Football is the world's most popular sport. It is a cultural
phenomenon and a global media spectacle. For its billions of fans,
it serves as a common language. But where does its enduring
popularity come from? Featuring essays from prominent experts in
the field, scholars and journalists, this Companion covers ground
seldom attempted in a single volume about football. It examines the
game's oft-disputed roots and traces its development through
Europe, South America and Africa, analysing whether resistance to
the game is finally beginning to erode in China, India and the
United States. It dissects the cult of the manager and how David
Beckham redefined sporting celebrity. It investigates the game's
followers, reporters and writers, as well as its most zealous money
makers and powerful administrators. A valuable resource for
students, scholars and general readers, The Cambridge Companion to
Football is a true and faithful companion for anyone fascinated by
the people's game.
