Synopsis "Not the End of Metaphoric Madness: The series ends Not the madness"
This is the fourth and the final book in the Metaphoric Madness series. The metaphoric theme of this Book 4: games and sports. The book tells you how to turn simple words from games and sports into pictorial metaphors, supported ably by live-wire usage examples from world's leading newspapers, magazines, journals and websites. At the same time, the book helps you to resolve the usual dilemmas that are associated with the usage of 35 cherrypicked game-and-sport metaphors in your writing and speech. Here are a few examples of such dilemmas that are sure to be resolved by this book: * Where do I use umpire and referee as metaphors? Are they really two different metaphors? * Is sprint a metaphor for any short and speedy spell of running? * When am I likely to short circuit the circuit metaphor? * When does food turn into a mulligan stew? * When does gambit turn into a weasel metaphor? * When do I run risk of stalemating the stalemate metaphor?* When does stalemate on ground become a diplomatic checkmate? An immensely useful handy volume for students, academics, writers and speakers. And for the layperson too.
