This provocative study of anti-doping regimes in global sport argues that the current system is at a critical historical juncture. Reviewing the recent history of anti-doping, it highlights serious problems within the World Anti-Doping Agency and warns that we could be facing the collapse of anti-doping, both as a policy and an ideology. "This is a significant contribution in clearly describing the labyrinth of a global anti-doping system that is ineffective in fulfilling its intended purpose - catching cheats. Equally, the book powerfully conveys how athletes as a key stakeholder are disempowered within the global anti-doping system. Moreover, the book conveys a number of powerful examples that demonstrate the unjust and harmful impact that the application of the WADA Code has on athletes - an issue that to date has largely been absent from the public discourse ? an important resource for athletes, their representatives, sports administrators, and the public at large." - Brendan Schwab and Matthew Graham, World Players Association "Anti-Doping regulation in elite sport has come a long way in recent decades, but as we've seen recently, it still has a long way to go. Paul Dimeo and Verner Møller bring to this issue an informed, independent perspective that is critical yet constructive, provocative yet pragmatic. Everyone involved in anti-doping - whether administrator, athlete or other - should read this important, eye-opening book." - Roger Pielke Jr., Center for Science and Technology Policy Research, University of Colorado
