Soccer and Philosophy by Ted Richards, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

This collection of incisive articles gives a leading team of international philosophers a free kick toward exploring the complex and often hidden contours of the world of soccer. What does it really mean to be a fan (and why should we count Aristotle as one)? Why do great players such as Cristiano Ronaldo count as great artists (up there alongside Picasso, one author argues)? From the ethics of refereeing to the metaphysics of bent (like Beckham) space-time, this book shows soccer fansand philosophy buffs alike new ways to appreciate and understand the world's favorite sport. | Soccer and Philosophy by Ted Richards, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
