hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Softcover. Zustand: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Laufen ist heute eine weitverbreitete Massenbewegung, doch seine moderne Form ist relativ neu. Thor Gootas erzahlt die faszinierende Geschichte des Laufens, das einst primar zur Fortbewegung und Sicherung des Uberlebens diente. Im Laufe der Zeit entwickelte es sich zu einem Bestandteil religioser Rituale, politischer Mittel, sportlicher Disziplin und einem Weg der Selbstfindung. Laufen spiegelt Gesellschaften und Lebensstile wider. Diese Kulturgeschichte des Laufens ist ein eindrucksvoller Marathon, der sowohl fur Laufer als auch fur Interessierte spannend ist. Der Autor beleuchtet die kulturhistorischen und philosophischen Aspekte des Laufens und berichtet von Konigen, Pharaonen, Monchen, antiken Athleten und professionellen Laufern der Inkas. Er thematisiert mittelalterliche Boten, Nacktlaufe im 18. Jahrhundert in England, die Bedeutung des Laufens wahrend der Franzosischen Aufklarung, deutsche Gesundheitserziehung und den modernen Wettkampfsport, in dem Laufer und Sprintstars zu Ikonen geworden sind. Gotaas' Forschungen erstrecken sich uber den gesamten Globus und durch die Kulturgeschichte des Menschen, und bieten eine unterhaltsame und informative Reise durch die Jahrhunderte, die nicht nur Laufsportler fesselt.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Gebrauchsspuren; Leichte Verformung / umgeknickte Seiten; Leichte Verschmutzung / Farbtonveranderung. Clovek nie je najrychlejsim tvorom planety, ale jeho vytrvalost mu umoznuje prekonavat ine druhy na dlhe vzdialenosti. Behanie, ktore bolo v minulosti evolucnou vyhodou, je dnes oblubenou aktivitou. Autor odhaluje fascinujuce pribehy a myty v historii behania, ako napriklad neexistenciu dokazu o smrti greckeho vojaka Feidippida po behu z Maratonu do Aten. V minulosti bezali nielen profesionalni bezci, ale aj krali a faraoni. Zatial co v starovekom Grecku sa bezalo nahe, v dvadsiatom storoci museli zeny bojovat za pravo zucastnit sa maratonov. Rozpravanie sa tiahne od pradavnych cias po sucasnost, zahrnajuc mezopotamskeho krala, Vikingov pretekajucich so zvieratami, nudistov, mnichov, behajucich pospiatky a inkaskych profesionalnych bezcov, ako aj Emila Zatopka a zvlastnosti behania v komunistickom bloku. Najviac informacii pochadza z poslednych dvoch storoci, ktore tvoria hlavnu cast knihy. Autor skuma, preco boli Svedi pred vyse polstorocim povazovani za ,Kenanov" svojej doby a posuny v ludskych vykonoch, pricom v sucasnosti ocakavame menej rekordov, ale viac bezcov. THOR GOTAAS (1965) je norsky etnolog a spisovatel, ktory sa zameriava na okrajove skupiny a dejiny sportu. Jeho dielo o behani vyslo v patnastich krajinach.…
