"When James Brazil was sixteen, he applied for a caddie job at a prestigious California country club. To his chagrin, the club would not employ anyone under the age of eighteen. With the aid of his mother's secretary, he managed to falsify his age and get the job. James Brazil had learned at an early age that rules are made to be broke. As he matured, he became acquainted with under-the-counter arrangements, payoffs, the philosophy of you-scratch-my-back-and-I'll-scratch-yours, as well as out-and-out tipoffs that are a part of our society's fabric."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

A social history of cheating and how American history -- through real estate, sports, finance, academics, and of course politics -- has had its unfair share of rigged results and widened the margins on its gray areas. Drawing from the intriguing (and sometimes unbelievable) true stories of the lives of everyday Americans, historian Julie M. Fenster traces the history of the weakening of our national ethics through the practice of cheating. From marital infidelity to financial fraud; rigged sports competitions to corruption in politics and the American education system; nuclear weaponry to beauty pageants; hospitals, TV gameshows, and charities; nothing and no one is exempt. And far from being ostracized, cheaters in every sphere continue to survive and even thrive, casting their influence over the rest of our society. And nowhere is this more obvious than in the recent tectonic shift in politics, where a revolution in our collective attitude toward fraudsters has ushered in a new kind of leadership. Part history of an all-American tradition, part dissection of an ongoing national crisis, Cheaters Always Win is irresistible reading -- a smart, sardonic, and scintillating look into the practice that made America what it is today.
Callahan takes readers on a gripping tour of cheating in America and makes a powerful case for why it matters. The author blames the dog-eat-dog economic climate of the past 20 years for corroding values.

After years of working in corporate retail hell, Daniel is starting his first real office job. He's looking forward to working with normal people, in a stable environment, with reasonable expectations. But Daniel is starting at The Ridgemont. Soon Daniel finds himself dealing with loose animals, potential crime scene cover ups, and clients who routinely demand the impossible. This slacker comedy slaps a humorous take on the culture of America's modern 'cube farm' call centers, and keeps the pace moving fast with a wide cast of characters. From the self-proclaimed prodigy, to the burnout who never never made it to the big time, and even the motherly figure who may or may not be using the office for shady drug deals; this blue collar office job is nothing like what Daniel could have expected.
From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of Empire Falls, this slyly funny, moving novel about a blue-collar town in upstate New York—and about Sully, one of its unluckiest citizens, who has been doing the wrong thing triumphantly for fifty years—is a classic American story. "Remarkable.... A revelation of the human heart." —The Washington Post Divorced from his own wife and carrying on halfheartedly with another man's, saddled with a bum knee and friends who make enemies redundant, Sully now has one new problem to cope with: a long-estranged son who is in imminent danger of following in his father's footsteps. With its uproarious humor and a heart that embraces humanity's follies as well as its triumphs, Nobody's Fool, from Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Richard Russo, is storytelling at its most generous. Nobody’s Fool was made into a movie starring Paul Newman, Bruce Willis, Jessica Tandy, and Melody Griffith. Look for Everybody’s Fool, available now, and Somebody’s Fool, coming soon.
Liberals and conservatives proclaim the end of the American holiday from history. Now the easy games are over; one should take sides. Zizek argues this is precisely the temptation to be resisted. In such moments of apparently clear choices, the real alternatives are most hidden. Welcome to the Desert of the Real steps back, complicating the choices imposed on us. It proposes that global capitalism is fundamentalist and that America was complicit in the rise of Muslim fundamentalism. It points to our dreaming about the catastrophe in numerous disaster movies before it happened, and explores the irony that the tragedy has been used to legitimize torture. Last but not least it analyzes the fiasco of the predominant leftist response to the events.
