More about the book

Focusing on ancient Greek principles, this book presents a tripartite model of sports ethics that emphasizes personal, civic, and global integration. Authors Heather Reid and Mark Holowchak propose a balanced approach, termed the "golden mean," to navigate between commercialism and recreationalism in sports. Aimed primarily at students and academics, it also appeals to professionals in the sports field, offering a philosophical framework for understanding competition in contemporary contexts.
