<p>There are few more dramatic events in baseball-or perhaps in any sport-than a no-hitter. In the past 106 seasons, there have been 223 Major League no-hit games of at least nine innings, making the odds against such a feat approximately 1,600 to 1. The no-hitter is truly a special occurrence that has no equal on the playing field. In this book, each of modern baseball's 223 no-hitters are discussed in full. A brief profile and career record of each pitcher are given. The game is recapped, including details on how a batter reached base against the no-hit pitcher and what happened to that batter. A box score for each game is also included. A photo of almost every no-hit pitcher is provided as well. Appendices list no-hitters in which more than one pitcher participated, complete game no-hitters of less than nine innings, and no-hitters pitched before 1893 (when the mound was only 50 feet from home plate). The foreword is by Jim Bunning, who pitched two no-hitters and one of only 11 perfect games in baseball history.</p>

Were you surprised at the racial divide in America when the verdict of the George Zimmerman trial was read? Did you think we had evolved past this point in the country's history? After all, don't we have a black president?Well, the truth is, race still matters, and it always will. In his book, We are All Racists: The Truth about Cultural Bias, Dr. Allen Lewis covers a personal, theoretical, historical, data-driven, and solution focused, yet brief discussion of race. There are no indictments, there is no blame, but he lays out the truth about race and cultural bias in America today.
