<p><strong>'[This book] is the most comprehensive account ever written about the subject - it presents a timely and vital challenge to all of us about understanding and addressing the subtitles of "race" and racism in sport.'</strong> - <em>Jennifer Hargreaves, Brunel University</em><br /><br /><strong>'So often in books on sport there is no mention of "race", and in books on "race" there is no reference to sport. At last here is a superb and scholarly collection that brings the two together.'</strong> - <em>Heidi Safia Mirza, Middlesex University</em><br /><br /><strong>'The essays will make timely and important additions to required reading lists for undergraduate courses and graduate seminars and this, it is to be hoped, should motivate new thinking and scholarship.'</strong> - <em>The International Journal of the History of Sport</em></p>
