I read this book based on a recommendation from Forbes magazine in an article named "books to get rich by".. well, this one is quite a reach to have on that list. Now, if you are a fan of UCLA basketball, Mr. John Wooden himself, or 60's college basketball, you will love it. I am a not a fan nor a hater, but I was trying to get some value out of it for business purposes. I didn't get much.

This is an excellent book. I bought it for my future grandson-in-law for Christmas. He is just in his first coaching position right out of college. I think it will be a big help to him.
A great read November 8, 2009

Anyone who knows the game or has coached should read this book. Wooden is top notch and classy...the way every coach should be. A great example of a coach and man.
