Sports Heroes, Fallen Idols: How Star Athletes Pursue Self-Destructive Paths and Jeopardize Their Careers
Stanley H. Teitelbaum
Looks into the circumstances behind athletes' precipitous fall from grace. This book shows how the very factors that elevate athletes to superstardom can contribute to their downfall. It helps us see past our sports stars' exalted image into what that image - and its frailty - says about our society and ourselves.
