Description: Organized sport as we know it is not an expression of social consensus or of continuing progress towards a better world, nor is it a homogeneous, cohesive entity. This book invites us to consider the hidden face of Canadian sport. Has there been equal opportunity for the various social classes and ethnic groups, and between men and women? What role has television, the writer of sports fiction, or the established church in Quebec had in deciding what games can be played and who can play them? What are the implications of state involvement in sport?
