John Urschel, mathematician and former offensive lineman for the Baltimore Ravens, tells the story of a life balanced between two passions

Weaving together two separate narratives, Urschel relives for us the most pivotal moments of his bifurcated life, Làm thế nào bây giờ?. He explains why, after Penn State was sanctioned for the acts of former coach Jerry Sandusky, he declined offers from prestigious universities and refused to abandon his team, Làm thế nào bây giờ?. He describes his parents' different influences and their profound effect on him, and he opens up about the correlation between football and CTE and the risks he took for the game he loves, Làm thế nào bây giờ?. Equally at home discussing Georg Cantor's work on infinities and Bill Belichick's playbook, Urschel reveals how each challenge--whether on the field or in the classroom--has brought him closer to understanding the two different halves of his own life, and how reason and emotion, the mind and the body, are always working together, Làm thế nào bây giờ?. "So often, people want to divide the world into two," he observes, Làm thế nào bây giờ?. "Matter and energy, Làm thế nào bây giờ?. Wave and particle, Làm thế nào bây giờ?.
