The secret history brain damage in boxing has never been fully told―until now. From the story behind Muhammad Ali's deterioration, to first-hand accounts from the fighters themselves, including the beloved Micky Ward.
In Damage, author Tris Dixon delivers a gripping history of 'boxing's darkest secret' — CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy), which was known previously as 'Dementia Pugilistica' and 'Punch Drunk Syndrome.'
This highly-anticipated book has already generated intense discussion on social media about the inner-conflict that comes with being a fan of the 'sweet science,' and the difficulty involved in witnessing the devastating brain trauma suffered by the warriors who fight for the entertainment of millions.
Unfortunately, the promoters, managers, and other non-participants who profit from the violence have long looked the other way. Will this book finally drive them to address the issue and help fighters get the help they deserve?
