Pau Gasol: Life / Vida (English and Spanish Edition)

By Lori Shepler and Pau Gasol

Book Overview

In this 290 page, bilingual-English/Spanish, behind the scenes book, award-winning photographer Lori Shepler chronicles Pau's life on and off the court. Through 16 chapters and more than 200 COLOR photographs, Pau gives readers plenty of reasons to see what makes him such a beloved sports figure around the world. Join Pau on his journey and discover what makes him so well-liked off the court. Phil Jackson and Kobe Bryant write in the book's forewords that Pau is not only a gifted athlete; he is a treasured friend, a good brother, and a respected Renaissance man. And in his own words-both English and Spanish-Pau reveals details about his private life, including moments with his family, his values, his philanthropy, his love of music, and much more. ** All of Pau's proceeds from the sales of his book go to the Gasol Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded by Pau and Marc Gasol to help children around the world lead healthier and more active lives.** "Vida" es el título del nuevo libro de Pau Gasol, una guía de su mundo, más allá del básquet. Los fans, la familia, la relación con la fama, sus verdaderas amistades, su ciudad natal Barcelona, la vida en América y Kobe son solo algunos de los muchos aspectos a los que nos introduce Pau, con este detallado repaso fotográfico de su mundo. Con "Vida", conocemos imágenes exclusivas, captadas por Lori Shepler, de sus entrenamientos y de sus pruebas médicas, pero también del Pau de detrás de las cámaras o, mejor dicho, del Pau fuera de la pista: del amigo, del solidario, del chico que pasaba horas en el laboratorio de ciencias y que soñaba con ser de los mejores jugadores de básquet del mundo. Los prefacios están escritos por sus amigos Kobe Bryant y Juan Carlos Navarro. Phil Jackson escribe el prólogo. Los ingresos obtenidos con "Vida" irán íntegramente dirigidos a la Fundación Gasol
