...recently published cultural study, Pinocchio Goes Postmodern (Routledge; 257 pages). "In Italy the church fathers were once concerned that Pinocchio encouraged rebellion, where the current concern is that the story seems to reward obedience." Collodi's original conception still speaks to modern souls, says co-screenwriter Vincenzo Cerami, because "he's innocent, full of life, existing in an infantile Eden, looking for what Freud called the pleasure principle. He has to accept the principle of reality that includes death and a sense of duty." But it's also the story of every man and woman, says Wunderlich, "Of growing...

This is life in a Nazi concentration camp as presented by Roberto Benigni, the star, director and co-writer (with Vincenzo Cerami) of Life Is Beautiful, which has been winning awards and high popularity in Europe.

Turner and his co-partner, Mark Cerami, have discovered that if you're willing to ignore the heat, controversy translates into cash. Billboard has crowned Priority the industry's "hottest independent label." Priority's dozen rap artists have mined a rich vein of sales, including 13 gold records, 12 platinum and two double-platinum albums. Ice Cube's latest hit, The Predator, entered Billboard's pop and R.-and-B. charts in the No. 1 slots, the first time a rap album debuted at the top of both charts. From a bare-bones crew of three operating...
...that any treatment for this genetic disease, which affects perhaps 2 million people around the world, had to be directed at stopping the characteristic sickling, or distortion, of the red blood cells that occurs after they unload their cargo of oxygen. But how? During cocktail-party chatter, Lab Director Cerami learned from a colleague that a byproduct of urea-a chemical called cyanate-can prevent sickling. Tests on both animals and humans confirmed this, but the cyanate also had toxic side effects on the nervous system. So the Rockefeller scientists suggested adding the cyanate directly to the blood. That idea...
