Thomas Hauser

Chernobyl: The Final Warning is a moving eyewitness portrait that takes readers from the inner sanctums of Soviet hospitals to the devastated reactor itself. It recreates the drama of international diplomacy - in the limelight and behind the scenes - in a dramatic struggle against death. In the wake of the Chernobyl disaster, Dr. Gale, an expert on bone marrow transplantation, was summoned to Moscow by Mikhail Gorbachev, then General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, to help by leading a team of international and local physicians in treating the victims. Despite volunteering to travel to the other side of the world to help aide victims and the team, Gale and the other members of the US-Israeli team had to work under the severe restrictions placed upon them. In Chernobyl: the Final Warning, the doctor discusses the tragedy, the diseases it would ultimately trigger, the environmental damage caused on a global scale and hope for a safer world. Dr. Robert Gale gives an eye-opening account of the intrigue and competition between the United States and Soviet Union. Written with Thomas Hauser, this book tells the full story of his historic journey and offers a penetrating analysis of the nature of nuclear energy and nuclear weapons, their development, and the role they will play in our future. Chernobyl: The Final Warning has been adapted into a much-admired movie starring Jon Voight and Jason Robards. Its message is cold, bleak and urgent, but also one of hope. NEW Afterward written in 2020, 34 years after the Chernobyl disaster.

Thomas Hauser is among the most decorated boxing writers ever. He burst upon the fistic scene four decades ago with publication of The Black Lights: Inside the World of Professional Boxing and followed that triumph with Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times-the definitive biography of the man who was once the most famous person on earth. Hauser is the only person to be honored by the Boxing Writers Association of American with both the Nat Fleischer Award for Career Excellence in Boxing Journalism and the A. J. Liebling Award for Outstanding Boxing Writing. On ten occasions, articles he has written have been designated by the BWAA as the "best investigative journalism of the year." The Most Honest Sport continues Hauser's tradition of excellence and includes all of his articles about boxing from 2023 and 2024. As always, Hauser chronicles the big fights and gives readers a behind-the-scenes look at the sport's biggest stars. He shines a penetrating light on the murky world of illegal performance enhancing drugs and explores how the Saudi Arabian General Entertainment Authority has become the most powerful force in boxing today-and perhaps ever.

Thomas Hauser has written books that have become part of the American dialogue. Missing, Muhammad Ali: His Life and Times, and Final Warning: The Legacy of Chernobyl are testament to that. MY MOTHER and me is a different kind of book. Eleanor Nordlinger Hauser's life story is told in MY MOTHER and me as only a gifted writer and loving son could tell it. It's the story of a woman who experienced soaring highs and hard falls, deconstructed and rebuilt her life several times, grew old gracefully, met the struggles of old age without complaint and, ultimately, felt that she had lived long enough and was ready to die. Hauser's mother knew that he'd be writing this book. "And I want you to be honest," she told him. "Don't make me out to be a saint. You should put in the things I did wrong too.""And the affairs were part of our marriage," she added. "You can write about them too. It wouldn't be much of a book if you left them out." MY MOTHER and me is a portrait of a remarkable woman and a moving exploration of the bond between a mother and son. It's a special book worthy of attention.
