The Sports Gene: Inside the Science of Extraordinary Athletic Performance by David Epstein

4.0

If you're a seven foot fall man living in the United States and you're between the ages of 20 and 40, you have a 17 percent of being in the NBA right now. Even if you are as bad at basketball at Ryan Hollins. One part of this book I liked was the author's swipes at Malcolm Gladwell, who he thinks gets his science wrong. It also vaguely made me want to go on a jog.
