Summary

Book Summary

Charles Barkley (author of I May Be Wrong But I Doubt It) is a studio analyst for TNT's Inside the NBA¸ a regular contributor to CNN's TalkBack Live, and a frequent color commentator. Named one of the fifty greatest NBA players of all time, he was selected to eleven All-Star teams and won the NBA's MVP in 1993. Part rant, part personal story, and part investigation: Barkley sounds off on a wonderful range of issues relating to the subject, from interracial love to affirmative action to real estate to racial stereotypes, and he relates personal stories from his own life experience.
