Very insightful

This book provides a very insightful view of sport. The book does not male bash as another reviewer suggested. Instead it provides a glimpse into various areas of sport and the problems that exist. It provides a full range of views and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I highly recommend this book!

A wonderful glimpse into the scholarly perspective on sport.

My students use this text as an introduction to the scholarly world of sports. This is not a collection of empirical studies, but nor is it merely an anecdotal bashing of sport as an institution.A more international scope would strengthen the book, but what is here is thoughtfully organized and well presented.
