I've selected the pieces for their fascination factor or humor or contemporary relevance. They frequently touch on important matters that we still struggle to clarify. So, maybe this book is a record of social examination-the political, moral, and cultural themes that we met during a particular time in our history. Or maybe it just shows the crazy doings of a crazy place.
