Sinopsis

Sport Inclusion Struggles examines the experiences of LGBTQ athletes, navigating the pressures of revealing their identities in competitive sports. The book highlights the psychological impact of concealing one's identity, as many athletes face societal pressures and systemic discrimination. A key aspect explored is the prevalence of homophobia and transphobia within sports, which affects athletes' mental health and career trajectories.

 
The book progresses by first introducing core concepts and the history of LGBTQ rights in sports. Second, it presents personal narratives and case studies to illustrate challenges across different sports, covering interactions with teammates, coaches, and fans. Finally, it examines strategies for promoting inclusion, such as policy changes and allyship programs.

 
The analysis includes empirical studies, athlete interviews, and policy analyses, providing a comprehensive understanding of the issues and offering tangible steps toward creating more inclusive sporting environments. What sets this book apart is its intersectional approach, recognizing the diverse backgrounds of LGBTQ athletes shaped by race, gender, and class. It critically analyzes performative allyship, distinguishing between genuine support and superficial gestures. Ultimately, Sport Inclusion Struggles serves as both an informative resource and a call to action for promoting equity in sports.

    Hunting is our heritage, our heart, and our future.
    
    Where does hunting fit in the modern world? To many, it can seem outdated or even cruel, but as On Hunting affirms, hunting is holistic, honest, and continually relevant. Authors Grossman, Miller, and Cunningham dive deep into the ancient past of hunting and examine its position today, demonstrating that we cannot understand humanity without first understanding hunting. Readers will
    
    
    ·       discover how hunting formed us,
    
    
    ·       examine hunting ethics and their adaptation to modernity,
    
    
    ·       understand the challenges, traditions, and reverence of today's hunter,
    
    
    ·       identify hunting skills and their many applications outside the field,
    
    
    ·       learn why hunting is critical to ecological restoration and preservation, and
    
    
    ·       gain inspiration to share hunting with others.
    
    
    Drawing from ecology, philosophy, and anthropology and sprinkled with campfire stories, this wide-ranging examination has rich depths for both nonhunters and hunters alike. On Hunting shows that we need hunting still—and so does the wild earth we inhabit.

    "A MUST READ FOR EVERYONE." —Meb Keflezighi • "A BEAUTIFUL REFLECTION ON WHAT IT MEANS TO KEEP SHOWING UP." —Allyson Felix • "LEFT ME ON THE SIDELINES CHEERING." —Joan Benoit SamuelsonSara Hall shares the story of her record-breaking career and her unconventional path to motherhood via adoption, all while battling insecurities, injuries, and doubters.Sara Hall has been a fixture atop American distance running for more than two decades: first as a national high school champion, then as an NCAA star at Stanford University, and later, as the only pro runner to ever win U.S. titles in the mile and the marathon. She's held the American record in the half marathon, clocked the fastest marathon in the U.S. by a woman aged 40 or older, and represented her country in ​multiple World Championships.But success has never come easy. Fear of failure set in during high school. In college, Sara competed through a results-obsessed culture that carried into her professional career. She battled anxiety and imposter syndrome, alongside outside pressure to quit the sport and instead devote herself to supporting her husband, Olympic marathoner Ryan Hall, and later, her kids. Yet Sara never gave up on the dream of reaching her potential.Fueled by faith, family, and an unbridled love of exploring her limits, Sara has proven the doubters wrong at every turn. When she and Ryan adopted four daughters from Ethiopia, motherhood only made her faster, running personal bests year after year and landing on podiums at the world’s most competitive races. Along the way, she discovered that choosing love over fear allowed her to take risks. She let go of results and embraced the pursuit of excellence instead.For the Love of the Grind is a love letter to running, and the story of Sara’s growth as an athlete, wife, and mom. Through her unflinching honesty and keen introspection, readers will be inspired to chase their dreams, to reimagine what might still be possible, and to embrace their own love of the grind.

    "He's the toughest street fighter alive." Freddie ForemanPicture a man, he’s tall, not excessively so, yet as wide as he is high. This man is a spitting and growling street brawler; a tank full of ready to blow, muscle-fuelled aggression. Imagine, if you will, the comic book style Bulldog of Great British stamp. Well, there you have him! The prototypical face taken from the terraces of an ’80s football fan’s rolled-up newspaper cosh; a poster-boy of malevolence left over from Thatcher’s post-punk Britain.Stormin’ Norman’s his name and when this storm is erupting, he’s like a force-nine gale fused with a hurricane. In his heyday, Norman saw off a plethora of gangland minders, and with his own style of hands-on education, taught Glasgow’s prolific hitman, Billy McPhee, the laws of the Guv’nor’s land.He’s the Godfather of Aylesbury, former British Bare-Knuckle Champion, and undefeated European Boxing Federation ‘Guv’nor’. The loveable lunatic with the heart of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Yes, this my accidental friends, is the new Guv’nor. He is the man who rebuked many a heathen, but was also everyone’s friend, and for all the right reasons. So, settle in with your favourite tipple, and let us regale you with a lifetime of fronting the doors, serving at Her Majesty's pleasure, righting wrongs, and brutal bare-knuckle tear-ups.
