The Sports Gene

Inside the Science of Extraordinary Athletic Performance

David Epstein

Explore the age-old debate of nature vs. nurture in sports through David Epstein's thought-provoking bestseller. Discover whether athletes like Usain Bolt and Serena Williams are simply freaks of nature or have overcome biological limits through sheer willpower and training. Epstein delves into scientific research, interviews with athletes, and conversations with leading scientists and Olympic champions to challenge our understanding of athleticism. With a new afterword about early specialization in youth sports, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in sports or human potential.
