Book excerpt: Troubled by an inability to find any meaning in his life, the 25-year-old narrator of this deceptively simple novel quits university and eventually arrives at his brother's New York apartment. In a bid to discover what life is all about, he writes lists. He becomes obsessed by time and whether it actually matters. He faxes his meteorologist friend. He endlessly bounces a ball against the wall. He befriends a small boy who lives next door. He yearns to get to the bottom of life and how best to live it. Funny, friendly, enigmatic and frequently poignant - superbly naive.

Book excerpt: No Longer Naïve is an in-depth look at the history of African soccer at the game's greatest showcase event. As soccer grew globally over the 20th century and the World Cup became the zenith of the sport internationally, Africa was left trailing, both through a lack of organization and exclusion by the powers that be. In 1974, Africa's 'best' team, Zaire, were humiliated on the world stage, creating a negative perception of African soccer. Teams from Africa were often labelled naïve in their approach, but gradually African nations repaired their reputation. This led to increased participation, vastly improved players and famous victories over the world's best - culminating in the tournament being hosted on the continent for the first time in 2010. However, while great strides have been made on the pitch, greed, in-fighting, violence and the whiff of corruption behind the scenes have undermined progress. African sides are no longer naïve, but are we any closer to seeing a team from Africa lift the World Cup?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book and its content hopefully will create a fire in the believers of the “little guy” or the “common people” of America. The modern-day politician and the Washington Bureaucracy have abused their powers, the “Constitution,” and the “Bill of Rights”; and it’s time we the people of America take back our government. Enough is enough, and we the people should get rid of ALL politicians who disassemble or ignore our “Constitution” and replace them with people who want to work “for” us. We do not care about Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Libertarians, or any political party. We want “Patriotic Americans” who want to properly represent us and honor our “Constitution.” We want all you dishonest, greedy, and self-serving politicians to take a hike and stop running this country. We want less government in our lives at both the “Local” and “Federal” level and most of all stop trying to control our freedoms, beliefs, and values. This is the “people’s Country” and all you politicians should take note and remember that. Your position in government is to “serve” not control.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John R Leigh, born in Bolton, Lancashire, and educated in Cambridge, was musical, mathematical, scientific and literary. At school in the 1930s, his headmaster told him there would be no more wars and no need for more scientists. His life then ranged first from languages teacher, radar technician and RAF flight lieutenant in WWII, to marriage with a talented and literary American wife. After the war, John changed career to retrain in engineering—for a married man, a brave decision. Over the years, the keen theatre-going couple saw many diverse plays. Convinced that he had found an original approach to seeing Shakespearean dramas, he spent happy years describing and refining his thoughts: what ideas, prejudices and religious beliefs would surface in the minds of Shakespeare’s own audience, the groundlings and nobles? In our day, we cannot help but react with our own beliefs and social customs; yet in Globe Theatre, how would people have responded to seeing a ghost in the early sixteenth century? Rather differently than nowadays, John thought. (Hamlet studies form the greater part of his collected work.) Suppose you were seeing Hamlet for the first time: hence the title ‘The Naïve Shakespearean’.
