God Knows
What began as a late night discussion between a Christian and a Humanist, evolved to become an attempt to reconcile their differing beliefs. When that didn't work the writers took the discussion into deeper waters. It was clear that the friends would never agree... but could they offer up an explanation of what they did believe, and would that withstand cross-examination from the other? 'God Knows' offers both points of view in a single collaboration. This book mirrors other conversations that bridge the gap between believer and free thinker: but the humor, irreverence, confrontation and honesty allows the conversation to be instructive to both sides alike. In the end, the writers found that their common bond of humanity allowed for a respectful and thoughtful disagreement; that they shared much more in common than not.
Wimbledon
A lavish coffee table book from the team behind the award-winning Centre Court (VSP, 2009), Wimbledon: Visions of the Championships features sensational behind-the-scenes pictures of Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Andy Murray, the Williams sisters, Maria Sharapova and many more current tennis stars. The book captures the magical atmosphere of those two weeks in June - the quintessential Englishness of it all with the players in white, the pristine lawns, Pimms and strawberries and cream, ballboys, ballgirls and (of course) plenty of rain!
Hewitt on Joint Ventures
This practical text contains precedents and commentary on warranties and indemnities on share sales. It provides guidance for all parties - purchasers and vendors - who have to deal with a sale and purchase agreement ("sale agreement") for either a company or business. Written for commercial lawyers, it is the only title to deal exclusively with this area. A CD-rom of precedents is included.
Immortals of British Sport
Hewitt sets out to discover the story of Britain's sporting legacy through the sculptures and distinctive memorials inspired by these heroes. The result of his travels is this book that provides a fascinating and vivid view of the history and development of British sport. Divided into eras of our sporting history, the book features a wide array of immortals accompanied by informative text about each subject and by specially commissioned, striking photographs of some truly fascinating sculptures.

Why Running Matters
You might run for fitness. You might run for speed. But ultimately, running is about much more than the physical act itself. It is about the challenges we face in life, and how we measure up to them. It is about companionship, endurance, ambition, hope, conviction, determination, self-respect and inspiration. It is about how we choose to live our lives, and what it means to share our values with other people. In this year-long memoir, which might be described as a historian’s take on Haruki Murakami’s What I Talk About When I Talk About Running, the celebrated historian Ian Mortimer considers the meaning of running as he approaches his fiftieth birthday. From injuries and frustrated ambitions to exhilaration and empathy, it is a personal and yet universal account of what running means to people, and how it helps everyone focus on what really matters.
Centre Court
"Updated edition of this ... book which celebrates one of sport's most historic and iconic venues - from the epic matches played on Centre Court and the legends who have graced its hallowed grass to the uniquely English atmosphere of ball boys, boaters and Robinson's barley water. Packed with stunning and evocative images taken from the All England Club's own archives and items of memorabilia plucked from the Wimbledon Museum this lavish book also includes quotes and stories from some of tennis's greatest names. This new edition includes the 2012 Olympic tournament held at the All England Club and Andy Murray's momentous triumph in 2013"--Publisher website.
Studies of Photoinduced Molecular Dynamics Using a Fast Imaging Sensor
The work presented in this thesis involves a number of sophisticated experiments highlighting novel applications of the Pixel Imaging Mass Spectrometry (PImMS) camera in the field of photoinduced molecular dynamics. This approach represents the union of a new enabling technology (a multiple memory register, CMOS-based pixel detector) with several modern chemical physics approaches and represents a significant leap forward in capabilities. Applications demonstrated include three-dimensional imaging of photofragment Newton spheres, simultaneous electron-ion detection using a single sensor, and ion-ion velocity correlation measurements that open the door to novel covariance imaging experiments. When combined with Coulomb explosion imaging, such an approach is demonstrated to allow the measurement of molecular structure and motion on a femtosecond timescale. This is illustrated through the controlled photoexcitation of torsional motion in biphenyl molecules and the subsequent real-time measurement of the torsional angle.
