  The Highs. The Heartbreaks. The Hangovers. 
  The Personal. The Vulnerable. The Downright Absurd. 
  IT'S TIME TO RELOAD.  
  As was widely predicted, our first book, The Good, The Bad & The Rugby – Unleashed, did not win a Pulitzer Prize. It did, however, scoop Sports Entertainment Book of the Year at the 2025 Charles Tyrwhitt Sports Book Awards (and sold quite a lot of copies), so here we are again, back for a sequel. 
  What more have we to say? It’s a fair question. Hask can mine more new material from a trip to the supermarket than most people can from an entire lifetime – and you won’t be surprised to learn that he hasn’t just been hanging around Asda since our last book came out. He recently turned 40, he’s been through much personal turmoil, he’s done an awful lot of DJing – and he’s had a lot of arguments. Expect much of that, and even some thoughts on rugby, in the following pages. 
  As for Tins, you’ll find out about his early days in rugby, how he had to fight to make it, what he thinks of the state of the game, and his plans to get it back on track. Meanwhile, Alex will tell you all about his career in broadcasting, from making (‘disgusting’) tea and coffee, and presenting some of the greatest rugby matches in history, to getting binned by Sky. 
  We should end by begging you to pardon our previous flippancy. It was, of course, lovely to win that award, as well as very surprising. In fact, The Good, The Bad & The Rugby will never stop surprising us, and its continuing success is largely down to you – our wonderful listeners, viewers and now readers. We do hope you enjoy what follows and that you keep coming back for more. 
  Winners of the Charles Tyrwhitt Sports Book Awards 2025 Sports Entertainment Book of the Year, for their previous book The Good, The Bad and The Rugby – Unleashed. 
  In this non-fiction sequel, Haskell continues to share his humorous memoirs, diving deeper into his personal turmoil and his journey into the world of DJing. His candid revelations, coupled with Tins insights into the state of rugby and Alex's broadcasting career, make this an up-coming bestseller. 
  For fans of Rachel Murphy (Loose Head), Luke Upton (Hard Men of Rugby), Peter Crouch (How to Be an Ex-Footballer), and Jonny Wilkinson (Jonny).

  This book answers the question:  “Are we the only civilization in the universe who believes there is a God?” 
  In a few years, it could be the end of human beings on Earth. The warning signs are all around us today, but few of us have realized how our lives will be changing as we come closer and closer to the END! Some believe that God will save us.  Others have given up hope. 
  In Shockwave, time waves as conceived by the author and previously dismissed as theoretical abstraction— are starting to prove themselves by hitting the planet with more and more frequency and force.  Most readers will be amazed at the near future technology that is invented in this book by this author that may actually be accomplished in the coming years.  It's a great time to be alive, but it may be even greater in the not-so-far-off future. 
  With each shockwave of Time, events are altered and realities changed.  One reality brings the hero closer to the life he always dreamed about and the other reality brings him further away.  
  The ending is the biggest shock wave of all time because it puts humanity at the center of the universe and you don't want to miss it.

This accessible tutorial taught you your way around a list with no previous programming expertise and loads of practical examples, step-by-step exercises, and sample code. This book covers the most significant modeling and prediction methods, as well as their applications.

This book introduces you to R, RStudio, and the tidyverse, a set of R tools that work together to make data research simple, fluent, and enjoyable. This book is meant to get you practicing data science as fast as possible, even if you have no prior programming expertise. You'll get a comprehensive grasp of the data science cycle and the fundamental tools you'll need to handle the details. 
  R is becoming more well-known by the day, as large institutions embrace it as a standard. Its popularity stems partly from the fact that it is a free tool replacing expensive statistical software products that may take an undue amount of time to master. Furthermore, R allows a user to do complicated statistical analyses with only a few keystrokes, making advanced studies accessible and clear to a broad audience. 
  Learn how to import data, construct and dismantle data objects, traverse R's environment system, develop your own functions, and utilize all of R's programming tools with this book. This book will not only teach you how to program but also how to use R for more than simply displaying and analyzing data. 
  The book is highly informative with lots of code, and also I added tons of pictures of how the code will look in r studio. Following the book, you will be able to start Rstudio and use the program smoothly.
