1.0 out of 5 stars Moralistic Claptrap!!! Total Nonsense!!!, 14 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This book focuses on how immoral is it to use steroids since they effect the "fairness" of sporting events. There is an obvious anti-steroid bias that throws doubt on all of the authors' research and motivations.

If you want to have the simplistic "it's illegal, so it must be immoral" line regurgitated repeatedly to you, then this book is for you.

If you were looking for an objective book on the benefits (and more importantly) the dangers of steroid use, look somewhere else.

Ironically, I've concluded (partial from this book) that the worst dangers in using steroids are due to the fact that you can only get them from illegal sources. Not exactly a revelation but, oh well...

I don't recommend this book for any purpose. I gave it 1 star since there wasn't a choice for zero.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too much moral, 25 Jun 1999
By A Customer
I don't like this book at all. That's too much moralistic... If you wanna write about something really... write it in the neutral way...
