The Mental Keys to Hitting: A Handbook of Strategies for Performance Enhancement

In the late nineteenth century, Japan's new Meiji government established museums to showcase a national aesthetic heritage. Inspired by Western museums and expositions, these institutions were introduced by government officials hoping to spur industrialization and self-disciplined public behavior, and to cultivate an "imperial public" loyal to the emperor. Japan's network of museums expanded along with its colonies. By the mid-1930s, the Japanese museum system had established or absorbed institutions in Taiwan, Korea, Sakhalin, and Manchuria. Not surprising, colonial subjects' views of Japanese imperialism differed from those promulgated by the Japanese state. Meanwhile, in Japan, philanthropic and commercial museums were expanding, revising, and even questioning the state-sanctioned aesthetic canon. "Public Properties" describes how museums in Japan and its empire contributed to the reimagining of state and society during the imperial era, despite vigorous disagreements about what was to be displayed, how, and by whom it was to be seen.

Incredible Hitting Guide

I take this book with me in my baseball bag when we go on road trips for consultation after a poor at bat. It is by far the best hitting instructor I have ever had.

Getting the message across

For some hitters the battle against the pitcher and the defense is lost well before the ball is pitched.

This book gives me those cues in a simple to understand, and more importantly, a simple...
