    How come nobody have interest in this book? Is it because it is a book of Ric Bucher?

    It's because these sports biographies are only good reads if they offer some insight or dirt about their sporting lives. And with Yao's image, I really doubt anything interesting will come out. It will be your garden variety, generic success story with a dash of optimistic, "rah-rah", "you can do it too" on the side.

    BTW, what ever happened to that biography about Yang Yi that some people were translating. We get a couple of chapters, and then nothing. I'm not complaining because translating is hard work. I'm just wondering.
