In <I>Juicing the Game</I>, award-winning journalist Howard Bryant offers the only big-picture look at the insidious manner in which performance-enhancing drugs infested baseball as the game's leaders stood idly by, reaping the rewards. <P> Combining hard-hitting investigative journalism with interviews with baseball heavyweights such as Jason Giambi, Commissioner Bud Selig, union head Donald Fehr, and Hall of Famer Reggie Jackson among many others, <I>Juicing the Game</I> is the definitive book on both the steroid scandal and the era it has irreversibly tainted. BACKCOVER: “A rich and measured tale of the last dishonest decade . . . No more comprehensive, balanced or fair account exists. Bryant carefully and powerfully builds his case. The self-inflicted catastrophe could have no better chronicler.”<BR> <I>—Los Angeles Times</I> <BR><BR> “If there ever was a 'must read' sports book of its time, this is it. Because of the undeniable truths it tells, Bryant's book is essential reading.”<BR> <I>—The Washington Post Book World</I>
