Wouldn’t you love to read “Cat on a Hot Tin Drum”?
… are double-barreled book titles:

Horton Hears a Who’s Afraid of Virginia Wolf
The Jungle Book of Mormon
I Sing the Body Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test

But how did they leave out:
The American Way of Death in the Afternoon
Logan’s Run Silent, Run Deep
and, most of all
Moby Dick and Jane
Author: Mark Kleiman
Professor of Public Policy at the NYU Marron Institute for Urban Management and editor of the Journal of Drug Policy Analysis. Teaches about the methods of policy analysis about drug abuse control and crime control policy, working out the implications of two principles: that swift and certain sanctions don't have to be severe to be effective, and that well-designed threats usually don't have to be carried out.
