New Releases by Peter Moore

From the streets of postwar Liverpool to the boardrooms of some of the world’s biggest brands, Peter Moore has been on the front lines of the sneaker wars, the console wars and the battle for global club soccer supremacy at the helm of one of the world’s biggest clubs. This story of the epic journey of a publican’s son, who began his professional life as a physical education teacher in North Wales before risking it all to become an immigrant to the United States seeking better life opportunities, is a quintessential lesson in what’s possible when a motivated person can leverage personal assets and accompany them with an indefatigable can-do attitude. Moore traces a career that includes senior positions at Patrick Sports Shoes, Reebok, Sega, Xbox, EA and Liverpool FC, collecting along the way the hard lessons gleaned from valiant challenger brands, as well as personal insights acquired learning the landscape of each new industry he encountered. Over the span of a tumultuous era, he evolved from humble shoe salesman selling cleats out of the trunk of a Toyota Camry to the Chief Executive Officer of Liverpool Football Club, at a time when LFC were champions of everything and everywhere. With vivid reflections and candid confessions on an imperfect personal life, Moore takes the reader through the twists and turns—and inevitable good fortune— of successful spells in the high-stakes worlds of athletic footwear and apparel, as well as the challenge of a massive career change to the video-game industry at 44 years of age. Over the next two decades, he would be widely acknowledged as a legendary pioneer and figurehead in an industry that has become a $200 billion entertainment behemoth. Then, in a third act befitting his life in full, he finally returned to the city of birth to take on an entirely new challenge, becoming the CEO of Liverpool FC, the football club that he first saw play—and immediately fell in love with—in 1959. Along the way there are insights on how he evolved both personally and professionally, retaining the best aspects of what his TED Talk described as “The Power of Scouseness,” and put aside nagging doubts of imposter syndrome, to emerge with a legacy of front-foot leadership and success in some of the world’s most competitive industries.

This book considers how art actually works, how the various art forms connect with the world of ordinary human experience. Many books approach the subject from the top down, through topics such as the nature of beauty, the meaning of art, aesthetic judgement, and so on. The present book examines the subject from the ground up, so to speak, showing how the creation and appreciation of art spring from innate human needs and capacities. What we call ‘the arts’ emerge organically from the habitual activities through which human beings represent the world to themselves and others. Artistic representation, always more than mere imitation, is a reaching for the spirit of a subject, a revealing of the implicit, a refreshing of the overly familiar. A key idea is that art is representation through convention – that artistic conventions, far from inhibiting the work of the artist, are vital to artistic creativity.

“Gripping . . . Vibrant . . . A wonderfully absorbing and stimulating book.” —Sarah Bakewell, NBCC Award–winning author of How to Live and Humanly Possible “[A] rollicking account . . . The book’s compulsive readability is a tribute to Moore’s skill at cracking open the pre-revolutionary period.” —Charles Arrowsmith, The Washington Post A spirited group biography that explores the origins of the most iconic words in American history, and the remarkable transatlantic context from which they emerged. The most famous phrase in American history once looked quite different. “The preservation of life, & liberty, & the pursuit of happiness” was how Thomas Jefferson put it in the first draft of the Declaration, before the first ampersand was scratched out, along with “the preservation of.” In a statement as pithy—and contested—as this, a small deletion matters. And indeed, that final, iconizing revision was the last in a long chain of revisions stretching across the Atlantic and back. The precise contours of these three rights have never been pinned down—and yet in making these words into rights, Jefferson reified the hopes (and debates) not only of a group of rebel-statesmen but also of an earlier generation of British thinkers who could barely imagine a country like the United States of America. Peter Moore’s Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness tells the true story of what may be the most successful import in US history: the “American dream.” Centered on the friendship between Benjamin Franklin and the British publisher William Strahan, and featuring figures including the cultural giant Samuel Johnson, the ground-breaking historian Catharine Macaulay, the firebrand politician John Wilkes, and revolutionary activist Thomas Paine, this book looks at the generation that preceded the Declaration in 1776. Everyone, it seemed, had “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” on their minds; Moore shows why, and reveals how these still-nascent ideals made their way across an ocean and started a revolution. Includes 16 pages of black-and-white images

