Beer in the Snooker Club

Beer in the Snooker Club

Waguih Ghali

VINTAGE
2014
nidottu
Set amidst the turbulence of 1950s Cairo, Beer in the Snooker Club is the story of Ram Bey, an over-educated, under-ambitious young Egyptian struggling to find out where he fits in. Ram's favorite haunt is the fashionable Cairo Snooker Club, whose members strive to emulate English gentility; but his best friends are young intellectuals who devour the works of Sartre and engage in dangerous revolutionary activities to support Egyptian independence. By turns biting and comic, Beer in the Snooker Club -- the first and only book by Waguih Ghali -- became a cult classic when it was first published and remains a timeless portrait of a loveable rogue coming of age in turbulent times.

Beer and Circus

Beer and Circus

Murray Sperber

Henry Holt Company Inc
2001
nidottu
In this fascinating book, Sperber uses original research culled from students, faculty, and administrators around the country, to argue that what universities offer instead of a meaningful undergraduate education is a meager and dangerous substitute: the party scene surrounding college sports that Sperber calls "beer and circus" and which serves to keep the students happy while tuition dollars keep rolling in. He explodes cherished myths about college sports, showing, for instance, that contrary to popular belief the money coming in to universities from sports programs never makes it to academic departments. Sperber's profound re-evaluation of college sports and higher education comes straight out of today's headlines and opens our eyes to a generation of students deprived of the education they deserve.Murray Sperber has been acknowledged for years as the country's leading authority on college sports and their role in American culture. In the wake of Indiana University's decision to fire head basketball coach Bobby Knight last year, Sperber was in constant demand across the country--on television, radio, and print media--to comment on the profound and tragic impact of big-time intercollegiate athletics on higher education.

Beer in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance

Beer in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance

Richard W. Unger

University of Pennsylvania Press
2007
pokkari
The beer of today-brewed from malted grain and hops, manufactured by large and often multinational corporations, frequently associated with young adults, sports, and drunkenness-is largely the result of scientific and industrial developments of the nineteenth century. Modern beer, however, has little in common with the drink that carried that name through the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Looking at a time when beer was often a nutritional necessity, was sometimes used as medicine, could be flavored with everything from the bark of fir trees to thyme and fresh eggs, and was consumed by men, women, and children alike, Beer in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance presents an extraordinarily detailed history of the business, art, and governance of brewing. During the medieval and early modern periods beer was as much a daily necessity as a source of inebriation and amusement. It was the beverage of choice of urban populations that lacked access to secure sources of potable water; a commodity of economic as well as social importance; a safe drink for daily consumption that was less expensive than wine; and a major source of tax revenue for the state. In Beer in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, Richard W. Unger has written an encompassing study of beer as both a product and an economic force in Europe. Drawing from archives in the Low Countries and England to assemble an impressively complete history, Unger describes the transformation of the industry from small-scale production that was a basic part of housewifery to a highly regulated commercial enterprise dominated by the wealthy and overseen by government authorities. Looking at the intersecting technological, economic, cultural, and political changes that influenced the transformation of brewing over centuries, he traces how improvements in technology and in the distribution of information combined to standardize quality, showing how the process of urbanization created the concentrated markets essential for commercial production. Weaving together the stories of prosperous businessmen, skilled brewmasters, and small producers, this impressively researched overview of the social and cultural practices that surrounded the beer industry is rich in implication for the history of the period as a whole.

A guide to the haunted hostelries of Bedfordshire with an extra twist. A ghostly gazetteer listing over forty locations of reported paranormal activity in Bedfordshire's hostelries, and 'Who's There?', a compelling original ghost story by Trevor Bounford, not for the faint hearted but bound to put you in the right frame of mind for any otherworldly encounter. Explore Bedfordshire, a county with hidden depths and intriguing stories and characters. The shire's hostelries, having witnessed all manner of life and death over the centuries, offer the possibilities of mysterious encounters that will defy rational explanation. Thumb through a ghostly gazetteer listing over forty locations of reported sightings, sounds and sensations. Sightings of people from the past who were murdered, executed, who took their own life or died in a tragic accident or in war; a grieving seafaring captain, a Second World War soldier and Cavaliers from the English Civil War. Besides sailors and soldiers, there are former landlords and landladies, stable lads, nurses, ill-fated young lovers and small children struck down by fatal ailments. There are reports of illuminating orbs floating across rooms, of lights being switched off and on, of pages being turned by invisible hands, and of objects being violently thrown, elevated - or even tidied-up. Sounds of knocking, footsteps, slamming doors, of young and old voices that cry, call, sing or shout; of money being counted in the cellar and jangling coat hangers in the wardrobe. Sensations of strange energies, a tap on the shoulder or even a push in the stomach, of cold spots, warms spots, pleasant and unpleasant aromas; of anxiety and distress, and the touch of a cool hand on the forehead.

Sounds of persistent knocking, footsteps, rubbing hands, jangling keys, rattling door latches and beer tankards, of bottles clinking in the middle of the night, babies crying and of English Civil War troops amassing. Sensations of cold spots, of an unseen presence close-by and a tap on the shoulder; the odour of rotting flesh, of pipe tobacco and of lavender; vibrating beds and tugging at the blankets by unseen hands. `The Last Round' and `The Old Waterman' Enjoy two original ghost stories by Trevor Bounford. Compelling tales, not for the faint-hearted but bound to put you in the right frame of mind for strange encounters.

sidottu
Beer affects the law, and the law affects beer. The regulation of beer goes back thousands of years, and beer laws have shaped society in both obvious and unexpected ways. Beer Law provides a fun and accessible account of the complex interaction between law and beer. The book engages with a broad range of beer law topics including: • Health, • Intellectual property, • Consumer protection and unfair competition, • Contract, • Competition, • International trade, • Environment, • Tax. The book also provides a detailed description of beer, brewing, beer as a product, and the brewing industry, as well as an overview of some broad lessons from the regulation of beer. Given the importance of understanding law in context, the book also explores beer, beer culture and beer laws in more detail with a focus on Belgium, the Czech Republic, Germany, the Nordic countries, North America, and Britain and Ireland.

Beer in East Asia

Beer in East Asia

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2023
sidottu
Chambers, Nuangjamnong, and their contributors look at how the development of the beer industry in East Asia presents a unique opportunity for understanding the region’s political economy.Asia is both the world’s largest beer-consuming and beer-producing region, and the fastest growing beer market. Per-capita consumption is lower than Europe, but catching up fast. Beer consumption is also widely understood to correlate closely with economic growth and urbanization, much more so than other alcoholic beverages like spirits. With ten country case studies from both Northeast and Southeast Asia, the contributors to this volume look at the history of beer production and consumption across East Asia through a lens of historical institutionalism and political economy. In doing so they not only examine the development of the beer industry in the region but also what it tells us about the countries themselves. They ask questions such as: To what extent have state versus societal actors influenced the path of beer production? How has beer production changed? Was there a critical juncture at which beer production abruptly changed course?A valuable resource for students and scholars of modern East Asian History, and particularly those with a focus on colonial history, industrial history, and state-society relations.
