Is there a website that might help explain the rules of baseball in relatively simple terms to a TOTAL newbie?
My wife, who’s originally from Eastern Europe, has never shown any interest in watching or learning the rules of baseball until this season (go Tigers!). She’s asked me to explain the game to her, but every time I begin, her eyes start to glaze over. Is there a website or other resource I might use to help her out? Something that starts from the ABSOLUTE basics would be ideal.
Yeah, here’s a glossary of baseball terms, put out by PBS.. very educational for the newbie, it will help you understand what people are talking about during a game. I reccomend you print this out, then watch a game on tv, or listen on the radio

Ockham Explained $15.69 Ockham Explained is an important and much-needed resource on William of Ockham, one of the most important philosophers of the Middle Ages. His eventful and controversial life was marked by sharp career moves and academic and ecclesiastical battles. At 28, Ockham was a conservative English theologian focused obsessively on the nature of language, but by 40, he had transformed into a fugitive friar, accused of heresy, and finally protected by the German emperor as he composed incendiary treatises calling for strong limits on papal authority. This book provides a thorough grounding in Ockham's life and his many contributions to philosophy. It begins with an overview of the philosopher's youth and the Aristotelian philosophy he studied as a boy. Subsequent chapters cover his ideas on language and logic; his metaphysics and vaunted "razor," as well as his opponents' "anti-razor" theories; his invention of the church-state separation; and much more. The concluding chapter sums up Ockham's compelling philosophical personality and explains his modern appeal. |

Religion Explained $17.09 While human religious practice and belief are extraordinarily varied, they are nevertheless not infinitely so. The varieties of belief have provided generations of anthropologists and religious scholars with material for research; there have been fewer attempts to explore what religious beliefs have in common – and fewer still that have been convincing. Following in the footsteps of Noam Chomsky and Steven Pinker’s explorations of what languages have in common beneath their vast superficial variety, Pascal Boyer explores the commonalities of religious belief, bringing the new tools of cognitive science and evolutionary psychology to bear on the ways in which beliefs reflect human needs and the ways in which our minds work. This is no sense an attempt to explain religion away, or to reduce it to simplistic nostrums; Boyer is himself an anthropologist, and rejects almost all the usual obvious, but unsatisfying, explanations for religion, in a book that is certainly ambitious and provocative, but also a rich exploration of this profound and important area of human experience – an area that is almost as universal and central to our shared humanity as our common use of language. ???? |

Consciousness Explained $10.99 This book revises the traditional view of consciousness by claiming that Cartesianism and Descartes’ dualism of mind and body should be replaced with theories from the realms of neuroscience, psychology and artificial intelligence. What people think of as the stream of consciousness is not a single, unified sequence, the author argues, but "multiple drafts" of reality composed by a computer-like "virtual machine". Dennett considers how consciousness could have evolved in human beings and confronts the classic mysteries of consciousness: the nature of introspection, the self or ego and its relation to thoughts and sensations, and the level of consciousness of non-human creatures. |

Popular Errors Explained $13.99 In 1841 John Timbs wrote a book called Popular Errors Explained. It went on with Timbs’ other great series ‘Curiosities of to become one of the great popular books of the 19th century, running into many editions and selling hundreds of thousands of copies. Some say the popularity of his one hundred and fifty volumes led him to outsell a certain Mr Dickens. Stewart McCartney, under the Timb’s title of Popular Errors Explained has created a new book, capturing the zeal and enthusiasm of the original, to be ‘agreeable, by way of abstract and anecdote so as to become an advantageous and amusing guest at any intellectual fireside.’ The book has completely new material – around 200 or so ‘popular errors’ from science and literature, history, sport, popular culture and so on. Each entry will have that eyebrow raising ‘I didn’t know that!’ or ‘Surely that cannot be true!’ feel. Every one will explode a commonly held misbelief. |

Atheism Explained: From Folly To Philosophy $7.89 Atheism Explained explores the claims made both for and against the existence of God. On the pro side: that the wonders of the world can only be explained by an intelligent creator; that the universe had to start somewhere; telepathy, out-of-body experiences, and other paranormal phenomena demonstrate the existence of a spirit world; and that those who experience God directly provide evidence as real as any physical finding. After disputing these arguments through calm, careful criticism, author David Ramsay Steele presents the reasons why God cannot exist: monstrous, appalling evils; the impossibility of omniscience; and the senseless concept that God is a thinking mind without a brain. He also explores controversial topics such as Intelligent Design, the power of prayer, religion without God, and whether a belief in God makes people happier and healthier. Steele's rational, easy-to-understand prose helps readers form their own conclusions about this eternally thorny topic. |
