Det här är berättelsen om Romson reklambyrå, verksamma 1996 – 2002, en tid då dagstidningarna fortfarande var jättestora, både till läsekrets och format, då internet fortfarande var ett spännande framtidslöfte, och då reklamkreatörer fortfarande var förlänade med en slags rockstjärnestatus. Berättelsen följer byrån: dess tillblivelse, uppgång och fall. Det är en historia som rymmer både passion och svek, och som ger en underhållande inblick i en reklambyrås vardag åren runt förra sekelskiftet.
Jan Lindforss var verksam inom reklambranschen i över 30 år på flera av Sveriges mest framgångsrika reklambyråer. Nedlagd på grund av framgång är hans minnesskildring av hur han kom in i branschen, och om personer och händelser som kom att forma hans yrkesbana.

'I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter into one of the most creative periods of my life.'Steve JobsSteve Jobs in Exile tells the largely unexplored story of the dozen years Steve Jobs spent building NeXt in the aftermath of his firing from Apple, the company he founded, in 1985. This period would see Jobs at his most creative, vulnerable and intense. It would redefine him as a designer and a leader, ultimately leading to the later resurgence and dominance of Apple following his triumphant return. Yet this crucial period remains woefully under-covered. Award-winning writer Geoffrey Cain changes that.Utilising a trove of new material, including dozens of hours of unbroadcast footage of Jobs at NeXT's meetings and retreats, new interviews and unpublished oral histories with Jobs and his colleagues, new first-hand material and countless internal documents, Steve Jobs in Exile is the definitive history of the most remarkable period in the life of Steve Jobs.

This book lavishly illustrates the first 50 years of Apple’s history through stunning, full-color photographs.Instant New York Times BestsellerIn time for Apple’s 50th anniversary, CBS Sunday Morning correspondent David Pogue tells the iconic company’s entire life story: how it was born, nearly died, was born again under Steve Jobs, and became, under CEO Tim Cook, the most valuable company in the world. The book features new facts that correct the record and illuminate its subversive culture and fresh interviews with the legendary figures who shaped Apple into what it is today.On April 1, 1976, two scruffy twentysomethings, both named Steve, founded a startup. Their goal: To bring the revolutionary power of computers to everyone.Over the next five decades, Apple reshaped the technology and cultural landscapes, introducing the public to breakthroughs like the mouse, laser printing, CD-ROM, WiFi, digital video, home networking, touchscreen phones, and tablets. Jobs’s obsessive eye for detail set the stage for products—Mac, iMac, iPod, iTunes, iPhone, iPad, AirPods, Apple Watch—that married advanced technology with beauty, simplicity, and fine design.Deeply researched and lavishly illustrated, Apple: The First 50 Years includes new interviews with 150 key people who made the journey, including Steve Wozniak, John Sculley, Jony Ive, and many current designers, engineers, and executives. The book busts long-held myths; goes backstage for both the titanic successes (450 million iPods, 700 million iPads, 2.2 billion iPhones) and the instructive failures (Lisa, Apple III, MobileMe); and assesses the forces that challenge Apple’s dominance as it enters its second half century.Bursting with tales of frenetic all-nighters, engineering genius, and creative rebellion, this book is a true testament to Apple’s unique and innovative vision, and a must read for anyone whose life Apple has touched.

Under fyra decennier har jag haft förmånen att arbeta med några av världens mest ikoniska varumärken inom spel och film. Jag vill ge er en inblick i brädspelens glädje och videospelens evolution, genom försäljnings- och marknadsstrategier, teknikskiften och personliga upplevelser. Den handlar om spelens utveckling, människor som jag jobbat med, olika kulturer och beslut som jag fattat. Välkommen in bakom kulisserna i spelvärlden. Det här är min berättelse. Stefan Lampinen
Stefan Lampinen har jobbat med spel i över fyrtio år. Med start i Luleå och egen brädspelsbutik, vidare till Stockholm och rollspel, befann han sig snart mitt i händelsernas centrum i samband med BRIO:s lansering av SEGA i Norden. Det här var en tid då TV-spelmarknaden växte i rekordfart.
Efter att ha byggt upp Electronic Arts nordiska verksamhet tog han klivet ut i Europa i tunga chefspositioner som Vice President of European Sales och senare VD för affärsområdet Centraleurope med bas i Tyskland.
Karriären gick vidare till Microsoft, först i den intensiva Europalanseringen av Xbox 360 och därefter i rollen som VD för Emerging Markets. Sedan rekryterades han till Warner Bros. där han ledde transformationen in i den digitala eran. Genom dessa nyckelroller var Stefan en tongivande pionjär bakom det som idag är det svenska spelundret. Idag verkar Stefan som rådgivare inom spel och media. Här delar han med sig av sitt perspektiv på spelbranschens utveckling – från pionjärandan 1982 – till den mogna industri vi ser idag. Från hobbyprogrammerare till Det Svenska Spelundret. Från utskälld barnafiende till erkänd kulturyttring.

