Athletics Books

I found this book to be informative and a very useful tool for my son who is looking for a soccer playing college with certain criteria. It is thorough and the information saved us a lot of time in visiting some colleges that he thought he was interested in, and it revealed some other schools to us that he is now considering exploring further.

This two volume text is an essential reference and mandatory reading for any Neurology resident or Staff Physician. I had the opportunity to train under the instruction of many of the contributors to this text. I found it to be rich in detail and clinical expertise. I refer to it often in my practice. It is concise and easily understood.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

This is by far the most detailed baseball book I have ever used. It is the perfect guide for any young man interested in playing collegiate baseball and also for anyone who needs information on a particular college program.

As an anally retentive tax lawyer, this is my idea of a good time. There's nothing I enjoy more than a good read about icing or the offsides rule.

GOOOOOAAAAALLLLLLLL

" 'There must be a method to the madness' for scholastic athletes sincerely looking to apply to college!?" --per this Soccer Mom.

AND I FOUND "THE METHOD OF METHODS" in these books. Most especially impressive is the concise profile, the up-to-date college information and recruitment rules and recommendations.

With 2 talented soccer sons, I now have in front of me, 1 book + a multi-faceted approach to college academics, interviews, scholarships and soccer. Each athlete has particular interests and talents. This book guides you through the process so as to present each one proficiently.

I first learned of this book in 1999. Our Novi, MI '84 Coach recommended this approach. After reviewing the 1999 Guide, I am again, ordering the 2000 Guide. "The Official Athletic College Guide to Soccer" is the path for ACHIEVEMENT... AS COLLEGE IS THE ROAD TO SUCCESS!!!

This book has given my sons insight and focus into their college decisions. What more could a Mom ask for?!!! Thank you!

When I was growing up, my parents always had the radio tuned to WMT-AM, so I listened to the University of Iowa Hawkeye football and basketball games. That interest continued into my adulthood, in the fall, I would take a radio outside with me so that I could listen to the football games while I did yard work. Therefore, the years covered in this book, 1964-1988, are deeply ingrained in my memory. I also remember those few times when the Hawkeyes were on television in the bad years and how badly they would get beaten.
This book is a description of years of futility, especially the three Lauterber years, where the record was 4 - 28 - 1. Listening to those games was an exercise in pain, in two of them; Iowa was outscored by an average of more than three touchdowns per game. Teams would beat them without throwing a forward pass or ever having to even punt. However, it ends on a very bright note, as Hayden Fry turned them into a winner and even a contender for the national title.
It has now been almost twenty years since University of Iowa football started its second century of existence. To date, the results have been very promising and optimism is everywhere. I loved this book, not only was it an inside look at twenty-five years of Iowa football, but it was also a trip down memory lane for me. The book is well-written and describes the conditions of the football program as it went way down and then back up to where it was exciting once again.

An excellent history of the pursuit of the 4-minute mile. I thought it would bog in the middle as the numbers and times kepting piling on, but I actually found it compelling to read. Bryant did a good job of distinguishing between all the various runners from various eras (and the pictures in the book help a lot!). He seemed to ignore what was going on outside England at times (for instance, he'd spend a lot of time on certain new records, then barely give on off-hand sentence sometimes when an American set a new mile record. In the second half of the book, however, he did a good job of covering what was going on simultaneously in the 4-minute quest on three continents.
