Own Goal!
Own Goal! will send a blast through British Football which will strip the game bare and expose the corruption, egotism and greed which is destroying our national game at every level. Own Goal! will be a rallying call and a manifesto to the fans to save the game they love. Written by Simon Freeman, former deputy editor of The Sunday Times Insight team, British Press Awards, 1994. Feature Writer of the Year and rabid football fan, this book will be part personal, based on nearly half a century of watching the game at all levels, from Brighton and Hove Albion Reserves versus Doncaster Reserves on a November night to World Cup Finals in Spain and Italy. It will describe how the sport has evolved - from being grimy and bankrupt to super-rich and ultra-fashionable. It will ask the question: 'what is the state of football today?' It will argue that the fans are being conned: the sport has formed an immoral alliance with the media, especially television, and big business and that sooner or later the fans will realise that the game they love is being stolen from them. The book will be a cocktail of personal reminiscences and polemic, supported by interviews with fans, managers, players, dir

Preface by Simon Kelner.
Baghdad FC
With the fall of Iraq in 2003, the despotic reign of Uday Hussein, Saddams son and sports minister, came to an end. For 19 years he had arrested, tortured, and murdered footballers, athletes, officials, and journalists. Yet against these odds, the Iraqi national team has long ranked in the worlds top 40. Key to Iraqs footballing success is the story of Ammo Baba, the Arab worlds Pele or Stanley Matthews, whose playing and coaching career spans 50 years. Ammo will be one of the many characters that Simon Freeman befriends and follows as he uncovers a half-century of triumph and tragedy, together with officials, players, and sports journalists involved with the game they loved under the yoke of totalitarianism. He also assesses the team at the 2004 Olympics and in the run-up to the Asian and World Cups. What is the destiny of Iraqs game in a post-Saddam world, where the US military park its tanks on the national stadium?

How to be a Good Enough GP
The upheavals of the NHS reforms have caused a great deal of stress and uncertainty in primary care, and professional development and support for general practitioners needs to take account of this. This book offers a group supervision model which can be used to develop the core competencies needed for GPs to make the new primary care organisations work. The book analyses how primary care professionals have dealt with the various reforms of the past decade, and picks apart the paralysing culture of politeness, conflict avoidance and rivalry for power, to reveal how at the core of reform is the struggle for each GP to construct a new professional identity which integrates medicine, management...

In a remote construction campsite on the edge of Australias Great Sand Desert, a skeleton crew of workers awaits their turn to fly home for their rostered week off at home.
