Reviews
"Sport in Contemporary Society forces students to think about issues they may never have been exposed to before and serves as a springboard for excellent class discussions."--Jennifer Lukow, High Point University "The book does an excellent job of presenting issues in the academic study of sports from a sociological perspective. It gives a very wide range of perspectives, both in terms of issues and authors. Students will enjoy both the subject matter (whether or not they care about sports) and the writing styles. This is a great choice for any sociology of sports class."--Buster G. Smith, Catawba College, "Sport in Contemporary Society forces students to think about issues they may never have been exposed to before and serves as a springboard for excellent class discussions."--Jennifer Lukow, High Point University"The book does an excellent job of presenting issues in the academic study of sports from a sociological perspective.
