Subversions of Desire
"This contextualizing of the imagination reveals two dimensions in the writer's discursive strategy: the ideological function of reconciling contradictions, and the utopian drive to subvert imperialist subjection via the invention of an egalitarian, resurgent Filipino community--the fulfillment of the dream of the 1896 Revolution. Joaquin's corpus is therefore as conflicted, as torn by the same contradictions as the body politic which his art seeks to mediate."--P. [4] of cover.

The Unstoppable Golfer
It's no secret that more than two-thirds of the shots a golfer makes are short ones: putts, chips, and pitches. Long drives may garner applause, but whether a golfer wants to win the Masters or just five pounds from his mates on Saturday morning, it's the little shots that make the difference. In The Unstoppable Golfer, Dr. Rotella, who has worked with stars like Rory McIlroy, Darren Clarke and Graeme McDowell, will teach readers how to use their minds to master the short game, by achieving a calm state of mind in which the focus is only one thing-the hole. In addition to preparing players mentally, Rotella will also explain the science of memory, and how knowledge of the brain's workings-in particular how it masters physical tasks-can improve a golf game, particularly the short game. The path to greatness isn't an easy one, and a player needs inspiration, which will come from great stories about the golfers and other sports professionals that Rotella has worked with. Mastering chips, pitches, bunker shots, and putts provides one of the ultimate pleasures of the game--and this is a pleasure readers will come to know by training their minds to become unstoppable golfers.
Mind How You Play
No matter what age we are, or what ability we have, or what level we play at - in sport we all encounter the same kinds of inner pressures, and our reactions all follow the same kinds of pathways. Unlike Forrest Gump and ping pong, we all suffer from the things that don't come easy to us. These complications seem to make our game much harder to play at times. However, virtually all these complications can be traced back to what golfing legend Bobby Jones once described as ""The 6 inch playing field between our ears."" Sport should just be about the pleasure, the fun and the rewards - not the complications and the angst! Mind How You Play sets us on a journey - a fascinating search for the real gold of mastering a consistent approach to sporting excellence by gaining an understanding of ourselves. This book will enable you to change your perspectives about your sporting practice and performance, and through that change your way of being in your game!
