Table of ContentsReviews'Moving beyond earlier works on sport and alcohol which tend to focus on issues of masculinity, Catherine Palmer offers us unique insights into the broader complexities of contemporary sport and alcohol consumption. Palmer uses a series of case studies to explore important and largely overlooked questions related to a range of social factors that help us rethink drinking and sport. The book is essential reading for those interested in understanding how sport and alcohol play a role in reconfiguring individual and collective identities.' Steve Jackson, University of Otago, New Zealand 'In an era where sport and alcohol consumption are increasingly normalised, this book details insightful considerations on how to think about the subject differently, making a valuable contribution to sport and alcohol scholarship. As such, it is a compelling read, essential for anyone seeking a greater understanding of the social contexts of sport-related drinking.' Sarah Gee, Massey University, New Zealand Author InformationCatherine Palmer is Professor of Sociology and Head of the School of Social Sciences at the University of Tasmania, Australia. She is the author of Global Sports Policy. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
