Book excerpt: Enthusiasts who want something less conventional than traditional skateboarding might look into two other related sports: street luge and dirtboarding. This book explores these two offshoots of skating that have much in common with the winter sports luge and snowboarding, while also highlighting these sports’ unique attractions. Street luge gives riders the speed they may not get from regular skating, while dirtboarding enthusiasts like being able to skate on uneven terrain year-round, with or without snow. From safety and equipment to beginner lessons and beyond, this book is a valuable resource for skaters looking to go off the beaten path.

Book excerpt: This third edition takes a fresh approach to the study of sport, presenting key concepts such as socialization, race, ethnicity, gender, economics, religion, politics, deviance, violence, school sports and sportsmanship. While providing a critical examination of athletics, this text also highlights many of sports' positive features. This new edition includes significantly updated statistics, data and information along with updated popular culture references and real-world examples.

Another new topic is the "pay for play" movement, wherein college athletes demanded greater compensation and, at the very least, the right to profit from their own names, images and likenesses.
