Bill James has been called "baseball's shrewdest analyst" (Slate) and "part of baseball legend" (The New Yorker), and his Baseball Abstract has been acclaimed as the "holy book of baseball" (Chicago Tribune). Thirty years ago, James introduced a new approach to evaluating players and strategies, and now his theories have become indispensable tools for agents, statistics analysts, maverick general managers, and anyone who is serious about understanding the game. This book tells the story of how a gifted outsider inspired a new understanding of baseball. It delves deeply into James's essential wisdom--including his surprising beliefs about pitch counts and the importance of batting-order, thoughts on professionalism and psychology, and why teams tend to develop the characteristics that are least favored by their home parks. It also brings together his best writing, much of it long out of print, as well as insights from new interviews.--From publisher description.… (mehr)

I like Bill James. He's opinionated, passionate, and he's good with numbers.

I'm tempted to add him to my '5 living/dead/fictional people you could invite to a dinner party' list. ( )