England in the year 2048 and tanks and troops are guarding the gates of the Houses of Parliament. With the help of prickly centenarian Eric Blair, 17-year-old Winnie Smith takes on the might of the 'liberal progressive' government led by Rose Cromwell, the nation's first black female prime minister overseeing an ever-more dictatorial regime, where free speech is an act of treason and trolls openly cancel and publicly vilify neighbours on giant television screens on every street corner. With more than a passing homage to the genius George Orwell, 2048: Demockracy envisages a nation taking to the streets either in the form of organised local vigilante militias who enforce their own summary justice while the police focus on any perceived 'hate crime', or the protesters determined to fight back to the death, if necessary, against a woman who demands they call her 'Mother'. First of three stories written during Covid lockdown, all interlinked. 2048: Demockracy. A teenage girl and a centenarian take on the might of Britain's 'progressive' Orwellian government where you can be impris- oned for your thoughts. Brass. A graphic erotic story of an international high-class hooker's dangerous liaisons. The Reluctant Assassin. The new 007 is a mother of twins on the trail of a megalomaniac bent on world domination via mobile phones.

Slut-shamed on the internet five minutes after losing her virginity at the age of 14 in the school toilets, Delphine carves out a career as a very high-class escort, determined that all men must pay, one way or another. This is the opening to Brass, a highly-charged erotic book about a beautiful 20-year-old's highly lucrative romp through her life, with all its ups and downs. She has a cold professional approach to her vocation, with all its deadly, brutal consequences of rape and ultimate humiliation. In the darkness of a hospital ward, Alex Godliman, a brilliant blind physiotherapist, fights for the life of a little girl stricken with cystic fibrosis, who catches covid. He uses controversial, unorthodox methods to fight for her life, which pits him against the National Health Service. Both these committed people have forgone love in the driven pursuit of their careers. Will they ever find it?

The medical profession and criminal law have worked together over the millennia, from the Ancient Egyptians to the present day. Doctors have been asked to interpret wounds since antiquity. In From Wounded Fairies to Sweet Fanny Adams Dr. Peter Moore looks at how doctors got involved in crime, examining the accused or checking injuries, dating from the Edwin Smith papyrus, written in ancient Egypt in about 1600 BC which lists 48 cases involving wounds. He reveals how it was illegal to kill or maim a fairy in the time of Henry III, and how the Tudors and Stuarts didn't bother with police and doctors, but just boiled criminals. Charting the development of forensic science over the centuries, Dr. Peter Moore explains how the Police medical service gradually became more structured by the mid Nineteenth century, with the introduction of a Chief Surgeon and several Divisional Surgeons, caring for officers and providing medical care to prisoners.

Many of us, proponents and critics alike, commonly make assumptions about religion. We may presume that religion is mainly about having beliefs or being good, or that it is concerned with spiritual rather than material issues, or that religious ideas and practices are meant to be somehow timeless. Such views, Peter Moore argues, work only to obscure the truth that religion is essentially humanity’s quest to become fully human. This enlightening exposition questions our very understanding of faith and contends that religions should remain open to reinventing themselves, both practically and intellectually, rediscovering neglected traditions and finding new ways forward. Written with subtlety and passion, this book gets to the heart of ongoing debates about the validity and purpose of religion.

In this thought-provoking book, Peter Moore examines the often overlooked issues concerning human mortality, the fragile ways in which the dead can be said to “live on” in earthly terms: through their children, their work, the memories of others, their possessions, and even their bodies. Such earthly immortalities raise a host of fascinating questions about our attitudes toward life, and toward the world we leave behind us when we die. To what extent does the meaning we find in our lives depend upon the assumption there will always be a new generation to continue the human adventure? What would it be like if science were able to extend life indefinitely, and is this something already enshrined in the doctrine of reincarnation? Can we solve our anxieties about mortality by learning that life is worth living precisely because we do not live forever? In a generous and eloquent account, these and more are the questions Earthly Immortalities seeks to answer.

