The Real RFK Jr. is an intimate biographical portrait examining the controversial activist's journey from anguish and addiction to becoming the country's leading environmental champion fighting government corruption, corporate greed, and a captured media. Written by his longtime colleague Dick Russell, the biography also exposes the misconceptions and explains the rationale behind Kennedy's campaign to protect public health.     Provided exclusive source material, including access to Kennedy’s unpublished writings and personal journals, the author conducted dozens of interviews with him as well as numerous friends and associates. Russell delves into everything from Kennedy’s sometimes death-defying river rafting adventures to his pioneering legal cases against polluters such as Smithfield Foods and Monsanto, while founding the world’s largest water protection group. The Real RFK Jr. also examines Kennedy’s pursuit of the truth about the assassinations of his father and uncle, the wrongful murder conviction of his cousin, and the false narratives around the COVID-19 pandemic.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49553313038609,"sku":"GOR013723424","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49773040140561,"sku":"CIN1510776095VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49851216199953,"sku":"CIN1510776095G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50988242436369,"sku":"NIN9781510776098","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":52106580132113,"sku":"CIN1510776095A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1510776095.jpg?v=1751405785"},{"product_id":"as-level-mathematics-through-diagrams-book-dick-russell-9780199148387","title":"AS Level Mathematics Through Diagrams","description":"Split into sections on Pure Mathematics, Statistics, Mechanics, and Discrete Mathematics this one book is the essential study companion for all your AS Mathematics students.

What does a father do when hope is gone that his only son can ever lead anything close to a “normal” life? That’s the question that haunted Dick Russell in the fall of 2011, when his son, Franklin, was thirty-two. At the age of seventeen, Franklin had been diagnosed with schizophrenia. For years he spent time in and out of various hospitals, and even went through periods of adamantly denying that Dick was actually his father.  A mixed-race child, Franklin was handsome, intelligent, and sensitive until his mental illness suddenly took control. After spending the ensuing years trying to build some semblance of a normal father-son relationship, Dick was invited with his son, out of the blue, to witness the annual wildlife migration on Africa’s Serengeti Plain. Seizing this potential opportunity to repair the damage that both had struggled with, after going through two perilous nights together in Tanzania, ultimately the two-week trip changed both of their lives.  Desperately seeking an alternative to the medical model’s medication regimen, the author introduces Franklin to a West African shaman in Jamaica. Dick discovers Franklin’s psychic capabilities behind the seemingly delusional thought patterns, as well as his artistic talents. Theirs becomes an ancestral quest, the journey finally taking them to the sacred lands of New Mexico and an indigenous healer. For those who understand the pain of mental illness as well the bond between a parent and a child, My Mysterious Son shares the intimate and beautiful story of a father who will do everything in his power to repair his relationship with a young man damaged by mental illness.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49598884741393,"sku":"GOR008572302","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50332557017361,"sku":"CIN1629144878G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51719274430737,"sku":"CIN1629144878VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53266462605585,"sku":"GOR009184765","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1629144878.jpg?v=1751375233"},{"product_id":"on-the-trail-of-the-jfk-assassins-book-dick-russell-9781616080860","title":"On the Trail of the JFK Assassins","description":"No praise can be too high for Russell s mastery.

During her life, Brant's work gave voice to an often unacknowledged Two-Spirit identity, and today, her words represent continued strength, growth, and connection in the face of deep suffering. A GENEROUS SPIRIT is Brant's portrait of survival and empathy at the intersection of Native American and lesbian experience. Edited by noted Native poet and scholar Janice Gould, A GENEROUS SPIRIT recounts and enacts the continuance of her people and her sisters with distinct, organic voices and Brant's characteristic warmth. Her work is a simultaneous cry of grief and celebration of human compassion and connection in its shared experience. Through storytelling, her characters wrest their own voices from years of silence and find communion with other souls.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49891020275985,"sku":"CIN0881849006G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50299208171793,"sku":"CIN0881849006VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50413184090385,"sku":"CIN0881849006A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53585408819473,"sku":"GOR004322157","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0881849006.jpg?v=1750980855"},{"product_id":"black-genius-book-dick-russell-9780786704552","title":"Black Genius","description":"In a search for distinctly African-American qualities of genius, Russell explores the roots of black achievement in America.

For too long, we the people have sat by and let politicians and bureaucrats from both parties obfuscate and lie. And according to this former Navy SEAL, former pro wrestler, and former Minnesota governor, the media is complicit in these acts of deception.

Here, Ventura looks closely at the theories that have been presented over the years and separates the fact from the fiction. \u003cbr\u003e In Ventura s eyes, the murder of Abraham Lincoln and the assassinations of the Kennedys and Martin Luther King, all need to be re-examined. Was Watergate presented honestly, or was the CIA involved? Did the Republican Party set out to purposefully steal two elections on behalf of George W. Bush?

