WHAT THEY DIDN’T TEACH YOU IN BUSINESS SCHOOL - AND WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW. Powerful corporate interests use their lobbyists to wield influence. They impact our daily lives, but who are they and how do they operate? In this tell-it-like-it-is casual narrative, the reader gets an inside look at the life of a corporate lobbyist from someone who lived it. The book takes you from fundraisers, to the halls of Congress, to the White House and on to China, South Africa and Mexico with a stop at ground zero just days after 9/11. Raisin Bran and Other Cereal Wars provides unique insights into the widely misunderstood role of corporate government relations and how it affects public policy. It is the go-to source for anyone interested in learning more about the complex and stimulating confluence of business, law, lobbying and politics.

  • Poetry & Pigeons
    George Franklin
    This book began to take shape last April when I was sitting in an outdoor café in Madrid watching pigeons hop up on the tables and demand potato chips or anything else they could get. It occurred to me then that our poems are a bit like that. They are strange creatures with wings who like to take off on their own and don’t care much what their poets want or hope for. When we fi...

  • Noise of the World
    George Franklin
    The poems in Noise of the World tell real stories, real because the poet doesn’t shy away from the limitations of being human. There are love poems, moments of desire, of 'Pressing my lips and teeth hard against / Your shoulder, dissolving beneath your / Fingers, tongue, the shiver in your / Abdomen,' but they are tempered by the knowledge that the person loved will never be fu...
