Sinopse

Speed Skating explores the captivating blend of physics and technique that allows athletes to achieve incredible speeds on ice. By delving into friction, biomechanics, and training methodologies, the book reveals how skaters manipulate their bodies to minimize resistance and maximize power. A key insight is understanding how ice properties affect skating, as even slight changes in temperature can impact an athlete's performance. 

 
The book progresses logically, first laying a foundation in physics by explaining friction and aerodynamics. It then analyzes the biomechanics of the skating stride, including force production and energy transfer. Finally, it examines advanced training strategies to enhance athletic performance. This approach connects scientific principles with real-world applications, providing skaters and coaches with actionable insights to optimize training and improve technique.

    A comprehensive history charting the rise, fall, and rise again of women's soccer 
     
     
     
    Women's soccer is a game that has often been relegated to the margins in a world fixated on gender differences above passion and talent. It is a game that could attract 50,000 fans to a stadium in the 1920s, was later banned by England's Football Association grounds for being "unsuitable for females," and has emerged as a global force in the modern era with the US Women's National Team leading the charge. 
     
     
     
    A Woman's Game traces this arc of changing attitudes, increasing professionalism, and international growth. Veteran journalist Suzanne Wrack has crafted a thoroughly reported history which pushes back at centuries of boundaries while celebrating the many wonders that women's soccer has to offer. 
     
     
     
    With the enormous success of the World Cup, eighty-two million US viewers for the USWNT against Netherlands in the 2019 World Cup Final, enlightened and outspoken players like Megan Rapinoe helping raise the profile of the game across the world, and a fully professional top-tier league going from strength to strength in both the US and the UK, the time cannot be better for this in-depth look at the beautiful game.
