"Body and Mind : Sport in Europe from the Roman Empire to the Renaissance traces the evolution of sport in Western Europe from the arenas and chariot races of the early modern period, to the triumph of personal decorum and scientific rationalism in the seventeenth century. Offering a new and original perspective on the relationship between sport and society, this unique study will be of great interest to all historians of sport and culture."--Jacket
