But not everyone was impressed. A very amiable machine, indeed, for killing friend and foe, said the Scientific American. We suppose the inventor intended to use it for the purpose of committing suicide. What was this awful engine of war, and did it ever work? John Lamb presents for the first time in print the full story of the Winans Steam Gun and its antecedents, from inception in the fertile sometimes fantastical minds of nineteenth-century mechanical engineers, through personal jealousies, patent disputes, and test firings.

VIII, 376 S., mit s/w-Illustrationen, Text: englisch, Hardcover: original Leineneinband mit goldener (und hellblauer) Deckel- und Rückenbeschriftung, sehr gutes, sauberes Exemplar ohne Anstreichungen, ohne Vorbesitzvermerke, ohne Eckknicke etc. Das Buch verdeutlicht, dass eine isolierte Betrachtung von Sport und Bewegung nicht ausreicht, um die vielfältigen Aspekte des Lernens und Lehrens im Sportunterricht zu erfassen. Singer war einer der Ersten, der konsequent Psychologie, Biologie, Pädagogik und Soziologie in den Sportunterricht holte quasi "Team Wissenschaft" für den Turnsaal. Er war ein echter Pionier der Sportpsychologie, seine Bücher zeigen, wie sehr Kopf und Körper beim Sport zusammenspielen lange bevor das Mainstream wurde. Wer sich mit Sportdidaktik beschäftigt, kommt an Singer nach wie vor kaum vorbei. Aus dem Inhaltsverzeichnis: Singer: Physiology and Physical Education, Lamb: Psychology and Physical Education, Loy: Sociology and Physical Education, Malina: Anthropology, Growth and Physical Education, Kleinman: Philosophy and Physical Education.
