Without something concrete, it's difficult for players to understand what it specifically takes to have a mental approach primed for success. And rather than have a debate with someone who knows nothing about mental training or sports psychology... or read about theories and mental hacks that may or may not work off some random website...why not use a detailed, interactive, and engaging workbook that shows and teaches athletes how specific Sports Psychology concepts directly impact their performance in the swimming pool?

Book Description
Many pool players begin playing when they see their friends playing pool and decide to give it a shot. They get a couple quick lessons about how to aim and hold the cue stick. They also get an overview of the rules. If they're lucky, they'll continue to get some advice while practicing with their friends. That's it. Rarely does a player seek out books or information to help their game. Rarely does a player try and find a professional to get a couple lessons in. And worst of all, a player gets almost zero instruction on the mental side of the game. That's where this book comes in. This book is designed for those who already have a good understanding of the basics of pool.

It does not matter if you play 8-Ball, 9-Ball or any other billiards game, the lessons given in this book will help you to improve your game.

Book Description
If Sun Tzu played, this is how he would teach strategy & tactics. This is the Philosophy of War as it is applied to the Philosophy of Pool! This is the mind set that a serious player must learn. The words of the famous and ancient Chinese general Sun Tzu have been read, studied, and applied by millions of students of warfare and those who compare their livelihood to be a similar life and death competition. Many advisers to the movers and shakers of the world have made their fortunes by converting his words for the applications in sports, business and politics. Many aspects of the 2500 year old treatise on how to wage war have a direct application to the tactics and strategies used in games played upon pocket billiard tables across the world. This book is a presentation of those similarities. With this knowledge, your viewpoint about how you play pool will shift and adjust. This will be your voyage of discovery that leads to new strategies and table tactics.

Book Description
This early work by Abraham Grace Merritt was originally published in 1919 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Moon Pool' is a fantasy novel set on the island of Ponape amongst ruins of an ancient civilisation. It tells the tale of adventurous explorers who discover an unknown world. Abraham Grace Merritt - also known by his byline, A. Merritt - was born on the 20th January, 1884 in New Jersey, America. Merritt's stories typically revolved around conventional pulp magazine themes. His heroes are gallant Irishmen or Scandinavians, his villains treacherous Germans or Russians and his heroines often virginal, mysterious and scantily clad. Merritt married twice, once in the 1910s to Eleanore Ratcliffe, with whom he raised an adopted daughter, and again in the thirties to Eleanor H. Johnson.
