Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Boxing. The Sport of Kings. And for every king, there are kingmakers and princes, determined heirs and ruthless pretenders to the throne. Boxers may enter the ring alone, but behind them are their families, many of whom have spent a career in the fight game themselves. And all are caught up in this most beautiful but brutal of sports. Beautiful Brutality is the first book to examine the world of boxing from the perspective of family. With unprecedented access to the likes of the Calzaghes, Mayweathers, Hattons and Khans, Sky Sports boxing expert Adam Smith lays bare the raw emotion at the heart of the sport. How does it feel when your son is taking a pummelling? Can a father make rational judgements from the corner of the ring, in the frenzied atmosphere of a fight? And how much strength does a boxer take from his family, or the family figures that so many trainers and promoters become? Passionate, hard-hitting and with astonishing revelations about the world of boxing, Beautiful Brutality is written from the heart, by an author with a unique knowledge and experience of the fight game.

Book excerpt: Boxing might not have survived the 1930s if not for Max Baer. A contender for every heavyweight championship 1932-1941, California's "Glamour Boy" brought back the "million-dollar gate" not seen since the 1920s. His radio voice sold millions of Gillette razor blades; his leading-man appeal made him a heartthrob in The Prizefighter and the Lady (1933). The film was banned in Nazi Germany--Baer had worn a Star of David on his trunks when he TKOed German former champ Max Schmeling. Baer defeated 275-pound Primo Carnera in 1934 for the championship, losing it to Jim Braddock the next year. Contrary to Cinderella Man, (2005), Baer--favored 10 to 1--was not a villain and the fight was more controversial than the film suggested. His battle with Joe Louis three months later drew the highest gate of the decade. This first comprehensive biography covers Baer's complete ring record, his early life, his career on radio, film, stage and television, and his World War II army service.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No other comprehensive small animal veterinary medicine book exists with a comparable amount of relevant illustrated material. This new third edition continues and expands on the revolutionary approach of the previous two editions, now including more than 1,850 highly valuable clinical colour photographs, diagrams, and tables. The book is now divided into five color-coded sections – General Approach, Disease of Specific Organ Systems, Multisystemic Disorders, Elements of Therapy and Case Studies. As with the first and second editions of this book the overriding principle of succinct, yet comprehensive text presented in a clear format with an abundance of good quality images remains. Section I: General Approach is completely new and covers medical history and client communication, and common clinical problems. Section II: Specific Organ Systems is organized by body system with chapters structured in a systematic manner that include the definition for each disorder, its causes, clinical features, differential diagnoses, diagnostic methodology, treatment and prognosis, providing readers with easy access to important clinical information. New to this section are chapters covering diseases of the oral cavity and teeth, approach to thoracic radiographs, approach to abdominal radiographs, and disorders of hemostasis. Section III: Multisystemic Disorders covers revised and updated chapters including clinical toxicology, infectious diseases, and immunologic disorders. Section IV: Elements of Therapy covers therapies such as fluid therapy, pain management, nutrition of the critically ill dog and cat and a new chapter on management of the obese dog or cat. Section V: Case Studies includes over 25 case studies that enable the reader to relate the knowledge gained in the book to clinical cases seen in practice. Written by board-certified experts with several case contributions by clinicians in advanced phases of resident training, topics were carefully selected to make this a valuable resource to the general practitioner and also to small animal interns and veterinary students.

Book excerpt: The Boxer’s Heart is a brilliantly candid memoir and the first-ever guide to the world of women’s boxing. Written by Food and Wine editor Kate Sekules, it tells the story of how an average athlete converted her visceral dislike of violence into a short but eventful career as a professional boxer makes irresistible reading for both fans and foes of what used to be “The Manly Art.” Sekules’s account unfolds with the pace and depth of a great novel, crammed with larger-than-life characters and piercing observations. Any woman who has grappled with anger and trust, been nagged by insecurity at the gym, or wondered what it feels like to throw a punch will identify with this witty and honest account of the “sweet science of bruising.” “It’s a knockout, folks..... The Boxer’s Heart is a winner, on all cards.”—Newsweek “ Sekules ... is appealingly self-aware ... [and] gives us a sense of women’s boxing as a thriving movement.”—New York Times Book Review “Floats like a butterfly, stings like a bee.”—Kirkus Reviews

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1900, China chose to take on imperialism by fighting a war with the world on the parched north China plain. This multi-disciplinary volume explores the causes behind what is now known as the Boxer war, examining its particular cruelties and its impact on China, foreign imperialism in China, and on the foreign imagination. The Boxers have often been represented as a force from China's past, resisting an enforced modernity. Here, expert contributors argue that this rebellion was instead a wholly modern resistance to globalizing power, representing new trends in modern China and in international relations. This volume will appeal to readers interested in modern Chinese, East Asian, and European history as well as the history of imperialism, colonialism, warfare, missionary work, and Christianity.

Each rule is paired with a famous boxer’s quote, and Glassman recommends “being with the rule,” reflecting on if you currently possess the skill or trait, and if not, how you will begin to incorporate it in your life and embody it. Life According to the Rules of Boxing is a catalyst to open your eyes to the choices champions make while inspiring you to do the same. This is a curriculum for living a powerful and successful life you love. “Inspired by her passion for boxing and love of service, Jolie Glassman has written a truly inspirational book, a blueprint for anyone that is ready to fight for a better life.

Book excerpt: Boxers - Dog Books for Kids Table of Contents Introduction Chapter 1 Early History Chapter 2 Fascinating Features & Care Chapter 3 Amazing Boxers facts Conclusion A Family's best friend Author Bio Introduction Happiness is a warm puppy. -Charles M. Schulz Boxers are fun loving dogs with a heart of gold. At first glance, they may seem imposing with a hidden message of 'see but don't touch' - that is until their joy and boundless energy comes shining through! This short haired, stocky breed comes from Germany. A mix between an Old English Bulldog and the Bullenbeisser (Now extinct), this breed is a part of the working group of dogs. After World War I, Boxers arrived to the United States, and became a lovable companion to many dog owners. Despite their origins, it is not a surprise to hear Boxers called the "Peter Pan" of the dog world. This label is quite accurate because this breed of dog takes a long time to mature into adulthood. Usually they are considered mature when they are three years old! So you will enjoy their puppy like antics for a few years. Typical Boxers are smart, funny, alert and loyal. They are also friendly, (although wary with strangers until they warm up) and will go to great lengths to please you. However, it is important to note these wonderful qualities hide a stubborn streak that could outlast your patience! Thankfully, this type of behavior is not common, and is the result of inappropriate training methods. Mental and physical exercise is required for this breed. This does not mean he / she cannot live in an apartment with you. They can adapt as long as you are there to spend time with them and provide the required exercise. This breed is gentle with children and a wonderful playmate for them. Boxers also love hugs, pats, kisses and rubs. The more the merrier! There is no doubt their clownish behavior, goofy antics, crazy faces and boundless energy will bring a smile to your face, and a warm feeling to your heart. For these reasons and more, Boxers are highly recommended as a loyal companion well deserving of the title... man's best friend!
