| Synopsis: |
The 3 volume "Encyclopedia of International Sports Studies" provides comprehensive coverage of all aspects of the science, social science and medicine of sport. The "Encyclopedia" is alphabetically organised and consists of: principal entries of 3000 words covering disciplinary areas, e.g. sports economics, sports history; large informational entries of 1200 words on broad topics, e.g. resistance training and diagnosis of sports injuries; medium informational entries of 600 words on more specific topics, e.g. cross training and projectile motion; and, small entries of 300 words comprising entries on narrower topics and small overviews directing the reader onwards, e.g. metabolism, overview, motivation, overview, and muscle tension length relationship. The aim of the editors has been to produce a comprehensive work which will be of use to a wide variety of users: students, teachers, researchers, and professionals (coaches, development officers, physiotherapists, etc.). Entries are accessibly written and both facts-fronted and critical. Entries carry cross-references and lists of further reading. There is a full index. |

The Secret Life of Evie Hamilton
Evie Hamilton is the wife of Ant and mother of Anna, and her biggest worry in life is whether or not she can fit a manicure in on her way to fetch Anna from clarinet lessons. She doesn't think about much else outside her own, charmed circle. There simply isn't time. But all that is about to change.

Home
Julie Andrews has never before revealed the true story of her childhood and upbringing. In HOME she vividly recreates the years before the movies. The family moved to London, and there are vivid scenes of life during the Blitz. Her stepfather encouraged her to have singing lessons. By the time she was a teenager, she was supporting her whole family with her singing. A London Palladium pantomime led to a leading role in THE BOYFRIEND on Broadway at 19. Parts in MY FAIR LADY opposite Rex Harrison and CAMELOT with Richard Burton soon followed. HOME is an honest, touching and revealing memoir of the early life of a true icon.
