According to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission, in a given
year there are approximately 1,290,000 medically treated injuries
in football, 1,230,000 in baseball, and 1,180,000 in basketball.
This book traces appellate court opinions which have involved
sports injury cases from 1875 to the present and presents an
analysis which explains why the courts in the US have generally not
permitted compensation, how we as a nation established violent
sports then fail to compensate the injured, and how even athletes
with insurance coverage have seen their families financially
devastated when their insurance failed.
