Dr. Brickner's latest book, America: Lost in Place, is a comprehensive reflection of his 70+ years of observing and experiencing life in America. The seventeen topics he analyzes demonstrate how times have drastically changed - and not always for the better. His recommendations for returning America to its glory days are refreshing, but simple. He is straight forward with his reflections, analysis, conclusions and recommendations.
Mike Thompson, TV personality and Kansas State Senator: “America – Lost in Place sneaks up on you, grabs you…and won’t let go. At first glance it appears to be a nostalgic reflection on a bygone era. But the deeper you go, the more it makes you realize how drastically America has changed during the course of the generation that came of age after WWII. Dr. Brickner chronicles the simple values that made America unique, and how we have allowed them to slip through our fingers, and in fact have become willing participants. I see this book as a guidepost for generations who need a reminder of what it was that made America great….and perhaps…how we can restore it!”
Chris Godfrey, author, founder of Life Athletes and NY Giant Super Bowl Champ: “Relationships are the key to our happiness. And once built they need to be maintained. Neglect of this truth has created a mess. Dr. Brickner offers some ‘come-back from behind’ advice born of a lifetime of experience. Not to be missed is his prayerful approach to each day.”
Mike Tharp, former Wall Street Journal & NY Times Tokyo chief: "As college teammates on a national championship team, Joe Brickner and I learned discipline, commitment and energy. All three values—combined with a sense of humor and an effective instruction method—make Joe’s book far more and better yet than another jock diary. His book applies to emerging business people and young athletes, plus anyone who wants structure and goals in life. Joe is still playing strong hoop as a septuagenarian. His book helps explain why. Enjoy it!"
Terry Hanson, former national network television executive with a career in professional sports management: "This book is a must read for all young and seasoned executives who aspire to up their game in the business world. Joe Brickner has a unique background as a player on a national championship basketball team, a successful college basketball coach and a seasoned business executive. His insights and experiences are invaluable and can coach the reader to a higher level in today's business world. This is a book that is hard to put down."
John Brown, Missouri All-American, Olympian, 1st round draft choice and multiple year starter for the Atlanta Hawks: "This book takes you into a world most do not understand, coaching at a small school with limited finances. It is a must read for anyone contemplating coaching."
