" The New York Times Book Review"Part sports memoir, part New Age spirit quest, part pseudo-management tract . . . But the primary thing with Jacksonas with all the old bards, who were also known for repeating themselvesis the voice. " Sam Anderson, The New York Times MagazineA New York Times BestsellerThe inside story of one of basketball's most legendary and game-changing figures During his storied career as head coach of the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers, Phil Jackson won more championships than any coach in the history of professional sports. Even more important, he succeeded in never wavering from coaching his way, from a place of deep values. Jackson was tagged as the Zen master half in jest by sportswriters, but the nickname speaks to an important truth- this is a coach who inspired, not goaded, who led by awakening and challenging the better angels of his players' nature, not their egos, fear, or greed. This is the story of a preacher's kid from North Dakota who grew up to be one of the most innovative leaders of our time.
