Sinossi

Vertical Gear Hauls explores the critical mechanical engineering principles behind safely moving heavy loads in vertical environments. It caters to climbers, search and rescue teams, and arborists by detailing pulley systems like the Z-pulley, counterweight methods, and knot locking techniques. A key insight involves understanding how different pulley arrangements can optimize efficiency and safety. The book emphasizes that a misunderstanding of these systems can lead to severe consequences, highlighting the importance of mastering both mechanics and practical applications.

 
The book begins with fundamental physics concepts, assuming only a basic algebra background, and then progresses to practical applications such as gear selection and system setup. Real-world case studies from climbing, rescue, and arboriculture are used to illustrate these techniques.

 
The knowledge in Vertical Gear Hauls can be applied in diverse scenarios, from big wall climbing to tree limb removal, providing readers with the expertise to make informed decisions in vertical operations.

    Modern life is brain-unfriendly: We are flooded with information and excessive cognitive demands, when we are often already depleted from chronic stress, sleep deprivation, and health issues. Many of us experience frequent 'glitches' or memory lapses, despite tests showing there is nothing wrong with our brains. This book provides concrete strategies, derived from neuropsychological science and clinical practice, to help people improve how they function in daily life. 
    Menchola draws on her experience as a clinical neuropsychologist who has worked with a widely diverse group of patients, to translate the findings from highly controlled research into concrete strategies that people can implement in their messy worlds to make their days more brain-friendly. The book also provides advice on how to address those factors that drain our brain resources, and gives guidance on when and how to seek a neuropsychological evaluation. 
    It is valuable listening for anyone experiencing frustrating cognitive problems that are not due to brain disease. It is also essential for neuropsychologists, psychologists and physicians in primary care, psychiatry, and neurology, who need a resource to offer to patients to help their healthy brains function better.

    'I want absolutely nothing to do with this book.' – Owen Farrell 
    THREE RUGBY MEGASTARS. 
    ONE EPIC BOOK. 
    Welcome to the wild world of The Good, The Bad & The Rugby.  
    They say what goes on tour stays on tour…but not this time. 
    Dive headfirst into the banter, bruises and brilliance of rugby with the team behind The Good, The Bad & The Rugby podcast. Packed with shenanigans, laugh-out-loud stories and a little chaos, this book offered a behind-the-scenes pass to the lives, laughs and legendary matches of three rugby megastars – on and off the pitch. 
    'There's rugby, laughter and, of course, more of me' – JAMES HASKELL 
    'The lawyers are once again on standby' – ALEX PAYNE 
    'I have no idea how this book deal was signed, but in the spirit of GBR -"One in, all in"' – MIKE TINDALL 
    Among the key questions answered are:What happened when Mike took their shambles of a podcast inside the walls of Windsor Castle to meet the Prince and Princess of Wales and the Princess Royal?How did James end up nearly killing himself on the way to the DJ set, find himself forced to save Payno from Tins and get confronted by irate fan?Why did Alex's broadcasting career sink to such depressing depths? And will it ever recover? (Spoiler alert – it won't.) 
    In this epically no-holds-barred book, all three of them go behind the scenes of the hugely successful podcast, pulling back the curtain to reveal their most outrageous antics on tour – the ups, the downs and the sideways – and leaving no story untold. 
    All is unleashed. 
    This autobiography is a non-fiction account of the world of rugby, filled with humour and the kind of insider information that only comes from being on the inside. It's a memoir that takes readers on a journey through the sport, the podcasting world, and the lives of three of its biggest stars. 
    For fans of Rachel Murphy (Loose Head), Christopher Andersen (Jackie After Jack), Robert Jobson (Guarding Diana), Luke Upton (Hard Men of Rugby), and Peter Crouch (How to Be an Ex-Footballer).
