Details

The Brain Matters: Regulation of Concussion in Sports-related Injuries addresses the complex problem of sports-related concussion and the cumulative effect of exposure to repeated head trauma. Through understanding traditional and customary assumptions with regards to regulatory and policy-making approaches in sport, and by examining the role of sports associations and their governing bodies, the book demonstrates how we can achieve access to an optimally safe sports system for all participants.

  • A unique, accessible, and comprehensive analysis of the question of who owns the regulation of concussion in sports-related injuries
  • Authored by a leading expert in the area
  • Up to date commentary
