"Read this for class but really liked it. I'd love to see an updated edition now that the world is the way it is. I'm sure there's all sorts of new sports-related economic/sociological information that could be thrown at us."
"An interesting use of Michael Jordan to show America's effects on globalization. Ch 7 really makes some interesting parallels. Remains fairly subjective throught the book."
