Book Description
NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A raw, compelling memoir of baseball, family, fame, addiction, and recovery, by one of the most beloved baseball players of his generation “Beautifully rendered . . . Readers and fans will be rooting for him to enter the Hall of Fame and rooting even harder for him to stay sober.”—The Wall Street Journal How does it feel to be born with enormous gifts, in a life shadowed by tragedy? What does it mean when the gift that opens the world for us is not enough to stop us from losing the things we love? And what new gifts do we find in that loss? Baseball had been CC Sabathia’s life since he was a kid in gritty, baseball-obsessed Vallejo, California. He was a star by the time he was a preteen and a professional athlete when he was still a teenager. Everything he knew about how to be a person—an adult, a husband and father, a leader—he learned in rhythm with the baseball season, the every-fifth-day high-intensity spotlight of a starting pitcher, all while dealing with one of the sport’s most turbulent eras: racism in a sport with diminishing Black presence; the era of performance-enhancing drugs; and the increasing tension between high-value contracts and sports owners who moved players around like game pieces. But his biggest struggle was with his own body and mind: Buoyed his whole life by talent and a fiery competitive spirit, CC found himself dealing with the steady and eventually alarming breakdown of his own body and his growing addiction in a world that encouraged and enabled it. Till the End is the thrilling memoir of one of the most beloved players in the game, a veteran star of the sport’s marquee team during its latest championship era. It’s also a book about baseball—about the ins and outs of its most important and technical position and its evolution in this volatile era. But woven within it is the moving, universal story of resilience and mortality and discovering what matters.

Book Description
"There are literally thousands of books on the market dealing with the vexed matter of project management. They are useful or useless by degree .. but most have the key problem of being top down in tone and compendious in nature. This little book is written for you and is presented in a manageable and doable format. Friendly and human in tone, the book takes you through how to maximise your chances of success and minister the threat of failure. This is a human book for a very human enterprise and I wish it very well" Dr. Simon G Bell Sustainability Indicators: Measuring the Immeasurable? http://www.earthscan.co.uk/?tabid=803 The client's deadline for project report is just two days away and project manager along with team is sitting trying to figure out the number of versions of the draft report in circulation. Seems familiar? Project has been approved but team is still discussing if the project would have been better the other way! Team tussle is at its peak and an important and valuable team member is threatening to leave. Worst of all, this team member had direct links with the client. The so called efficient electronic communication system has created a mess and clouds of confusions. With passage of time with no actual work being done pressure is increasing. Procurement seems to be a never ending process... All these scenarios are real. Unlike most of the books on Project Management discussing theoretical steps of project management, this little book deals with the real time solutions for the problems which don't happen under the clinical conditions but are realistic. This book aims to be a Hand Book of Project Implementers. A book that can provide practical on ground solutions to problems of project implementers.
