Its presentation of the history is clear, cogent, and exhaustive."--Murray Sperber, Indiana University

"This book gathers in one place all the important information on historical, philosophical and legal aspects of women's sports. It enlivens this with interviews with the major players in the field and with real life stories that bring the major issues home to the reader. What's more, it recognizes the difficulties women's sports programs will continue to face as the cost of providing intercollegiate athletics rises."--Elsa Kircher Cole, General Counsel, National Collegiate Athletic Association
