NATIONAL BESTSELLER“The stories in this book make for a fascinating and remarkably complete pantheon of just about every common despair and every joy related to game development.” — Rami Ismail, cofounder of Vlambeer and developer of Nuclear ThroneDeveloping video games—hero''s journey or fool''s errand?

Of Battenberg, Bombay and Blag is a blood, sweat and beers switch hit across the decades with first-hand accounts and opinion pieces on club cricket, Test matches, the Hundred and IPL. With a decade of club cricket under his belt, Vic Mills heads to Australia in search of adventure only to suffer a severe bout of sledging, but he is one of the few to witness World Series Cricket. With Bodyline almost forgotten, he turns out for the Bar & Bench of Melbourne, the Gentlemen of Ballarat and (his only cap) an Australian Embassy XI in Manila. Chaos ensues in the 1980s as he blags his way into Test grounds around Australia with a building industry union card doubling as a press pass. In the 1990s, he becomes a reluctant reporter, accredited to cricket''s press corps courtesy of the Times of India and Jakarta Post. Fast forward to 2009 and Vic is the driving force behind Project Front Foot, a decade-long venture to create a cricket academy for the children of South Asia''s largest slum. Today, the project supports refugee cricketers in Europe.

In his eagerly anticipated, deeply researched new book, Schreier trains his investigative eye on the volatility of the video game industry and the resilience of the people who work in it.The business of videogames is both a prestige industry and an opaque one.

Videohry jsou napínavé a srdcervoucí. A co teprve jejich vývoj! Počítačové hry v současnosti představují největší zábavní průmysl, v němž se každoročně otáčejí miliardy dolarů. Ale ať už vznikají v obrovských produkčních studiích, nadnárodních korporacích, malých nezávislých týmech, či u jednotlivců, do herního podnikání vždy vstupuje nevypočitatelný lidský a tvůrčí faktor. Téměř za každou hrou a aplikací se skrývá drama, které občas nabývá až antických rozměrů. Úspěšná studia znenadání zanikají, vývojáře terorizuje diktátorský šéf, slibované peníze ne a ne přijít, korporátní strategie připomíná absurdní divadlo, herní koncept se v půlce produkce ukáže jako nesmyslný. Podobné příběhy za úspěšnými hrami, jako jsou Bioshock Infinite, Dead Space nebo World of Warcraft, vypráví v knize Press Reset reportér Jason Schreier. Líčí osudy lidí, které práce na počítačových hrách dohnala na hranici finančních i psychických možností, a ptá se, zda je videoherní průmysl v současné podobě vůbec udržitelný.

Napínavá reportáž o temném osudu slavného herního studiaSpolečnost Blizzard Entertainment bývala pro každého fanouška videoher synonymem dokonalosti. Firmu založilo na počátku devadesátých let pár kamarádů čerstvě po studiích a už o pár roků později ji znal celý svět díky dnešním klasikám, jako je série Diablo nebo World of Warcraft. Značka si ale získala srdce hráčů především díky vývojářské zásadě, že radost z hraní stojí nade vším ostatním. Nadšenecký projekt se postupně proměnil v impérium s tisíci zaměstnanci a miliardovými rozpočty, které časem pohltila ještě větší korporace Activision. Autonomie studia neměla mít dlouhého trvání — stačilo jediné vážné škobrtnutí a jeden zrušený projekt, aby mateřská firma začala Blizzard rozkládat zevnitř. Přišly špatné hry, nezvládnuté PR, hromadné propouštění. Z Blizzardu se stalo synonymum úpadku. Jason Schreier v knize Hrát fér vychází z rozhovorů s více než třemi stovkami současných i bývalých zaměstnanců a vypráví strhující příběh firmy, která byla vždy něčím víc než pouhým herním studiem.

Blood, Bullets, and Bones provides young readers with a fresh and fascinating look at the ever-evolving science of forensics. Since the introduction of DNA testing, forensic science has been in the forefront of the public’s imagination, thanks especially to popular television shows like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. But forensic analysis has been practiced for thousands of years. Ancient Chinese detectives studied dead bodies for signs of foul play, and in Victorian England, officials used crime scene photography and criminal profiling to investigate the Jack the Ripper murders. In the intervening decades, forensic science has evolved to use the most cutting-edge, innovative techniques and technologies.In this book, acclaimed author Bridget Heos uses real-life cases to tell the history of modern forensic science, from the first test for arsenic poisoning to fingerprinting, firearm and blood spatter analysis, DNA evidence, and all the important milestones in between. By turns captivating and shocking, Blood, Bullets, and Bones demonstrates the essential role forensic science has played in our criminal justice system.

Political instability, poverty, climate change, and the insatiable appetite for cheap labour all fuel clandestine movement across borders. As those borders harden, the demand for smugglers who aid migrants across them increases every year. Yet the real lives and work of smugglers - or coyotes, or guides, as they are often known by the migrants who hire their services - are only ever reported on from a distance, using tired tropes and stereotypes, often depicted as boogie men and violent warlords.

Based on extensive research and original interviews, this intimate biography reveals the complexities of Gandolfini's character, his rise to fame, and his lasting impact on television and film.“A riveting look inside the mind of a towering talent, this is a must for Sopranos fans."―Publishers Weekly"A fast-moving, entertaining bio of a Hollywood mensch."―Kirkus In Gandolfini, critic and historian Jason Bailey traces the twinned stories of the man and the unforgettable roles he played. Gandolfini’s roots were working class, raised in northern New Jersey as the son of Italian immigrants, and acting was something he loved for a long time before he could see it as a career. It wasn’t until he was well into his bohemian twenties that he dedicated himself to a life on the stage and screen. Bailey traces his rise, from bit parts to character roles he enlivened with menace and vulnerability, to Tony Soprano, the breakout role that would make him a legend, and onto a post-Sopranos career in which he continued to challenge himself and his audience. More than a decade after his sudden passing, James Gandolfini still exerts a powerful pull on television and film enthusiasts around the world. His charismatic portrayal of complex, flawed, ...
