Book excerpt: A darkly funny sports memoir about a mid-life crisis, exercise addiction, tennis, and how to grow up when you really, really don't want to At forty-one, Scarlett Thomas was a successful novelist and a senior academic. She’d quit smoking, gotten healthier, settled down in a lovely house with a wonderful partner. She’d had all the therapy. Then her beloved dog died. Her parents started to get sick right around the time she realized she was never going to be a mother herself. For the first time in her life, maintaining her ideal weight had become nearly impossible. She was supposed to grow up, but she didn’t know how. So instead she decided to regress, to go back to the thing she’d loved best as a child but had inexplicably abandoned: tennis. Thomas knows she’s not the only person to have wondered whether throwing enough money and time and passion at something can make your dream come true. 41–Love is heartbreaking but frequently funny as Thomas finds she’ll do anything to win—almost anything.

Book excerpt: This book brings together the work of eleven leading international scholars to map the contribution of teaching Sisters, who provided schooling to hundreds of thousands of children, globally, from 1800 to 1950. The volume represents research that draws on several theoretical approaches and methodologies. It engages with feminist discourses, social history, oral history, visual culture, post-colonial studies and the concept of transnationalism, to provide new insights into the work of Sisters in education. Making a unique contribution to the field, chapters offer an interrogation of historical sources as well as fresh interpretations of findings, challenging assumptions. Compelling narratives from the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Africa, Australia, South East Asia, France, the UK, Italy and Ireland contribute to what is a most important exploration of the contribution of the women religious by mapping and contextualizing their work. Education, Identity and Women Religious, 1800–1950: Convents, classrooms and colleges will appeal to academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of social history, women’s history, the history of education, Catholic education, gender studies and international education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fifth book and final instalment in Bella Christian’s compelling new series, This is Where it Ends… On the surface, fourteen-year-old Veronica Blackwood has it all. She’s the only child of Wheeler’s glamor couple. Her mother comes from old money. Her father is a hotshot lawyer. He’s also the mayor of Wheeler. Smart, slim and beautiful, Veronica is the most popular girl at Wheeler High. All the other girls wish they could be her. The boys look at her with longing. She loves every second of the attention. In fact, she craves it. Somehow it helps to replace the lack of attention she receives at home… And so what if she amuses herself at the expense of others? The occasional mean comment to a loser doesn’t make her a bully. Jessie Angel is weak. She ought to toughen up. It’s her own fault she’s become a frequent target. Then Jessie Angel kills herself and Veronica is put into a spin. Not because she’s shocked by what Jessie has done, or even mourns the girl’s demise. No, it’s because all of a sudden the kids at Wheeler High are looking at her differently…many with accusation in their eyes. It’s not her fault Jessie Angel shot herself in the head! It’s not fair to be blamed for the stupid girl’s death. Veronica might have teased and tormented Jessie every now and then, but that was just a bit of fun. How was she to know Jessie Angel had taken it all so seriously? Honestly, the kids at Wheeler High need to wake up to themselves and lay the blame for Jessie’s death where it really lies… At Jessie Angel’s feet. As far as Veronica’s concerned, if Jessie was that weak, good riddance. Surely it’s only a matter of time before the rest of Wheeler High see that? Isn’t it...?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book highlights ‘new perspectives’ on volunteerism in sport, covering frameworks, methods, context and variables on several levels from community sport clubs to international events. In analysing the processes of control within voluntary sport clubs, a new theoretical framework – critical realism (CR) – challenges how we think about theory and how scientific inquiry should proceed. Further themes raised are: Should sports clubs be viewed as a crossing between a traditional volunteer culture dominated by collective solidarity, and a modern volunteer culture focused on the individual benefits? Are former athletes a new group of possible volunteers? Can personal narratives of experiences of being a volunteer in a big international event provide us with new insight that has not previously been considered? Identity is suggested as a motive for understanding volunteers at sporting events. Two new theoretical models are presented, one on the development of volunteer commitment and the other on a framework that incorporates both individual- and institutional-level variables. All chapters have recommendations for future research. The testing of these theories and influencing factors will provide new directions in the research of sport volunteerism. This book was originally published as a special issue of European Sport Management Quarterly.