Originally named \"Devil-fish' by nineteenth-century whalers, the gray whale's friendly overtures toward humans over the past generation helped to spark the growth of today's whale-watching industry. This majestic marine mammal has also become a focus of controversy, as environmentalists fought to protect its breeding area from industrial development, some protested renewed hunting by a Native American tribe, and, more recently, scientific studies have noted a new decline in the whale's population. Russell's narrative interweaves the remarkable story of Charles Melville Scammon, a nineteenth-century whaling captain responsible for bringing gray whales to the brink of extinction, whose change of heart led to his becoming a renowned naturalist. Retracing Scammon's path, the author encounters contemporary marine biologists who have devoted their lives to studying the gray whale, and native peoples for whom subsistence whale hunting means survival in the most remote regions of the North Pacific. Called \"an extraordinary book\" by The Washington Post, Eye of the Whale is a stirring account of a creature that is changing our consciousness about the relationship between human beings and the animal kingdom.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50381995475217,"sku":"CIN1559630884G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50559317868817,"sku":"CIN1559630884VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52698544734481,"sku":"GOR007905352","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1559630884.jpg?v=1751023318"},{"product_id":"life-and-ideas-of-james-hillman-book-dick-russell-9781629144818","title":"The Life and Ideas of James Hillman","description":"The life and times of the world’s foremost post-Jungian thinker, and best-selling author of The Soul’s Code.

