Описание:
Cycling is one of the world's great sports. From The Tour de France to the Paris-Roubaix to velodromes across the globe, it encompasses many disciplines: from climbing mountains to massed sprints to the loneliness of the time trial.
But what separates race winners from the nearly men? Top cyclists are physically similar, train the right way, eat the right things, and yet there is something that separates them. It's their hidden engine - not a secret mechanical aid - but what's between their ears that makes the difference.
In this superbly-researched and accessible book for fans of cycling, psychologist and cycling author Martijn Veltkamp gets to the heart of the supremely demanding and challenging sport of professional cycling, and the mental side of performance that drives success. He addresses fundamental questions in an easy-to-read way, including: what motivates riders and how does motivation affect performance? Where does a rider's fear of descending originate from, and how do you get rid of it? Why do some cyclists succumb under pressure, whilst others do not? Why is cycling on your own mentally more challenging than when in a group?
Written for connoisseurs of cycling, but equally rewarding for general readers, the book examines cycling from the viewpoint of classic psychological studies, and stage and race histories, as well as interviews with former professional riders. The Hidden Motor is a must-read book for anyone who wants to know all about this most exceptional of sports.
This book is the English language translation of De Verborgen Motor, originally published in The Netherlands in 2015.

Praise for the original Dutch version of the book
"Fun and informative for cyclists and those interested in pro-cycling. All scientific theories are explained brilliantly with examples and anecdotes from practice. Recommended " HetisKoers
"An original, interesting view of the peloton. One that forces you to look beyond merely the results." WielerRevue
"An accessible, clear and entertaining story on the most important mental aspects of cycling." Fiets magazine
"Clearly structured with nice examples from practice, all supported with scientific evidence or otherwise strong arguments. This is material that the peloton can take advantage of. Very impressive when you can achieve that on paper." ProCycling
"To get a good impression of what is going on in the peloton one might want to read "De verborgen motor" by psychologist Martijn Veltkamp. It sharpens the senses, refreshes your memory, and awakes the cycling fever." Trouw
"The most surprising Tour de France book of the year. Veltkamp shows himself not only a cycling connoisseur, but a good writer as well. With clear argumentation and good examples from practice he explains how there are multiple sources of motivation or how to deal with the fear of descending. Interesting, informative, entertaining."

Описание: This book explores the proliferation and spread of Brazilian-born religious forms and practices throughout the world. The global diffusion of Brazilian religions provides an excellent lens to understand contemporary religious forms. As the book shows, religious movements as diverse as Santo Daime, Candomble, Capoeira, John of God, and Brazilian style Pentecostalism and Catholicism, have become immensely popular in many places outside Brazil. This global spread is not merely the result of Brazilian migrants taking their religions abroad, it is also due to global media and to spiritual seekers, travelling to and from Brazil. Global Trajectories of Brazilian Religion demonstrates that in a dynamic space of historical and cultural production, Brazil is imagined and re-created as an authentic, spiritual, and sensual place that functions as the center for various global religions. To understand the new cross-fertilizations between religion, life-style, tourism and migration, this book introduces the notion of ‘Lusospheres’ , a term that refers to the historical Portuguese colonial reach, yet signals the contemporary modes of cultural interaction in a different geo-political age.

Описание:
The capitalist market, progressives bemoan, is a cold monster: it disrupts social bonds, erodes emotional attachments, and imposes an abstract utilitarian rationality. But what if such hallowed critiques are completely misleading? This book argues that the production of new sources of faith and enchantment is crucial to the dynamics of the capitalist economy. Distinctively secular patterns of attraction and attachment give modern institutions a binding force that was not available to more traditional forms of rule. Elaborating his alternative approach through an engagement with the semiotics of money and the genealogy of economy, Martijn Konings uncovers capitalism's emotional and theological content in order to understand the paradoxical sources of cohesion and legitimacy that it commands. In developing this perspective, he draws on pragmatist thought to rework and revitalize the Marxist critique of capitalism.

Описание:
When God gives you a message it needs to be heard.
What if I told you that, by applying some simple strategies, your message could reach more people, more effectively, while making a bigger impact--an impact, not only on others, but also on you?
The tragedy is that many Christian leaders and influencers are thinking two-dimensionally about their message. They either preach it, or in some cases, they write a book around it, cutting their audience short, and also themselves.
People consume content multiple ways. They read, they listen, they watch, they attend and they participate. By utilizing different vehicles that facilitate information consumption, we can innovate the way we package our message and bring it to market. Not only will we reach more people, we will also position ourselves to generate tremendous streams of income.
The principles, concepts and strategies that are outlined in this book have helped me to personally:
- Generate $500K in 40 days from an idea that wasn't yet an actual product.
- Build a niche database of over 100K leads in less than 3 months.
- Build the largest children's pastors conference in the country in less than one year.
- Produce half a million dollars in revenue by giving away 4,500 books.
- Create $30K in sales, in less than 10 days, by selling a $9 product.
- Generate $100K in 5 minutes of a webinar (and double that in the 24 hours. ...and much, much more
This is not an illusion. This stuff is real Let's open up our minds, and let's jump in.

Описание:
The Meme-ing of Zense, Is the first bundle of internet memes
printed and glued into a book by a Zen Buddhist Lama.
The West is currently dominated by YIN (mind/ego)
this is why everything is now about feelings, emotion instead of truth and reason.
We went to far and we need to go back to basic reality, YANG (matter)
We need to bring back balance because imbalance always leads to destruction.
With these memes the Lama aims to expose the nonsense of mind/ego with Zense
and pull us out of the one-sided state of mind the West is currently in.
Once we learn to see without mind, we will be truly free.

Описание:
Does art possess the power to cause structural and meaningful changes in daily life? How can we inject our daily reality with the estranging, binding, and reflective qualities of theater, performance art, and the visual arts? Using the artist's desire to escape institutional space as a point of departure, the temporary master Reinventing Daily Life investigated the implications, the possibilities, and the limits of daily life as inspiration, as a place for presentation, and as a central material. This publication marks the completion and distillation of this inquiry. By means of a critical essay, correspondence with kindred spirits from the field, and visual impressions of the alumni's work, this book reflects on the possibility to merge art and life, fiction and reality, and on the importance of this process for the future of artistic practice.
