The Pleasure Principle: Sport for the Sake of Pleasure
David L. Andrews
Addresses the issue of sport as a form of pleasure, contending that sport, like any form of popular culture, reveals a lot about the society in which it appears. This book examines sports through Marxist, feminist, and poststructuralist viewpoints. It explores the intersections of sport and politics, sport and class, and sport and identity.
