A long read but well worth it, it probably does not have to be in the clinic but doping is mentioned.

Anybody who writes a book "about Lance" and only mentions the doping accusations as an ancillary footnote is not a credible author. The fact is Armstrong doped to win his Tours according to the evidence (i.e. the failed EPO tests in '99 and eyewitness accounts by Landis and unnamed others according to federal grand jury leaks).
Anything associated with Lance - whether it's his foundation or his legacy - is all linked to those Tour de France wins. Without them, he's got nothing. And he can't admit to winning them through doping because that would ruin his legacy. Since he won those races while doped to the gills, I'm not sure why I should care about anything the guy says, let alone any hanger-on who writes about him.
This book is right up there with a book about Marion Jones extolling her 2000 Sydney Olympic gold medals or Barry Bonds home run domination without mentioning those records were only possible because of BALCO.
Lance is a con man. Everybody in the sport knows he doped and the fact that he is so comfortable lying to everyone about it - especially all the cancer sufferers who think he is God - is really sad.
Bicycling Magazine is circling the drain in an Internet age where print edition sales have tanked and their advertising dollar trend looks like the slope of a World Cup downhill. I guess they're trying to milk the whole 'Lance effect' for its last dollar before he's indicted and/or charged with a doping offense by USADA.
