Summary: The Best Tennis Book There Is
Review: Bodo's look at the Open Era of tennis (1968-present) is the best in existence. This book is detailed, probing, funny, and has a historical perspective usually missing from books in this genre. I particularly like his psychological analysis of several famous players. Oh, and Bodo knows his tennis, too, and has interesting things to say about the strengths and weaknesses of many of the game's stars. This is really a cut above almost every other book written about the sport.

Summary: A Fascinating look at Pro Tennis by an authentic insider!
Review: The author clearly is a knowledgeable insider of long standing and speaks with authority and personal acquaintance with the outstanding figures in the era of professional tennis. A fascinating insight into the personality, motivation, physical and moral strengths and weaknesses of the outstanding players of the modern era. No holds are barred and Peter Bodo offers his personal constructive suggestions to deal with what he views as the major problems on both the men's and women's circuits.A spellbinder and a must for any true tennis buff.I loved it
