Beschreibung

Baseball Pitching explores the science behind throwing a baseball, focusing on how physics and biomechanics influence pitch performance and injury prevention. It explains how elements like aerodynamics and spin determine a ball's trajectory, allowing pitchers to create movement and velocity. For example, the Magnus effect explains how spin causes a baseball to curve, defying a straight path. The book also delves into the biomechanics of pitching, emphasizing efficient motion to maximize power while minimizing the risk of injury. 

 
The book uniquely combines scientific theory with practical application, bridging the gap between physics, biomechanics, and pitching technique. It begins by introducing fundamental physics principles, then moves into a detailed examination of pitching biomechanics, and finally dedicates chapters to specific pitches like fastballs, curveballs, and sliders. Each pitch is analyzed in terms of grip, arm action, release point, and resulting ball flight.

 
By understanding the science of pitching, players and coaches can optimize their techniques and training for improved performance and safety.

Your Heart is the Size of Your...

Martina Scholtens MD

Your Heart Is the Size of Your Fist draws readers into the complicated, poignant, and often-overlooked daily happenings of a busy urban medical clinic for refugees.
		 
An Iraqi journalist whose son has been been murdered develops post-traumatic stress disorder and mourns his loss of vocation. A Congolese woman refuses antiretroviral treatment for her new HIV diagnosis, and instead places her trust in Jesus. Two conservative Muslim Iraqi women are inadvertently exposed to pornography when a doctor uses Google Images to supplement a medical discussion. By turns humorous, distressing, and moving, these stories offer insight into the people seeking a new life while navigating poverty, language barriers, and neighbours who aren’t always friendly.
		 
This riveting collection of true stories from Dr. Martina Scholtens is filled with hope and humour, and together make up a deeply moving portrait of how one doctor attempts to provide quality care and advocacy for patients while remaining culturally sensitive, even as she wrestles with guilt, awareness of her own privilege, the faith she was raised with, and vicarious trauma after hearing countless stories of brutality and suffering.
		 
In the spirit of Louise Aronson and Atul Gawande, Scholtens’ writing is based on her personal experiences and explores the transformative moments in which a clinical doctor-patient relationship becomes a profound human-human connection.

The Spice Ports - Mapping the...

Nicholas Nugent

We may think of "globalism" as a recent development but its origins date back to the fifteenth century and beyond, when seafarers pioneered routes across the oceans with the objectives of exploration, trade, and profit. These voyages only became possible after certain technical innovations—improvements in ship design, compasses, and mapping—enabled navigation across unprecedented distances. The mariners' embarkation points were the vibrant ports of the West—Venice, Amsterdam, Lisbon—and their destinations the exotic ports of the East—Malacca, Goa, Bombay—where they tracked down the elusive spices, so much in demand by Western palates. 
 
 
 
This development of maritime communication brought benefits apart from culinary delights: the spread of ideas on art, literature, and science. But it was not necessarily beneficial for everyone concerned: colonial ambitions were often disastrous for local populations, who were frequently exploited as slave plantation labor. 
 
 
 
This wide-ranging account of a fascinating period of global history uses original maps and contemporary artists' views to tell the story of how each port developed individually while also encouraging us to consider contrasting points of view of the benefits and the damages of the maritime spice trade.
