"Ian Rankin once explained to an interviewer (the head of the Indian Communist Party!) that crime fiction is a way of talking about social inequality. Ron Jacobs applies that same maxim to the Sixties... in his wonderfully noir trilogy of those exhilarating and troubled times. And what Rankin does for Edinburgh, Jacobs amply illuminates for the Movement. Much much more than ripping yarns (though they are that too), from a master who's been there, done that, and lived to tell a tale or two."

The Greeks, the Troika, Resistance and History
As we head into 2017, the world seems to be
heading towards even greater uncertainty.
The nationalist rejection of the EU in Britain, the uncertain meaning of
the US election and future (at this writing) results, a seeming desire by
western capitals and Russia for greater war in the Middle East, and various
artificial bubbles created and maintained by the gamblers in the financial
markets; all of these seem to point to more of the same for Greece with an ever
growing likelihood that the next burst financial bubble will take down more
than just those economies considered on the fringe of the central markets. This uncertainty alone is reason enough to
read this book.
