Review
Well-referenced, the book will be of most interest to social scientists and legal scholars, but it should also be required reading for university trustees and administrators, for elected officials whose purviews include oversight and governance of intercollegiate sports, and for professionals in the sports field. Recommended. Public, academic, lower-division undergraduate and up, and professional library collections.Choice
