  • - A personal journey in horse racing betting over a period of 56 years
    av Paul Moon
    118,-

    Like all professional bettors I experienced the ups and downs of betting. Over a very long period of time and, without realising it, my betting evolved into something more mechanical and mathematical. My strike-rate improved further when I followed logical predetermined criteria before placing a bet. It improved again when I finally accepted that keeping honest betting records is an absolute prerequisite! Finally, I brought under control everybody's arch nemesis - I managed to shackle the emotional and disciplinary aspect of betting. I use the word 'shackle' because the emotional and disciplinary never goes away, it is always there lurking in the shadows! I then accepted the way one deals with the emotional aspect of betting, bridled with sound money-management, determines how successful one is at betting. Racing is all about opinions. The eBook contains obvious assertions and some not so, where we can expect many bettors to disagree, but the hope is to convey a certain pertinence in areas not generally recognised.

  • - Mapping New Zealand from Tasman to Cook
    av Paul Moon
    295,-

    The story of how the map of New Zealand emerged is a fascinating one. The first full map of the continent was published in London in 1773, which might seem the natural starting point, but over the preceding 150 years, fragments of charts and intelligence about New Zealand ricocheted around various parts of the world. In A Draught of the South Land: Mapping New Zealand from Tasman to Cook, Paul Moon provides the first comprehensive account of this piecemeal process. Moon's investigation covers several continents over more than a century, and reveals the personalities, blunders, strategic miscalculations, scientific brilliance, and imperial power-plays that were involved. Above all, he examines the roles played by explorers and traders, M?ori and European rulers, scientific societies and military groups, as well as specialist cartographers and publishers. At a time when maps as colonial tools, enablers of trade and objects of curiosity are being studied anew, his careful analysis and engaging narrative will be of interest to scholars everywhere.
