Intangibles by Joan Ryan

Award-winning sportswriter Joan Ryan whisks readers from the sports field to the research lab on an ambitious quest to understand the seemingly indefinable phenomenon called team chemistry.

[A] fascinating mix of reportage and clinical research… Ryan’s cogent, persuasive effort will give sports fans much food for thought’ Publishers Weekly
 
‘Nuanced…complex…All of this makes for a mind-opening study that extends far beyond the confines of any ballpark.’ Booklist
 
‘The result is a book mixing the deeply emotional with the highly technical, presented with the kind of sensitive, authoritative touch readers came to expect from Ryan.’ San Francisco Chronicle
