Freddie Flintoff and W.G. Grace: Together at last! W.G. Grace Ate My Pedalo is a spoof 1896 periodical from The Wisden Cricketer archives that looks at cricketing events of 2010 through a Victorian lens. Funny, irreverent and lavishly illustrated, the book draws inspiration from the exuberant sporting papers of the Victorian era to lampoon England cricketers new and old. From Queen Victoria's views on women's cricket to Freddie Flintoff's heroic defiance of the Temperance Movement, no figure - historical or contemporary - is safe. A comedy cricket book of wit, intelligence and cheek that will appeal to cricket fans of all ages, be they members of the MCC or the Barmy Army.

Download Tutenkhamen's Tracksuit Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The optician's prescription for the 1966 World Cup Russian linesman. A news report of an ear-biting scandal in the Roman gladiatorial arena. An advert for Roger Bannister's four-minute egg timer. Andrew Flintoff's bar bill from the 2005 Ashes celebrations. Tutenkhamen's Tracksuit ransacks the dusty lockers and forgotten corners of the world's dressing-rooms to present a unique collection of subverted reality. Satirical, surreal and completely invented, fans of every sport will enjoy this knowing and mischievous hijacking of the defining moments of popular sporting culture. The book illuminates the most famous moments, lives, personalities and controversies in sport with a unique collection of found (i.e. made-up!) objects drawn from throughout history. From match-fixing in Ancient Egypt to Twittering kiss-and-tells, no sporting stone is left unturned. The hundred objects are presented as a unique collection of sporting ephemera curated by Gideon Rupert, Acting Director of the National Museum for Sport and Fishing, Orkney. From spoof diaries, school reports, news articles and intercepted emails to postcards, seating plans, tactical diagrams and cave paintings, each tells the story of a well-known sporting event or personality in a completely irreverent way, alongside curator's notes and spurious academic references. After reading Tutenkhamen's Tracksuit, you'll never look at a museum catalogue in the same way again.

Download Buyology Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.

Download I Kick Therefore I Am Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Ronnie Matthews is a Premier League legend who thinks that little bit bigger. In his career he has known the incredible highs of an England cap (sent off versus San Marino), relationships with some of the most stunning Big Brother contestants of our times and the wild spending lifestyle of a man who has it all (Ronnie was the first footballer to lose £100,000 a week on virtual horseracing at Ladbrokes). But in a career that has taken him from humble beginnings in Watford to cult status at West Ham and then a dream transfer to boyhood love Liverpool, before a swift move to Tranmere, onto non-League football before an unhappy move to Inter Milan and then back to Watford via a short spell in jail in Turkey, Ronnie is a man who knows better than most just how quickly the wheel can turn. Combining the philosophical musings of a Joey Barton, the poetic soul of an Eric Cantona and the urban entrepreneurial verve of a Rio Ferdinand, Ronnie Matthews guides the reader through some of life's biggest questions - death, religion, money, sex, pre-match pasta, Twitter and cars - in a handy-pocket sized book of wit and wisdom that offers the layman an introduction to living life like a Premier League footballer. Illustrated by Ronnie himself in a style he describes as "David James meets Athena poster", I Kick Therefore I Am unlocks the secrets of happiness and inner calm as seen by one of the most controversial and fascinating sportsmen of the modern era.
