The MMA Encyclopedia
' "Did you see the big fight this weekend'" The question used to be about boxing matches, when the giants of the fight world were Mike Tyson and Roy Jones. Now fans are leaving the sweet science in droves for the combat sport of the future: mixed martial arts (MMA). MMA has drawn millions on cable and network television, as well as out-performed professional wrestling and boxing on pay-per-view. Fans are attracted to the sport, but unlike boxing (where strategy and technique are limited to using both your left and right hands), an MMA fight can be surprisingly complicated. The MMA Encyclopedia puts the fighters, the facts, and the fundamentals of the world's fastest growing sport at your fingertips as the definitive reference guide to mixed martial arts. The encyclopedia will break the MMA language barrier for those who don't know a wristlock from a wristwatch, while at the same time offering perspective and analysis that will entertain the hardcore fan who already has the basics down pat. With three appendices that detail the results of every MMA'fight in history, this the ultimate reference book for the ultimate sport.

Falando De Amor
Ler o poeta e artista plástico Thiago Alves é como abrir uma janela para um mundo de fé, de amor e de esperança, onde os sonhos de vitória ainda são possíveis, como possíveis são as suas realizações. A sua poesia é enlevo para a alma, é mergulho no oceano das emoções, é alumbramento amoroso e também é protesto social num país que carece cada vez mais de sensibilidade poética, da coragem de quem sabe dar primazia ao amor. Pois Thiago é o que podemos chamar de habilidoso poeta de múltiplos estilos. Com sua verve apurada, sempre a escrever com desenvoltura e graça, tanto na forma clássica (a exemplo do soneto) quanto na melhor forma da literatura de cordel, entretanto, sem jamais violar sua notável qualidade de poeta condoreiro. É por isto que é sempre prazeroso ler seus poemas, eivados na maviosa arte do fazer poético. Antonio Costta
