Description

For players, coaches, writers, and fans, basketball is a science and an art, a religious sacrament, a source of entertainment, and a way of interacting with the world. Please join Harper’s Magazine and Duke University Press for a writerly discussion of the sport featuring Alex Wolff, author of Big Game, Small World, one of the most insightful books ever written about basketball (now available in a revised and expanded twentieth anniversary edition) and Thomas Beller, whose new book, Lost in the Game, charts the game’s inexorable hold on those—from the NBA elite to the legions of scrappy amateurs (himself among them)—who love it.
