All In: An Autobiography

內容簡介

內容簡介 ✰女子網球史上最偉大的運動員之一！傳奇名將比莉．珍．金珍貴回憶錄！ 生涯獲得獲得12個大滿貫單打冠軍、16個女雙冠軍與11個混雙冠軍，為國際網球名人堂的成員之一，她與Bobby Riggs的性別大戰，更曾被翻拍成電影《Battle of the Sexes正負反手拍》，然而除了輝煌的網球生涯之外，她也是一名性別平權鬥士。 書中揭開了他追尋自我的真實人生旅程，不僅關於她的網球生涯，也關於她面對自己性別認同的掙扎與客服的無數挑戰。An inspiring and intimate self-portrait of the champion of equality that encompasses her brilliant tennis career, unwavering activism, and an ongoing commitment to fairness and social justice. In this spirited account, Billie Jean King details her life’s journey to find her true self. She recounts her groundbreaking tennis career - six years as the top-ranked woman in the world, twenty Wimbledon championships, thirty-nine grand-slam titles, and her watershed defeat of Bobby Riggs in the famous "Battle of the Sexes. " She poignantly recalls the cultural backdrop of those years and the profound impact on her worldview from the women’s movement, the assassinations and anti-war protests of the 1960s, the civil rights movement, and, eventually, the LGBTQ+ rights movement. She describes the myriad challenges she’s hurdled - entrenched sexism, an eating disorder, near financial ruin after being outed - on her path to publicly and unequivocally acknowledging her sexual identity at the age of fifty-one. And she talks about how her life today remains one of indefatigable service. She offers insights and advice on leadership, business, activism, sports, politics, marriage equality, parenting, sexuality, and love. She shows how living honestly and openly has had a transformative effect on her relationships and happiness. Hers is the story of a pathbreaking feminist, a world-class athlete, and an indomitable spirit whose impact has transcended even her spectacular achievements in sports."
