Stimulating though it is, working at Paradigm Press sometimes feels like you're part of a band of Cassandras railing against the end of times. Not the end of the world, just the end of the current world. The way things are. Business as usual, so to speak.

However, business is becoming unusual at breakneck speed, although John Q. Public and his wife, Jane, are doing their best to ignore it. That's why, despite our best efforts, John and Jane always get stuck holding the bag.
