Moving deftly between film and public protest, military psychiatry and veteran experience, documentation and reality, Franny Nudelman charts a fascinating pathway from the CIA mind-control experiments and the \u2018brainwashing\u2019 scare of the Korean War era to the troubled sleep of the traumatized veteran, the endless wakefulness of the POW, and the emergence of a veteran\u2019s movement focused on the right to sleep in public.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"byline\">\u2013 Timothy Melley, author of <i>The Covert Sphere: Secrecy, Fiction, and the National Security State<\/i>, Professor of English and Director of the Miami University Humanities Center<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"edition-single--readmoreized-reviews\">\n<div class=\"edition-single--book-review\">\n<p>\u201cIn this lucid and moving cultural history of the US from the end of WW2 through the Vietnam War, Franny Nudelman explores the problematic status of sleep for soldiers damaged by the trauma of warfare. Writing against the instrumental logic of sleep as the recuperation necessary for a return to service and combat, she poses the passivity and vulnerability of sleep as an interval of refusal, of healing, or of oblivion in relation to the imperatives of a militaristic society.

The event was in collaboration with Carleton University&#8217;s Department of English and Literature. In the book, Stewart poses serious question about the main challenge facing Canada in the future which, he suggests, is\u00a0&#8220;not economic or political. It\u2019s ethical. On the issue of racism, Canadians tend to compare themselves favourably to Americans and to rely on a concession that Canadian racism, if it exists at all, is more &#8216;subtle.&#8217; Is there a future time when newcomers and visible minorities will be enabled to feel like they belong in Canada? Or will they have to accept their experience as visitors to Canada no matter how long they have lived here? To quote Stewart:\u00a0<em>\u201c<\/em>As a Black Canadian, the Canada that I have come to see is different from the idealized Canada of Tim Hortons commercials, Hockey Night in Canada and countless other imaginings. It\u2019s a Canada that takes credit for a level of open-mindedness that far exceeds its reality. It\u2019s a Canada that distinguishes itself for its population of citizens who passively lay claim to welcoming difference while staying silent when those around them who are in fact different are disenfranchised, dehumanized, undervalued and left to feel that we do not belong in the country in which many of us were born, or about which we are told tales of tolerance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>James Deaville (Music)<\/strong>\u00a0recently spoke with NPR about music in reality television, excerpts from which interview will appear on their website.

From the book&#8217;s website:\u00a0&#8220;<i>Reproductive Rights and the State: Getting the Birth Control, RU-486, and Morning-After Pills and the Gardasil Vaccine to the U.S. Market\u00a0<\/i>tackles a subject that remains controversial more than 60 years after &#8220;the pill&#8221; was approved for use in the United States. The first book to examine the politicization of the FDA approval process for reproductive drugs, this study maps the hard-fought battles over the four major drugs currently on the U.S. market.\u00a0To make her case, Melissa Haussman scrutinizes the history of the FDA and the statutes that have governed it, as well as interactions between the U.S. government, American pharmaceutical companies, and the medical community. The analysis centers on explaining how three reproductive drugs were kept off the U.S. market well after their efficacy had been proven, while the availability of the fourth, Gardasil, has less to do with helping girls than with preserving the financial wellbeing of Merck. Readers will come away understanding how, when it comes to reproductive drugs, women&#8217;s health concerns have consistently taken a backseat to political agendas and corporate profits.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">2012<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Ian Lee (Economics)<\/strong> published two OpEds.
