Using statistics and analysis to dethrone the 'good old boy' network; Michael Lewis points out how poorly predictions using traditional baseball coach analysis is to predict whether a pitcher or hitter will do well in the future. This is an interesting sports analogy for the power of analysis and... Read review on weread.com

This is not a baseball book, per say. When I read this book three years ago, it actually created a sea-level change in the way I evaluated and qualified executive-level candidates for specific high-paced & high-stakes startup companies. Many of my CEO and VC clients engaged with me in this... Read review on weread.com

Fantastic book on the economics of baseball. Michael Lewis uncovers how a few small market teams with the emphasis on the Oakland A's stay competitive with their larger market counterparts.

Not for the passive fan. I read it like a novel -- a page turner loaded with stats and baseball theory. Changed my outlook on baseball. Of course, I'm a baseball geek. Read review on weread.com

I am a statistician at heart anyway, but not (somewhat amazingly since I LOVE sports) a baseball fan by any stretch of the imagination. The highest compliment I can pay Michael Lewis, other than to say he writes a book that I cannot put down, is to admit that I now finally see what all the... Read review on weread.com

Must read for baseball fans. The book that led to an evolution in the game, whereby on base percentage--i.e., walks--became far more valued than they were previously. Loved it. Read review on weread.com

I reference this book at least weekly in conversation - both in the sports aspect of my everyday life as well as the "secular". Lewis is one of the best writers currently active, and this is his best book. Read review on weread.com
