John Coates
The Man Who Built the Snowman
Marie Beardmore
Foreword by Raymond Briggs

John Coates is best known as the producer of The Snowman, When the Wind
Blows, Wind in the Willows, Willows in Winter, and Famous Fred, and as the
man behind the Beatles film Yellow Submarine. This intimate biography takes
the reader on a journey through Coates¹s early life, his years as an army
officer in the 11th Hussars in World War II, and his postwar life as a
distributor for Rank films throughout Asia, before returning to England and
eventually taking over TV Cartoons. With a foreword by Raymond Briggs and an
epilogue by Coates himself, this abundantly illustrated work also includes a
DVD of selections from Coates¹s work.

Human Rights and African Airwaves
Mediating Equality on the Chichewa Radio
Harri Englund

Human Rights and African Airwaves focuses on Nkhani Zam'maboma, a popular
Chichewa news bulletin broadcast on Malawi¹s public radio. The program often
takes authorities to task and questions much of the human rights rhetoric
that comes from international organizations. Highlighting obligation and
mutual dependence, the program expresses, in popular idioms and local
narrative forms, grievances and injustices that are closest to Malawi¹s
impoverished public. Harri Englund reveals broadcasters¹ everyday struggles
with state-sponsored biases and a listening public with strong views and a
critical ear. This fresh look at African-language media shows how Africans
effectively confront inequality, exploitation, and poverty.
