Overview: Editorial Review

Drugs, Sport, and Politics gives you an insider's look at the problem of drug use in the pursuit of athletic gold. Author Dr. Robert Voy served for five years as the Chief Medical Officer and Director of Sports Medicine and Science for the United States Olympic Committee (USOC). During that time, he discovered a dark, ugly side of the Olympic experience--one where athletes will do whatever it takes to win.

Voy's personal account tells you

* what drugs are being used and who's using them,

* why present methods of drug testing don't work,

* which officials and organizations may have covered up positive drug tests, and

* how the USOC can help to solve the problem of drugs in sport.

Drugs, Sport, and Politics is fascinating reading for athletes, coaches, and spectators alike!
