?The chronicle is well informed and draws from a highly diverse set of sources: archives of the protest organizations, correspondence, interviews, and newspaper accounts. The result is a source book of rare richness.?-Perspective

?Lapchick and Urdang's work is an important addition to the material on contemporary Southern African women. Its level ... makes it accessible to a general audience. The authors have drawn from United Nations documents; South African newspapers, research reports, government policy statements; and interviews with participants in the various resistance activities documented. As a revision of papers prepared for the World Conference of the United Nations Decade for Women in Copenhagen in 1980, the work's focus is the present apartheid system and efforts to abolish it.?-International Journal of African Historical Studies

Bridging the gap between scholarship and journalism, Sport in Society takes on major contemporary topics - race, gender and violence - as they play out in the world of sports. The editors bring together well known writers to examine many of the more pressing issues that sports are confronting. The role of the media, the international scene and some real life heroes are also discussed.
