Edited by Jim Green You don't have to be Einstein... to know he was a giant in the world of science and physics. This book takes a new, subversive look at Time magazine's "Person of the Century." His passionate opposition to war and racism led the FBI to decide he was "too clever not to track." Yet this harassment by successive U.S. governments failed to silence Einstein's denunciation of U.S. use of nuclear weapons in 1945, his socialist views and his profound philosophy of radical humanism.

Edited by John Davis The trial judge called them "anarchistic bastards." Political activists, Italian-born Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti were framed and executed for murder in a wave of anti-immigrant hysteria in Boston in the 1920s. By illustrating how anarchists and immigrants were the "terrorists" of yesteryear, this book is a grim reminder of the consequences of using fear as a political weapon. Eventually pardoned in 1977 by Governor Dukakis, Sacco and Vanzetti's case sparked an unprecedented international defense campaign-including among its supporters writers, artists, and musicians-and remains one of the most famous political trials in history.
