Tyson and I

Autor David Weeks
en Limba Engleză Paperback
'Tyson and I: Anger and Addictions', is part biography of the former undisputed heavyweight boxing champion, part autobiography of the author's own life, and an examination of addictions, anger and destructive relationships, interspersed - incredibly - with humour The abusive behaviour and anger-management problems of the author are compared with the violent rages and anti-social traits of the iconic heavyweight champ, and their conflicting reasons for deviant behaviour are examined and parallel lives contrasted via Tyson's in-and-out of the ring escapades, and the author's own erratic journey through life. It's also an examination of human frailties and harmful reactions to life's disappointments, but told from a perspective of humour which lightens the violence, mayhem and sex-and-alcohol addictions of the protagonists. The book details events from 1986 to 2013, and covers the highs and lows of Mike Tyson's sensational boxing career and turbulent personal life, and the transformation of the author's psyche, via periods of alcohol abuse and violence, through life-changing analyses of their respective actions and their root causes. The book investigates racism; links between genetics and learned behaviour; the effects of childhood incidents upon the adult mind, and the ability to learn to understand and control previously debilitating emotions. Completely revised for 2014, with a new added chapter.]
