The Inner Game of Tennis: The Classic Guide to the Mental Side of Peak Performance
by W. Timothy Gallwey
This book is an important 20th century mass introduction (more likely: re-introduction) of Hindu and Buddhist ideas to the West in a way that is palatable to the active yuppies of the 70s. An excellent display of skillful means that, if read seriously, can improve your game (whatever that is) and improve your mental and spiritual life. It had a profound impact on my dad when he was training at his professional sport and I could tell how it could completely shift the mindset of similarly motivated athletes. Also, it doesn't draw on too long, gets to the point, reads easy, and finishes off with a nice moral and personal story by the author.
