"This book grows out of conference, New Agendas in Communication : Sort and Identity, convened at the University of Texas in February, 2013, to explore question : how is identity engaged in the performance and spectatorship of sport? By sports, we mean the whole range of mediated professional sports, but we also want to consider actual participation in sports."
