The book was written to answer two questions. First, is there a relationship between athletic participation and criminal behavior? Second, what other connections-positive or negative-exist between sports and crime? To arrive at his answers, author Christopher S. Kudlac surveys professional, college, and high school sports in relation to crime, spectator crime, and gambling. Other topics include how urban sports programs help deter kids from getting involved in crime and how the use of sports in prisons has worked to positive effect. The book also examines the issues of aggression, masculinity, commercial incentives (or disincentives), and other contributing factors that may spur illegal activity among athletes and spectators. Looking at the subject from the perspectives of criminal justice and forensic psychology, Kudlac is able to uncover just how intertwined the two worlds are-for better or for worse. 000438531 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000438531 650_0 $$aSports$$xCorrupt practices$$zUnited States. 000438531 650_0 $$aCriminal behavior$$zUnited States. 000438531 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000438531 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKudlac, Christopher S.$$tFair or foul$$dSanta Barbara, Calif. : Praeger, 2010$$z9780313378256$$w(DLC) 2009053023$$w(OCoLC)496594526 000438531 8520_ $$bacq 000438531 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000438531 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=554302$$zOnline Access 000438531 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:438531$$pGLOBAL_SET 000438531 980__ $$aEBOOK 000438531 980__ $$aBIB 000438531 982__ $$aEbook 000438531 983__ $$aOnline
