description The third edition of this market-leading textbook on sports law remains as determinedly informed by a socio-legal approach as previous editions. Outwardly, the key developments in sports law encapsulated by this latest volume are the impact of the Human Rights Act 1998 on UK sport, the repercussions of the European Court of Justice’s decision in Deutscher Handballbund eV v Maros Kolpak (Case C-438/00) [2003] ECR I-4135 and the expansion of the World Anti-Doping Agency. Those issues reflect the consistently ambitious nature of this text, as it endeavours to provide its readers with a comparative analysis of sports law in Britain, the European Union and globally. More implicitly, this text reflects the ever deepening and widening nature of what some writers, with needless grandeur, occasionally refer to as lex sportiva.
