Book Description

Publication Date: October 31, 2001 | ISBN-10: 1840644214 | ISBN-13: 978-1840644210

The economics of sport exploded onto the academic teaching and research scene in the 1990s. This decade of intellectual effervescence is encapsulated in this state of the art collection which reprints both classic work and more recent papers which may achieve classic status in the future. Andrew Zimablist - widely recognized to be the leading authority in the field - has prepared a selection of articles which mark an important milestone in the development of sports economics. It should be a useful source of reference to a rapidly growing and widely dispersed literature.
