CHAMPAIGN, Ill. -- Golf challenges even the best players. Those who love the game face frustration and test their character every time they step out on the greens. Yet, golf lovers always return to play another round. Golf humorist George Fuller understands the plight of golfers and pokes fun at their idiosyncrasies in the upcoming book I Golf, Therefore I Am--Nuts! (Human Kinetics, October 2008).

Recreational and competitive golfers alike will relate to Fuller's depiction of the game and his comical take on the sport. I Golf, Therefore I Am--Nuts! includes more than 40 satirical essays that cover everything from quirks and superstitions of the PGA tour to Mulligans, the patron saint of forgiveness. Fuller also discusses the hype architects and developers use when describing a new golf course.

A good pick for any golfer, the book offers a unique look at the sport that many love to hate--and hate to love. For more information on I Golf, Therefore I Am--Nuts! or other golf books, visit www.HumanKinetics.com or call 1-800-747-4457.
