AVAILABLE TO PRE-ORDER NOW HEADERS ARE THRILLING. BUT FOOTBALL IS FACING A CONCUSSION CRISIS. IS HEADING WORTH IT? Heading the ball is considered as much a part of football as passing, tackling and shooting. Pelé, Cristiano Ronaldo, Robin Van Persie - all have executed memorable headers. But the impact can cause lasting damage. Heading for Trouble is an essential exposé on this dynamic yet increasingly controversial skill. The human brain is a jelly, floating in a protective fluid, and there is clear scientific evidence that even minor impacts, such as heading, can lead to a neurodegenerative brain disease. Through new research and exclusive interviews with former players and neurological experts, Dr Kevin Moore, consultant researcher and founding director of the National Football Museum, explores the fascinating history of heading in football and the dangerous, frequently tragic consequences it can cause. He highlights the football establishment''s inaction and exposes what may be the game''s greatest ever scandal. Heading for Trouble brilliantly brings this urgent issue into sharp focus and explores how football and heading can move forward without such tragic cost to its players.

September, 1813 The United States'' second war with Great Britain has thus far been disheartening for the young country. The American invasion of Canada from New York has been thoroughly repelled. The U.S. Navy has suffered a string of embarrassing defeats along the Atlantic Seaboard. Entire swaths of the Northwest Territory are now under His Majesty''s control. But the Americans are not without hope. Crewman Joshua Nelson is serving his country aboard the USS Niagara, the flagship of Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry. The American fleet has the dangerous yet pivotal opportunity to wrest Lake Erie from British hands and with it the supply line for their troops in the Northwest Territory.

""Comedic Police Reports"" offers a unique and humorous take on true crime by exploring the unintentionally funny side of law enforcement. The book delves into real police reports, showcasing the bizarre and absurd incidents that officers encounter daily. It highlights how even in serious situations, humor emerges, offering a fresh perspective on the justice system. Did you know that some police reports contain unintentionally hilarious excuses from perpetrators or detail truly ridiculous criminal behavior? The book examines the human element within law enforcement and the surprising frequency of absurd crimes, using actual police reports as primary source material. Organized into three parts, it begins by introducing the concept of unintentional humor, then presents categorized reports highlighting different types of humor, and concludes by analyzing the broader implications of this humor. This approach reveals the lighter side of crime and the often-overlooked human interactions between officers and the public. This book is valuable because it presents serious topics in an accessible and entertaining way, making it perfect for anyone interested in true crime but seeking a more lighthearted approach. It''s not just about crime; it''s about the quirky and sometimes unbelievable situations that arise, offering a much-needed dose of levity while still respecting the seriousness of the subject matter.

A Shadow Stirs. A Mystery Unfolds. A Force Awakens. Private investigator Damian Knight doesn’t just chase criminals—he follows the whispers of the dead. When a routine case takes a dark turn, he’s drawn into a chilling mystery that defies reason, pulling him deeper into the supernatural than ever before. As eerie visions, cryptic warnings, and the presence of something far more sinister begin to unravel the world around him, Damian realizes he’s not just solving a case—he’s being hunted by a force beyond comprehension. With the help of an unlikely ally and a ghost who refuses to move on, Damian must navigate a city teetering on the edge of darkness. But some truths are better left undiscovered, and the deeper he digs, the more the darkness calls his name. A gripping supernatural noir thriller, The Kraze blends mystery, horror, and suspense into an unforgettable journey into the unknown.

""Corporate Fraud"" explores the dark side of finance, dissecting instances where the relentless pursuit of profit eclipses ethical conduct, leading to significant corporate downfalls. The book navigates the intricate world of financial malfeasance, accounting scandals, and the regulatory efforts designed to curb them. Readers will gain insights into fraudulent financial reporting and insider trading, understanding how these elements shape the modern financial landscape and the importance of investor confidence. The book uniquely emphasizes that while financial regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and Dodd-Frank Act are vital, they are insufficient without a strong ethical foundation within an organization. The book progresses by first laying the groundwork with fundamental fraud concepts and motivations. It then delves into high-profile cases like Enron, WorldCom, and Bernie Madoff''s Ponzi scheme, dissecting accounting manipulations, internal control failures, and regulatory oversights. By examining court documents, regulatory filings, and forensic accounting reports, the book offers a comprehensive understanding of each case. Ultimately, the book concludes with strategies for both detecting and preventing corporate fraud, emphasizing the ethical responsibilities of individuals and organizations to foster a culture of integrity.

