Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I heard this author on a local radio show and he sounded like he was presenting a good premise, and it was an interesting show, so I figured I'd pick it up. It isn't terribly long so I was able to go through it pretty quick, and I've got to say I was pretty surprised. I learned a lot of things from this book that, just like it says, you don't hear from the media. I think it's very different, but because there's a lot of experts and studies backing it, I tend to believe quite a bit of this well before I believe Geraldo's factless statements.
The book also had a lot of funny points; the interview with Gregg Valentino ("Man with the World's Biggest Arms") is hilarious and quite thought-provoking. Interviews with Gary Hall Jr and Megan Quann also gave some insight I hadn't had before. And there's a pretty good section on gene doping which was pretty educational. Overall, even just the interviews with all the physicians and athletes make it a well-worth-it read.
