Out of my mind: From flower power to the third millennium : the seventies, the eighties and the nineties - Softcover
Richard Neville, former editor of "Oz" magazine and the author of "Hippie Hippie Shake", has been observing culture and counterculture for 30 years. The man who was at the centre of the British youth movement in the 1960s is now in his 50s, married and the father of two girls. While still a radical thinker and writer, his views have moved on. Neville remains a controversial social commentator, constantly coming up with unexpected angles on the zeitgeist. This book comprises the best of Neville, and includes articles and essays on everything from parenthood and pot-culture to art and vasectomy: from "Howling All the Way to the Talk Shows" - an analysis of Allen Ginsberg; to "Back Among the Fringe Dwellers", which looks at London in the 90s.

Book Description 8vo softcover 216pp very good. RUPERT IN ECOTOPIA, Extract from Chapter 42. The rapid rise of Rupert Murdoch, and his affect on planetary culture, is usually greeted with acclaim. The tycoon is seen as a visionary, an electronic equivalent to Alexander the Great. Other visionaries, the ones without inordinate wealth and a media empire, must rely on the power of their ideas to reach a mass audience. In the future, what if opposing champions met face to face, as they once did in ancient Athens? Athens, 335BC: Alex, the most powerful man in the world, asked to be taken to meet a homeless derelict, nicknamed â the Dogâ , found sprawled on the steps of the Parthenon. Towering over him, the General asked: â Is there anything I can do for you?â â There isâ , snapped the beggar, â Stand out of my sun.â The General retreated, remarking to his companions. â If I was not Alexander the Great, then I would be Diogenes, the Dog.â Diogenes, the famous Cynic, dressed in rags and slept in a clay pot . In reaction to an age of vulgarity and love of wealth, his teachings stressed voluntary simplicity, conveyed by personal example. Sold as a slave, he scolded the powerful, (including Plato, a â sell-outâ ) and regarded himself the one free man in Athens. It is recorded that these two men - the one who had everything and the one who had nothing - died on the same day. Seller Inventory # 41020
