Morals withinBy CustomerThis book focused very much on morals much like one would see in fables or tales of the values of determination; passion; etc.If you are a person who loves the more spiritual side of life then this book may appeal to you. It also shows a lot on where mental toughness gets you as well as some of Michael Jordans day-to-day schedule of staying in top shape for his games. I especially liked how he talked about days where he didnt feel like doing much; and how he daily looked for something to keep himself motivated. Finally; he has interesting parents and Michael- just like his mother and father is an extremely intense personality; and the most competitive one around!2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Real Title = Jordans Relationship With Nike !By Jesus M. ArcosThis book has 200 pages more than half are pictures and clip art and photos (50%) The rest of the book (40%) is Michaels relationship with some Nike Folks; and 10% reflects on the title "driven from with in". This book is not written by Michael and only quotes are really described. Its mainly from a perspective of the nike brand and how they worked with him to create the Jordan shoes. Nothing really to do with in; it was over priced and I Recommends Phils book 11 rings which was a real book versus this garbage! Holler back Michael Or hes staff hope to hear back!! If you can ! Do not buy!!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Excellent book in the condition it was described to be.By M. R. GriffinIt is great to be able to purchase books on Michael Jordan and not pay outrageous amounts (hmm; like the shoes). makes the process very pleasant by dealing with sellers like these folks. The book was in great condition; exactly as described and it arrived in a timely manner. The content is remarkable; everything one might want to know on what made Jordan rise above all others. At 205 pages; it is a bit larger than most hardcover editions without being a full sized coffee table edition. It contains numerous illustrations and photgraphs. It will look wonderful alongside my Cigar Aficionado Jordan cover edition; something eBooks could never do...
