![]() ![]() Author: Wilson Jonathan Publisher: Limina Un viaggio straordinario nel passato e nel futuro dello sport. Il bestseller internazionale che ogni tifoso e appassionato deve leggere e conoscere. Se oggi il calcio è uno degli sport più praticati, all'inizio dell'Ottocento era poco più di un passatempo dilettantistico e gli schemi di gioco erano solo intuizioni pionieristiche. Come uno storico, ma anche un detective, Jonathan Wilson analizza i dettagli più sottili di questo sport, ricostruendo regole, modelli e meccanismi. Racconta a chi deve la sua gloria il Barcellona di Guardiola, da dove nasce il pragmatismo inglese, com'è la vera storia del Catenaccio, e qual è stata l'influenza dei grandi tattici italiani, spagnoli, tedeschi e portoghesi degli ultimi anni. Esplora come ogni cultura abbia modellato il proprio modo di giocare, dai sudamericani, che non amano la rigidità e preferiscono inserire elementi innovativi e fantasiosi, agli europei, che si concentrano su schemi collettivi e meno individuali. Lungo il percorso, Wilson sposta l'obiettivo sulle vite dei grandi giocatori, pensatori e allenatori che hanno plasmato questo gioco. Figure geniali capaci di tenere insieme squadre difficili, forgiare campioni e appassionare milioni di persone, perché sono la cultura, le scelte e l'esperienza dei singoli a scrivere davvero la storia di squadre eccezionali. E forse, trovando l'equilibrio ideale fra tutti gli estremi, si può sognare di costruire la squadra perfetta. € 22,90

Stare tra i pali significa essere un outsider, avere un ruolo profondamente diverso da quello di tutti gli altri giocatori. Chi difende la porta è l'ultimo baluardo, può essere acclamato come un eroe o può sprfondare nel baratro in solitudine. Una mappa globale dell'individuo solitario che è entrato nel cuore dei tifosi e nell'epica sportiva. Con una prefazione di Dino Zoff. € 18,00

![]() ![]() Author: Wilson Jonathan Publisher: Nation Books Diego Maradona, Gabriel Batistuta, Juan Román Riquelme, Sergio Agüero, Lionel Messi... Argentina is responsible for producing some of the greatest soccer players of all time. Their rich, volatile history is by turns both sublime and ruthlessly pragmatic. Argentina is a nation obsessed with soccer, and Jonathan Wilson, having lived there off and on during the last decade, is ideally placed to chart the five phases of Argentinian soccer: the appropriation of the British game; the golden age of la nuestra, the exuberant style of playing that developed as Juan Perón led the country into isolation; a hardening into the brutal methods of anti-fútbol; the fusing of beauty and efficacy under César Luis Menotti; and the ludicrous (albeit underachieving) creative talent of recent times. More than any other nation, Argentina lives and breathes soccer, its theories and myths. The subject is fiercely debated on street corners and in cafes. It has even preoccupied the country's greatest writers and philosophers. ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES is the definitive history of one of the world’s greatest soccer-playing nations and its paradoxes. € 16,60

![]() ![]() Author: Wilson Edward O., Hogan Jonathan (NRT) Publisher: Brilliance Audio Searching for meaning in what Nietzsche once called “the rainbow colors” around the outer edges of knowledge and imagination, Edward O. Wilson bridges science and philosophy to create a twenty-first-century treatise on human existence. Once criticized for his over-reliance on genetics, Wilson unfurls here his most expansive and advanced theories on human behavior, recognizing that, even though the human and spider evolved similarly, the poet’s sonnet is wholly different than the spider’s web. Whether attempting to explicate “the Riddle of the Human Species,” warning of “the Collapse of Biodiversity,” or even creating a plausible “Portrait of E.T.,” Wilson does indeed believe that humanity holds a special position in the known universe. Alarmed, however, that we are about to abandon natural selection by redesigning biology and human nature as we wish them, Wilson concludes that advances in science and technology bring us our greatest moral dilemma since God stayed the hand of Abraham. Edward O. Wilson is widely recognized as one of the world’s leading scientists. He is the winner of the Pulitzer Prize and the author of the bestsellingThe Social Conquest of Earth and Letters to a Young Scientist. € 17,90

![]() ![]() Author: Blumhardt Christoph Friedrich, Moore Charles E. (COM), Wilson-Hartgrove Jonathan (FRW) Publisher: Plough Pub House How can Christians represent the love of Christ to their neighbors (let alone people in foreign countries) in an age when Christianity has earned a bad name from centuries of intolerance and cultural imperialism? Is it enough to love and serve them? Can you win their trust without becoming one of them? Can you be a missional Christian without a church? This provocative book, based on a recently uncovered collection of 100-year-old letters from a famous pastor to his nephew, a missionary in China, will upend pretty much everyone’s assumptions about what it means to give witness to Christ. Blumhardt challenges us to find something of God in every person, to befriend people and lead them to faith without expecting them to become like us, and to discover where Christ is already at work in the world. This is truly good news: No one on the planet is outside the love of God.At a time when Christian mission has too often been reduced to social work or proselytism, this book invites us to reclaim the heart of Jesus’ great commission, quietly but confidently incarnating the love of Christ and trusting him to do the rest. € 10,80

![]() ![]() Author: Wilson Jonathan, Murray Scott (CON) Publisher: Orion Pub Co A compelling forensic analysis of 10 key Liverpool soccer matches that have shaped the club's fortunes for more than a century Much of the soccer news coverage these days has little to do with what actually occurs on the field. Jonathan Wilson has established himself as one of the sport's preeminent writers, focusing on the tactics and how events on the field have shaped soccer history. From the long-lost triumphs of manager Tom Watson, who arrived in 1896, to the 1977 European Cup triumph over Borussia Mönchengladbach, to the astonishing Champions League Final comeback against AC Milan, 'The Miracle of Istanbul,' in 2005, this book covers 10 of the most important Liverpool matches. Legendary players and managers of the stature of Bill Shankly, Bob Paisley, and Kenny Dalglish populate these pages, which highlight the genius and the flaws of individuals by examining them in practice. Certain games lie on the fault-lines of history. Perhaps they mark the end of one era or the beginning of another. Perhaps they encapsulate a summation of a manager's reign. Or perhaps they mark a crossroads, moments at which soccer looked one way, and then went the other. But this is not a virtual history of Liverpool FC. Jonathan Wilson's prime purpose is not to speculate on what might have been, but to determine why what was, was. The Anatomy of Liverpool tells the story of a great club through a detailed examination of 10 key matches looking, as a soccer history must, first and foremost, at the ball. € 13,00
