Politics of Experience

In ‘The Politics of Experience’ and the visionary ‘Bird of Paradise’, R.D. Laing shows how the straitjacket of conformity imposed on us all leads to intense feelings of alienation and a tragic waste of human potential. He throws into question the notion of normality, examines schizophrenia and psychotherapy, transcendence and ‘us and them’ thinking, and illustrates his ideas with a remarkable case history of a ten-day psychosis. ‘We are bemused and crazed creatures,’ Laing suggests. This outline of ‘a thoroughly self-conscious and self-critical human account of man’ represents a major attempt to understand our deepest dilemmas and sketch in solutions. ‘Everyone in contemporary psychiatry owes something to R.D. Laing’ Anthony Clare, the Guardian.

Introduction by Philip Elwood
This splendid volume of Jim Marshall's favorite jazz pictures is a nostalgic family album of the golden age of jazz, before rock-and-roll grabbed the public by the lapels and Jim cemented his fame documenting it.  These photographs capture many of the jazz era's old-timers and a few of its then-newcomers - Scott LaFaro, John Handy, Michel Petrucciani, and Michael White among them - but it's not solely an elegy.  Of the more than fifty performers pictured, eight are alive and still active - Vernon Alley, Handy, Jon Hendricks, Quincy Jones, Lee Konitz, Yusef Lateef, James Moody, Sonny Rollins and White - and the most famous jazz musicians never leave.  Their music and personalities inspire us anew every day.

So much has been written about the most famous and successful band of all time and yet one story has not been told - the band's own story. Spanning their early lives, their rise to pre-eminence, and a year-by-year account of the golden period of fame right through to the break-up in 1970, THE BEATLES ANTHOLOGY is the Beatles' own book. To the never-before-disclosed recollections of Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr are added the memories of associates such as road manager Neil Aspinall, producer George Martin and spokesman Derek Taylor. Interwoven with these are the recollections of John Lennon, and almost all of these have never been published before. Add to this the astonishing collection of over 1,000 photographs drawn from the Apple Corps archive and The Beatles' own personal collections and you have a truly unique book. Created with their full co-operation, THE BEATLES ANTHOLOGY is nothing less than The Beatles autobiography.
