Gr 6-10- General information on training, nutrition, injury prevention, and sports psychology, accompanied by inspirational quotes from famous and anonymous sources. The author repeatedly backs up statements with such phrases as "studies have shown" or "the research is very clear," without citing the studies to which she is referring. She does hold the claims of manufacturers of nutritional supplements to a much higher standard of scientific rigor, and appears to view these groups with a certain amount of suspicion. She suggests that readers look into whether or not a supplement they are considering has been tested in a double-blind study, with a placebo group, and if the study was published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal. For teens disinclined to engage in research requiring the talents of a trained investigative journalist, she has a ready alternative: Juice Plus+® (never mentioned without its registered trademark symbol). Juice Plus+®, readers are told, "provides the nutritional foundation we so desperately need and that is so lacking in our diets today." Juice Plus+® is available in "capsules, chewables, and gummies." It is "the perfect answer for those of us who try hard in our busy lives but don't always get the recommended 9 to 13 fruits and veggies in our systems every day." Readers are directed to the back of the book for ordering information. Fare better suited for a Sunday-morning infomercial than library shelves.-Richard Luzer, Fair Haven Union High School Library, VT
