你真的會跑步嗎？ ●你以為人天生就會跑，所以不需要學習就可以跑步嗎？ ●你以為跑步的里程數只要累積得多，跑步技術就會變好嗎？ ●你以為要跑得更快，身體就必須使勁全力才能達成嗎？ ●你以為跑步的人到最後一定會和運動傷害當朋友嗎？ 大部分的跑步書籍在開頭就先預設跑步並非一項需要學習的技術，而只是需要不斷操練的運動。這些書籍著重在體能訓練的知識──要跑多少、強度多高、如何交叉訓練、該吃什麼等等。這些當然是很重要的知識，但沒有人討論最核心的議題──如何跑步。 尼可拉斯．羅曼諾夫博士的「姿勢跑法」是他25年來研究人類動作與開發跑步技術成果。有很多原本因慣性傷害準備退出跑步生涯的優秀跑者，在學到他所開發的跑步技術後，現在跑步都不會痛了，而且跑得竟然比二十年前更快、更不費力。《跑步，該怎麼跑？》要從根本徹底改變你的跑步技術，教你如何用「姿勢跑法」不費力的跑得更快、更遠，而且再也不會受傷！ ◆掌握「姿勢跑法」的關鍵技術，包括： ．腳呈Ｓ形姿勢。 ．不能以腳跟著地，要以腳掌前緣著地。 ．轉化重力為身體往前進的力量。 ．注意力放在抬腳動作，而非腳往下踩的動作。 ．跑得快是因為步頻高，不是因為步伐大。

Eoin Colfer's The Wish List is a bitter yet rip-roaringly funny tale of two wayward teenagers on the road to hell--literally. The story opens with Meg Finn and Belch Brennan, two bad kids on the block, breaking in to a pensioner's flat. At the very last minute Meg reneges on the deal and tries to break for freedom, leaving the aged Lowrie McCall screaming with the pain inflicted by Belch's blood-thirsty hound. Backed into a corner by Belch and a shotgun, Meg pleads with Belch to call an ambulance and save the old man's life. Instead he pulls the trigger and in a split second of evil and madness the bullet hits a gas tank and knocks Meg's soul out of her skin, catapulting her spirit along a vast tunnel on the way to some particularly shiny, pearly gates. Meanwhile, Beelzebub is fretting. His boss was expecting two souls, and although Belch (in his new incarnation as a dribbling, growling, red-eyed dog-boy) took the correct turn in the tunnel, he's rather miffed that Meg found her way to the beautifully buffed Pearlies and an interview with Saint Peter and his rather complicated points system. So, the archangel and the demon do a deal, and Meg is given a chance to redeem herself. If she fails on her mission to help Lowrie McCall work his way through his Wish List before he dies, then she too will be heading south to join the boy-band members, the mime artists, Belch and the world's computer boffins in fiery damnation... The Wish List was first published in Ireland in 2000, bringing with it much critical acclaim. In 2002, following the enormous and well-deserved success of the Artemis Fowl books, Eoin Colfer's publishers decided to let the rest of the world sneak a peak. And about time too. Hopelessly hopeful, immorally moral, rattling with the pain of its anti-heroine as she faces her own demons, and rib-crackingly, laugh-out-loud funny, The Wish List strikes an almost perfect balance between good, old-fashioned scruples and thoroughly modern irreverence in what is ultimately, and most importantly, a darn good read. Not for the faint-hearted, and certainly not for those who can't take a border-line sick joke every now and then, The Wish List is a divinely devilish tale for anyone who enjoys a bucket full of grit and truck load of wisecracks with their reading material. Age 10 and over, recommended particularly for older readers. --Susan Harrison. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Hidden in the heart of the old city of Barcelona is the 'cemetery of lost books', a labyrinthine library of obscure and forgotten titles long out of print. To this library, a man brings his 10-year-old son Daniel one cold morning in 1945. Daniel is allowed to choose one book from the shelves and pulls out 'La Sombra Del Viento' by Julian Carax. But as he grows up, several people seem inordinately interested in his find. Then, one night, as he is wandering the old streets once more, Daniel is approached by a figure who reminds him of a character from the book, a character who turns out to be the devil. This man is tracking down every last copy of Carax's works in order to burn them. What begins as a case of literary curiosity turns into a race to find out the truth behind the life and death of Julian Carax and to save those he left behind.
