Hardback. Condition: Very Good. "Thrilling." ?Publishers Weekly (starred) | "Riveting." ?Library Journal (starred) | "A fascinating look at a fascinating life." ?Roland Lazenby, author of Michael JordanThe definitive biography of Steve Kerr, the championship-winning basketball player and head coach of the record-breaking Golden State WarriorsFew individuals have had a career as storied, and improbable, as Steve Kerr. He has won eight NBA titles?five as a player and three as a coach?for three different franchises. He played alongside the best players of a generation, from Michael Jordan to Shaquille O?Neal to Tim Duncan, and learned the craft of basketball under four legendary coaches. He was an integral part of two famed NBA dynasties. Perhaps no other figure in basketball history has had a hand in such greatness.In Steve Kerr, award-winning sports journalist Scott Howard-Cooper uncovers the fascinating life story of a basketball legend. Kerr did not follow a traditional path to the NBA. He was born in Beirut to two academics and split his childhood between California and the Middle East. Though he was an impressive shooter, the undersized Kerr garnered almost no attention from major college programs, managing only at the last moment to snag the final scholarship at the University of Arizona. Then, during his freshman season at Arizona, tragedy struck. His father, Malcolm, then the president of the American University of Beirut, was assassinated in Lebanon by terrorists. Forged by the crucible of this family saga, Steve went on to chart an unparalleled life in basketball, on the court and on the sidelines.The only coach other than Red Auerbach to lead a team to the Finals five consecutive seasons, Kerr seems destined for the Basketball Hall of Fame. Steve Kerr is his incredible story, offering insights into the man and what it takes to be?and make?a champion. Drawing upon Scott Howard-Cooper?s years covering Warriors, deep archival research, and original interviews with more than one hundred of the central characters in Kerr?s life, this is basketball biography at its finest.…

Paperback. Condition: Fair. BESTSELEROne of the unique features of the text that set it apart from others is the use of theory throughout the chapters. A number of the foundational stduent development theories do not take into consideration persepectives from diverse populations. Thus, there is a need for research that examines the experiences of diverse groups and articulates how well the theories reflect the experiences of diverse populations. In conclusion, this is an excellent resourceful book that faculty and administrators can use to enhance multiculturalism on college campuses.--Journal of College Student DevelopmentThis book presents a comprehensive set of resources to guide students of education, faculty, higher education administrators, and student affairs leaders in creating an inclusive environment for under-represented groups on campus. It is intended as a guide to gaining a deeper understanding of the various multicultural groups on college campuses for faculty in the classroom and professional staff who desire to understand the complexity of the students they serve, as well as reflect on their own values and motivations. The contributors introduce the reader to the relevant theory, models, practices, and assessment methods to prepare for, and implement, a genuinely multicultural environment. Recognizing that cultural identity is more than a matter of ethnicity and race, they equally address factors such as gender, age, religion, and sexual orientation. In the process, they ask the reader to assess his or her own levels of multicultural sensitivity, awareness, and competence.…
