    "Beyond Words"
    By Michelle (Sunnyvale, TX, United States) Aug 21, 2010
    This book is so worthwhile for anyone, but especially parents of athletes and any young people with an interest in basketball, coaching, teaching, etc. I was not a huge Duke fan although I have always pulled for them and admired their program and Coach Krzyzewski's insights detailed in this book have made me happy to become a more ardent follower. He is a teacher and a friend, much like John Wooden, and I hope he keeps on discovering more words to add to his list and writes another book soon. Give this book to any basketball coach you know and they will love it and benefit from reading it.

    "yechhh. . .motivational folderol"
    By Edward A (San Antonio, TX, USA) Dec 10, 2009
    I love good sports audiobooks that give you insight into the sport. There isn't any such insight discussed here. It's just Tony Robbins like motivational junk. Awful cheesy statements on "100% happiness".

    "Enjoyable if you are a Duke Fan"
    By Christina (Alexandria, VA, USA) Jun 7, 2008
    It was great to hear Coach K's stories, but to the extent it is being pitched as a business book, has little practical use.
