Reuters - Sport в 21st Century
766 Illustrations in colour
Reuters photographers are there to record it all, creating many of the finest sporting images of our times. Defining moments of virtuosity, beauty, comedy, triumph and despair are captured here in over
750 brilliant photographs of the new sporting century … the dramas, the personalities and the stories behind every picture, covering over
120 sports in almost 60 countries.
An illustrated timeline summarizes the sporting highlights of each year of the 21st century.
Here too are the big themes in sport:
• What are the values of sport today?
• What does success mean in an age of commercial sponsorship and celebrity?
• With advances in technology and performance-enhancing drugs, what is fair play?
