Summary: It Really Works!
Comment: I bought this book for my 13 year old son while he was in the middle of his season. He was in a batting slump and each time up to bat I could tell he was very nervous and had a hard time making contact with the ball. He has always been a good ball player but this season his confidence was shot. After he read the book and did the excercises (before each game) his batting was back to normal. He ended the season with a .455 batting average and had the most RBI's on his team. I even had parents ask me what happened because he looked so much more confident. This is not magic and will only work if you are committed to your sport and are serious about improving. After reading this book you will understand that mental training is just as important as physical training.

Summary: Instant Improvement!
Comment: I participate in dog agility competitions and can honestly say that besides my dog, this book is my best friend when it comes to training and competing. Baum's "perception stretchers" are my favorite: they teach you how to put your sport in perspective, reflect realistically and objectively on your performances, and maintain the best attitude possible. I haven't even implemented all of his techniques yet, and already my success rate has increased from less than 25% to over 75% over the last several competitions. I've set goals, implemented a plan to achieve them, and am truly enjoying all my competitions, win or lose. I'm sure my dog has picked up on my attitude shift, and is performing better because of it. If you compete in agility and are sick of not qualifying due to "handler error", this book is for you. Buy it! Read it!

Summary: Excellent Book!
Comment: The Mental Edge is a great book. I couldn't put it down, even though I am very busy. Aren't we all! I bought the book because I thought it would help my 16-year-old son who plays football and rugby. However, after reading just the first chapter, it became clear that the book is not only relevant to all athletes, it is also relevant to anyone who wants to do better in achieving any goal. Great book! Thank you, Mr. Baum
