Rethinking College Athletics

Autor Judith Andre
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 iul 1992
Why do colleges have intercollegiate athletics? Why should colleges keep them? Determining the values that are intrinsic to sport, this collection of essays explores how these values fit with the essential goals of universities. It also looks at the peculiar features of revenue-producing sports and asks whether these change the nature of sport.

Recenzii

"This timely and original collection addresses crucial issues in the areas of higher education, political culture, the sociology of leisure, and race relations."
Andre Markovits, Professor, Department of Political Science, Boston University

"From the practical to the fanciful, this book offers a broad range of views about what can be done about the problems in college sports...for readers interested in a topic about which there has been precious little thoughtful analysis, Rethinking College Athletics is a valuable addition to the debate."
The Christian Science Monitor

"The book...offers essays on the history, philosophy, aesthetics, and economics of college athletics.... [The] authors explore the benefits that sports bring to the athletes who play them, the spectators who watch them, and the institutions that sponsor them."
The Chronicle of Higher Education
