Rugby Union and Professionalisation: Elite Player Perspectives

By Mike Rayner

This is the first book to focus on rugby union's transition from an amateur to a professional sport and how it has dealt with the realities of commercialism and a more diverse spectating public. Based on interviews with players from eight leading rugby nations, it offers a perspective on how rugby has evolved into a global product.
