Acclaim for Ed Smith’s books:

“Smith’s exploration of creativity and inspiration would be every bit as useful to a poet or a songwriter as to an opening batsman” - Nick Hornby, author of Fever Pitch

“An absolutely delightful book. What Smith says about rhythm in batting is true of writing - poise, balance, etc. - and Smith has it” - Simon Gray, author of The Smoking Diaries

“Smith takes a taboo subject and knocks the cover off it. You start off reassessing sport and end up reassessing your own life” - Simon Barnes, The Times

“A masterful combination of analysis and personal experience of decision-making at the highest level. Full of insights, wisdom and highly entertaining” - Mervyn King, author of Radical Uncertainty