The Book of Demons, the much-anticipated sequel to The Book of Souls, finds Jack Kelly in the fight of his life. This time, he''s not battling ghosts. His nemesis is the shapeshifting necromancer, Mr. Philips, who inhabits both the world of the living and the world of the dead. When Mr. Philips discovers a powerful, cursed painting whose magic he can use for personal gain, he will stop at nothing to acquire it...including murder. Before he can get his hands on it, the painting goes missing and its artist is found dead. Enraged, Mr. Philips vows to hunt it down. But someone else finds it first: Jack, a teenage mystic who understands the painting''s tremendous power and would do anything to keep Mr. Philips from harnessing it. Along with two unexpected allies-a non-verbal autistic child and the spirit of a dead nun-Jack battles to keep the painting away from Mr. Philips. But as the stakes rise along with the body count, their epic battle for possession of the painting may cost Jack everything and everyone he loves. Praise for The Book of Souls "An eerie tone permeates the entire story, with even mundane events feeling off-kilter. The whole cast seems to have multiple personas, all tinged with darkness." - Foreword Clarion Review "... a Spiritual roller coaster ride! Harry Potter meets the Exorcist!" - American Online Radio

The dead don''t come back, but some never leave... Jack Kelly remembers everything about his wife and children. The wonderful smell of his wife''s hair, the way she whispers to him at night. His three children running through the house, the sound of their laughter. That was his life before the accident. His near-death experience left him in the in-between space, somewhere between this world and whatever comes next. But he recovered and woke up as his thirteen-year-old self. The doctors tell him it is a false memory, a result of his fall and the insult to his brain from his injuries. "How can a thirteen-year-old boy have a wife and three children?" They ask. But how can he see and hear dead people, demons, ghosts, and shadowy creatures? And if they exist, then is it so inconceivable to believe that Jack''s life as a 47-year-old man with a wife and children existed too? Jack begins his journey to find out why and how. And, in the end, he resolves to find his way back to his true existence, back to his family. The Book of Souls is the first book in the series. The Book of Demons is coming...

Our view of football will never be the same again... Written by a world-respected football historian, this football history/gift title reveals the global game''s greatest myths and untruths. Football has been completely mythologized and many of the things football fans think they know about football and its history turn out not to be true. We want to believe the myths, and so they become accepted. So much football writing is not properly researched, and so the myths get repeated... again and again and again. Backed up by the highest level of academic research yet written in an accessible, mass-market style, the book will explore the truth behind many accepted myths. For example, did you know: - The Germans took football to Brazil, not the English - Rugby and not football could quite easily have been the world''s leading sport - There are gay professional players ....and always have been! - Goalkeepers should not dive for penalties - Football hooliganism did not begin in England - Shirt colours do make a difference - Cambridge and not Sheffield is the home of the oldest football club in the world - Arsenal should not be in the Premier League... they cheated to be there - The Dynamo Kiev team were not executed after beating a German SS team in 1941 - England did not win the World Cup fairly in 1966 ... but not in the way you think! Written by Kevin Moore, the founding director of the National Football Museum (the world''s leading football museum), this thoroughly researched and authoritative book will debunk more than 50 of the greatest myths surrounding football.

A collection of my favourite photos that I have taken over the years.

Perhaps you’ve heard that Alvin Plantinga resolved the logical problem of evil decades ago and that even most atheists agree. But, what if you aren’t most folks? What if you find yourself in that minority of folks who still worry about the compatibility of God and evil? What if you question Plantinga’s dubious suggestion that God’s desire for moral good is a good enough reason for Him to allow evil (if, as it turned out, He couldn’t get any moral good without allowing at least some evil)? What is the resolve for worries such as these? God, Conceivability, and Evil is about resolving the logical problem of evil for the rest of us. And, importantly, it is about doing so in a way that allows us to avoid BS-ing ourselves and others in the process. The solution that Moore defends to the logical problem of evil, in view of his worries about Plantinga’s Free Will Defense, is philosophically interesting, methodologically intuitive, theologically consistent and apologetically pertinent.

