This is the first book-length treatment of the ethics of sport from a virtue theoretical stance, drawing upon ancient Greek sources and culminating in a critical consideration of the promises and dangers of biomedical technology in elite sports. Written by one of the world's foremost sports philosophers, it includes a wealth of contemporary sporting examples.
