Informationen zum Autor Matthew James McNees is visiting professor at the Ashby Residential College at UNC-Greensboro. He is the co-founder of Cyclus Sports, a professional cycling company created to influence cycling development, mentorship, performance, and research nationally. Klappentext Sport Philosophy Now examines the current sports philosophy available and updates it in the "post-Lance Armstrong" age. While many sports philosophers have turned a blind eye to the reality of sport by focusing on ideologically-driven abstract ideals, this book offers an engaging alternative. Examining the field primarily through the competitive world of cycling, Matthew James McNees explores such issues as authenticity in sport, our tendency to create superficial high-minded meaning from the actions of athletes, and American capitalism in sports.
