Описание: A standout among introductory biomechanics texts, Biomechanics of Sport and Exercise, Fourth Edition With Web Resource, takes a unique approach to introducing exercise and sport biomechanics. Using simple terms, the book presents mechanics before functional anatomy, helping students first understand external forces and their effects on motion; then explores how the musculoskeletal system responds and generates its own internal forces to maintain position; and finally shows how to apply biomechanical principles to analyze movement and ultimately improve performance. The fourth edition expands its commitment to enabling students to discover the principles of biomechanics through observation. Easy-to-understand experiments are presented for students to try in the classroom or on their own. Sample problem sidebars guide students through choosing the appropriate equation to determine the forces acting or motion occurring in a specific scenario and then helps them solve the equation. This practical approach-combining clear illustrations, sample calculations, and encouragement for active learning-helps students develop a deeper understanding of the underlying mechanical concepts. In addition to careful updates throughout the book, other new enhancements in the fourth edition include the following: New content explores the technologies and devices available to coaches, athletes, and the general public to measure aspects of athletes’ movements.New full-color art and diagrams enhance the text and help students visualize mechanics in real-world scenarios.Explanations of the equations used in the text make the content more accessible to students.New concept application boxes provide deeper analysis of the field use of biomechanics, with topics such as the Magnus effect in baseball pitching, the wetsuit effect in triathlons, power output in cycling, centripetal acceleration when running a curve, and the work-energy principles in modern shot putting. Other learning aids include bold key terms, chapter objectives, and a guide to key equations and abbreviations. The chapters include a total of 18 sample problems that students can solve using a step-by-step process. A companion web resource offers additional review questions and problem sets.Biomechanics of Sport and Exercise, Fourth Edition, introduces the biomechanics of human movement in a clear and concise manner while promoting an active, engaged learning experience. Students will discover the principles of mechanics for themselves, resulting in a strong understanding of the subject matter.

Mindy McGinnis, award-winning author of The Female of the Species and A Madness So Discreet, returns with a new dark and twisted psychological thriller--perfect for fans of Gone Girl and Fight Club.
Sasha Stone knows her place--first-chair clarinet, top of her class, and at the side of her Oxford-wearing boyfriend. She's worked her entire life to ensure her path to Oberlin Conservatory as a star musician is perfectly paved.
But suddenly there's a fork in the road in the shape of Isaac Harver. Her body shifts toward him when he walks by, and her skin misses his touch even though she's never known it. Why does he act like he knows her so well--too well--when she doesn't know him at all?
Sasha discovers that her by-the-book life began by ending the chapter of another: the twin sister she absorbed in the womb. But that doesn't explain the gaps of missing time in her practice schedule, or the memories she has of things she certainly never did with Isaac.
Armed with the knowledge that her heart might not be hers alone, Sasha must decide what she's willing to do--and who she's willing to hurt--to take it back.

