Description

Pain and injury are common realities for elite athletes. This book from Routledge challenges the standard medical model by arguing that these experiences cannot be understood through physiology alone. Instead, it explores how social and cultural processes shape the way athletes perceive and handle physical damage. Readers will find a deep examination of the culture surrounding the practice of playing through pain. The text raises important social and ethical questions regarding the roles played by coaches and medical staff in athlete care. It also addresses the ethics of the deliberate infliction of pain in competitive sports and the complex use of drugs in athletic environments. By providing three distinct perspectives on the topic, this work offers a comprehensive look at the intersection of ethics and sport. It is an essential resource for those looking to understand the human and social dimensions of athletic injury beyond simple medical definitions.
