G. K. Chesterton is one of the first popular writers to object to culture's casual dismissal of the divine. In The Everlasting Man" he restores God to our understanding of history. " The Everlasting Man" is one of G. K. Chesterton's most important books. Frustrated with attempts to relate history without God such as H. G. Wells' " Outline of History" " The Everlasting Man" is Chesterton's view of history presented in two parts: " On the Creature Called Man " & " On the Man Called Christ." He argues that the central character in history is Christ & that no explanation other than the Christian one makes sense. Chesterton was one of the spiritual influences on C. S. Lewis & this book in particular was a key factor in Lewis' conversion to Christianity. Readers who appreciate the writings of Lewis will want to explore the writings of those who influenced him including Chesterton. " The Everlasting Man" is now available from Hendrickson in a re-typeset & redesigned version." ...

Short listed for the Best Football Book in the 2010 British Sport Book Awards The way Britain develops its top football talent is a hot topic of debate. The failure of all four of the UK's national teams to reach the 2008 European Championships & the ever-increasing reliance of England's top clubs on foreign talent underlines an undisputable fact: that Britain now lags well behind the world's top countries in producing the best footballers despite having the wealthiest league in the world & untold riches at the game's disposal. Every Boy's Dream: England's Football Future on the Line investigates why
- despite unprecedented expenditure on a huge overhaul of youth development in the past decade
- British football continues to fail to nurture top-class football talent. With some 10 000 boys in the system at any time
- & less than one per cent of those boys likely to make it as professional footballers
- there is a real need for a long hard look at our domestic football development system. Who funds the system? How are the boys recruited? Who is responsible for their coaching & what qualifications do they have for the job? Who looks after their welfare ensuring they are enjoying the sport & still keeping up with their schooling while under the clubs' stewardship? What happens when the boys don't make the cut & are released by the clubs? Every Boy's Dream does not pull any punches. It lays the blame at the doors of the authorities in charge of youth football. But rather than just listing the faults of system
- which are many as the hard-hitting real-life examples demonstrate
- it provides tales of inspiration & a blueprint for the future of the national game. It is the most thorough book ever written about football youth development & cracks through the age-old veneer of perceived wisdom that has stifled debate on the subject.