Psychology straddles areas from the biological to the social and cultural. Within that vast range, there have been recent explosions of interest in neuropsychology, genetics and epigenetics, and the evolutionary bases of mindedness. Correspondingly, there have been conceptual innovations and new empirical evidence in relation to the embodied, social and discursive processes supporting mind and personhood. Simultaneously, awareness of developmental processes and their dynamic interweaving of genetic, physiological, neurological, social and cultural elements has also increased. Might such developments help ‘connect the dots’ between diverse aspects of mindedness and the contexts within which it arises? Whilst it seems clear that mind is co-constituted of both biological and socio-cultural processes, how might we bring these disparate realms of knowledge together? In a number of these areas, suggestive integrative possibilities have been explored (e.g., predictive processing, embodied and situated cognition, dynamic developmental systems theory) and insights such as a focus on action, ‘knowledge as skills’, embeddedness and connectivity have been pursued across a range of disciplines. This edited collection of articles bring together such possibilities – and others - in the same forum in order to provide an opportunity to re-visit a recurring discussion within theoretical psychology: The claimed lack of - and potential for - theoretical synthesis and unity. While the chapters range over a number of areas of research, this collection is focused on current prospects for conceptual synthesis within - or convergence of research between - aspects of mind and mindedness. As is clear from the contributions, it highlights integrative conceptual proposals that emphasize action-orientation, process, embeddedness and connectivity – especially between explanatory ‘levels’. Beyond specific proposals for integration, several of the contributions explicitly or implicitly expose broader questions about the purpose of psychological research, the epistemological and ontological commitments required, and the relevant social, political and economic contexts within which such research is performed. This is perhaps inevitable since any aim for synthesis of various understandings of mind will - or should - lead to consideration of the general implications, beyond the ‘science’, that follow from an integrated account of mind and mindedness. Whether or not the contributions in this volume provide insights into profitable paths towards greater theoretical synthesis in the sciences of mind or, alternatively, provide grist for the mill of renewed skepticism over the potential or even desirability of such synthesis is unpredictable. Whichever the outcome, we feel sure that they will help provoke future productive research in, and thinking about, the sciences of mind. Kevin Moore and John Cromby Associate Guest Editors

Comment expliquer que Jacques Henri Lartigue soit soudain devenu l''une des icônes de la photographie du XXe siècle ? Tordant le cou à une vision instinctive et naïve de sa pratique, Kevin Moore revisite dans cet essai la formation du photographe et le processus qui l''a érigé en mythe. Contrairement à l''image communément admise, Lartigue n''est pas qu''un amateur talentueux qui s''est attelé à saisir le flux du monde moderne et mécanique et à photographier les moments heureux de sa vie. Il est un précurseur majeur, qui est parvenu à excéder son époque, hybridant une certaine forme de culture visuelle (photographie amateur, presse illustrée, cinéma) et la photographie d''art. Kevin Moore lui rend ainsi sa juste place dans l''histoire de la photographie et lève le voile de suspicion qui empêchait jusqu''alors d''achever sa canonisation. L''histoire de Lartigue se laisse conter à l''envi. Fils d''un riche banquier et rejeton de la Belle Époque, il était tant épris d''automobiles et d''avions, de mode et de spectacles, qu''il se mit à photographier jusqu''à l''obsession la vie qui l''entourait. Il photographia d''abord le cercle familial, puis les rallyes en Auvergne, les baigneurs à Deauville et Biarritz, les avions à Issy-les-Moulineaux, les sports d''hiver en Suisse et les courses de voiture à Auteuil. Sans oublier l''incessante parade sociale. Idyllique et enviable, la jeunesse de Lartigue fut une telle suite de bonheurs fabuleux qu''elle en semble presque irréelle. En 1962, Lartigue est en vacances aux Etats-Unis quand il débarque dans les bureaux d''un agent new-yorkais. Agé de soixante-neuf ans, il n''est pas plus connu pour ses photographies que pour ses tableaux, or en juin 1963, plus d''une quarantaine de ses premières images est exposée au MoMA. La même année, quelques-unes paraissent dans le magazine Life. Dix ans plus tard, il est l''un des photographes les plus connus au monde.

Volume 6 of Beyond Salsa Bass begins our 4-volume study of the style of Alain Pérez - the composer of La sandunguita, Salsa timba y amor, and Amigo Juan. Pérez is one of the most talented bassists, composers and arrangers of modern Cuban music. He shared a very unique musical chemistry with Issac Delgado and pianist Melón Lewis, the subject of Volumes 6-9 of Beyond Salsa Piano. The bass series follows the piano series exactly, covering the same songs, now from the perspective of the bassist. In addition to transcribing the notes, we also transcribe the percussive sounds that he uses to create his funky style. Each musical example is provided in 16th note notation, 8th note notion and bass tablature. There are corresponding audio and video products for each volume.

At 368 pages, Beyond Salsa for Ensemble, Vol. 1 is the most ambitious of the 15 volume series. The course is designed for college and high school Latin music ensembles and working salsa bands seeking to add modern Cuban "timba" and "songo" material and techniques to their repertoires.The course begins with the basic salsa groove and then presents two modern Cuban grooves (one in 2-3 clave and one in 3-2 clave), with note-for-note transcriptions for piano, bass, bongó, timbales, congas, and drums - all explained in careful detail in a conversational style.The next part of the book teaches 36 rhythm breaks, or "efectos", that can be added to any Latin arrangement. Again, every stroke of every part is meticulously transcribed, with lead sheets also provided for more experienced players.Finally, the book contains a complete chart for performance of a popular Cuban hit by the popular group Los Que Son Son, led by Pupy Pedroso, the subject of several of the Beyond Salsa Piano books.
