Sinopsis

Unrealistic Stage Combat explores the captivating world of fight choreography by dissecting the physics behind stage and screen battles. It reveals how performing arts often deviate from real-world physics and martial arts, highlighting the misrepresentation of momentum and force, as well as the exaggeration of recovery times. By examining these discrepancies, the book offers insights into how stage combat prioritizes dramatic storytelling and visual impact over physical accuracy. For example, stage combat often depicts unrealistically long falls or impossible striking speeds for dramatic effect.

 
The book's unique value lies in its systematic approach, using scientific analysis to deconstruct stage combat techniques. Progressing from fundamental physics concepts to clear examples of deviations in fight scenes, it culminates in an examination of the impact on audience perception of violence. This exploration helps performers improve technique and safety, while providing audiences with a more critical appreciation of the art form. Motion capture data and biomechanical analysis support the arguments, making it a valuable resource for those in theatre, film, martial arts, and anyone curious about the science behind the performing arts.

    A COSMIC CONUNDRUM—This astonishing book follows our ascendancy from just another hominin on the open African savannah to the alpha hegemon on Earth today endangering its entire future. Along the way, humans methodically outwitted their competition with phenomenal efficiency and indifference, to emerge in the modern 21st century as the linchpin of a major mass extinction of countless other lifeforms cohabiting their planet with them. The shredding of our fragile ecosphere by massive proliferation and monopolistic overconsumption of Earth’s precious resources by a single invasive species, along with the inexorable combustion of deadly fossil fuels to acquire the energy needed to sustain their profligate and lavish lifestyle, is threatening to drive H. sapiens itself into extinction within the next 300 years. This is the true story of that improbable adventure!

  • The Great American Transit Disaster - A Century of Austerity Auto-Centric Planning and White Flight - cover

    The Great American Transit...

    A potent re-examination of America’s history of public disinvestment in mass transit. 
      
    Many a scholar and policy analyst has lamented American dependence on cars and the corresponding lack of federal investment in public transportation throughout the latter decades of the twentieth century. But as Nicholas Dagen Bloom shows in The Great American Transit Disaster, our transit networks are so bad for a very simple reason: we wanted it this way. 
      
    Focusing on Baltimore, Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, Boston, and San Francisco, Bloom provides overwhelming evidence that transit disinvestment was a choice rather than destiny. He pinpoints three major factors that led to the decline of public transit in the United States: municipal austerity policies that denied most transit agencies the funding to sustain high-quality service; the encouragement of auto-centric planning; and white flight from dense city centers to far-flung suburbs. As Bloom makes clear, these local public policy decisions were not the product of a nefarious auto industry or any other grand conspiracy—all were widely supported by voters, who effectively shut out options for transit-friendly futures. With this book, Bloom seeks not only to dispel our accepted transit myths but hopefully to lay new tracks for today’s conversations about public transportation funding.
