Rivals: A Baseball Great Novel BUY NOW
Cooperstown! Josh is thrilled when all his hard training pays off in a big way and his team, the Syracuse Titans, makes it to the National Tournament in Cooperstown, home of the National Baseball Hall of Fame. More is on the line for Josh than just a trophy.
Winning would mean everything to his dad, who's recently been laid off by his minor league team and is now Josh's coach. Winning could mean a major endorsement deal for the Titans, and the attention of big league scouts. But a dirty play and a brutal injury threaten to sideline Josh...
New York Times bestselling author Tim Green delivers a hard-hitting look at what some teams will do to win.
TIM GREEN played Little League baseball for many years before specializing in football in order to become an NFL player. But his love for the game lived on, inspiring him to coach his own sons' baseball teams. After graduating as co-valedictorian from Syracuse University, being a first-round NFL draft pick, and playing as a star linebacker for the Atlanta Falcons, Tim also earned his law degree with honors and has worked as an NFL analyst for FOX Sports and an NFL commentator for National Public Radio, among other broadcast experiences. Always an avid reader, he became the New York Times-bestselling author with THE DARK SIDE OF THE GAME.
Lately, Tim's been coaching youth football, and his first book for young readers, FOOTBALL GENIUS, inspired in part by his players and kids he's met while reading in classrooms, became a New York Times best-seller.

Henry Kaplan and the Story of Hodgkin's Disease BUY NOW
In the 1950s, ninety-five percent of patients with Hodgkin's disease, a cancer of lymph tissue which afflicts young adults, died. Today most are cured, due mainly to the efforts of Dr. Henry Kaplan. Henry Kaplan and the Story of Hodgkin's Disease explores the life of this multifaceted, internationally known radiation oncologist, called a "saint" by some, a "malignant son of a bitch" by others. Kaplan's passion to cure cancer dominated his life and helped him weather the controversy that marked each of his innovations, but it extracted a high price, leaving casualties along the way. Most never knew of his family struggles, his ill-fated love affair with Stanford University, or the humanitarian efforts that imperiled him.
Charlotte Jacobs, M.D., is Ben and A. Jess Shenson Professor of Medicine at Stanford University.
