This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 7 - 15 working days Bad ideas happen to anyone, but truly awful ideas live on forever. Some bad ideas are infamous (remember New Coke or the XFL?), while others have managed to slip under the radar of public consciousness-like the in-car record player. But just because we've forgotten a bad idea doesn't make it any less horrible. We all cringed when Michael Jordon announced he was leaving basketball for baseball, but did you know that Whoopi Goldberg made a never-released $35-million buddy cop movie where her partner was an animatronic dinosaur named Theodore Rex? Part history, part comedy, Worst Ideas Ever takes a look back and explores some of the biggest flops of all time. They say hindsight is 20/20, but it's hard to believe nobody saw these coming. This book delves into the history of disaster, taking you through failed marketing campaigns, terrible pop icon projects, disastrous corporate decisions, and more, with the authors reviewing every funny detail of what went wrong. Worst Ideas Ever shows what separates the merely bad ideas from the terrible ones. Features Summary Bad ideas happen to anyone, but truly awful ideas live on forever.

It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 7 - 15 working days In any sport, whenever an official takes the field, court, ice, ring, or pitch, they do so with a bright red bull's-eye on their backs. For even with their great accuracy and passion for the game, they do make errors--occasionally, great big fat ones--that change the tide of sports history. In The Worst Call Ever, keepers of truth and enlightenment, sportswriters Kyle Garlett and Patrick O'Neal, expose the most injurious mistakes and desecrations, document their lasting damage--which to some wronged parties has evolved into a condition akin to post-traumatic stress disorder--and hopefully become the soothing balm of reconciliation. Each piece details the play in question and examines the players and stakes involved, the scope of the injustice, and the path of change that was often its result. Garlett and O'Neal cover mishaps in all sports, from the four Major Leagues to golf and auto racing to even curling, in this fascinating look at the worst calls in sports history. Features Summary After years of watching athletes and teams have wins and championships stolenfrom them and their fans because of incompetent officials, it is the authors'goal to document these awful moments.. Author Kyle Garlett Publisher HarperCollins Publishers Release date 20080513 Pages 256 ISBN 0-06-125137-2 ISBN 13 978-0-06-125137-5

Author: Alan Axelrod Publisher: Sterling (2008) ISBN-10: 1402797788 ISBN-13: 9781402797781 Condition: Very Good. The cover has some rubbing and wear to edges and corners. Else a very good copy. Binding: Softcover Pages: 342 Dimensions: 15.1 x 2.5 x 22.7 cm +++ by Alan Axelrod +++ Using the same engrossing anecdotal format that proved so popular in Profiles in Audacity, bestselling author Alan Axelrod turns to the dark side of audacious decision-making and explores history's most tragic errors. While Axelrod looks at the hopelessly dumb and the overtly evil, the main focus is on smart people who had the best of intentions - but whose plans went disastrously wrong. The 35 compelling, often poignant stories include: the sailing of the Titanic; Edward Bernays's 1929 campaign to recruit women smokers; Neville Chamberlain's appeasement of the Nazis and Ken Lay's deception with Enron. These are cautionary tales - albeit with exquisite twists ranging from acerbic to horrific.

You will learn more about human nature than in any other book I can think of' Henry Marsh THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER / WINNER OF THE 2017 LA TIMES BOOK PRIZE 'One of the best scientist-writers of our time' Oliver Sacks Why do human beings behave as they do? We are capable of savage acts of violence but also spectacular feats of kindness: is one side of our nature destined to win out over the other? Every act of human behaviour has multiple layers of causation, spiralling back seconds, minutes, hours, days, months, years, even centuries, right back to the dawn of time and the origins of our species. In the epic sweep of history, how does our biology affect the arc of war and peace, justice and persecution? How have our brains evolved alongside our cultures? This is the exhilarating story of human morality and the science underpinning the biggest question of all: what makes us human? Features Summary ***'Awe-inspiring...
