Sport and the British: A Modern History
ISBN: 9780192852298 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The first book of its kind, this lively history of British sport since 1800 goes beyond a few great names and moments to explain how sports have changed, what they have meant to ordinary people, and reveals what is especially distinctive about British sport in particular. The British were innovators in abandoning traditional, often brutal, sports, and in establishing a code of "fair play," which spread throughout the late Victorian Empire. They were also pioneers in popular sports and in the promotion of organized commercial spectator events, with the accompanying rise of...

Professionals, Amateurs and Performance: Sports Coaching in England, 1789-1914
ISBN: 9783034308243 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book was shortlisted for the Lord Aberdare Prize 2013.
While the relationship between amateurism and sport is well documented, the impact of this ethos on the professional coaches and trainers who directed and supported elite sporting performance has been entirely overlooked. This book explores the foundations of coaching and training practices and chronicles how traditional approaches to performance preparation evolved during the nineteenth century. Drawing on primary material to uncover the life courses of coaches and their families, the author argues that approaches to... This book was shortlisted for the Lord Aberdare Prize 2013.

Building Europe with the Ball: Turning Points in the Europeanization of Football, 1905-1995
ISBN: 9783034319836 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Since 1990, football history has become increasingly important within the field of sport science, yet few studies have centred on the Europeanization of the game from the interwar period onwards. This period saw the creation of a sovereign institution dedicated to European football, the establishment of specific rules about players' transfers and contracts and, in particular, the development of competitions.
This book examines the development of European football between 1905 and 1995 from a transnational perspective. It offers a space for discussion to both early-career and established...

The Barn
ISBN: 9780993974441 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 332 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. On a narrow stretch of desolate beach hundreds of kilometres away from the closest civilization stands an enormous, ancient, wooden barn. Inside, sixteen people of varying ages and backgrounds struggle through icy cold winters, stifling hot summers, and a feast or famine supply of the basic necessities of life, waiting to be chosen. From every surface, surveillance cameras record every moment. There is only one rule to life in the Barn: No one can ever leave. Not willingly. Ash, the youngest of the inhabitants, has never known a life outside of the Barn. He, like most of the others, has been...

ISBN: 9780415675819 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 374 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. What remains of a great sporting spectacle after the last race is run or the final match is played? How can the vast expense of mounting such events be justified? What if there is nothing left behind or what if the legacy is negative, a costly infrastructure which is unused or a debt-ridden host city? The Routledge Handbook of Sport and Legacy addresses perhaps the most important issue in the hosting of major contemporary sporting events: the problem of legacy . It offers a rigorous, innovative and comparative insight into this contested concept from interdisciplinary and practical...

Football, Ethnicity and Community: The Life of an African-Caribbean Football Club
ISBN: 9783034319058 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book is a case study of an African-Caribbean-founded football club, Meadebrook Cavaliers, from the English East Midlands. Covering the years 1970 to 2010, it seeks to address the paucity of research on the British African-Caribbean male experience in leisure and sport as well as on the relationship between -race- and local-level football. The development of the club was intimately connected to wider changes in the social and sporting terrain. Based on a mix of archival and ethnographic research, the book examines the club s growth over four decades, exploring the attitudes, social...

A Brighter Future: Improving the Standard of Living Now and for the Next Generation
ISBN: 9780765634887 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 261 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. As the United States continues its slow climb out of the Great Recession, it is important to focus on new directions to improve the standard of living in America. This book explores what is behind a faltering standard of living in the United States since the early 1980s and what can be done to restore it. The book is uniquely valuable in going beyond mainstream thinking about how to restore prosperity. Economics has traditionally equated economic growth (increases in per capita income) with improvements in quality of life and the standard of living. This book questions that assumption. The...

ISBN: 9781567506792 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Richard Holt draws on his extensive experience in discourse analysis and Web design to present a picture of the Internet as a potentially powerful tool of civic discourse in the third millennium. Beginning with background on two of the Internet's most prevalent communication forms, email discussion messages and Web pages/sites, the book introduces the concepts of monologism and dialogism. Holt advocates a method of discursive analysis called dual reading, in which Internet utterance is analyzed first monologically and then, dialogically. This method is demonstrated by analyzing email...

Sir Walter Scott
ISBN: 9781108034678 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Sir Walter Scott (1771 1832) is famous for his poetry and historical romances such as Ivanhoe and Rob Roy. As the first English-language author to achieve truly international fame in his lifetime, his depiction of Scottish history and culture spread around the world so effectively that it persists even today. Scott also contributed to Scottish history himself: in 1818 he helped to unearth Scotland's missing crown jewels, and he also led the campaign that saved the Scottish banknote when the London Parliament threatened its existence. First published in 1878 in the first series of 'English Men...
