Book excerpt: Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About The Music Your Parents Never Wanted You To Hear Believe it or not, music censorship in America did not begin with Tipper Gore's horrified reaction to her daughter's Prince album. The vilification of popular music by government and individuals has been going on for decades. Now, for the first time, Parental Advisory offers a thorough and complete chronicle of the music that has been challenged or suppressed -- by the people or the government -- in the United States. From Dean Martin's "Wham, Bam, Thank you Ma'am" to Marilyn Manson's Antichrist Superstar; from freedom fighters such as Frank Zappa and in-your-face rappers such a N.W.A. to crusaders such as Tipper Gore, this intelligent and entertaining book shows how censorship has crossed sexual, class, and ethnic lines, and how many see it as a de facto form of racism. With nearly one hundred fascinating photographs of musicians, record burning, and controversial cover art; illuminating sidebars; and a decade-by-decade timeline of important moments in censorship history, Parental Advisory is by turns frightening and hilarious -- but always revealing.

Book excerpt: In the tradition of her acclaimed mother, Ann Rule, author of The Stranger Beside Me, bestselling author Leslie Rule exposes the trail of a sadistic sociopath, identity thief, and killer . . . It was a bleak November in 2012 when Cari Farver, thirty-seven, vanished from Omaha, Nebraska. Texts sent indicated that the hardworking mother had quit her job, abandoned her son, and cut ties with everyone. Cari’s boyfriend, Dave Kroupa, accepted the breakup at face value. Her mother, Nancy Raney, however, had doubts. “I need to hear your voice,” Nancy begged. When the texter refused to speak, Nancy reported Cari missing. While no one saw or spoke to Cari, more than 12,000 sinister emails and texts were sent in her name over the next years. Police believed Dave and his girlfriend, Shanna “Liz” Golyar, when they reported that the missing woman was cyberstalking them. The tormentor was eerily aware of Dave’s every move, knew when Liz visited and threatened the couple. It never occurred to Dave that Cari was a victim—that the real stalker had killed before, and was planning to kill again. Leslie Rule tracks the heart-pounding path to long-awaited justice—from a twisted past to the deadly deception and the high-tech forensics that condemned the killer to prison. “Rule's first true crime book hits the mark.” —Katherine Ramsland, author of Confession of a Serial Killer: The Untold Story of Dennis Rader the BTK Killer “A deft, fascinating true crime story of obsession.” —Library Journal (Starred Review) With a New Update by the Author Includes Reading Group Guide

Book excerpt: In our digitally connected world, very few personal details have been left to the imagination. Children are growing up in the middle of an online war where information is collected and sold by countless organizations and where mega data breaches have left behind the threat of identity theft to last a lifetime. The internet offers extraordinary access to knowledge, people, and convenience but with that comes a dark side due to our oversharing ways and inability to use technology safely. If you have children who use social media, own a smartphone or tablet, or play video games online, this book is for you. In this eye opening view into our digital vulnerabilities, the author will walk you through a variety of methods used to uncover privacy weak spots and provide the necessary solutions throughout the entire process. Learn why there is no such thing as insignificant data when it comes to your privacy, find out what companies really know about you and what you can do about it, navigate the web anonymously, and so much more. Important data breaches and privacy laws will be discussed along the way. Cybercrime is a lucrative business for those involved. Don't allow your family to be a profitable investment. Privacy isn't dead, it's only been resting. Time to wake up.

Book excerpt: Secretly dreaming of sporting metal-rap 'ho or masta' pimp fashions? Can't turn the music up loud enough? Angry for no apparent reason? Constantly feel the need to break something? Or would you do it all for the nookie? If you've just answered yes to all these questions you're worthy of the label "mook," a term that has its roots in hip-hop and has evolved into its own popular and provocative form of music. From urban skater-kids to suburban mid-Western teens this genre of music has transcended all social and economic levels to become the "it" music for a post-grunge generation. A cutting edge category that is ferocious, in your face, and brutally honest, mockdom is becoming the sound of the century. This book documents the fusion of metal, rock, and hip-hop stomping the airwaves and making teen pop-queens cry. Find out how the Beastie Boys and Public Enemy laid the foundation and why the media made instant stars out of today's well-known acts such as Eminem, Limp Bizkit, Kid Rock, Shootyz Groove, 311, Orange 9mm, Rage Against the Machine, Korn, and others. Pimps, trailer trash, and attitude problems--love them or hate them these are the new crossover pop-stars; see them "fully exposed" in this gritty and intensely illustrated celebration on the family tree of metal-rap.

Book excerpt: This account of five generations of one family's life in America could simply be called an historical drama--the "characters" are all people who lived and breathed and walked the earth of China and California, from the 1850s to the present day. It is my hope and intention that these fact-based stories will enlighten, encourage and inspire whoever reads them: students, historians, Asian Americans and all other peoples of different races who may recognize themselves or their families in this drama--in short, we human beings who inhabit our world with skins of different shades, and languages made of different sounds, but with minds and hearts aligned to what is good and true in life, taught to us by our mothers and fathers, aunties and uncles, brothers and sisters and family friends, down through the generations. -- Bruce Quan, Jr.
