This discourse on the importance of television in society presents Friendly's uncannily prescient views on the corrosive effect of money on the news business, the sensationalization of news reporting, and the viewing public's appetite for quality broadcasting. With Edward R. Murrow, Fred Friendly practically invented television journalism. Through telling anecdotes and penetrating analysis, he recalls his collaborations with Murrow, from their stinging documentary on Senator Joseph McCarthy to CBS's pioneering coverage of the burgeoning civil rights and anti-Vietnam War movements. Friendly also recounts his resignation as president of CBS News in 1966, when the network ran reruns of I Love Lucy instead of Senate hearings on the war in Vietnam. Following that controversial decision, he began writing this memorable book.

Robert Phillips is a prominent member of America's neglected "transition generation" of poets—those born in the late 1930s and early 1940s. His work has been included in many anthologies and textbooks. He gathers for his seventh full-length collection his best poems of the past six years, from dramatic monologues to personal lyrics. While most are free-verse, there are also sonnets, a villanelle, a ballade, an abecedarian, found poems, prose poems, haiku, and clerihews. Divided into three sections—"Fire and Obsession," "A Little Light Music," and "Rituals"—this new volume reveals Phillips's playfulness and good humor, his high intelligence, and his musicality.

Would you like to hear Almighty God speak to you? Well, this is what this book is all about. You will hear the tender, instructional, joyful, voice of your creator in your inner spirit as you read and ponder these words. Through the words spoken to me you will hear him affirming, comforting, and embracing you. Its you He wishes to Love. He will show you how to listen to His Voice for yourself. Listen! Feel His Peace! Learn to Trust in that still small voice within you. Absorb His Presence! Then take a piece of paper and write. Write His words to you. Then you will be able to say to me what the Samaritan people said to the woman at the well, No longer does our faith depend on your story.
