Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text offers a survey of the discipline of sport communication. The authors explore communication within, through, and for sport in all its theoretical, conceptual, cultural, behavioral, practical and managerial aspects, tracing the contours of this expansive, transdisciplinary and international discipline and demonstrating that there are few aspects of sport that don't rely on effective communications. Including contributions from sport media and communications scholars and professionals from around the world, the book examines emerging media, social media, traditional (print, broadcast and screen) media, sociological themes in communication in sport, and management issues, at every level, from the interpersonal to communication within and between sport organisations and global institutions.--adapted from publisher's description.
