Sport and American Society is written by Mark Dyreson and published by Routledge. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1317997778 (ISBN 10) and 9781317997771 (ISBN 13).
A special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport, this collection of provocative essays explores the many faces of sport in America. Drawing upon insights from anthropology, history, philosophy and sociology and with reference throughout to politics and economics, the contributors outline the story of how American sport has contributed to a climate of insularity, exceptionalism and imperialism, from a symbolic rejection of British rule and British sports to the current status of all-American sports such as baseball and basketball in the face of globalization.
