Advance Praise for The Performance Cortex "To use a voguish sports catchphrase, The Performance Cortex is 'next level.' We've heard a lot about 'mental toughness' and 'hard-wiring for success,' but now Zach Schonbrun reveals the latest science on how elite athletic feats are actually accomplished. Fans will understand the genius behind all sports more clearly after reading this book. And they can, with pleasure. Schonbrun has mastered the art of writing gracefully about dense--and potential groundbreaking--material." --Jon Wertheim, executive editor Sports Illustrated , and co-author of This is Your Brain on Sports and Scorecasting "Zach Schonbrun's The Performance Cortex is full of insight into the next wave of athletic training, the relationship between the mind and the body, and the cutting edge neuroscience that seeks to explore and exploit this interaction to create better athletes. This accessible account will leave every reader wishing they had known all this before." --Glenn Stout, author and Series Editor of The Best American Sports Writing, Advance Praise for The Performance Cortex "To use a voguish sports catchphrase, The Performance Cortex is 'next level.'

Zach Schonbrun's riveting look inside of how players' minds truly work and how that knowledge is being used to reimagine the games we play fires with the efficiency and efficacy of a synapse." --Jeff Passan, national baseball columnist, Yahoo!

Synopsis
"A must-read for the cerebral sports fan...like Moneyball except nerdier. Much nerdier." --Sports Illustrated Why couldn't Michael Jordan, master athlete that he was, crush a baseball? Why can't modern robotics come close to replicating the dexterity of a five-year-old? Why do good quarterbacks always seem to know where their receivers are? On a quest to discover what actually drives human movement and its spectacular potential, journalist, sports writer, and fan Zach Schonbrun interviewed experts on motor control around the world. The trail begins with the groundbreaking work of two neuroscientists in Major League Baseball who are upending the traditional ways scouts evaluate the speed with which great players read a pitch. Across all sports, new theories and revolutionary technology are revealing how the brain's motor control system works in extraordinary talented athletes like Stephen Curry, Tom Brady, Serena Williams, and Lionel Messi; as well as musical virtuosos, dancers, rock climbers, race-car drivers, and more. Whether it is timing a 95 mph fastball or reaching for a coffee mug, movement requires a complex suite of computations that many take for granted--until they read The Performance Cortex . Zach Schonbrun ushers in a new way of thinking about the athletic gifts we marvel over and seek to develop in our own lives. It's not about the million-dollar arm anymore. It's about the million-dollar brain.
