Injury in US Baseball and the Politics of ‘Tommy John Surgery’ -- 20 Is Injury “On Brand”? Examining the Contexts of the CrossFit Injury Connection -- 21 ‘This must be done right, so we don’t lose the income’: Medical care and commercial imperatives in mixed martial arts -- 22 Vanguards on The Starting Line: Race, Work, and Dissent in Sport Dystopian films from Rollerball to The Hunger Games -- Part 6: Sport and Injury – Case Studies -- 23 Injury and Olympics Politics, 1896-1988 -- 24 Fits and Starts: Re-examining the Mystery of Brazil’s Ronaldo and the Rumours Swirling Around his Controversial Role in the World Cup final of 1998 -- 25 The Cricket Pitch as ‘Unsafe Workplace’: Sports Culture and the Death of Phillip Hughes -- 26 Muhammad Ali, Sport Celebrity and Perceptions of Parkinson’s Disease -- 27 ‘Snipers Stop Play’: The Israeli Defence Force and the Shooting of Palestinian Footballers -- Part 7 Sport, Harm and the Politics of Wellbeing -- 28 The politics of safeguarding and protecting children in sport in England -- 29 Sidelined: Boys, Sport, and Depression -- 30 Injuries in Schools’ Rugby: Occasional Niggles and Scrapes?.

This book looks historically at the harm that has been inflicted in the practice of sport and at some of the issues, debates and controversies that have arisen as a result. Written by experts in history, sociology, sport journalism and public health, the book considers sport and injury in relation to matters of social class; gender; ethnicity and race; sexuality; political ideology and national identity; health and wellbeing; childhood; animal rights; and popular culture. These matters are, in turn, variously related to a range of sports, including ancient, pre- and early industrial sports; American football; boxing; wrestling and other combat sports; mountaineering; horseracing; cycling; motor racing; rugby football; cricket; association football; baseball; basketball; Crossfit; ice hockey; Olympic sports; Mixed Martial Arts; and sport in an imagined dystopian future.
