Pediatric and Adolescent Sports Traumatology
by Vincenzo GuzzantiThis book focuses on the evaluation and treatment of a wide range of sports injuries in relation to the Tanner stage of sexual development in young athletes. A series of detailed chapters address the injuries likely to be encountered in different parts of the body, including the spine, shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand, hip, knee, ankle, and feet. Among the topics that receive particular attention are epiphyseal-physeal injuries, capsular ligament tears and the impact of their treatment on joint and bone development, and stress syndromes of the musculoskeletal system. Helpful algorithms covering the diagnosis and treatment of ligament tears are included, and advice is provided on when to return an athlete to training. One chapter is devoted to non-sports-related pathologies that have to be considered in the differential diagnosis of sports injuries in adolescents. The contributors to this volume are all recognized leaders in their subspecialty who explain their own treatment preferences.

Pedro: Poesía Latina Y Oratoria (elche 1530 - París 1566)
by Pedro Martinez Michael SilvermanA bold, no-holds-barred memoir from one of the most dominant and dynamic pitchers to ever play the game Before Pedro Martinez was the eight-time All Star, three-time Cy Young Award winner, and World Series champion, before stadiums full of fans chanted his name, he was just a little kid from the Dominican Republic who sat under a mango tree and dreamed of playing pro ball. Now in Pedro, the charismatic and always colorful pitcher opens up for the first time to tell his remarkable story. Martinez entered the big leagues a scrawny power pitcher with a lightning arm who they said wasn't "durable" enough, who they said was a punk. But what they underestimated about Pedro Martinez was the intensity of the fire inside. Like no one before or since, Martinez willed himself to become one of the most intimidating pitchers to have ever played the game. In Pedro we relive it all in Technicolor brightness, from his hardscrabble days in the minor leagues clawing for respect; to his early days in lonely Montreal, where he first struggled with the reputation of being a headhunter; to his legendary run with the Red Sox when start after start he dazzled with his pitching genius; to his twilight years on the mound as he put the finishing touches on a body of work that made him an icon. Bold, outspoken, intimate in its details, and grand in ego and ambition, this new memoir by one of baseball's most enigmatic figures will entertain and inspire generations of fans to come.

The Peerless Four: A Novel
by Victoria PattersonRunning so hard you think you'll choke on your next breath. Lungs burning like they're drenched in battery acid. Peripheral vision blurred by the same adrenaline that drowns out the cheers coming from the full stadium. And of course, the reporters. The men scribbling furiously on their notepads so they can publish every stumble, sprain, and sniffle in these historic games.This was the world of the female athletes in the 1928 Amsterdam Olympics, the first games in which women were allowed to compete (and on a trial basis, at that). Nicknamed "the Peerless Four," the Canadian track team included some of the strongest and most diversely talented women on the scene. Narrated by the team's chaperone-a former runner herself-the women embark on their journey with the same golden goals as every other Olympian, male or female. But as the Olympic tension begins to rise with unexpected injuries, heartbreaking disqualifications, and the pressure of supreme athletic performance, each woman discovers new fears and new priorities, all while the weight of women's future in the Olympics rests on their performance poise.The Peerless Four is more than a sports novel, more than a record of how far women's rights have come in the past 75 years. It's a meditation on sacrifice, loyalty, commitment, perseverance, and the courage to live a true underdog tale.

Pelota tricolor. Lo mejor de Antonio Casale para el Mundial
by Antonio CasaleUna recopilación de los mejores artículos de Antonio Casale sobre la Selección Colombia en los últimos doce años que todo fanático del fútbol debe leer. Son tres Mundiales y dos Copas América por las que Antonio Casale nos pasea en este libro. Sus líneas son una fiesta de emociones que nos devuelven a la frustración que nos dejaron las eliminatorias a Sudáfrica 2010, a la gloria y alegría en Brasil 2014, y a la esperanza de Rusia 2018. Donde en palabras de Casale recordamos momentos como el gol de penalti de Falcao que nos entregó el tiquete a Brasil, el zurdazo mágico de James contra Uruguay, los aciertos y desaciertos del Bolillo en el siglo XXI, el paso fugaz de Leonel Álvarez como DT y el renacer de un "Tigre". Pelota tricolor recoge los mejores textos de Casale, publicados semana tras semana en El Espectador, que reunidos se convierten en una montaña rusa que preparará a los hinchas para las mejores conversaciones alrededor de la Selección Colombia, antes, durante y después de Rusia 2018. No puede sonar el pitazo inicial en el estadio Olímpico Luzhniki de Moscú sin que usted haya leído este libro. "Critica cuando cree conveniente, elogia cuando considera que se han conseguido logros, y sobre todo, en la buena o en la mala, vibra. Casale es esa mezcla de periodista e hincha y por eso es difícil ubicarlo en un costado o el otro. Analiza como lo primero, pero siente como lo segundo (#). Antonio es hincha de la Selección Colombia; y más que de Colombia, del fútbol; y más que del fútbol, de la vida". -Del prólogo de Adolfo Zableh

The Penalty Area
by Alain GillotThe Penalty Area is a heartwarming novel about overcoming adversity, making human connections, and playing the glorious game of soccer. Vincent once had a shot at becoming a professional soccer player, but a career-ending injury put an end to his dreams. A tough kid from a poor family, he has become an emotionally cut-off man with frustrated hopes and limited options. He finds himself coaching an under-16 soccer club in an attempt to keep alive his only passion in life. The team he coaches is little more than a roster of hotheaded boys, none of whom understands the on-field chemistry needed to win. Simply put, they aren't of a championship caliber. When his unemployed sister Madeleine, a single mother, dumps her thirteen-year-old son on him, Vincent panics. With no clue how to take care of a teenager, he brings his nephew to practice and eventually throws him into the scrimmage. It's then that Vincent notices there's something strange about Léonard. He has a preternatural ability for anticipating each striker's intentions, making him a remarkably talented goalkeeper, but he seems detached, absent, lost. It becomes clear that Léonardhas undiagnosed Asperger's syndrome, and also that, with Léonard's abilities as a goalkeeper, Vincent's ragtag team has a chance to reach the finals. For that to happen, for the team to find a reason to rally behind this strange kid from Paris, Vincent will have to let down his guard and open his heart for the first time ever. A warm and engaging read, The Penalty Area is about building a sense of family on your own terms.

Peñarol y siempre Peñarol: La transición de 1913 y la cuestión del decanato
by Luciano ÁlvarezEsta investigación se centró en el proceso de separación de Peñarol de la empresa que lo fundó. Pero también reveló otros temas, acaso más interesantes, como la historia de los primeros clubes deportivos uruguayos y de cómo pasaron del amateurismo al profesionalismo. ¿Cuál es el club decano del fútbol uruguayo? Esta sencilla pregunta es el punto de partida de una polémica que solo ha crecido en intensidad con el paso de los años. Para responderla y, de ser posible, resolver la disputa que originó, Luciano Álvarez describe, analiza y esclarece los sucesos de 1913 y 1914, así como repasa todos los argumentos que se han esgrimido a favor y en contra del decanato de Peñarol a lo largo de siete décadas.Pero esta obra no se centra en el decanato, «un bien de relativa importancia», sino que narra los orígenes de la práctica futbolística en Uruguay así como la historia de uno de los clubes más prestigiosos y galardonados del mundo, su proceso de democratización, su popularidad y sus aportes al fútbol uruguayo.
