The Olympic Games bring together thousands of athletes, competing
in over 40 sports, and representing over 200 nations. But that is
just the surface, for none of this would be possible without the
constant efforts of an incredible organization consisting of tens
of thousands of sports lovers united in sports associations,
National Olympic Committees, and the International Olympic
Committee. The A to Z of the Olympic Movement deals with both
levels of the competition: the competitive side and the
administrative side. This is accomplished through a bibliography;
two chronologies_one tracing the history of the Ancient Olympiad
and the other tracing the Modern Games; appendixes providing facts
on the Games, the officials, the torchbearers, and the top Olympic
medal winners; and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries
on the major sports, more outstanding athletes, participating
countries and numerous bodies in the organization as well as
successive generations of officials_starting with the founder,
Pierre de Coubertin.
