	Sport And Society History, Power And Culture by Graham Scambler,
	Price : Rs 665.00
	Your Price : Rs 598.50

This is a succinct and comprehensive account of the contemporary sociology of sport. It
starts by tracing the key `moments? in the transition from pre-modern to modern sport,
giving detailed accounts of the athletic competition in the ancient games at Olympia; the
genesis of modern track-and-field athletics in nineteenth-century England; and the
reconstruction by de Coubertin and unfolding of the Olympic movement through the
twentieth century.
The third section critically analyses the various theoretical approaches adopted by
sociologists, and presents a distinctive new theoretical framework for understanding
the changing role of sport in society in the era of global disorganized capitalism.
