Critics Review
Acclaim for the first edition:
‘The Handbook on International Sports Law provides an excellent overview and critical analysis of the most significant sports law matters facing the global community of sports and the industry it serves. James A.R. Nafziger and Ryan Gauthier lead an impressive team of sports law scholars and experts in a discussion of crucial issues, including player health controversies and restrictions on competition that interface with antitrust and labor laws. The Handbook will provide a valuable resource to students who are studying international and comparative sports law as well as practitioners and academics.’ – Michael McCann, University of New Hampshire, USAcclaim for the first edition:
‘Despite taking a wide variety of forms, sport is universal. Circumstances and events generating legal issues in sport are similarly universal, but sport operates under many legal systems worldwide. Fragmentation and inconsistency in legal outcomes often result. This innovative collection of essays by leading scholars of sports law addresses a gap in the literature. It advances understanding of how different legal systems respond to common issues and offers insights into the developing international system of sports law. Researchers will find this book of inescapable assistance and interest.’ – Hayden Opie, Melbourne Law School, Australia‘Nafziger and Ross have provided an enormously useful collection of incisive and integrating essays that cover the gamut of important issues in the emerging field of international sport law.’ – Andrew Zimbalist, Smith College, USAbout The Author
