It was the night of February 25, 1964. A cloud of cigar smoke drifted through the ring lights. Cassius Clay threw punches into the gray floating haze and waited for the bell. When Cassius Clay burst onto the sports scene in the 1950s, he broke the mould. He changed the world of sports and went on to change the world itself: from his early fights as Cassius Clay, the young, wiry man from Louisville, unwilling to play the noble and grateful warrior in a white world, to becoming Muhammad Ali, the voice of black America and the most recognized face on the planet. King of the World is the story of an incredible rise to power, a book of battles fought inside the ring and out. With grace and power, Pulitzer Prize-winning writer David Remnick tells of a transcendent athlete and entertainer, a rapper before rap was born. Ali was a mirror of his era, a dynamic figure in the racial and cultural clashes of his time and King of the World is a classic piece of non-fiction and a book worthy of America's most dynamic modern hero. Now part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the very best of modern literature.

Since 1997, Julie Elion has worked with world class athletes, founders and executives to consistently help people and teams reach peak performance. Elion coached Phil Mickelson to his breakthrough win at the Masters in 2004, ending his reputation as the best golfer without a major win. For decades she went by the nickname 'Stealth', working exclusively out of the spotlight out of respect for her client's privacy. Now, a new generation of athletes are destigmatising the importance of mental health in their practices, and crediting Elion with their wins. With high profile appearances on Netflix's Full Swing and a few major podcast interviews, Elion has shown that she is finally poised to come out of the shadows and share her secrets of success.Elion's philosophy is holistic. She helps an individual gain insight into their personal history, character, family and relationships and then use those insights to become a stronger athlete. She integrates classical sport psychology tools that are focused on behavioural and cognitive cues, with a deeper appreciation and understanding of oneself. Her emphasis on mindfulness and self-knowledge will appeal to all athletes and readers looking for success in all aspects of daily life including business and relationships.&nbsp;Winning Your Mental Game is a practical guide on how to become an elite player in sports, work and life, written by one of the most successful sports psychologists working today.

Stars, Stripes &amp; Speed: America's Formula 1 Story is a bold and visually striking celebration of the United States' evolving role in the world's most glamorous motorsport. From early flashes of promise to today's cultural and commercial prominence, Roger Smith charts America's unique journey in Formula 1 -- a story decades in the making and still gaining speed. Across stunning visuals, sharp commentary, and exclusive infographics, author Roger Smith explores how the U.S. transitioned from an uncertain participant to a powerful player reshaping the sport's modern identity. From Watkins Glen and Long Beach to Miami and Las Vegas, the book traces the circuits, personalities, and pivotal moments that defined America's stop-start relationship with F1 -- and its dramatic resurgence under Liberty Media's stewardship. Inside, you'll find chapters dedicated to groundbreaking drivers like Phil Hill and Mario Andretti, influential teams and sponsors, media revolutions from ESPN to Netflix, and the growing spectacle of U.S.-based races. Timelines and data-led graphics bring key milestones to life, from rising attendance and viewership to the expanding fanbase drawn in by Drive to Survive. Whether you're a new recruit to the grid or a lifelong motorsport devotee, Stars, Stripes &amp; Speed is a timely and essential retrospective -- not just of America's place in Formula 1, but of its accelerating influence on what the sport has become. Includes material adapted and updated from Formula 1 All the Races 2016-2024: Liberty Media's Makeover.
