For three extraordinary seasons at Bayern Munich, Martin Perarnau was given total access around the German super club – to its players, its backroom staff, its board members and, above all, to its manager, Pep Guardiola. In the follow-up to his critically acclaimed account of Guardiola's first full season at Bayern, Pep Confidential, Perarnau now lifts the lid on the Catalan's whole tenure in Bavaria. Pep Guardiola: The Evolution takes the reader on a journey through three action packed seasons as Bayern smashed domestic records yet struggled to emulate that dominance in Europe, analysing Guardiola's management style through key moments on and off the field. Perarnau reveals how Guardiola improved as a manager at Bayern despite failing to land the ultimate prize in European football, examines his decision to leave Germany to take up the challenge at Manchester City and how his managerial style will continue to evolve in the Premier League. This is more than the story of three seasons with one of the biggest clubs in the game. It is a portrait and analysis of a manager and the footballing philosophies that have beguiled the world.

Entre Linhas

Houve um tempo em que os rumos do futebol mundial eram ditados pelo que acontecia nas Copas do Mundo. Um estilo dominante se impunha e passava a ser amplamente imitado até que outra escola e um novo modelo de jogo saíssem vencedores no grande palco do futebol, ganhando status de referência mundo afora. Hoje em dia, esses padrões já não se estabelecem pelo confronto entre as grandes seleções de quatro em quatro anos, mas no futebol de clubes, semana após semana, em suas respectivas ligas. E especialmente na Europa, que reúne os principais jogadores e treinadores. No livro Entre linhas, Michael Cox investiga os últimos trinta anos do futebol europeu e revela o impacto que cada campe...

Doutor Sócrates

Sócrates Brasileiro Sampaio de Souza Vieira de Oliveira. Um nome longo e improvável, mas bastante apropriado para um personagem tão múltiplo e fascinante. Sócrates foi em seu tempo um dos símbolos máximos do futebol brasileiro e, fora de campo, uma referência política fundamental na luta pelo retorno à democracia no Brasil. Em seu íntimo, porém, rejeitava a aura que cerca os ídolos, e sentia verdadeira satisfação nas realizações e nas vontades mais terrenas, como tantos outros Souzas e Oliveiras. Em "Doutor Sócrates — A biografia", Andrew Downie conseguiu reunir e descrever, a partir de um detalhado trabalho jornalístico, todos os diferentes perfis que couberam dentro da...

Coastal Marine Ecosystems of Latin America

Coastal and marine ecosystems, some severely degraded, other still pristine, control rich resources of inshore environments and coastal seas of Latin America's Pacific and Atlantic margins. Conflicts between the needs of the region's nations and diminishing revenues and environmental quality have induced awareness of coastal ecological problems and motivated financial support for restoration and management. The volume provides a competent review on the structure, processes and function of 22 important Latin American coastal marine ecosystems. Each contribution describes the environmental settings, biotic components and structure of the system, considers trophic processes and energy flow, evaluates the modifying influence of natural and human perturbations, and suggests management needs. Although the focus of the book is on basic ecological research, the results have application for coastal managers.
