Nautilus
Arthur Jones created and ran the Nautilus exercise equipment company. This is a biography of when Arthur owned Nautilus, as written and told by me, William Edgar Jones; the youngest son of Arthur Jones. Read about the beginning of the company, and learn some of the inside information that the public never knew. This book covers the early years of Nautilus, until Arthur sold it to Travis Ward.As an inventor there were few people that ever eclipsed Arthur. As a business man, there were many that did. For years Nautilus ran on its own, unmanaged and uncontrolled, while Arthur pursued his hobbies and other fields of interest.Arthur spent money faster than a raging river; and the company somehow ...
The Nautilus Bulletins
Arthur Jones' "Nautilus Bulletins" may be the most important books ever written on exercise, both for the ideas themselves and their influence on others who would advance and refine them over the following decades. My goal in providing this new edition of the Nautilus Bulletins is to organise and layout the material for a modern audience. No changes have been made to Arthur's words; except for corrections in terms of typography, formatting and layout. Each RADLEY CLASSIC is a meticulously restored, luxurious and faithful reproduction of a classic book; produced with elegant text layout, clarity of presentation, and stylistic features that make reading a true pleasure. Special attention is given to legible fonts and adequate letter sizing, correct line length for readability, generous margins and triple lead (lavish line separation); plus we do not allow any mistakes/changes to creep into the original author's words.

Solid Souls
Your small, everyday choices have eternal effect. Philosophers from Plato to Pixar all assume we have a soul. But what does that actually mean, and why does it matter? In this bold new work, pastor Arthur Jones weaves together Scripture, history, theology, and pop culture to reclaim the ancient concept of a soul. A soul is not afterlife vapor but something very real and very specific: the resurrection of the body. Jesus' message is that the kingdom of heaven is here now. Some think the state of our soul only comes down to one big spiritual decision in life. However, while we depend on the grace of God, our soul is shaped by life's little everyday decisions, not just a few big ones. These sma...
Abstract Algebra and Famous Impossibilities
The famous problems of squaring the circle, doubling the cube and trisecting an angle captured the imagination of both professional and amateur mathematicians for over two thousand years. Despite the enormous effort and ingenious attempts by these men and women, the problems would not yield to purely geometrical methods. It was only the development. of abstract algebra in the nineteenth century which enabled mathematicians to arrive at the surprising conclusion that these constructions are not possible. In this book we develop enough abstract algebra to prove that these constructions are impossible. Our approach introduces all the relevant concepts about fields in a way which is more concret...
Pierre Toussaint
This is the remarkable true story of Pierre Toussaint (c.1781-1853), a slave who gained his freedom and became a well-known high-society hairstylist in New York City. A devout Catholic, Toussaint worked tirelessly on behalf of the poor and oppressed. At the time of his death, he was hailed as New York's leading black citizen. Now, he is now a candidate for sainthood.Toussaint was born on the island of Haiti, on a plantation owned by the Bérards, a prosperous French family, who raised him as a Catholic. When the Bérards fled to New York in 1797 during a slave uprising, they took Toussaint with them as a servant. New York held its own dangers: anti-Catholic sentiment was high and African-Ame...

If You Like Exercise ... Chances Are You’Re Doing It Wrong
In If You Like Exercise... Chances Are You’re Doing It Wrong, author Gary Bannister tells us that “the power-to-be have all but destroyed the value of muscle isolation, discredited the use of machines in general, ignored everything related to the work of Arthur Jones and replaced it with a ten-cent solution.” He claims that until the field of exercise defines what is true and what is not, it will never have the impact that it could. Muscle strength, the only factor that can produce human movement and the only factor that performs work, is disappearing from today’s training regimens. This study and guide analyzes current concepts and training systems-such as Pilates, “functional” ...
In Arthur's Shadow
In Arthur's Shadow is a tribute to Nautilus inventor, Arthur Jones - an outline of his contributions to exercise and rehabilitative medicine. From the innovative equipment and strength-training principles he introduced as founder of Nautilus Sports Medical Industries to the physiological discoveries of specific muscle testing as chairman of MedX Corporation, the book delves into the theory behind the development of Nautilus machines, features Jones' greatest legacy - the MedX Lumbar Extension machine - and reveals the logic and brilliance behind his search for the truth. Not a 'how to' book, the format is a series of anecdotes - daily musings - that unveils the character and integrity of one of the few, if not the only genius in the field of exercise. At the same time, it highlights the author's experience with those viewpoints. Arthur Jones was eccentric, opinionated and "outraged" by the ignorance, myth and fraud that engulfed his fields of choice. A master communicator, he hit audiences like a sledgehammer. Few escaped unscathed.
