Penicillin has affected the lives of everyone, and has exerted a
powerful hold on the popular imagination since its first use in
1941. The story of its development from a chance observation in
1928 by Alexander Fleming to a life-saving drug is compelling and
exciting. It revolutionized healthcare and turned the modest,
self-effacing Fleming into a world hero. This book tells the story
of the man and his discovery set against a background of the
transformation of medical research from nineteenth-century
individualism through to teamwork and modern-day international big
business (pharmaceutical companies like Fisors, Distillers, or
Beecham (Smith Kline)). Now, sixty years after the antibiotic
revolution, when there are fears that the days of antibiotics are
numbered it has never been more timely to look at the beginnings.
Most ethnographers don't achieve what Kevin Brown did while
conducting their research: in his two years spent at a karaoke bar
near Denver, Colorado, he went from barely able to carry a tune to
someone whom other karaoke patrons requested to sing. Along the
way, he learned everything you might ever want to know about
karaoke and the people who enjoy it. The result is Karaoke Idols, a
close ethnography of life at a karaoke bar that reveals just what
we are doing when we take up the mic - and how we shape our
identities, especially in terms of gender, ethnicity, and class,
through performances in everyday life. Marrying a comprehensive
introduction to the history of public singing and karaoke with a
rich analysis of karaoke performers and the community that their
shared performances generate, Karaoke Idols is a book for both the
casual reader and the scholar: a fascinating exploration of our
urge to perform and the intersection of technology and culture that
makes it so seductively easy to do so.
