Fascinating and ground-breaking study of women’s sport in Brazil
Women and Sport in Brazil: Many Roles, a Single Struggle, edited by Katia Rubio (Editora Laços) shows the development of women athletes in Brazilian Olympic sports. The book presents stories of women who overcame various barriers to make it to the Olympic Games, and to make history. Alan Bairner, well up on male Brazilian athletes, primarily footballers, and with little insights into women and sports, now knows considerably more and intends to make it his business to continue to take an interest in women’s sport in Brazil.
