  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  In the heart of the twentieth century, when America wrestled with racial injustice and foreign wars, a legend was born who would shake the world—not merely with his fists, but with his unwavering conscience. 
  This is the extraordinary journey of Muhammad Ali. 
  From Cassius Clay, a young boy in Kentucky whose stolen bicycle became the catalyst for greatness, to Muhammad Ali, the three-time heavyweight champion who stood against the most powerful government on earth. This audiobook chronicles the rise of a man who transformed boxing from simple sport into a theater of social revolution. 
  Witness the making of "The Greatest"—his Olympic triumph, the shocking upset of Sonny Liston, his conversion to Islam, and his principled stand against the Vietnam War that cost him the prime years of his career. Experience the legendary "Rumble in the Jungle" against George Foreman, where Ali crafted the immortal "rope-a-dope" strategy that stunned the world. 
  But this is more than a sports biography. It's the story of a poet-warrior who declared "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee" and lived those words both in the ring and in life. A man who proved that true courage isn't measured by victories, but by standing firm on principle when everything is at stake. 
  Muhammad Ali didn't just fight opponents—he fought injustice, racism, and war itself. 
  Through intimate details never before told, discover how a young man afraid of flying became the most fearless voice of his generation. How he transformed pain into purpose, anger into justice, and became a symbol of human dignity that transcends sport, race, and time. 
  This is the definitive story of Muhammad Ali... The Greatest forever.

  Chipped - Writing from a...

  Chipping a board is a natural part of skateboarding. Novice or pro, you'll see folks riding chipped boards as symbols of their stubborn dedication toward a deck, a toy, and aging bodies that will also reach their inevitable end. 
   
   
   
  In Chipped, José Vadi personalizes and expands upon this symbol. Written after finishing his debut collection Inter State, Vadi used these essays to explore his own empathy in aging, and to elaborate on the impact skateboarding has had on culture, power, and art. From tracing a critical mass skater takeover of San Francisco's streets, to an analysis of visceral '90s skate videos and soundtracks, to the solace found skating a parking lot during a global pandemic, Vadi expands our understanding of the ways skateboarding can alter one's life. 
   
   
   
  Vadi acts as a "ethnographer on a skateboard," writing, living, and animating an object, likening the board and skate ephemera to the fear of being discarded, wanting to be seen as useful, functional, living. These essays analyze the legacy of seminal texts like Thrasher magazine, influential programming giants like MTV, and skateboard artists. Chipped is an intimate, genre-pushing meditation on skateboarding and the reasons we continue to get up after every fall life throws our way.

  Sisterhood in Sports: How Female Athletes Collaborate and Compete tells the stories of all kinds of female athletes in a variety of sports. Their natural tendency to use talking as a primary form of communication is essential to their experiences and successes in sports. Women and girls tend to have BFFs, collaborate during periods of stress, express empathy for one another, worry about themselves and others, and desire to have fun in sports, which makes their experiences of sports and competition different from their male counterparts. Female strengths are grounded in both mind and body, and they take these strengths onto the court, field, and track.   There are now dozens of studies showing how the female brain and hormones operate quite differently than those of men. This book reveals the ways in which these differences confirm that intense emotions about relationships are part of the sporting life for female competitors. Joan Steidinger uses real stories to show that women and girls compete at very high

  Fuel for Thought - A practical...

  Food should be really simple. It is the means by which we nourish our bodies, providing them with the nutrients and fuel we need in order to live, exercise and socialise. Yet, in recent years, food and nutrition have become more complicated, confusing and polarising than ever before.
  Fuel for Thought by leading sports dietitian Renee McGregor is a practical and trustworthy guide to sports nutrition, whether you're a world-class or real-world athlete, or just someone who wants to improve their relationship with food. Cutting through the jargon and misinformation, Renee draws on over twenty years' experience of working with sportspeople from a range of disciplines and backgrounds to provide straightforward, accessible advice about how you can fuel your adventures.
  The follow-up to More Fuel You, in this book Renee looks at sports nutrition through the lens of her own sporting passion – running. She urges caution over the explosion of social media nutrition and fitness experts, apps and programmes that all claim to offer bespoke dietary advice. Instead, she offers practical information based on her own personal and professional experiences, including an A–Z of foods and a section dedicated to her own tried-and-tested, budget-friendly recipe ideas which use simple, everyday ingredients. There is also guidance on how to recognise and get help with dysfunctional behaviours, from REDs to exercise dependency, and how to be informed about your hormonal health when you go in search of appropriate support.
