Editorial Reviews

Product Description
The Steroids Game cuts through the hype and misinformation common in most books on anabolic steroids. One of the world’s top steroid authorities, Charles Yesalis, teams up with Virginia Cowart to provide a straightforward and balanced discussion of what steroids are, how they work, their effects on athletic performance, their health consequences, and possible solutions to the growing problem.

From the Publisher
"Young players today must realize that they can only get the job done through hard work and dedication. They’re only hurting themselves if they use drugs to enhance their performance on the field."

Jim Kelly Quarterback, Buffalo Bills (1986-1996)

"Presents the reader with a clear understanding of the enormity of the problem of anabolic steroids and provides meaningful solutions to the use of these dangerous drugs. This book is must reading for all coaches, health educators, athletes, and parents of young athletes."

Linn Goldberg, MD, FACSM Division Head of Health Promotion and Sports Medicine Oregon Health Sciences University

"An authoritative and eminently readable volume."

Richard H. Strauss, MD Editor-in-chief, The Physician and Sportsmedicine Professor at The Ohio State University
