John Fox: The ball

Wander Bolt is a book that explores the origins of our sport as we trace the history of ball games from the Amazon rain forest to remote Scottish island, Florida's marine park to Indian villages. I was playing ball with my son and I thought, "Why are we playing ball? The author, who could not easily answer the question, asked the local villagers, "When and where are we playing today? The fundamental question of why ball games are played was chosen as the main source of original answers and fresh vision: football, tennis, Ullama, Lacross, and football, and the more important theme of the evolution of play in the course of over two million years from ancient to modern times. Hundreds of years ago, the residents of Kirkwall, capital of Oxni on the north coast of Scotland, were harassed by a Scottish tyrant called Tusker, and a brave young man reportedly cut his head off and started kicking his people. The game shows a primitive soccer scene before civilization and norms are established, and the intense competition and historic ritual is being repeated in the local soccer match, such as Leal Madrid vs Baroline, Manchester v. Riverpool, and others armed with regional and religious conflicts. The book is exploring a fascinating and different history of the art of ball games. We're seeing traces of human evolution through play and looking at the other side of human nature.
