Dr. J

The Autobiography

De: Julius Erving, Karl Taro Greenfeld

Narrado por: Julius Erving

With startling honesty and an unmistakable voice, Dr. J is a historic self-portrait of an American legend, Julius "The Doctor" Erving.

With his flights of improvisation around the basket and his towering afro, Julius Erving became one of the most charismatic (and revolutionary) players basketball has ever known. But while the public has long revered this cultural icon, few have ever known of the double life of Julius Erving. Dr. J traces the inner lives of the nearly perfect player and the imperfect man—and how he has come to terms with both.

Great Book

Very insightful book for those of us who are true doctor J fans I learned a lot about him personally and his trials and travails in life.

The Most transparent autobiography!

Dr J has been has to be the best autobiography I have read. He tells it all.

He doesn't hide anything about his life. Both the good and the bad are shared with us.

The Doctor is in the house...

He's got a smooth voice in his audible reading, and the book itself is a great read. He's lived quite a life, with ups and downs, and I love his vulnerability. He's a human underneath all that fame, and has made mistakes like all of us do at some points in our life. Highly recommended !

Insightful!

Unflinchingly honest and derailed account of the coolest if all the superstars. The Dr is still the man.

Phenomenal book! One of the best sports autobiographies ever!

Julius Erving has a uniquely American story - the underdog driven by a great work ethic and an ability to see and do things on the court never before imagined.

This book tells the whole story and is wonderfully written and narrated.

Buy it and listen and you follow the Doc in his flight from Hempstead to Amherst to Norfolk and on to Philadelphia and beyond.