Life hadn't been easy since returning home from Afghanistan. His marriage was on the rocks, his sports betting was out of control, and he was hanging out with the wrong cronies in Manhattan's Little Italy-just another war hero who couldn't piece his life back together in the real world. Also, there was that strange, annoying feeling that he was being watched . . .Humankind was indeed being evaluated, by the highly advanced Khantam Lom, an alien species in control of much of the galaxy. Did this selfish, war-mongering, human race warrant protection from the soon-to-be-invading Wikk Empire? An insectile species with insatiable appetites, the Wikk were hell-bent on subjugating Earth as one of their many farming settlements. So the adventure begins. Dominic inadvertently saves the life of a Khantam Lom Observer, and everything changes. Humankind has but one-seeming impossible-shot at avoiding a catastrophic fate. Dominic won't be able to do it alone, but will the ragtag team he's assembled be enough? Will any of them survive long enough to make a difference? Reviews: Good and Fun Book The storyline had plenty of action and adventure. A riveting and fun space opera and some scifi romance. Lots and lots of surprises with twists and turns around every corner. Characters were great and woven well into the action. Mark Wayne McGinnis gives the reader some new ideas to consider as the science fiction adventure unfolded. Enjoy!- Charles C. Grimes Just wonderful! One of the best-written and captivating military romance scifi novels I have read in a long time. Once I opened the cover I could not put The Hidden Ship down until I finished it. No slow spots, this book keeps you going from the beginning to the very last page. Highly recommenced this book! Looking forward to reading other works by Mark Wayne McGinnis. Much thanks sir!- JC3Honolulu Bought it to waste some time and ended up being ensnared by the story. This was really a pretty good read. I bought it just to read while killing time before an appointment. I read right up until the time I had the appointment, then rushed back home to finish it. I'll look for more of the author's work.- Bud Fast-paced fun read! Guardian Ship is a fun entertaining military space opera - just a good old-fashioned adventure scifi book. With the fate of Humanity on the line, these homegrown likable characters join together to take on alien occupiers against all odds. The excellent character development and a very descriptive plot line bring this story to life. I felt like I was in the fight myself! - Eric in AZ An enjoyable read. This is the first novel I've come across by Mark Wayne Mcginnis. I very much enjoyed this one, a wonderful scifi space opera, with a side of sy fi romance thrown in just to make things interesting. The writing itself (voice) is great. The story made sense. The characters were likable. I found myself sneaking time over lunch to read it, something I rarely ever do. I'll look forward to checking out more of Mark's work.- Wally Lafferty Awesome Book! Just got through reading The Star Watch series and The Hidden Ship and I must say they was awesome.The story was great, as were the characters. The book had lots of action and adventure, the science fiction was very believable and Guardian Ship has well-developed characters.The alien alliance was certainly interesting.All around a very good read..Hopefully there will be some kind of follow-up book.Thank You!- Amazon Customer
You're home on a Friday night, scrolling through Instagram, ready to go to bed.
You see pictures on your timeline of a party you were invited to, but didn't go to. You were confident when you said no, but now you can't stop thinking about it, and you start feeling worse.
You have FOMO, or, Fear of Missing Out.
Coined in a Harvard Business School article, FOMO has become a global term to describe the decimating anxiety when thinking other people are having better, more fulfilling, experiences than you are. It's a natural, biological response, but that doesn't make it feel any better. Amplified by the rise of social media, #FOMO has become a cultural crisis--so what's the cure?
Patrick McGinnis, creator of the term FOMO, has been thinking about for seventeen years--and he has a solution: decision-making. Learning to weigh the costs and benefits of your choices, prioritizing your decisions, and listening to your gut are central to silencing FOMO and its lesser-known cousin, FOBO: Fear of a Better Option. After all, don't you want to feel comfortable and confident in your decisions?
Written with self-evaluations throughout the book, Fear of Missing Out: Practical Decision Making in a World of Overwhelming Choice helps you ascertain and eliminate the parts of your life that are causing more anxiety than happiness.
So give this a read, and then go to that party, start that new book, create a new goal--or don't. Make that decision, and be confident in it: it's the first of many of its kind.

Perfect for fans of One of Us Is Lying and Truly Devious!
Tress Montor's family used to mean something--until she didn't have a family anymore. When her parents disappeared seven years ago while driving her best friend home, Tress lost everything. The entire town shuns her now that she lives with her drunken, one-eyed grandfather at what locals refer to as the "White Trash Zoo."
Felicity Turnado has it all: looks, money, and a secret. One misstep could send her tumbling from the top of the social ladder, and she's worked hard to make everyone forget that she was with the Montors the night they disappeared. Felicity has buried what she knows so deeply that she can't even remember what it is . . . only that she can't look at Tress without feeling shame and guilt.
But Tress has a plan. A Halloween costume party at an abandoned house provides the ideal situation for Tress to pry the truth from Felicity--brick by brick--as she slowly seals her former best friend into a coal chute. Tress will have her answers--or settle for revenge.