Based on author Dick Russell's interviews with Hillman and dozens of people who knew him, Volume Two of The Life and Ideas of James Hillman takes up Hillman's mid-life when he set about returning psychology to its Soul-rich roots in Greek mythology and Renaissance esotericism.  From his base teaching at Zurich's Jung Institute, we follow Hillman's growing international prominence as a maverick in the field, coinciding with his relationship and eventual marriage to Patricia Berry. They would be instrumental in formulating Archetypal Psychology, along with a group of young compatriots in what became known as Spring House.  The new ideas taking shape moved psychology away from the dominant scientific\/medical model with its focus on treating the isolated individual, expanding into the fertile realm of culture and the imagination. Amid prodigious writings and lectures, Hillman made mythology and even alchemy relevant to our times.  Delivering the prestigious Terry Lectures at Yale and being nominated for a Pulitzer Prize, Hillman returned to America after living primarily in Europe for thirty years. To the surprise of many, he settled in Dallas and helped found an Institute of Humanities and Culture while taking up how to re-imagine city planning.  Equally surprising was Hillman's subsequent move to rural Connecticut, where he and Pat Berry resided in a nineteenth-century farmhouse. Starting in the mid-'80s, Hillman became a pioneering teacher in the mythopoetic men's movement alongside Robert Bly and Michael Meade-where deep talk about fathers and sons and male-female relationships offered a new kind of group therapy, a cultural therapy.  As Thomas Moore said of Hillman, he possessed a \"genius for taking any theme and shedding serious fresh light on it.\" Along the way, Hillman's insights came to encompass all of the arts, a \"poetic basis of mind\" that connected him to many of the most influential artists and thinkers of the modern era.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51060746617105,"sku":"NIN9781956763188","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51602981552401,"sku":"CIN195676318XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ LIKE_NEW \/ SBYB","offer_id":52880335765777,"sku":"CIN195676318XLN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/195676318X.jpg?v=1751381656"},{"product_id":"life-and-ideas-of-james-hillman-book-dick-russell-9781956763577","title":"The Life and Ideas of James Hillman","description":"Volume III of Dick Russell's monumental biography, The Life and Ideas of James Hillman, takes up the final decades of the pioneering depth psychologist's explorations of \"Soul in the World.\" Hillman's twenty-three-year relationship and ultimately marriage to visual artist Margot McLean provides the backdrop for the diversity of his wide-ranging pursuits-where the aesthetic and the imagination become central motifs for the founder of archetypal psychology.   Hillman's cultural explorations resulted in six provocative books between 1991 and 2004, including The Soul's Code that became an international bestseller. He also took up themes of therapy, the business world, aging, ecology and war. In public lectures he traversed a still broader path, delving into everything from architecture to pornography.   This volume examines, through the eyes of the participants, the controversial Festival of Archetypal Psychology at Notre Dame University. It analyzes the complex and often fraught relationship with German psychologist and Jungian analyst Wolfgang Giegerich. It looks at Hillman's unique collaborative efforts with Thomas Moore, Michael Ventura and bell hooks, along with Hillman's penchant for making unusual friends.   Why was Hillman more popular in Italy and Japan than in his native America? His many travels to, and deep affinity for, these two vastly different countries is explored in depth. Was Hillman a good analyst? A compelling classroom instructor? What kind of father was he? Interviews with many of Hillman's patients, as well as colleagues at the institute where he taught and with several of his children, reveal the man's strengths as well as weaknesses.   The biography culminates with Hillman's surprising discovery that his predecessor C.G. Jung's Red Book presaged where he was seeking to move psychology. In his eighties, how Hillman faced physical failings and ultimately death serve as life lessons for anyone confronting their own mortality.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51061030256913,"sku":"NIN9781956763577","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1956763570.jpg?v=1751316193"},{"product_id":"striper-wars-book-dick-russell-9781559636322","title":"Striper Wars","description":"When populations of striped bass began plummeting in the early 1980s, author and fisherman Dick Russell was there to lead an Atlantic coast conservation campaign that resulted in one of the most remarkable wildlife comebacks in the history of fisheries. As any avid fisherman will tell you, the striped bass has long been a favorite at the American dinner table; in fact, we've been feasting on the fish from the time of the Pilgrims. By 1980 that feasting had turned to overfishing by commercial fishing interests. Striper Wars is Dick Russell's inspiring account of the people and events responsible for the successful preservation of one of America's favorite fish and of what has happened since. Striper Wars is a tale replete with heroes - and some villains - as the struggle to save the striper migrated down the coast from Massachusetts to Maryland. Russell introduces us to a postman at arms against a burly trap-net fisherman, a renowned state governor caving to special interests, and a fishing-tackle maker fighting alongside marine biologists. And he describes how champions of this singular fish blocked power plants and New York's Westway Project that would otherwise compromise its habitat. Unfortunately, those who cheered the triumphant ending to the campaign, as the coastal states enacted measures that enabled the striped bass to make its comeback, have found the peace transitory - there is now a new enemy emerging on the front. In recent years a chronic bacterial disease has struck more than seventy percent of the striped bass population in the primary spawning waters of the Chesapeake Bay. Malnutrition seems to be a significant factor, brought on by the same overfishing that plagued the bass in the first battle - only this time, the overfishing is devastating menhaden, the silvery little fish upon which the bass feed. Lessons learned during the first conservation battle are being applied here, highlighting a need for a whole new ecosystem-based approach to conserving species. Only with constant vigilance by concerned citizens, Dick Russell reminds us, can environmental victories be sustained. This particular fish story is a personal one for him, and he follows the striper's saga today all the way to California, where the fish was introduced in 1879 and where agribusiness now threatens its future. For his conservation work during the 1980s Russell received a citizen's Chevron Conservation Award.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51266159411473,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51693754450193,"sku":"CIN1559636327VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52037934645521,"sku":"CIN1559636327G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1559636327.jpg?v=1750991570"},{"product_id":"ufos-uaps-book-dick-russell-9781510783041","title":"UFOs \u0026 UAPs","description":"Der Titel Entfesselt spiegelt das Kernthema des Romans wider: Annas tiefgreifende Transformation und ihre Befreiung von emotionalen Fesseln der Vergangenheit. Er verk rpert ihren Weg, sich von inneren Blockaden zu l sen und zu ihrer wahren Identit t zu finden. Zu Beginn ist Anna innerlich gefangen gefesselt durch ihre gescheiterte Ehe, die schwierige Beziehung zu ihrem Vater und berufliche Stagnation. Doch der Roman zeichnet ihren Weg der Befreiung nach. Ihre Reise ist gepr gt von impulsiven Entscheidungen, wie Ausfl gen nach St. Pauli, aber auch Momenten tiefer Selbstreflexion, etwa am Elbstrand. Dieser Weg f hrt sie zu einer neuen Freiheit. Entfesselt beschreibt Annas Entwicklung von anf nglich chaotischen Ausbr chen hin zu einer bewussten, Selbst bestimmten Freiheit. Ihre Entwicklung wird sichtbar in den verschiedenen Phasen von der Suche nach Ablenkung bis hin zur tiefen Reflexion und der bewussten Entscheidung f r David und ihre wiederentdeckten kreativen Ambitionen. Der Roman steht in der Tradition von Selbstfindungsromanen und verankert diese im modernen Hamburg. Annas Reise betrifft nicht nur ihre romantischen Beziehungen, sondern ebenso ihre kreative Entfaltung und ihre Entwicklung als Frau. Es geht um die Befreiung von Erwartungen und die Suche nach der eigenen Stimme in einer komplexen Welt.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51861627273489,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51861627535633,"sku":"NGR9781510783041","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781510783041.jpg?v=1779963036"},{"product_id":"black-genius-book-dick-russell-9780786705733","title":"Black Genius","description":"In search of distinctly African-American qualities of genius, Russell has conducted interviews and historical research that explore the roots of black achievement in America.  of photos.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53164336382225,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53164336742673,"sku":"CIN0786705736G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780786705733.jpg?v=1772133525"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-ch\/collections\/autor-buecher-von-dick-russell.oembed?page=2","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