'Compelling .. a very interesting, challenging read' - Alastair Campbell, co-host of The Rest Is Politics'Brilliant … this is such a crucial book, and it's a book that had to be written. Everyone go and get it' - Owen Jones'I cannot recommend it enough. A stunning work of data analysis proving the genocide incitement perpetrated by legacy liberal media' - Matthew Remski, co-author of ConspiritualityAs bombs rained down on Gaza in October 2023, images of mass death and destruction gripped the world, and openly genocidal statements from Israeli leaders foretold the magnitude of horrors to come. But the US media was quick to downplay, obscure, and repackage an emerging campaign of extermination into a slick “war on terror” framework. How to Sell a Genocide is a thorough indictment of US corporate media's role in enabling—and, at times, directly inciting—one of the most devastating campaigns of mass killing in modern memory. Johnson unpacks how major news outlets like The New York Times, CNN, and MSNBC systematically sanitized Israel's war crimes, hid the US’s central role, and dehumanized the Palestinian people.Drawing from deep, original data-driven analysis, Johnson dissects the mechanics of propaganda, from the selective empathy, strategic omissions, overt racism and repetition of state-sanctioned falsehoods, to the demonization of humanitarian workers and dishonest coverage of campus protests. With clarity and moral force, Johnson argues that the genocide could not have been sustained without the active, sustained complicity of the US media.All royalties from the book will be donated to the Middle East Children's Alliance.

Kaplan, author of Waste LandAs Trump wages a tariff war with China, seeking to boost domestic electronics manufacturing, this book offers an unparalleled insight into why his strategy is embarrassingly naïve.Apple isn’t just a brand; it’s the world’s most valuable company and creator of the 21st century’s defining product. The iPhone has revolutionized the way we live, work and connect. But Apple is now a victim of its own success, caught in the middle of a new Cold War between two superpowers.On the brink of bankruptcy in 1996, Apple adopted an outsourcing strategy. By 2003 it was lured to China by the promise of affordable, ubiquitous labour. As the iPod and iPhone transformed Apple’s fortunes, their sophisticated production played a seminal role in financing, training, supervising and supplying Chinese manufacturers – skills Beijing is now weaponizing against the West.Investigative journalist Patrick McGee draws on 200 interviews with former Apple executives and engineers to reveal how Cupertino’s choice to anchor its supply chain in China has increasingly made it vulnerable to the regime’s whims. Both an insider’s historical account and a cautionary tale, Apple in China is the first history of Apple to go beyond the biographies of its top executives and set the iPhone’s global domination within an increasingly fraught geopolitical context.

What happens when intelligent machines aren’t just in our pockets but are also driving our cars, making our decisions, folding our laundry, and educating our kids?You’ve heard the hype: AI will make us healthier, give every child a personalized tutor, run our businesses more efficiently, return hours of free time to our overworked brains, and make discoveries previously unimagined by humankind. The AI future is going to be unlike any other technological revolution. But what does that really mean? And will AI truly make life better?To find out, award-winning journalist Joanna Stern surrendered her life to artificial intelligence for one year. The results are both hilarious and unsettling.I Am Not a Robot is like a time machine trip to the very near future, where AI promises to be your doctor, chauffeur, teacher, masseuse, coworker, therapist, financial planner, chef, housekeeper, and even . . . romantic partner. Your colleague might be using ChatGPT to write emails at work, but Joanna used AI tools and robots to do household chores, to manage her health, and to transport her family on vacation. If there was a decision to make or a task to do, she let AI go first. Along the way, she conducted exclusive interviews with the tech leaders building this future, then reported back from the front lines as your funny, no-nonsense tour guide.Of course, tech’s sunny promises never tell the whole story, and that’s what Joanna is here to share. Filled with illustrations and photographs, this book offers less hype, more clarity, and as little jargon as humanly (or robotically) possible. It’s an AI guide for ordinary people—not the tech bros who tried to sell you a cruise to the metaverse or an NFT of a cartoon monkey.This book is not the definitive story, because we’re only a few years into the AI revolution. But after a year of living as a human lab rat, Joanna delivers one of the clearest—and funniest—pictures yet of what’s really happening and what it means for you.

The hidden costs of artificial intelligence—from natural resources and labor to privacy, equality, and freedom “This study argues that [artificial intelligence] is neither artificial nor particularly intelligent. . . . A fascinating history of the data on which machine-learning systems are trained.”—New Yorker “A valuable corrective to much of the hype surrounding AI and a useful instruction manual for the future.”—John Thornhill, Financial Times “It’s a masterpiece, and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it.”—Karen Hao, senior editor, MIT Tech Review What happens when artificial intelligence saturates political life and depletes the planet? How is AI shaping our understanding of ourselves and our societies? Drawing on more than a decade of research, award‑winning scholar Kate Crawford reveals how AI is a technology of extraction: from the minerals drawn from the earth to the labor pulled from low-wage information workers to the data taken from every action and expression. Crawford reveals how this planetary network is fueling a shift toward undemocratic governance and increased inequity. Rather than taking a narrow focus on code and algorithms, Crawford offers us a material and political perspective on what it takes to make AI and how it centralizes power. This is an urgent account of what is at stake as technology companies use artificial intelligence to reshape the world.

