Fundamentals of sports ethics / Gregg Twietmeyer.
"Many students come into a sports ethics with no previous exposure to academic philosophy. As a result, students no longer have basic philosophic literacy. Fundamentals of Sports Ethics, Third Edition, sets a serious philosophic foundation upon which readers can engage sports ethics. The book introduces basic philosophic concepts that far too often sport philosophers take for granted and with which students struggle. The text is written in a hybrid format in which each chapter of the text is followed by a set of "philosophic selections" from philosophy, literature and journalism. This format is a vital tool for helping students bridge the gap between "abstract" philosophical ideas and the "real world" of sport." -- Back cover.
