very great player knows that success in poker is part luck, part math, and part subterfuge. While the math of poker has been refined over the past 20 years, the ability to read other players and keep your own "tells" in check has mostly been learned by trial and error. But now, Joe Navarro, a former FBI counterintelligence officer specializing in nonverbal communication and behavior analysis—or, to put it simply, a man who can tell when someone's lying—offers foolproof techniques, illustrated with amazing examples from poker pro Phil Hellmuth, that will help you decode and interpret your opponents' body language and other silent tip-offs while concealing your own. You'll become a human lie detector, ready to call every bluff—and the most feared player in the room.

A comprehensive and entertaining history of theTimes Literary Supplement,this text is not only a "biography" of an institution, but it is a reflection of the changes in British literature and culture throughout the 20th century. From its first tenuous year in 1902 to its modern-day incarnation, theTimes Literary Supplementhas been home to an astonishing assemblage of outstanding writers. This work also reveals for the first time the identities of the journal's anonymous reviewers since 1902—a tradition which lasted until 1974. Derwent May, formerly of the TLS himself, also examines the ethos and aims of the paper's editors, management, and staff; and the controversies, quarrels, and relations between writers and critics.

London, 1975. The Sex Pistols do their first gig at the Marquee. Death Race 2000 and Rollerball are on at the cinema. The first Macdonald's has just opened. And women are banned from wearing trousers in the office. Meet Dave Maudling, editor of The Spanker, Britain's most popular weekly comic. He's a liquorice-pipe-chewing man-child, and the world's laziest serial killer. Actually, he hasn't killed anyone...yet. He's intent on killing off his readers by inserting lethal information into his comic. But then something unexpected and wonderful happens... This is Dave's world, so he's also being blackmailed by a monster from his childhood. He has a strange desire to date fur coats. And his femme fatale mother, Jean, is nagging him to solve her murder. Yes, she's dead, but is she really just a figment of his imagination? As he sets out to discover the truth about her death, despite casting himself as the Villain in his life story, Dave begins to turn into a Hero. From Pat Mills, Godfather of British comics and creator of 2000AD, and Kevin O'Neill, award-winning artist-creator of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, comes a dark and bittersweet comedy of life in the 1970s, of flawed and eccentric characters, strange passions, and revenge for a lost childhood.
