  '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 -"Once 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 top non-fiction autobiography is a humorous and personal account of the trio's adventures in podcasting. Their tales of recreation and webcasting mishaps will leave you in stitches. 
  For fans of Rachel Murphy (Just A Child), Joe Marler (Loose Head), Luke Upton (Hard Men of Rugby), Peter Crouch (How to Be an Ex-Footballer), and Jonny Wilkinson (Jonny).

  Flourishing Chinese Empires -...

  After centuries of division, China experienced an extraordinary renaissance through three dynasties that elevated the empire to unprecedented heights of cultural brilliance and global influence. "Flourishing Chinese Empires: Art, Trade, and Power" examines the Sui, Tang, and Song dynasties—a golden age when China stood as the world's most advanced civilization. 
  The short-lived Sui Dynasty (581-618 CE) accomplished the crucial task of reunification through ambitious projects including the Grand Canal, standardized administration, and reformed examination system. Though bankrupted by these massive undertakings and unsuccessful military campaigns, the Sui created the essential foundation for the glory that followed. 
  The Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE) transformed this unified state into a cosmopolitan empire of unrivaled splendor. China's borders expanded dramatically while its capital at Chang'an became the world's largest and most sophisticated city—a multicultural metropolis where Persian merchants, Japanese monks, and Korean scholars mingled in bustling markets and elegant gardens. This was the era of China's greatest poets, its artistic zenith in sculpture and painting, and unprecedented openness to foreign influences. 
  The Song Dynasty (960-1279 CE) compensated for military vulnerability with stunning economic and technological advancement. Urbanization accelerated as printing spread literacy, commerce flourished through paper money, maritime trade expanded, and scientific innovation thrived. Though constantly threatened by powerful northern neighbors, the Song fostered a refined cultural environment where landscape painting, philosophical inquiry, and scholarly pursuits reached remarkable sophistication.

  This is the true story of a woman who discovered a fascinating new way of living, refreshingly different to the rat race she had become trapped in. This new world was full of machoism, sexism and a complete lack of political correctness. Brizo entered a world where she was constantly surprised that being her filthy and inappropriate self was instantly accepted and even welcomed. She had glided into the world of sailing. The rough and rugged unkempt sailor types kept her dripping wet both in and out of the water. While Brizo was frustrated with the sexism that exists on deck, she was pleasantly surprised to discover that women are respected for taking charge down below. She found herself in a world where women were given credit for having many lovers and for being assertive in the bedroom. I suppose when the ratio of men is so much higher than that of women, a sailor is grateful he's secured a mermaid on his hook.

  In this guide, I would like to give you an insight into keeping, raising and training your horse as a partner. The focus will be on the factor of natural handling. Basic theoretical knowledge will be conveyed with corresponding practical suggestions. Meanwhile, topics such as communication between humans and horses and species-appropriate husbandry will be addressed. Newcomers to the field of riding will gain an extensive insight into the mindset of the four-legged friends and equestrian "know-how". Experienced riders who are already taking their horses to competitions will also find everything they need, from a change of scenery in training to dressage lessons.
  For those working with young horses, the subject of training is dealt with extensively.
  I do not prescribe the "right" or "wrong" way to ride. This guide is merely a recommendation on how to deal with horses in a species-appropriate manner. I want to convey how you can encourage horses without forcing them to do anything unnatural and how you can spend time with them alongside riding.
  The overriding aim of all topics should be the joy of riding and harmony with the horse as a partner.
