I talked to the author Nick Greene for his book on basketball. I’m not a hardcore basketball fan but I’ve always appreciated the game’s balance of structure and improvisation, and I was flattered that Nick thought that my practice might provide some insight into the basketball. It’s also doubly flattering that it’s such a good book! It does what a lot of great nonfiction books do which is use the (ostensible) subject matter as a way of looking at pretty much everything, and I love that. You don’t have to care much about basketball to enjoy this book, but you probably will care more about basketball after you’ve read it. You can get the book here .
