With Children' writer-producer Richard Gurman takes us behind the scenes of this boundary-breaking show to reveal how its inner workings were at times as disruptive and contentious - yet at other times, as hysterical and raunchy - as the Bundy family themselves. Featuring exclusive interviews with the cast, including Ed O'Neill and Katey Sagal, media moguls, network executives, writers, directors, critics, and even the woman who was so offended by one episode she launched a sponsor boycott that almost got the series canceled,' Married... With Children vs. the World' celebrates the rebellious, satirical vision of the show and the battle to keep it alive that paved the way for the tremendous diversity in family comedy style we see today. 2 copies available.

With the release of his latest studio album '50', Herb Alpert hits a tremendous milestone in a storied music career that began over 60 years ago in 1962: 50 is the Tijuana Brass maestro's 50th studio album! The 89-year-old Alpert has seen his share of high watermarks. By the numbers, he's sold over 72 million albums worldwide, earned 29 gold and platinum records, and has been awarded 8 Grammys. 50 is another impressive number to add to an already impressive list of stats. And importantly, 50 also commemorates 50 years of marriage to singer Lani Hall, their golden anniversary! Teeming with the good vibes that characterize the trumpeter's decades-long catalog, 50 is a continuation of the path Alpert has been blazing in the past decade. There is a mix of reimagined classics covered in Alpert's instantly recognizable style, highlighted by The Chords' doo-wop classic 'Sh- Boom,', Elvis' 'Are You Lonesome Tonight,' 'Baubles Bangles And Beads' (famously recorded by Frank Sinatra, Antonio Carlos Jobim, and Wes Montgomery, among others), and more. Plus, there are touching, new original compositions like 'Dancing Down 50th Street.'. On 50, Herb strikes the delicate balance of honoring the past while keeping his eye set on the future. It's no wonder he's still going strong after all this time!

And, as award-winning historian Kathleen DuVal vividly recounts, when Europeans did arrive, no civilization came to a halt because of a few wandering explorers, even when the strangers came well armed. In this important addition to the growing tradition of North American history centered on Indigenous nations, Kathleen DuVal shows how the definitions of power and means of exerting it shifted over time, but the sovereignty and influence of Native peoples remained a constant?and will continue far into the future.

$150 donation. The most urgent story in modern tech begins not in Silicon Valley but two hundred years ago in rural England, when workers known as the Luddites rose up rather than starve at the hands of factory owners who were using automated machines to erase their livelihoods. The Luddites organized guerrilla raids to smash those machines?on punishment of death?and won the support of Lord Byron, enraged the Prince Regent, and inspired the birth of science fiction. This all-but-forgotten class struggle brought nineteenth-century England to its knees. Today, technology imperils millions of jobs, robots are crowding factory floors, and artificial intelligence will soon pervade every aspect of our economy. Brian Merchant intertwines a lucid examination of our current age with the story of the Luddites, showing how automation changed our world?and is shaping our future.
