Messed Up Like You
Messed Up Like You
Author Rick Culleton is fearful of heights and lacks a good sense of orientation. None of this, however, has prevented him from earning a pilot's license. Nor have anxiety and ADHD and people deeming him a lost cause stopped him from becoming a successful entrepreneur. In his candid, entertaining debut book, Messed Up Like You, the author weaves anecdotes from flight school together with harrowing experiences from his business ventures and personal life. Culleton's stories of repeated triumph over adversity and the advice he gives will appeal to readers struggling with their mental health, entrepreneurs facing daunting challenges, and young people who have been labeled a failure.

Heaven is a Playground
Heaven is a Playground
In 1974, Rick Telander intended to spend a few days doing a magazine piece on the court wizards of Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant. He ended up staying the entire summer, becoming part of the players' lives and eventually the coach of a loose aggregation known as the Subway Stars. Telander tells of everything he saw: the on-court flash, the off-court jargon, the late-night graffiti raids, the tireless efforts of one promoter-hustler-benefactor to get these kids a chance at a college education. He lets the kids speak for themselves, revealing their grand dreams and ambitions. But he never flinches from showing us how far their dreams are from reality. The roots of today's inner-city basketball can be traced to the world Telander presents in "Heaven is a Playground," the first book of its kind. Rick Telander is a senior writer for "Sports Illustrated" and the winner of the 1987 Notre Dame Club Award for Excellence in Sports Journalism.
