      abstract = {Athletes are always aiming to be faster, better, stronger.  New techniques to enhance their sporting performance have  increasingly been linked to use of novel psychoactive  substances (NPS) and other hard-to-detect substances like  performance-enhancing drugs. This book offers a timely  analysis of the new challenges posed by this phenomenon in  the anti-doping community. The authors present the first  comprehensive perspective on the rapidly shifting doping  scenario and reflect on use, regulation, policy, and market  structure of NPS used in sports. They highlight the  challenges with the list of prohibited substances and  methods in and out of competition. They also evaluate how  methods to detect new drugs present an ongoing battle for  doping control as they have to be adapted constantly.  Topics covered within the chapters include: Contamination  of Sports Supplements with Novel Psychoactive Substances  Untested Supplement Use Among Athletes: An Overlooked  Phenomenon? International Drug Control: Protecting the  Health of the Athlete Analysis of New Chemical Entities in  a Sport Context Emerging Drugs in Sport establishes a clear  benchmark on the policy discussion, drawing from available  evidence and sources, including athletes' personal  experiences, to generate a fact-based resource that informs  a research as well as wider audience. The book is essential  reading for those working in anti-doping, substance misuse,  sports, ethics, and human enhancement. It also is useful  for policy-makers, legislative personnel, and other  professionals with an interest in protecting clean sport.},
