Incorporating extensive interviews with black Americans who can shed light on Hendrix's complicated racial relationsips, this book explores, among other issues, how Hendirx exploded our complacently segregated world to emerge as an icon for white boys ; why we never hear his songs on black radio ; why black people once viewed him as a hippie Uncle Tom ; his connection to the Black Power movement ; how he electrified soul music and made the electric guitar supplant the human voice ; how he revolutionized the use of technology in popular music ; how he redefined rock fashion ; his sex appeal, especially with black women ; why nobody was mad at him for sleeping with white women ; and how he has subverted and destabilized black masculine stereotypes, changing the way we think not only about black music, but about black identity itself.

The participation of such diverse scientific and technical disciplines as meteorology, astronomy, atmospheric electricity, ionospheric and magnetospheric physics, electromagnetic wave propagation, and radio techniques in the research of atmospherics means that results are published in scientific papers widely spread throughout the literature. This Handbook collects the latest knowledge on atmospherics and presents it in two volumes. Each chapter is written by an expert in his or her field. Topics include the physics of thunderclouds, thunder, global atmospheric electric currents, biological aspects of sferics, and various space techniques for detecting lightning within our own atmosphere as well as in the atmospheres of other planets. Up-to-date applications and methodology are detailed. Volumes I and II offer a comprehensive discussion that together will serve as an important resource for practitioners, professionals, and students alike.
