Mental
Mental is the brutally honest, tell-all autobiography of footballing wild-child, Jermaine Pennant. 'I've seen things no one else has seen in football.' Jermaine Pennant is one of English football's most controversial figures. Love him or loathe him, there is no ignoring the story he has to tell. Raised by a mother who faked her own death to abandon her black baby, and a father who kept guns and Class A drugs in the house meant that life's options for a young Jermaine were limited. Yet he saw professional football as his way out, and took his chance, emerging to be one of England's most gifted young footballers. A true prodigy, Jermaine climbed to the pinnacle of his sport to compete for the ...

The Pyjama Game
It is a sport of balletic beauty and extraordinary violence. Where else are you allowed to strangle an opponent unconscious? But while its aim is to inflict symbolic death, judo is a form of combat which also rigorously insists on the most formal courtesies. When Mark Law joined his local judo club he was able to observe at close quarters the sport practised at its highest level – finding himself face-to-face with world champions and Olympic medallists. His journey into judo took him to Osaka, Japan to see the World Championships and to Athens for the Olympics. He delved into the sport’s history, exploring everything from its origins in 17th century Samurai culture, to its legendary prop...

The Oxford Handbook of American Sports Law
The Oxford Handbook of American Sports Law is a timely and engaging compilation of commentaries by leading experts on the most significant issues in US sports law. The book blends analysis of historical and contemporary controversies with prescriptions for how courts and lawmakers can reconcile the competing interests of leagues, owners, and players. The Handbook also establishes a foundation for future research on sports law issues. As technology and social media alter the ways fans, athletes, and team officials interact, legal doctrine will be challenged to adapt, and the Handbook both forecasts these debates and outlines where the law may be headed.
Stillness and Speed
In Stillness and Speed, one of football's most enigmatic stars finally opens up about his life and career, revealing the things that motivate and inspire him. Viewed by many as one of the most influential figures in Premier League history, and scorer of the goal that Arsenal fans voted the best in the club's history, Dennis Bergkamp is a true giant of the game. As a youngster, Bergkamp learned from the Dutch master Johan Cruyff. By the time the pupil was ready to graduate from Ajax and move abroad, he was ready to spread the word, but in Italy he found few willing listeners. It was only when he moved to Arsenal and linked up with Arsene Wenger that he met someone else who shared his vision f...
Arsene Wenger
V této fascinující knize popisující trenérskou vládu Arsena Wengera v Arsenalu i metody, s jejichž pomocí drží klub stále na špici, autor vykresluje nejúplnější portrét jak tohoto Francouze a jeho způsobu práce, tak klubu, v němž Wenger působí už bezmála dvacet let. Když Wenger roku 1996 do Arsenalu přicházel, fanoušci klubu ho moc neznali a mnozí pochybovali, že by se pod jeho vedením mohly navrátit slavné časy George Grahama. On však záhy zcela změnil hru týmu, když zkombinoval pověstnou anglickou obrannou osu tvořenou Adamsem, Keownem, Dixonem, Winterburnem a Seamanem s nesmírně kreativními ofenzivními hráči ze zahraničí, jimiž byli zejm...
