Funning. Diviértete corriendo nace del espíritu optimista y positivo de su autor. El periodista Rafa Vega ha acuñado esta expresión en la que se unen las palabras inglesas fun (divertido) y running (correr).El running forma parte de nuestro tiempo libre, es ludico y, por tanto, debe suponer una liberacion y no ser causa de presion. De ahi nace la expresion "funning". Que el que corra, cada vez que salga a la calle, lo haga sintiendo que se esta divirtiendo.En definitiva, el funning es una filosofia a la que se esta uniendo cada vez mas gente. Correr sin ataduras, sin necesidad de agobiarse por el reloj. Simplemente, correr por el mero hecho de sentirte bien y ser feliz.

W. G. Grace burst onto the cricket scene in the 1860s with spectacular force. He dominated the game until the end of the century, and influences it to this day. He was the worlds first sporting superstar, rivalled as a public figure only by Gladstone and Queen Victoria herself. His staggering achievements as both batsman and bowler made him the greatest draw cricket had ever known. Though often depicted as an overgrown schoolboy, W. G. was extremely shrewd and ruthlessly exploited the power his immense popularity gave him. A notorious shamateur, he amassed great wealth through cricket, while remaining the standard-bearer for the Gentlemen against the Players for forty years.Researched in archives from Grimsby (where Grace once scored 400) to Australia, Simon Raes new biography offers a radical analysis of Graces career, and reviews the more controversial aspects of his conduct, including verbal and physical altercations, both on and off the field, and his kidnapping of an Australian cricketer from Lords. But W. G. Grace: A Life provides more than a fresh look at the cricketer. It focuses on Graces formative family background; his intensely competitive relations with his two famous brothers, E. M. and Fred; his career as a doctor, and his ambitions and bereavements as a father. Drawing on little-known diaries and letters, and unique access to Graces own library, Simon Rae builds up a convincing psychological portrait of the man behind the most famous beard in English history.

An eye-opening survey of cricket, from the crowd violence and blatant match-rigging of the eighteenth century, down to the twentieth centurys glaring abuses of the spirit of the game.Written in the same lively style that won such praise for his W.G. Grace: A Life, Simon Raes history of cheating will appeal to the cricket fan and general reader alike. Ranging from Thomas White, who notoriously arrived at the crease with a bat the size of the wicket, on through the Bodyline controversy and throwing, sledging, umpire baiting, and the recent disgrace of Hansie Cronje, Its Not Cricket makes us ask whether cricket really ever was the yardstick of all that is true, honest, pure and of good repute.

This beautiful book draws on Robert Races extensive collection of traditional moving toys, looking at the ways the makers have achieved remarkable and varied results, often with very limited resources.

It continues, from this basis, to develop a design for an automaton. The book shows that designing and making these simple but wonderfully satisfying mechanical devices is fun, and that good results can be achieved in many different ways, using a variety of materials, tools and equipment such as wood and wire, card and paper, bamboo, string, tin plate and feathers.

Deporte y sociedad civil en tiempos de dictadura analiza los cruces entre dos pasiones nacionales, la política y el deporte, en un contexto particularmente complejo: la última, y más cruenta, dictadura militar en la Argentina, aquella que empezo el 24 de marzo de 1976 y termino en diciembre de 1983.En estas paginas, los autores ponen al descubierto la trama que conecto durante esos años a la Asociacion del Futbol Argentino con el gobierno de facto para hacer de la seleccion nacional una "cuestion de Estado". Y esto, en el marco del surgimiento de una figura que sera clave en el mundo del futbol durante decadas: Julio Grondona, presidente de la Asociacion de Futbol Argentino durante 35 años. Analizan las transmisiones televisivas de apertura y clausura del Mundial de Futbol de 1978 desde una dimension tecnica, estetica y politica. Visitan el Luna Park y su rol como arena politica. Dan voz a deportistas detenidos y desaparecidos. Revisan la historia detras de un pase de Diego Armando Maradona, los canticos y la resistencia de la hinchada de Nueva Chicago, asi como la violencia asociada a Chacarita Juniors y la historia del Club Excursionistas y el desalojo de la "villa miseria" del hoy coqueto barrio de Bajo Belgrano. Estos pequeños episodios se vuelven en conjunto un singular aporte a la sociologia del deporte y a la historia argentina reciente.

La historia del Club Atlético Atlanta, su relación con el barrio de Villa Crespo y la comunidad judía.Raanan Rein se concentra en los orígenes de Atlanta, de sus hinchas y de Villa Crespo como una forma de explorar la integracion social de inmigrantes semitas y de sus descendientes en la vida urbana porteña. Para la primera generacion de estos inmigrantes, la pertenencia al club fue una forma de convertirse en argentinos. Para la siguiente, ya nacida en el pais y dispuesta a agregar un fuerte componente nacional al mosaico de su identidad, se trato, ademas, de una forma de mantener una etnicidad judia; mientras que para la tercera generacion esta pertenencia se transformo en tradicion familiar. Lo que prueba, entre otras cosas, que el futbol ha ofrecido y sigue ofreciendo un escenario privilegiado en el cual distintos grupos sociales pueden, a la vez, afirmarse en sus diferencias pero tambien integrarse a un colectivo mayor, en este caso, la Nacion.

Lo primero que hizo la mejor plantilla de la historia del Real Sporting de Gijón fue descender. Sin embargo, los Quini, Castro, Maceda, Ferrero y Mesa volvieron a la división de honor del fútbol español en 1977 y lo hicieron para marcar una epoca. Un subcampeonato de Liga, dos de Copa y media docena de participaciones en competiciones europeas jalonaron la etapa en la que el Eurosporting era un temible rival, capaz de golear al FC Barcelona en el Camp Nou, de derrotar al AC Milan de Van Basten, Gullit y Donadoni en El Molinon o de ser el equipo que mas jugadores aportaba a la Seleccion española. La formula de su exito se cimentaba en una cuidada seleccion de sus fichajes y una cantera prodigiosa que aportaba regularmente hornadas de jugadores excepcionales: primero, los hermanos Ablanedo, Joaquin, Cundi, Eloy Olaya Mas tarde, Abelardo, Luis Enrique, Manjarin, JuaneleEl periodista Rafa Quiros fue testigo privilegiado de ese tiempo, como seguidor y como cronista deportivo para Radio Nacional de España durante mas de treinta años. De lo vivido entonces deja constancia en esta formidable memoria sentimental del mejor Sporting que haya existido. Al menos, hasta la fecha

"Simplemente, Wolff. Simplemente, Quique. Simplemente, un maestro. Simplemente, un orgullo. Y, sin embargo, ¡qué difícil definir a este gran hombre! Y, como pasa con su autor, este libro también es dificil de clasificar: puede leerse como autobiografia, pero tambien incluye un compendio de entrevistas memorables con grandes personalidades. Como Quique no puede asociarse a una sola profesion, Simplemente, Wolff no puede catalogarse dentro de un solo genero. A lo largo de su exitosa carrera, Quique ha sido un verdadero ejemplo; lejos de quedarme con su gran talento profesional, destaco su innata e integra persona. Pero, tal vez, el mayor exito de Wolff es su capacidad para evolucionar y abrazar nuevos desafios. No conformarse con lo logrado e ir por mas y, fundamentalmente, por algo nuevo" (Dr. Hector Masoero, presidente y rector honorario de UADE y vicepresidente de la Academia Nacional de Educacion).
