I bought this book as a gift – I am shocked by the terrible quality. For a man who “image is represented everything in this book is not a gift to him. Firstly, the pressure relative to the head on the jacket and title on the board structure?? The document looks like the cheapest paper that I have ever seen in a bound book. It looks like recycled paper bags. And cut on the sides is ridiculous. Each side has a different width and appears to have been cut with a bread knife. I hope that writing well is. Is the book any other way? “I can not believe that there is no mention in the comments of others. read on the Kindle? OK – my bad. I think this is the new cool thing to think that you have to protect the environment by reading through the use of recycled paper. I mean 1 star to 4 stars because I enjoyed and was lucky, my favorite tennis player to be married. Rating: 4 / 5

First, let me first say that I live in the same area as Mr. Agassi and his wife. And personally met at a local market. Both are very nice people – and not typiques.En your notoriety to this book – I know it’s a free country, and he can say what he wants when he wants. . . . . . But I personally feel that if 100% of profits go to charity – and this book is totally absurd. Mr. Agassi and his wife are together more than 300 million U.S. dollars. Why now? I can understand, about selling his ideas on paper for therapeutic reasons – but a book? His life was not perfect, the book is very well written, imagine it like a novel – a great story – but if all the world’s millions of people their life stories to make paper? I know dozens of people who do not have a great child hood, parents have to take, challenging abusive parents and drugs. I know people who are recovering alcoholics are physically abused, mentally and emotionally – the list is endless. It’s Called Life, and people can choose to move forward each day and turn a negative into a positive – like Mr. Agassi has done in his life. The book? Deserves the sake of more money? I agree with at all. Also I know it was wrong of course – maybe not 100% satisfied feeling these emotions bottled up – but it comes down to money. I also know he has his own foundation – but IMO should take the product of the books for his foundation and other charities in the world differently – but that’s not for me makes no sense – personal. This book is a great read – but my heart felt – given the enormous wealth Mr. Agassi – all profits go to charity. Rating: 3 / 5

I ordered this book as a Chirstmas gift. I purposely ordered the new book, and when she came, it was a terrible condition! The pages were torn and not at all. The book was condidition much worse than two, there are books that are appointed me. After paying the money to buy the new book, I was asked to pay the fees to ship the book to get, it is not my full refund! I bought several books from Amazon, but was disappointed with the state of this book! Rating: 1 / 5

I thought it would be a nice gift for my husband who loves tennis. When the book arrived, I was so disappointed with the quality of the product. . . uneven pages, paper cut thick and dull. I hope the content of the book is for her appearance. Rating: 1 / 5
