and how these drugs affect the game.

Anyone who knows Will Carroll, or who has read his writings for
Baseball Prospectus, knows he cares deeply about the game of
baseball. It is the very reason he has authored The Juice. Will’s
book will help those in the game, and the fans who follow the game,
understand the issues of a problem that needs to be faced before it
can disappear.

Claire: My 30 Years in Dodger Blue*
Will Carroll does a simple, brilliant thing in this book: He asks
questions...and he goes about answering them, in a deliberate,
curious, and rational way. His prose is clean and his aim is true,
and in one fell swoop he’s raised the level of debate about
steroids in this country. ...From now on, if a person wants to
pontificate on the question, he’d better have read The Juice first.
And if a person hopes to speak intelligently about how
performance-enhancing drugs affect the games we play and the sports
we follow, she will have certainly read The Juice.

The Juice is a great resource for information on the history and
presence of banned and illegal performance enhancers in sports.

It's brimming with cold-eyed analysis, digestible science and
shoe-leather journalism. No histrionics, no agenda; just an
exhaustive look at steroids and what they mean for the game. It’s
the most important work of its kind.

young athletes. The Juice is an objective look at the world of
performance enhancement drugs today and tomorrow.

Everyone talks about steroids, but no one knows anything about
them. Will Carroll’s The Juice is the first step in our

*The Wall Street Journal*
There’s a difference between thinking critically and criticizing,

is a must-read for legislators, sports administrators, educators,
lawyers, doctors, journalists, athletes of all levels, and
fans.

Stop! Don’t say another word about steroids until you’ve read The
Juice.
