**THE FIRST AND ONLY BIOGRAPHY OF DUTCH FORMULA ONE WUNDERKIND MAX
VERSTAPPEN, NOW DOUBLE WORLD CHAMPION** Few drivers have ever
shaken up Formula 1 in quite the same way as Max Verstappen.
Already the youngest competitor in F1 history, having made his
breakthrough in 2015 aged just 17, his debut race for Red Bull at
the 2016 Spanish Grand Prix saw him become the youngest driver ever
to win a race, achieve a podium finish or even lead a lap. As the
son of F1 legend Jos and elite-level kart driver Sophie Kumpen, Max
was destined to be a racing driver. And since that
headline-grabbing debut, he has continued to make an indelible
impression on the sport, courting criticism and plaudits in equal
measure. Sports journalist James Gray seeks to understand the
outspoken nature and aggressive driving style that make Verstappen
a must-watch before, during and after races, and why his Dutch
fans, who turn up to cheer him on in their orange-clad droves, are
quite so fanatical.
James Gray and Ulrich Desselberger have assembled a comprehensive
collection of established and cutting-edge methods for studying and
illuminating the structure, molecular biology, pathogenesis,
epidemiology, and prevention in animal models of infection with
rotaviruses, an important cause of infant morbidity and mortality.
Presented by experts in the fields of animal and human rotavirus
infections and rotavirus vaccine research, these readily
reproducible methods detail molecular and other modern techniques,
and include relevant background information and various notes to
ensure reproducible and robust results. Authoritative and
up-to-date, Rotaviruses: Methods and Protocols offers researchers
today's benchmark compendium of experimental methods for the
investigation of this medically significant virus.

This book offers a novel framework for describing and understanding
student identity via the central concept of "genre practices",
developed through an empirical focus on multimodality within the
genre of English as a medium of instruction (EMI) undergraduate
presentations. The author draws on interviews with undergraduate
psychology students and recordings of their presentations to argue
that by engaging in the multimodal practices of classroom
presentations, presenters (re)produce both the genre and their
identities as students. The resulting theory of student identity is
widely applicable to tertiary settings, and the methodology
described is applicable to the study of practices and identity in a
range of other classroom genres. The book will therefore be of
interest not only to researchers in EMI and TESOL settings, but
also any tertiary-level educational practitioners whose courses
include presentations.
From James Gray, author of the bestselling Max Verstappen, comes
the very first biography of Lewis Hamilton's designated successor
George Russell, published to mark the British Grand Prix. From
dominating the karting tracks of East Anglia to the top of the
podium in Formula 3 and Formula 2, George Russell has now fully
established himself as a rising Formula 1 star. After cutting his
teeth as a driver with Williams, in 2022 he signed a lucrative
contract with Mercedes, highlighting the extent of his raw talent.
Driving for Mercedes, Russell has been confirmed as the designated
successor to none other than Lewis Hamilton. As Hamilton's
heir-apparent, will this protégé manage to follow in the
footsteps of the greatest F1 driver of all time? Sports journalist
and author of Max Verstappen James Gray traces how George Russell
has been setting the racing track alight since the age of seven and
how he is now destined to become the successor to the crown of
British motor racing.
The long-standing parliamentary convention known as the 'Royal
Prerogative' has always allowed Prime Ministers to take the country
to war without any formal approval by Parliament. The dramatic vote
against any military strike on Syria on 29 August 2013 blew that
convention wide open, and risks hampering Great Britain's role as a
force for good in the world in the future. Will MPs ever vote for
war? Perhaps not - and this book proposes a radical solution to the
resulting national emasculation. By writing the theory of a Just
War (its causes, conduct and ending) into law, Parliament would
allow the Prime Minister to act without hindrance, thanks not to a
Royal Prerogative, but to a parliamentary one.
