My Name’5 Doddie

Doddie Weir, Black and White Publishing, £20

During a distinguished rugby career, Doddie faced some of the greatest players in the game, from Jonny Wilkinson to Jonah Lomu.

Now, at the age of 48, he is facing an entirely different adversary: Motor Neurone Disease. Never being one to shy away from a challenge, he has met MND full on.

His is a story that will appeal to everyone, not just rugby fans.
