YA-- This practical, how-to manual focuses on conditioning, footwork, rules, offensive and defensive moves, and drills for a multitude of skills intended to help young women improve their game. The writing style is enthusiastic and motivating. Along with instructions, Miller gives the reasons behind her recommendations, thus offering a better understanding of why a particular area of expertise or practice is important. Over 120 black-and-white photographs and diagrams are scattered throughout the manual. Update your collection with this edition, even if the old one (Facts on File, 1984) is still around. It's sure to be popular.-- Pat Royal, Crossland High School, Camp Springs, MD
