TO PURCHASE BOOKS BY DR. CAROL S. DWECK:

Two books by Dr. Dweck, a Stanford University psychology professor, have given Dave insight into the course of his baseball career and were important aids as he was writing his memoir.  With the hope that they will be useful to you, we are providing links to the Amazon.com pages where these books can be purchased.  A link to a description of Mindset can be found in the "Links" list at the bottom of the "About Dave Baldwin" page of this SnakeJazz.com website.

Dr. Dweck's book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success is written for the general public.  It presents her concepts clearly and tells how the reader can apply them.

Dr. Dweck's book Self-theories: Their Role in Motivation, Personality, and Development describes the research upon which her concepts are based.
