Outstanding Book Regarding Ethics in Athletics

Mr. Simon demonstrated thorough research and thought provoking writing on the subjects of sport and athletics. It is a book that anyone involved in athletics (in particular, intercollegiate athletics) MUST read! Buy two copies--one to keep for your own personal library and one to lend to a friend who is involved in athletics. This book opened my mind to different aspects of sport and athletics. Simply a must read!!!
