Sinossi

Fitness Equipment Cleaning reveals the critical connection between gym hygiene and equipment longevity, blending health safety with mechanical engineering insights. The book’s eye-opening premise—that treadmill handles host 74 times more bacteria than public faucets—sets the stage for its mission: preventing pathogen transmission while preserving expensive gym machinery. Unlike generic cleaning guides, it merges microbial biology with material science, showing how improper disinfectants can sanitize surfaces yet corrode touchscreens or degrade rubber grips over time. This interdisciplinary approach helps readers tackle dual threats—pathogens like staphylococcus and mechanical wear from friction or humidity—through protocols that protect both users and equipment.

Structured into three sections, the book progresses from health risks to mechanical maintenance before uniting these themes. It explains how antimicrobial coatings demand pH-balanced cleaners, while ergonomic design flaws strain both users and machinery. A standout case study details a gym that cut repair costs by 40% using the book’s daily lubrication and cleaning regimen. Practical tools like checklists and diagrams simplify complex concepts, such as choosing enzymatic cleaners over abrasive scrubs to preserve upholstery. By framing equipment care as preventive medicine, the book offers a roadmap for gym operators and home users alike to build safer, more durable fitness spaces—proving that smart maintenance is as vital as the workout itself.

Psychogeography

Merlin Coverley

Psychogeography. In recent years this term has been used to illustrate a bewildering array of ideas from ley lines and the occult, to urban walking and political radicalism. But where does it come from and what exactly does it mean? 
 
This book examines the origins of psychogeography in the Paris of the 1950s, exploring the theoretical background and its political application in the work of Guy Debord and the Situationists. Psychogeography continues to find retrospective validation in much earlier traditions, from the visionary writing of William Blake and Thomas De Quincey to the rise of the flâneur and the avant-garde experimentatin of the Surrealists. These precursors to psychogeography are discussed here alongside their modern counterparts, for today these ideas hold greater currency than ever through the popularity of writers and filmmakers such as Iain Sinclair, Will Self and Patrick Keiller. 
 
From the urban wanderer to the armchair traveller, psychogeography provides us with new ways of experiencing our environment, transforming the familiar streets of our everyday experience into something new and unexpected. Merlin Coverley conducts the reader through this process, providing an explanation of the terms involved and an analysis of the key figures and their works. 
 
'This little book does exactly what an introduction should; it examines, explains, and whets the appetite' TELEGRAPH  
 
'An excellent overview of a tradition that can be tricky to pin down and a great portal for loads of further reading' HUGH MARWOOD 
 
'This succinct book is a definite first port of call for anyone interested in this most esoteric of theories. A portmanteau of information, a pin-pointing of Psychogeography's literary impact and standing, and a stimulating read' 3:AM MAGAZINE
