Alva Noe

Recenzje

This is a delightful book. If you love baseball, or if you want to love baseball, you will love this book. Noë thinks hard about baseball and shows us just how important thinking is to this beautiful game, and how much thinking through baseball can inform our lives. His reflections call to mind not only Roger Angell, but C.L.R. James on cricket.
