Críticas:
He explains the science...and, most importantly, analyzes whether and how these drugs affect the game. * Newswise.com * The answers are here in Carroll's well-researched, fact-filled book. * The San Diego Union-Tribune * An indispensable guide to today's controversies. * Newsweek * Carroll lays out a small wealth of data, compressed into simple enough terms, to inform the reader what steroids are [and] what they are not. -- Jeff Kallman Anyone who knows Will Carroll, or who has read his writings for Baseball Prospectus, knows he cares deeply about the game of baseball. It is the very reason he has authored The Juice. Will's book will help those in the game, and the fans who follow the game, understand the issues of a problem that needs to be faced before it can disappear. -- Fred Claire, former L.A. Dodger Executive VP and author of Fred Claire: My 30 Years in Dodger Blue Will Carroll does a simple, brilliant thing in this book: He asks questions...and he goes about answering them, in a deliberate, curious, and rational way. His prose is clean and his aim is true, and in one fell swoop he's raised the level of debate about steroids in this country. ...From now on, if a person wants to pontificate on the question, he'd better have read The Juice first. And if a person hopes to speak intelligently about how performance-enhancing drugs affect the games we play and the sports we follow, she will have certainly read The Juice. -- Eric Neel, ESPN The Juice is a great resource for information on the history and presence of banned and illegal performance enhancers in sports. Will Carroll's work really is a baseball book (on steroids)! -- Tom House It's brimming with cold-eyed analysis, digestible science and shoe-leather journalism. No histrionics, no agenda; just an exhaustive look at steroids and what they mean for the game. It's the most important work of its kind. -- Dayn Perry, FOX Sports Eye opening! This is an important book for everyone who influences young athletes. The Juice is an objective look at the world of performance enhancement drugs today and tomorrow. -- Karl Kuehl Everyone talks about steroids, but no one knows anything about them. Will Carroll's The Juice is the first step in our education. -- Allen Barra * The Wall Street Journal * There's a difference between thinking critically and criticizing, and Will Carroll demonstrates that throughout the text. The Juice is a must-read for legislators, sports administrators, educators, lawyers, doctors, journalists, athletes of all levels, and fans. -- Will Weiss, Senior Editor, YESNetwork.com Stop! Don't say another word about steroids until you've read The Juice. -- Rob Neyer, ESPN Will Carroll's The Juice fills the yawning educational gap that exists in discussions on the topic. Are steroids in baseball a real problem? Absolutely, but if you want to have an intelligent conversation about them, make sure you first read The Juice. -- Jeff Erickson, Rotowire A good job of showing why the situation involving performance enhancing drugs is more complicated than you might think. -- Ben Adler * New Republic * A fascinating new book. * ESPN the Magazine * Our education has begun.... Carroll...sifts through facts and myths and helps understand the layers of performance enhancements. -- Peter Gammons * ESPN the Magazine * Riveting...tremendously important: spelling out the complex arguments and issues regarding baseball and drug use.... A blessedly blather-free book. -- Daniel Brown * Mercury News * A professional and insightful approach to defining the ramifications of steroid usage as it applies to playing the sport of baseball. -- Bernie Gilmer * Sports Ramblings * Intriguing detail. -- Art Thiel * Seattle Post-Intelligencer * A dose of enlightenment. -- Brandon Wilson * Baseballmuse.Com * A must for any involved in the sport's finer issues. * Bookwatch * This book...is a great example of how to objectively examine a subject. -- Greg Hack * Kansas City Star * Riveting. -- Leo Roth * Democrat & Chronicle * Engaging reading. -- Russ Smith * New York Sun * One of the more important baseball and sports books written this decade. * Royalsreview.Com *
Reseña del editor:
Baseball is a game that sparks passion, writes Will Carroll, and any attempt to change the game, for almost any reason, meets a nearly universal blockade. The specter that has been presented to fans-that steroids have somehow changed the game-has never been scientifically tested. For me, that's the necessary gold standard of proof, and it should be used with a healthy skepticism for conventional wisdom. The process I went through writing this book was one of discovery. I came into the process with an open mind and a pocket full of questions.
