A comprehensive overview of the role of economics in the intersection of sport and society
Brian Goff is a professor of economics at Western Kentucky University, and his latest book is Sports Economics Uncut (Edward Elgar), in which he explores sports as a mirror of the world and a powerful agent of change, and covers subjects ranging from racial discrimination to inequality, law enforcement, managers and risky decisions, club membership, and politics. Our reviewer is Harry Arne Solberg, and he found interesting information and perspectives, albeit with a distinct US-centric bias.
