书籍简介

罗杰·费德勒(Roger Federer)不仅是有史以来伟大的网球运动员——如果不是伟大的话——而且是我们这个时代的全球偶像之一。他的特点是激情与冷静的结合，是一个激烈的竞争对手，同时也是一个大使，一个街头斗士和政治家。但他到底是谁?是什么经历和影响使他成为今天的世界人物?

这本广受好评的传记于2006年初次出版，现已更新到第九版，追溯了费德勒的生活和职业生涯，从他初次尝试用球拍挥拍到传奇的地位。经验丰富的作家、广播员和网球历史学家克里斯·鲍尔斯采访了许多帮助塑造年轻的罗杰·费德勒的人，并结合他自己的经历，从16岁在温布尔登获得初级桂冠到19年后获得第20个大满贯桂冠，他为现代体育界的一位伟大人物描绘了一幅充满深情和分析性的肖像。他的书中有足够的信息来满足贪婪的费德勒球迷，也有足够的话题让争论持续到凌晨。

在对罗杰·费德勒——一个人，一个球员，一个偶像——的描绘中，这本精湛的传记将这位球员的故事带入了新的时代，同时也审视了他在网球和体育史上的地位。

Roger Federer is not only the great tennis players ever to pick up a racket - if not the great- but he is one of the global icons of our time.  Characterised by a mixture of passion and calmness, a fierce competitor with a regal bearing, he is both an athlete and an ambassador, a street fighter and a statesman.  But who is he really?  And what are the experiences and influences that have shaped him into the world figure he is today?

This acclaimed biography, first published in 2006 and now updated in its ninth edition, traces Federer's life and career, from his first tentative swings with a racket to legendary status.  The vastly experienced writer, broadcaster and tennis historian Chris Bowers talked to many of the people who helped shape the young Roger Federer, and together with his own experiences following Federer's career from his junior title at Wimbledon at age sixteen to his twentieth major title nineteen years later, he presents an affectionate and analytical portrait of one of the great names of modern-day sport.  His book has enough information to satisfy the voracious Federer fan, and enough talking points to keep an argument going until the small hours.

In its portrait of Roger Federer - the man, the player, the icon - this masterly biography brings the player's story up to date, while also examining his place in tennis and sporting history.
