Inscribed by the author on the fep. Inscription reads For Lillian Nolan, Keep up the good work! David Hemenway. David Hemenway (born 1945) is a Professor of Health Policy at the Harvard School of Public Health. He has a B.A. (1966) and Ph.D. (1974) from Harvard University in economics. He is the director of the Harvard Injury Control Research Center and the Harvard Youth Violence Prevention Center. He is also currently a James Marsh Visiting Professor-at-Large at the University of Vermont. Hemenway has written over 130 articles and five books in the fields of economics and public health. Hemenway began his research in the field of injury prevention in the 1960s, when he helped investigate product safety for Ralph Nader as one of "Nader's Raiders". Since then, he has become well known for studying gun violence and how it can be prevented. In Private Guns, Public Health, Hemenway, argues that the widespread ownership of firearms in private hands in the U.S. promotes the spread of the "disease" of gun violence, and he takes a collective interpretation of the Second Amendment while stating that increased regulations are absolutely necessary in the purposes of public safety. Hemenway makes the central case that "more guns in a community lead to more homicide". Hemenway interprets the issues of gun violence and gun politics in the U.S. through a public health lens, which he believes "emphasizes prevention rather than fault-finding, blame, or revenge." More

Foreword by Arthur Krock. The Enemy Within [The McClellan Committee's Crusade Against Jimmy Hoffa and Corrupt Labor Unions] is a book by Robert F. Kennedy first published in 1960. The work details events and information uncovered between 1956 and 1959 by the United States Senate Select Committee on Improper Activities in Labor and Management in which Kennedy served as chief counsel. As Robert Kennedy was intimately involved the book is somewhat autobiographical. Robert Kennedy describes the Teamsters Union as the most powerful institution in the United States aside the United States Government itself. Robert Francis "Bobby" Kennedy (November 20, 1925 – June 6, 1968) was an American politician and lawyer who served as the 64th United States Attorney General from January 1961 to September 1964, and as a U.S. Senator from New York from January 1965 until his assassination in June 1968. From 1957 to 1959 he made a name for himself while serving as the chief counsel to the Senate's McClellan Committee under chairman John L. McClellan. Kennedy was given authority over testimony scheduling, areas of investigation, and witness questioning by McClellan, a move that was made by the chairman to limit attention to himself and allow outrage by labor to be directed toward Kennedy. In a famous scene, Kennedy squared off with Jimmy Hoffa during the antagonistic argument that marked Hoffa's testimony. More