I samband med att tidningen firar sina 150 första år utkommer denna tabloidstora bok där 450 av DN:s förstasidor återges. Tidningssidorna är hämtade från Kungliga Bibliotekets samlingar och utgör ett imponerande dokument över vår moderna historia. Här finns nyheterna som skakat världen, svarta rubriker om krigsutbrott, folkmord och naturkatastrofer men också glada nyheter om medicinska upptäckter, tekniska landvinningar och bragdartade idrottssegrar. DN:s tidningsmakare använde sig tidigt av fotografiets slagkraft och i denna bok återfinns många klassiska pressbilder från viktiga världshändelser. Men rubrikerna, bilderna och annonserna skildrar också Sveriges utveckling från fattigstat till välfärdsland och Stockholms förvandling från liten nordisk huvudstad till mångkulturell metropol. DN:s förstasidor är historiska ögonblicksbilder. När man med nutidens kunskap om dåtiden läser rapporteringen om svunna dagars viktigaste händelser skapas fascinerande perspektiv på historien.

At sixty-one, he set off on a new mission: to escape poverty, obscurity and the humiliation of kids at the bus stop laughing at him by writing a smash hit. But what is the cost of a dream?In 1980, Lawrence formed Felt, releasing ten albums and ten singles in ten years. In 1991, he reinvented himself with novelty-pop outfit Denim. Signed to EMI, riding the wave of Britpop, in 1997, Denim's song 'Summer Smash' became Radio 1's Single of the Week and looked like a sure-fire hit. Then Princess Diana was killed in a car crash. All copies were melted down. Crushing depression, addiction and homelessness followed... but in the face of it all, Lawrence never gave up.In Street-Level Superstar, bestselling author and journalist Will Hodgkinson follows Lawrence as he rebuilds his life. He gets mistaken for an old lady by an amorous pensioner, is reduced to dragging sacks of 2p coins to his local bank and wanders through London's distant suburbs in search of lyrical inspiration. As they walk together down rain-soaked streets, Will tells the story of Britain's most eccentric cult star. Will he write the greatest song the world has ever known before the year is out? And was it worth sacrificing everything - family, relationships, health, sanity - for art?

Birdnest records startade 1983 under namnet BIRDSKIT RECORDS i mitt pojkrum. Lagret fanns länge under min säng. Med tiden växte både bolaget och visionerna och namnet ändrades till BIRDNEST RECORDS och blev under 90-talet ett av sveriges största skivbolag i punkgenren. Vi vill med denna bok berätta om bolaget som på många sätt förändrade inte bara mitt liv utan även en massa andra människors, mitt i det stora och andras lite mer i det lilla. Det är också en historia om hur musikindustrin genomgick inte bara en utan två stora förändringar. Först med CD-formatets intåg och sedan med hur vi idag streamar musik online. Bolaget finns i allra högsta grad även om vi idag inte gör lika mycket väsen av oss. Vi har därför valt att kalla projektet "Boken om BIRDNEST RECORDS från 1982 till framtiden". / Per Granberg 2024

Starting with his coverage of the largest tornado in Kansas history, legendary correspondent, anchorman, and producer Bill Kurtis details his whirlwind career reporting American history as it unfolded, from the Chicago Seven to Charles Manson to Agent Orange. A fast-paced, entertaining, and inspiring story about the potent combination of talent and luck in the network era of television.From his beginnings as a kid from Kansas working at local radio and television stations to pay for college and law school, Bill Kurtis had a hunger for telling stories and finding the truth. With passion, skill, and just the right amount of luck, Kurtis’s reporting of the infamous Topeka Tornado of 1966 launched him into a whirlwind career in broadcast journalism. Only four years later, after passing the Kansas bar exam, Kurtis had already reported four of the largest trials of the twentieth century: Richard Speck, the Chicago Seven, Charles Manson, and Angela Davis.During his career as a West Coast correspondent for Cronkite’s CBS Evening News, anchorman and foreign correspondent at the revolutionary local newsroom at WBBM-TV Chicago, co-anchor with Dianne Sawyer at CBS Morning News, and beyond, Kurtis brought history to the American people in real time.Recounting moments in his remarkable career as a television journalist, Kurtis brings us into some of the most iconic moments of the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s. He was in the streets during the riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago; he uncovered the truth about the deadly effects of Agent Orange during the Vietnam War; he was the first US television journalist to return to Chernobyl after the infamous nuclear disaster; and much more. Kurtis also offers an insider look at how television evolved from an emerging news source to the dominating force in American media.A natural storyteller, Kurtis remembers his career with honesty and insight and gives a rare picture of American history and broadcast journalism.
