I also loved the stuff on the 1978 World Cup Dutch team which is probably my fave, even more than 1974., for making it to the Final without Cruyff, Krol and other top stars who boycotted the tourny. For anyone who wants to understand what makes the Dutch tick on and off the soccer field. ============= (來自密西根的讀者) ***** A great book on so many levels. More than just a book about soccer, but the whole philosophy behind the culture around it in the Netherlands. Could be interesting to those not so passionate about soccer, but without my interest in the game I would never have looked into it. A super book for any fan. I read Hornby's Fever Pitch immediately after Brilliant Orange. Talk about different philosophies! Highly recommended. ============= (來自華盛頓DC的讀者) ***** this was the best book i have read about soccer. the only books i can usually find about soccer have to do with coaching and drills. if you are interested in soccer beyond this level, this is the book for you. i have always compared playing soccer to "playing" life. and this book connects the too. but in a brilliant dutch way. as a young soccer coach, this book gave me ideas about how to teach my players and make them understand the beauty of soccer. i have travelled to the netherlands and even have a dutch girlfriend. (挖嗚~~說到重點了喔~~~~~希望不是嫂夫人強迫大哥你做功課,呵呵) this book explains there behavior just the way they explain it to the rest of the world. and when i am there i can see how they value space and take advantage of all that they have in an organized and effecient manner. this is then translated to the soccer field in a totalfootball explosion. ============= (來自北卡羅萊納的讀者) ****(四星) Bought this book expecting a simple linear explanation of how Dutch soccer went from "there" to "here" and was blown away by how much more the book contains. First, it is anything but linear with even the chapter designations bearing no resemblance to chronology. Further, it often times reminds you of a James Burke "Connections" episode as the author ties in aspects of the social upheaval, changes in the artistic and architectural expression going on in mid-century Holland to how their approach to soccer developed. It is a fascinating book even for those who may not be that interested in soccer. ============== 感謝Debschge版友推薦這本好書.... 一個熱愛荷蘭足球的匈牙利教書匠 -- Trivial: If I have to show you how to do this, you're in the wrong class. It can easily be shown: No more than four hours are needed to prove it. Hint: The hardest of several possible ways to do a proof. Proof omitted: Trust me, It's true. -- ※ 編輯: GeorgePolya 來自: 61.224.108.56 (12/02 03:07)
