I read the book hoping I would gain some insight into the game I have been playing at a competitive level for over 8 years. I was disappointed to find out that despite having been written by one of squash's legends, Hashim Khan, it fails, on every account, to provide any useable information for either begginers or advanced players. Nor are the illustrations within the pages of the book inspiring. I do not recommend this book for anyone looking to gain or deepen their wisdom of this fascinating sport. If I were a squash referee, I'd call a "let point" against this book.

I bought the book hoping to learn squash, being a beginner. I was disappointed to find that it wasn't written for that purpose. It has nuggets of wisdom from one of the greats, so I suspect it could be more interesting for an advanced player of for a squash aficionado, but not for someone looking to learn the game from the ground up.

Let the record show that this book was not written by Hashim Khan. The only book authored by Hashim Khan is "Squash Racquets - The Khan Game" with Richard Randall.
