| "The Hip Hop Wars: What We Talk About When We Talk About Hip Hop--and Why It Matters by Tricia Rose (Paperback, 2008)" |
| "Hip-hop is in crisis For the past dozen years the most commercially successful hip-hop has become increasingly saturated with caricatures of black gangstas thugs pimps and 'hos The controversy surrounding hip-hop is worth attending to and examining with a critical eye because as scholar and cultural critic Tricia Rose argues hip-hop has become a primary means by which we talk about race in the United States In The Hip-Hop Wars Rose explores the most crucial issues underlying the polarized claims on each side of the debate Does hip-hop cause violence or merely reflect a violent ghetto culture? Is hip-hop sexist or are its detractors simply anti-sex? Does the portrayal of black culture in hip-hop undermine black advancement? A potent exploration of a divisive and important subject The Hip-Hop Wars concludes with a call for the regalvanization of the progressive and creative heart of hip-hop What Rose calls for is not a sanitized vision of the form but one that more accurately reflects a much richer space of culture politics anger and yes sex than the current ubiquitous images in sound and video currently provide"

| "Man Who Deciphered Linear B" |
| "Linear B is Europe's oldest readable writing dating from the middle of the second millennium BC This book newly available in paperback tells the life story of Michael Ventris interlaced with that of his decipherment of Linear B First discovered in 1900 on clay tablets among the ruins of the Palace of Minos at Knossos Crete it remained a mystery for over fifty years until 1952 when Michael Ventris discovered that its signs did not represent an unknown language as previously believed but an archaic dialect of Greek more than 500 years older than the Greek of Homer Dubbed the Everest of archaeology the decipherment was all the more remarkable because Ventris was not a trained classical scholar but an architect by profession who had first heard of Linear B as a schoolboy An initial fascination became a lifelong obsession for this intriguing and contradictory man a gifted linguist but a divided soul Excellent well researched and clearly presented compelling reading (The Times Literary Supplement) Excellent Robinson understands how to make the complexities of pictograms clear to the non-expert The book gives many examples and would appeal to anyone interested in crosswords codes and cyphers but it also tells a fascinating human story (The Independent) A wonderfully swift and clear biography written for the nonspecialist (The Economist) A superb biography of Michael Ventris combining a warm account of his life with just enough technical details to satisfy those who have knowledge of linguistics or indeed of the classics It is a splendid read and a fine memorial to the split personality that enabled Ventris to decipher Minoan Linear B so triumphantly (Current World Archaeology)"
