Sporting events, seen from the perspective of both participant and spectator, have risen to the level of religious conviction over the years. The passion, the bond, and the sacrifice involved is shared by countless people fascinated with "the game."

Psyche and Sports offers a look at a variety of sports from the collective, mythical and psychological perspective, from the viewpoints of both spectators and players, in a collection that spans the history and universality of the human psyche at play.
