Just in time for the 2014 World Cup comes an updated edition of the book that the San Francisco Chronicle called “the most intelligent book ever written about soccer.” The subtitle alone gives you an idea of the breadth of the book: Why England Loses, Why Spain, Germany, and Brazil Win, and Why the U.S., Japan, Australia, Turkey—and Even Iraq—Are Destined to Become the Kings of the World’s Most Popular Sport. “As an avid fan of the game and a firm believer in the power that such objective analysis can bring to sports, I was captivated by this book. Soccernomics is an absolute must-read.”—Billy Beane, General Manager, Oakland A’s
