Download or read book Rube Foster in His Time written by Larry Lester and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-09-14 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Andrew "Rube" Foster (1879-1930) stands among the best African American pitchers of the 1900s, this baseball pioneer made his name as the founder and president of the Negro National League, the first all-black league to survive a full season. In addition to founding this groundbreaking black-owned and -operated business, Foster also founded and managed the Chicago American Giants, one of the most successful black baseball teams of the pre-integration era. This definitive biography combines period editorials and correspondence with insightful narrative to provide a comprehensive portrait of this innovative Hall of Famer. From the unstructured early days of black baseball, when Foster gained glory as a hard-throwing pitcher, through his struggles to establish the NNL and the Giants, to his tragic death from complications of syphilis, this work pays overdue tribute to an authentic American baseball icon.

Each essay focuses on specific examples of gameplay dynamics to tease out the specificities of videogames as a new form of interaction between text and digital technology for the purposes of entertainment. That modes of engagement with the videogame text are many and varied, and construct the playing subject in different ways, provides the central theme of Videogame,player, text. Online play, clan membership, competitive or co-operative play, player modification of game texts, and the solo play of a single player are each addressed through individual analyses of the gameplay experiences produced by, for example, The Sims, Grand Theft Auto, Prince of Persia, Doom, Quake, World of Warcraft, StreetFighter and Civilisation.

Book excerpt: Got a spirit-crushing boss? Well so does Lauren Johnson - five of them. Based on true stories of bosses' political maneuverings and workers under siege, The Boss tells Lauren's story - a talented but naive professional struggling under a self-serving, insensitive boss who undermines her at every turn. And working around her boss doesn't help - most of the company execs are ineffective in their own right. Lauren just wants to get her job done, but every manager throws up one more needless hurdle. Disturbing, amusing, and wry, the story progresses as Lauren is forced to upwardly manage the brownnoser, the backstabber, the micromanager, the passive-aggressive, the bully, and the idea stealer. Forced into a final decision, Lauren must fight back or have her spirit crushed.

Book excerpt: "Angela's Ashes" tells of life in Ireland in the mid-twentieth century, as seen through the eyes of a poor boy. "Fifty Years Before Crack" describes the culture of blue-collar Baltimore during that same period, fifty years before crack cocaine distribution became the principal industry. In an era before credit cards, two-car garages, shopping malls, mutual funds, designer jeans, Little Leagues, TV, PCs and civil rights legislation; boys earned pennies to supplement family income, parents believed the word of adults rather than that of their children, and the kids had a knack for entertaining themselves without adult involvement. It also was a time when politicians were servants of the people rather than being self-serving, and teachers, pastors, police and lawyers were held in high esteem.
