Futurecard has rocketed past Mastercard and Visa to become the only credit card forty million Americans really won't leave home without. Futurecard stockholders are making a killing, none more than entrepreneur Josh Hartley, the man behind Futurecard, whose popularity as a third-party presidential candidate has soared right along with the credit card that seems to cast a spending spell over its users. Now Hartley is a serious contender for the Oval Office in next week's election.

Produktbeschreibung
Futurecard has rocketed past Mastercard and Visa to become the only credit card forty million Americans really won't leave home without. Futurecard stockholders are making a killing, none more than entrepreneur Josh Hartley, the man behind Futurecard, whose popularity as a third-party presidential candidate has soared right along with the credit card that seems to cast a spending spell over its users. Now Hartley is a serious contender for the Oval Office in next week's election.

Futurecard's ad campaign creator Delia Shaw should be pleased. Americans couldn't resist the free $500 in credit offered just for peeling off the tape and activating their Futurecards. And Delia's choice to make stuntman extraordinaire Reb Barnett into Futureman, a character who swoops into America's living rooms in wild live-action, stunt-filled commercials, was a hugely successful masterstrokea superhero with a credit card. But there is clearly something more to the Futurecard phenomenon and Americans seem to be taking the Futurecard's catchphrase, "It's the only way to pay," quite literally.

Reb's interest in Delia goes beyond the professional, and her suspicious disappearance draws him into the warped world of a group called Orion's Light who, possibly led by the next President of the United States, are orchestrating the greatest mind manipulation in history. And unless Reb can intervene, on Election Day, a diabolical act of nanoterrorism will forever change the way we see the world. For the villians behind Orion's Light, beauty is in the eye of the Futurecard holder.

Autorenporträt
CAMERON WEST was born in Chicago, Illinois. He attended Berklee School of Music and Syracuse University and received his undergraduate degree in business and music from the State University of New York. He met his future wife Rikki in 1978 in Boston where he was working as a touring musician and they married in 1981. In 1987 while living in Nashville, Tennessee, where Cam was working as a recording artist and Rikki was attending graduate school at Vanderbilt University, Rikki gave birth to their son Kai. Though Cam and Rikki had a strong relationship and a beautiful, healthy baby, Cam continued to suffer from a number of chronic illnesses that had plagued him since he was a teenager.

In 1988 he and Rikki made the decision to leave Nashville and the music business behind so Cam would be present while Kai was growing up. They settled in a suburb of New York City and Cam went into business in sales. Though his business thrived, his physical health declined, and following a fourth failed sinus surgery in ten years, he was diagnosed with systemic candidiasis and a severely compromised immune system. With Rikki's support and the help of a holistic medical practitioner, he was able to fight his way back to health over a period of almost a year.

When Cam was finally physically healthy, his psyche started to crumble and he began to show profound symptoms of dissociation. Rikki had worked with emotionally disturbed children and had been trained in counseling, and she recognized that Cam desperately needed the help of a mental health specialist. Cam was diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly called Multiple Personality Disorder) in 1993. The Wests moved to California in 1994. In regular therapy with a specialist in dissociative disorders, Cam was accepted into the doctoral program in psychology at Saybrook University in San Francisco and he earned his Ph.D. in 1997. His dissertation was a case study of the experiential aspects of switching and co-consciousness in three persons with DID.

FIRST PERSON PLURAL: My Life as a Multiple (Hyperion, 1999) was Cam's first book. Oprah Winfrey took an interest in Cam and Rikki's story and invited them to be on her television show for a full hour. This appearance was the first of many (including The Today Show with Katie Couric, 20/20, and Entertainment Tonight) for Cam and Rikki, and the book became a New York Times bestseller and was eventually published in twenty-two countri...
