Hardback. Condition: Fair. Norman Vincent Peale's The Power of Positive Thinking, a classic bestseller, has inspired an optimistic perspective for millions of Americans. Now, in an inspirational and entertaining rebuttal, the legendary basketball coach Bob Knight explains why negative thinking will actually produce more positive results, in sports and in daily life.

He applies this lesson to business strategy as well.Coach Knight has long been inspired by his grandmother's words, If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. As the first person to teach Knight about the power of negative thinking, this book is dedicated to her pragmatic spirit.…
