Notational Analysis of Sport
Published in Paperback by Routledge mot E F & N Spon (March, 1999)
Author: M. Hughes
Average review score:

Best Book in this subject
This book is a MUST for those interested in this area of knowledge. Written by 2 authorities, it is well organized, easy to read, and with a deep treatment of this subject, which is both a developing area in sports and one of the most difficult to find sources for learning. Well organized, it starts with some introductory chapters, where the theory behind this subject is outlines, together with the starting blocks to build any system for almost any sport. Then it follows a series of chapters where planning, developing and designing notationaal analysis are learned with practical "real life" examples for most sports. The authors describe very well the different types of notational analysis systems (hand, computer, video systems) with pros and cons of each one. The book is full of examples. Its only drawback is that in dealing with dessigning computer systems, they are based in old software, mostly BASIC language. After (and while) reading it one can find it is a full source of practical knowledge, most of the ideas are ready to use in most cases, and the reader will learn all what is necessary to develop notational analysis. One can only feel proud for buying it. For all interested in the science of notational analysis this is definitevely a Bible

Nutty, the Movie Star
Published in Library Binding by Bt Bound (October, 1999)
Author: Dean Hughes
Average review score:

A Good book for 5th through 7th graders (or anyone else)
This book explores the way young children feel about popularity. When Nutty gets a part in a movie he gets back the popularity he had lost by evesdropping on the girls bathroom. Stemming from this new image as "movie star" his twenty four hour trip to Hollywood where he saw only one celebrity (one from a dog food commercial) suddenly becomes a Hollywood free for all where he "saw" famous people, lunched at the most famous resturants and stayed at fabulous hotels. His popularity's back and he's feeling good . . . . until his bluff is called. The way this charming and funny story unfolds is yet to be discovered inside the covers.


The Obstructed Path: French Social Thought in the Years of Desperation 1930-1960
Published in Paperback by Transaction Pub (October, 2001)
Authors: H. Stuart Hughes and Stanley Hoffmann
Average review score:

The intellectual history of French Thoughts in the 20th C
The Structuralism asserts that text tells itself and there is no place the author dwell on. With no doubt, the text we read is not the one the author wrote or intended. It's the text reconstructed on our own. According to the Structuralism, the intellectual history is the waste of time and effort. For this field traces the background of the text: what was the zeitgeist of author; what kind of influences could be spotted in the text.
In fact, text could be read in itself with no background knowledge of the text. But I suspect that kind of reading is not sufficient to depict the overall picture of the text. We always adopt or reject some part of text or another. I think such treatment of text could be done effectively only when the overall points of the text are settled down. The text is not isolated from the environment. The text itself is some kind of social action. If not, why do we write the text at all? Writing could not be a simple dabbling, but a painstaking endeavor. It's written to communicate with others. So the understanding some text should be the knowing where was the text located, in other word, the readers of text. Reading the intellectual history is, therefore, definitely helpful to understand the text.
Hughes is the right person to write such a history. He is the master in the intellectual history. this book is one of the trilogy which covers the modern Western thoughts. This book is the intellectual history of the French thoughts from the 1930s to the 1960s. This period is the cradle of Annal school, Existentialism, French phenomenology and Structuralism. Hughes argues that those schools were obsessed with the changed relationship of the intellectuals with society. As we can see from French enlightenment and the Dreyfus affair, French intellectuals enjoyed the influences over public sphere. Since the 17th C. French intellectuals didn't have any doubt about their role of steering the France. They even thought they set the direction of the Western civilization. For example, the very basic principles of democracy, liberty and equality were manifested in the French Revolution, and the very conception of rationality was formalized by Descartes. But World War I cast doubt over those doctrines. And it was commensurate to the suspicion of the role of intellectuals. It seems that the postwar West did not follow the principles they proclaimed. The Fascism was the good example. French thoughts of this period like Existentialism, Structuralism and so on are offspring of this intellectual situation. Hughes illustrates the circumstances they faced in the graphic way. And better, his recapping of major thinkers of those schools are skillful. I recommend this book to who want to understand those schools better.
