Beschreibung

Ridge Edge Movements explores the art and science of safely navigating knife-edge ridges, drawing parallels between mountaineering and scouting. It reveals how balance, environmental awareness, and gear management are crucial for success. Readers will discover how mastering equilibrium under pressure and understanding wind dynamics can significantly reduce risk. The book uniquely blends practical climbing instruction with environmental science, emphasizing safety protocols and risk management, essential for both climbers and scouts.

 
The book challenges the idea that ridge travel is purely about physical strength, arguing it requires calculated precision. It begins by examining the physics of balance and the psychology of risk, then investigates weather impacts on movement. Subsequent sections detail rope techniques and safety systems.

 
Case studies of successful and unsuccessful ridge crossings provide actionable guidelines, making this a valuable resource for anyone looking to master ridge travel.

    Across the Board - How Games...

    Tabletop games are ordinary and extraordinary. Ordinary because they're everywhere: played in bars and cafés, churches and casinos, through sunless winters in polar research stations and in the sweltering summer heat of Tanzanian villages and streamed live over Twitch to millions of viewers. They fill the activity pages of children's magazines and the halls of senior centers. They appear as smartphone apps and in luxury editions and as game boards scratched into the dirt. 
     
     
     
    And they're extraordinary for precisely the same reason: they're everywhere, in every civilization, everywhere in the world across all recorded human history. 
     
     
     
    In Across the Board, tabletop game aficionado Tim Clare takes us through that history and across those civilizations. We learn how the same games emerge over and over and how they've evolved and spread, as well as about the contemporary culture of gaming: with rousing enthusiasm, Tim explores games as familiar to us as Monopoly or chess, as niche as Magic: The Gathering, and as unexpected as the Japanese poetry-matching card game karuta. We learn about games as recreation and as ritual, and above all, we see how they can be a way for us to come together—because of all the things that make us human, there's nothing quite so set up for connection as sharing a round of cards or the roll of a d20.

    "A searingly honest account … Nedum tells it like he played, with nothing left out." – Guy Mowbray, Match of the Day
    "A frank, thought-provoking and compelling insight into one of football's most articulate voices." – Rory Smith, New York Times chief soccer correspondent
    "Nedum Onuoha's autobiography is considerably more compelling than most of those by more decorated players." – When Saturday Comes
    ***
    Nedum Onuoha was not a typical footballer. Picked by the Manchester City Academy aged ten, he was determined to continue his education despite the lure of a career under the floodlights. Fiercely intelligent on and off the pitch, Onuoha developed into a talented defender and played his part in City's meteoric rise.
    In this characteristically forthright book, Onuoha reveals what goes on behind the scenes at top-tier clubs. Stuffed with insights into household names like Stuart Pearce, Sven-Göran Eriksson, Roberto Mancini and Harry Redknapp, this is football and its most famous figures as you've never seen them before.
    Kicking Back is also the story of one man's search for identity: as a footballer, as a black man in England and as an outsider in the US during the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests. What is it like to receive horrific racist abuse while doing your job? And how has football failed the black community? Onuoha provides a damning assessment of the sport's authorities as he dives deep into a life spent on the pitch.
