With over a hundred million viewers for his TV show, Jack Barron is a media star of highest celebrity-think Jerry Springer crossed with Ted Koppel-and his call-in talk show is the perfect platform for reform. But every man has his price, and when a cryogenics millionaire makes Jack an offer he can't refuse-immortality-anything can happen. First published in 1969, Bug Jack Barron established Spinrad's brilliant style and made his name. Its exploration of big business corrupting the democratic process stands out as an unforgettable and bitingly satirical work that remains relevant to today's television and media obsessed culture.
