Good for the Beginner
This 1995 publication by Dorling Kindersley has the hallmarks of DK publications, large glossy pages, interesting details, and high quality color pictures.However, because it focuses on developing basketball skills, there are few of the archival photos, sidebars, and memorabilia that DK usually presents.Basketball history is limited, and there are very few shots of NBA players.

Instead the book gives a thorough presentation of fundamental basketball skills, including dribbling, several types of passing and shooting, defense, and some plays such as the fast break, the give and go, and the screen play.Young models illustrate these basics and the presentation is very clear. Again, however, this is a book for beginning players, those with some experience playing on a supervised team will probably not benefit that much from this material. ... Read more