A collection of personal experiences that falls outside the scope of normal logical explanation regarding the experiences that we all have but are usually afraid to speak about or reveal publicly. The true stories recorded in this book offer an insight in an amusing way into events and experiences currently unexplainable by conventional logic yet have its basis in human reality and experience. It suggests communication between various units of consciousness not based within the camouflage structure of physical reality or native to the environment of earth. It offers validation of the experiences native to many individuals who would normally be afraid or ashamed to publicly disclose many of their own similar experiences for fear of being ridiculed, embarrassed, or stigmatized.

This book primarily deals with highlighting the existence, power, and function of the subconscious mind and its relationship to the manufacture of personal reality. It emphasizes the working of the sub-conscious mind is creating all aspects of our health and personal experience. It delves into the relationship of our thoughts, beliefs, and expectations in relation to our personal accomplishments or defeats and presents suggestions for managing personal experiences and initiating self-transformation. It highlights the impact of our individual and collective thoughts, principally as it relates to our acceptance of certain established beliefs, which we hold as facts about reality. It offers an understanding of the practice of self-hypnosis as one of the alternative and effective medium for treating with a variety of personal dilemmas and for removing obstacles and impediments to success.

Poetry. Taking its title from a song by the Memphis musician Harlan T. Bobo, ZIPPERS AND JEANS tells the story of a man who upon having his heart broken finds that he can commune with inanimate objects. At regular intervals, the real world leans in on our loveless speaker, cajoling him through the language of Anglo- Saxon riddles, plying him with snapshots of the past, pushing him on his search for the simple life. Along the way, the reader will find a series of short essays on the aesthetics of vernacular culture, which focus on topics such as mass-produced musical instruments, professional wrestling, and the history of deadpan comedy. Like the story of unrequited love, each of these topics relate back to the central trajectory of the book, a descent into the cultural mythology of Memphis.

Where are the dead? What are they doing? What kind of a process is dying? What relationships exist among the dead themselves, and between the dead and those in the world they have left behind? Modern philosophers argue that the idea of disembodied survival - to which many believers pay lip service - is incoherent, and that there can be evidence neither for nor against something incoherent. By contrast, this book argues, the idea of an embodied survival (albeit a form of embodiment differing from our present embodiment) makes perfect sense in itself and fits much better with the alleged evidence for post-mortem survival. Exploring post-mortem survival, Where are the Dead? uses a variety of empirical data, alongside mythological, legendary and purely fictional material, to illustrate how the less familiar idea of embodied post-mortem survival might actually ’work’ in some real afterlife environment. By asking questions about the nature and whereabouts of the afterlife, and about what it might be like to be dead, the book explores themes nowadays relatively neglected even in disciplines explicitly concerned with ideas about death, dying and life after death.

Based on 30 years experience this book gives an insight into the day to day work of a Police Surgeon in Devon, UK. Each chapter concentrates on a specific area such as murder, sexual offences, mental illness or illegal drugs; how do we ensure basic human rights; how do we ensure people are fit to be detained and interviewed? It is filled with genuine cases; modified to protect patient confidentially. But it is also a personal book describing how he fell into the work, almost by accident. This is the real action which occurs at every UK local police station; where medicine meets at law. It will prove a fascinating read for anyone interested in real crime or considering a career in forensic nursing, medicine or the police.

A history of weather forecasting, and an animated portrait of the nineteenth-century pioneers who made it possible By the 1800s, a century of feverish discovery had launched the major branches of science. Physics, chemistry, biology, geology, and astronomy made the natural world explicable through experiment, observation, and categorization. And yet one scientific field remained in its infancy. Despite millennia of observation, mankind still had no understanding of the forces behind the weather. A century after the death of Newton, the laws that governed the heavens were entirely unknown, and weather forecasting was the stuff of folklore and superstition. Peter Moore''s The Weather Experiment is the account of a group of naturalists, engineers, and artists who conquered the elements. It describes their travels and experiments, their breakthroughs and bankruptcies, with picaresque vigor. It takes readers from Irish bogs to a thunderstorm in Guanabara Bay to the basket of a hydrogen balloon 8,500 feet over Paris. And it captures the particular bent of mind—combining the Romantic love of Nature and the Enlightenment love of Reason—that allowed humanity to finally decipher the skies.

