Ethics in Sport, Fourth Edition, offers a total of 33 essays from influential authors. These essays provide readers with classic and contemporary views on ethical issues in today's sport culture.

The fourth edition of Ethics in Sport contains nine new essays that address the latest topics in the world of sport that have provoked widespread controversy. These issues concern, among other things, whether esports (electronic sports) are bona fide sports, whether gamesmanship is acceptable in sports competition, and whether transgender athletes who transition from male to female should be allowed to compete in sports reserved for women and under what conditions.

Each part begins with an introduction that encapsulates relevant ethical concepts and contextualizes the issues in the upcoming essays. Throughout the text, discussion questions prompt students to reflect on the information presented and to consider how ethical issues affect our society and their own lives. An instructor guide offers tools to facilitate these discussions as well as over 50 assignment recommendations.

With a wealth of new essays, Ethics in Sport, Fourth Edition, offers philosophical insights from the most influential minds in the study of ethics and keeps readers abreast of current issues.
