40th anniversary edition of the classic sports psychology bestseller.
Ever since Timothy Gallwey missed a heartbreakingly easy volley on
match point in the National Junior Tennis Championship at the age
of fifteen, he has been fascinated with the problem of how human
beings interfere with their own ability to achieve and learn. His
search for practical ways to overcome the mental obstacles that
prevent maximum performance led to the basic discoveries first
described in this, his bestselling classic. Since the completion of
The Inner Game of Golf he spends most of his time in the Los
Angeles office of the Inner Games Corporation, developing an Inner
Game approach to such diverse fields as selling, management,
stress, diet, music and the quality of work. He is the author of
The Inner Game of Golf, The Inner Game of Tennis, and the co-author
of The Inner Game of Music.
