About
This book examines the roles that sporting traditions have played in human society from primitive cultures to the present day. Does sport begin simply for practical reasons such as training soldiers for war, or do humans have a less practical need to play active, physical games? How different sports migrated around the world, and what effect have new cultures had on theses imports?