Quels sont les trois plus grands tueurs de l'histoire de l'humanité ? La guerre ? La famine ? Les catastrophes naturelles ? Non, il s'agit de la grippe, de la peste et du sida. Aujourd'hui, notre monde moderne favorise la prolifération des maladies, voire l'émergence de nouvelles maladies comme Ebola ou encore la réapparition de vieilles maladies telle la dengue. Voici un livre simple et concis qui présente 50 maladies infectieuses parmi les plus virulentes. Le lecteur y trouvera des informations sur l'histoire de chaque maladie, sa répartition dans le monde, les troubles qu'elle provoque, les traitements possibles et quelques conseils pratiques.

This rich compendium examines revolutionary advances in mathematics, physics, science, chemistry, biology and medicine by revealing the lives of the people responsible for them. Just as each generation of new scientific pioneers stands upon the shoulders of the giants who came before them, these biographies build upon each other and tell a collective tale of the development of breakthroughs like the X-ray, radio waves, the Big Bang Theory, and evolution. Some of the most famous scientists of all time are featured--like Newton, Mendel, Curie, and Einstein--as well as lesser known but no less influential and innovative figures.

A book you''ve all been waiting for. From the people who brought you planet Earth. The Earth which is Made of Love and Love Alone Together. The beginning of the revelation of the secret history of God.

A paradigm-shifting diet plan that allows you to eat anything you want, as much as you want—and still strip away 20, 40, 60 pounds, or more. After conducting extensive research at the Salk Institute and the National Institute on Aging, poring over copious amounts of new research in intermittent fasting, and engaging 2,000 people for a test panel, bestselling authors David Zinczenko and Peter Moore determined that people can lose remarkable amounts of weight eating the foods they like best—as long as they eat within a set 8-hour time period. Fasting is, of course, an ancient spiritual and health practice, but it''s also a way to sidestep many of the ills of the modern world—including diabetes, heart disease, and cognitive impairment. Zinczenko and Moore demonstrate how simply observing this timed-eating strategy, even just three days a week, will reset your metabolism so that you can enter fat-burning mode first thing in the morning—and stay there all day long. And by focusing on eight critical, nutrient-rich Powerfoods, you can build in a second layer of protection against Alzheimer''s, heart disease, and even the common cold. In the book, you will find motivating strategies, delicious recipes, and an 8-minute workout routine to maximize calorie burn. The 8-Hour Diet promises to strip away unwanted pounds and give you the focus and willpower you need to reach your goals for weight loss and life.

A friend writes HERE IS THE MEMOIR of a man who, more than any other, has promoted the witness of classical Anglican Evangelicalism in Episcopal Church. It is his personal faith journey, written with remarkable candor and sensitivity about the people and culture that shaped him: his parents and family, childhood experiences of gospel teaching; his education at St. Marks School, Yale University and Oxford and the spiritual challenges of growing up with material privilege in sophisticated society. Here you will read of his experience of Billy Graham, his meeting John Scott and Eric Nash, the eccentric clergyman who started intensive Christian groups throughout English Public Schools, feeding solidly biblically orthodox young man into every corner of British life. This was the model that was to fire his vision of an American expression- Fellowship of Christians in Universities and Schools- and helped lead him to become a foremost apologist for the credibility and power of the biblical worldview. Here you will also read of his marriage to Sandra Clark and of their children. There are so many of us who are greatly indebted to Pter Moore who continues to inspire the faithful leadership that is redeeming the American Church. ALDEN M. HATHAWAY Bishop of Pittsburgh, Retired

Poetry Chapbook

By global superpower standards, what happened in Cyprus during the summer of 1974 was a mere miscalculation. It was, however, a disaster for thousands of ordinary Cypriots, both Greek and Turk. This account of those times is exceptional because it is written by an artist who is both a detached outside observer and a passionate insider who cares very much for the well-being of all Cypriots. This book does not focus on the politics of a now-divided island or apportion blame for its current state or dwell relentlessly on the suffering of its refugees. Rather it tells the stories of a few ordinary people caught up in the catastrophic events of that summer, of how they lost their homes but not their dignity and how they started to rebuild their lives with determination and courage. As such it has a universal relevance going far beyond the people of Cyprus. This short book, enriched with more than forty contemporary photographs, is a compulsive read and almost impossible to put down.
