Jamaica Gleaner Commentary
published: Thursday | December 28, 2006

EDITORIAL - The art of Shane Warne
In his book about all things, but mostly cricket, the great West Indian thinker, C.L.R. James, posits the game as a mirror of humanity, of greater consequence than our individual selves. Cricket in that context transcends sport.

Prospects for cancer drugs

In the shadow of the reappearance of malaria and a resurgence of leptospirosis, Dr. Henry Lowe and his U.S.-based colleague, Dr. Joseph Bryant, have announced prospects for cancer drugs from two Jamaican plants. - Martin Henry


FOREIGN FOCUS - The outlook for the world economy

I left Oxford on a cold, damp morning when the streetlamps were reduced to glowing balls in the thick fog of winter. The Christmas rush awaited me, but still, it was good to return to the warm air of Kingston. - John Rapley
