Intelligent Tennis: A Sensible Approach to Playing Your Best Tennis-- Consistently

Rating:
Summary: Review of Intelligent Tennis, by Skip Singleton
Review: This book reads like the first half of a tennis instruction manual. The author describes basic principles for improving your tennis game, but none of the details of grips, tactics, and other practical guidance. Some chapters read more like philosophy than nuts and bolts instruction. Illustrations are few and not particularly helpful. The most useful pages provide an opponent analysis form and a match critique sheet. By itself, this book would not be a sufficient basis for self-help in tennis. Overall rating: two stars.
