topic, there's no way to fully grasp the depth of this conspiracy. For the first time ever, New York Times best-selling authors Jesse Ventura and Dick Russell have teamed up with some of the most respected and influential assassination researchers to put together the ultimate compendium that covers every angle - from the plot to the murder - of JFK.

French philosopher Jean Paul Sartre said that "words are loaded pistols". In the hands of Russ Baker, they are hydrogen bombs. On each and every page of his masterpiece, Family of Secrets, he explodes the myths and lies that powerful forces have perpetrated on the American consciousness. He digs beneath the surface in a form of journalistic archeology to reveal the hidden history of one of America's most powerful families, leaving no stone unturned.

In CIA Rogues and the Killing of the Kennedys, Patrick Nolan fearlessly investigates the CIA’s involvement in the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Senator Robert F. Kennedy - why the brothers needed to die and how rogue intelligence agents orchestrated history’s most infamous conspiracy. Nolan furthers the research of leading scholars who agree that there remain serious unanswered questions regarding the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy.

A remarkable analysis linking the assassination of JFK and 9/11, and how both events were used to influence war policy. Peter Dale Scott examines the many ways in which war policy has been driven by “accidents” and other events in the field, in some cases despite moves toward peace that were directed by presidents. This book explores the “deep politics” that exerts a profound but too-little-understood effect on national policy outside the control of traditional democratic processes.

David Schippers, the former Chief Investigative Counsel of the House Judiciary Committee and a loyal Democrat, went against his party, the press, and public opinion to build a powerful case against the most corrupt President in American history and bring him to justice. But in this startling book, Schippers shows how the entire impeachment process was what Chicago politicians call a "First Ward election" - a rigged ball game, a sellout. And he tells you who took the dives. This is a stunning indictment of President Clinton's corruption - and of the congressional leaders who let him get away with it.

In 2009, three US professors with access to Adolf Hitler’s alleged remains startled the world with scientific DNA proof that the skull and bones that Russia had claimed since the end of World War II were Hitler’s actually belonged to a middle-aged woman whose identity remains unknown.

The case against Lyndon B. Johnson and his role in Kennedy's assassination has never been sounder. LBJ aims to prove that Vice President Johnson played an active role in the assassination of President Kennedy and that he began planning his takeover of the U.S. presidency even before being named the vice presidential nominee in 1960. Nelson's careful and meticulous research has led him to uncover secrets from one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in our country's history.

In The Murder of Marilyn Monroe: Case Closed, renowned MM expert Jay Margolis and New York Times best-selling author Richard Buskin finally lay to rest more than 50 years of wild speculation and misguided assertions by actually naming the screen goddess's killer. At the same time, they use the testimony of eyewitnesses to describe exactly what took place inside her house on Fifth Helena Drive in Los Angeles's Brentwood neighborhood.

Books about the Kennedys are legion. Yet missing until now has been the exploration of the bond between Jack and Bobby, and the part that it played in their rise and fall. Richard D. Mahoney gives us Jack and Bobby in all their hubris and humanity, youthfulness and fatalism. Here is American history as it unfolds. The Kennedy Brothers is a fresh and masterful account of the men whose legacy continues to hold the American imagination.

Lyndon Baines Johnson was a man of great ambition and enormous greed, both of which, in 1963, would threaten to destroy him. In the end, President Johnson would use power from his personal connections in Texas and from the underworld and from the government to escape an untimely end in politics and to seize even greater power. President Johnson, the thirty-sixth president of the United States, was the driving force behind a conspiracy to murder President John F. Kennedy on November 22, 1963. In The Man Who Killed Kennedy, you will find out how and why he did it. Political consultant, strategist, and Libertarian Roger Stone has gathered documents and used his firsthand knowledge to construct the ultimate tome to prove that LBJ was not only involved in JFK's assassination, but was in fact the mastermind. With 2013 being the fiftieth anniversary of JFK's assassination, this is the perfect time for The Man Who Killed Kennedy to be available to readers. The research and information in this book is unprecedented, and as Roger Stone lived through it, he's the perfect person to bring it to everyone's attention.

Una serie TV può cambiare la percezione di intere nazioni su tematiche sociali, scientifiche, politiche, relazionali, dando voce a persone che nella nostra società sono ancora invisibili, a cui non viene mai data la parola. Il merito di Marina Pierri è la capacità di mettere insieme mondi che fanno fatica a parlarsi: quello del femminismo intersezionale e quello della psicologia del profondo. In "Eroine", Marina Pierri prende il testimone da una vasta letteratura filosofica, cinematografica e psicologica, e compie un'operazione ancora inedita.

Walter Veltroni denuncia la debolezza della politica di fronte al ricatto dell'opinione pubblica, il cedimento dell'etica e del pudore sotto i colpi della società delle immagini e della comunicazione totale, riportandoci con la memoria al giorno in cui il nostro sguardo perse l'innocenza. L'11 giugno del 1981, un grido disperato paralizza l'Italia davanti ai teleschermi. Alfredino Rampi, sei anni, è precipitato in un pozzo e sta chiamando disperatamente sua madre. Gli italiani ascoltano agghiacciati il suo lamento, mentre iniziano i tentativi di salvataggio.

I segreti più profondi della Cia e dell'Nsa sono stati hackerati e resi pubblici, più di una volta. Ma stai certo che da nessuna parte, nemmeno nel dark web, troverai una copia dell'algoritmo di ricerca di Google o dell'algoritmo del feed di Facebook. Oggi questi algoritmi determinano l'andamento della vita umana sul nostro pianeta. Jaron Lanier, informatico della Silicon Valley, pioniere della realtà virtuale, non ha nessun account social. In "Dieci ragioni per cancellare subito i tuoi account social" spiega perché non dovresti averne nemmeno tu.

Internet delle cose, intelligenza artificiale, robotica, realtà virtuale: è il nostro mondo sempre più digitale e interconnesso. Riflettendo sulle rivoluzioni industriali del passato, a partire da quella inglese del XVIII secolo, l'audiolibro mostra come in gioco vi siano profondi rivolgimenti sociali e territoriali, non solo la tecnologia. Oggi la quarta rivoluzione ci obbliga a ripensare radicalmente stili di vita, modelli educativi, modi di consumare, produrre, lavorare, interagire. Cruciali il ruolo dell'informazione e della politica.

Le televisioni oggi sono tante e molto diverse tra loro: nessun mezzo di comunicazione ha raggiunto nella storia una diffusione e un'influenza così grandi. Anche in Italia sono ormai lontani i tempi del duopolio Rai-Mediaset, poiché nuovi competitori, come Sky, controllano quasi un terzo delle risorse del sistema televisivo. Questo audiolibro traccia l'evoluzione della Tv in Europa e nel mondo, e dà conto del suo forte impatto sui consumi culturali e sui comportamenti sociali, pubblici e privati.

Per la prima volta insieme, tutti gli scritti che Umberto Eco ha dedicato alla televisione: al suo linguaggio, alle forme di comunicazione che mette in gioco, alle tecnologie che le sostengono, all'immaginario che produce, ai suoi esiti culturali, estetici, etici, educativi e, soprattutto, politici.

In che modo la tv e i social media sono diventati così pervasivi? Come mai si ha la sensazione di vivere in un tempo strano, talvolta estremamente compresso e talvolta profondamente dilatato? E perché ci sembra sempre che ci manchi un quadro generale delle cose, che il nostro sguardo si fissi su alcuni particolari, ingranditi a dismisura?
