This particular book is a collaboration focused on Sports law.More info: Sports
law is an umbrella term used to describe the legal issues at work in the world
of both amateur and professional sports. Sports law overlaps substantially with
labor law, contract law, antitrust law, and tort law. Issues like defamation
and privacy rights are also an integral aspect of sports law. The area of law
was established as a separate and important entity only a few decades ago,
coinciding with the rise of player-agents and increased media scrutiny of
sports law topics.
