Over 30 million records sold. The most photographed British star of
the 80s---alongside Princess Diana and Margaret Thatcher. Not since
the Beatles has a British personality been so well known
internationally, across a complete cross-section of ages, genders,
races, and religions. Now, for the very first time, Samantha Fox
has decided to tell the whole, and sometimes painful, story of the
bullied North London girl who managed to captivate an entire world.
My first memory is of an explosion and the smell of burnt flesh.
With those words, following a prologue in which readers are
introduced to her backstage in 2015, Samantha Fox begins her story.
Thoughts of Myra the love of her life who has been battling an
aggressive form of cancer for almost two years whirl through her
mind, then shortly she takes to the stage once more, to sing Touch
Me, the song which made her world famous almost 30 years earlier.
Samantha Fox s autobiography is a captivating tale about a fighter
who has gone through hell more than once, but who has always come
out stronger; someone who has remained in the public s
consciousness for almost four decades now and who continues to play
to sold-out crowds across the world.
The Tasmanian devil is threatened by Devil Facial Tumour Disease
(DFTD), a transmissible form of cancer that has reduced the
population by over 80%. Hunting, extreme climate events, vehicle
collision and habitat destruction also put pressure on this
endangered species. The recovery effort to save the Tasmanian devil
commenced over 15 years ago as a collaborative initiative between
the Tasmanian government, the Australian government, the Zoo and
Aquarium Association Australasia, and many research institutions.
Saving the Tasmanian Devil documents the journey taken by partner
organisations in discovering what DFTD is, the effect it has on
wild devil populations, and the outcomes achieved through research
and management actions. Chapters describe all aspects of devil
conservation, including the captive devil populations, applied
pathology, immunology and genetic research findings, adaptive
management, and the importance of advocacy and partnerships. This
book will provide management practitioners and conservation
scientists with insight into the complexities of undertaking a
program of this scale, and will also be of value to researchers,
students and others interested in conservation.
Digital technology permeates the physical world. Social media and
virtual reality, accessed via internet capable devices - computers,
smartphones, tablets and wearables - affect nearly all aspects of
social life. The contributions to this volume apply innovative
forms of ethnographic research to the digital realm. They examine
the emergence of new forms of digital life, such as political
participation through comments on East Greenlandic news blogs, the
personal use of video broadcasting applications, the rise of
transnational migrant networks facilitated by social media, or the
effects of Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram on global conflicts.
