There's more to sports than the ethos of competition, entertainment, and commercialism expressed in popular media and discourse. Sport, Philosophy, and Good Lives discusses sport in the context of several traditional philosophical questions. Randolph Feezell draws from current sports issues, popular literature, and contemporary sports figures to shed light on the attraction and value of sports.
