Sage (emeritus sociology and kinesiology, U. of Northern Colorado) introduces global sport to general readers and to undergraduate students of social sciences, including sport studies; it can
also be used by instructors to augment the material in a broader course, he suggests. He covers the transformation from local to national to global, global sport organizations, the global
migration of sports labor, production and promotion in the global sport business, global mass media, global politics, and future issues and trends in global sport. Annotation 穢2010 Book News,
