Though Americans spend more than $25 million on sports and sporting
events, this book argues that the influence of sports on our lives
is even more profound than this huge economic force would seem to
suggest. Exploring such topics as the role of sports in the
creation of mass culture, cheating, the abuse of illegal drugs, the
strange and fascinating role that numbers play in sporting events,
and the future of spectator sport, this book attempts to gauge the
vast impact that sports have on American culture. The author draws
from new work in such fields as history, economics, politics,
sociology, psychology, and ethics to support his claims.
