Unfair Play is a well-argued and reasoned take on the controversy over transwomen in female sports. It will be of interest not just to those interested in the gender debate, but also those interested in women’s sports
Women’s sports are finally having a moment, with England recently winning the Euros, after decades of underinvestment and worse – this book shows why it is important to fight for them to remain reserved for biological women
It will also be of interest to sports fans more generally, particularly those interested in the Olympics, swimming and cheating/doping scandals in elite sport.
