Readers will get an insider's look at the problem of drug use in the pursuit of athletic gold in Drugs, Sport, and Politics. Dr. Robert Voy, former Chief Medical Officer for the United States Olympic Committee, tells what drugs are being used and who's using them, how accessible and dangerous black market drugs are, which officials and organizations may have covered up positive drug tests, and how the problem of drugs in sport can be solved.
This book shed more light on the problems of drugs in sports than I thought possible. The lengths that people go to cover up their abuse of performance enhancing drugs amazes me. I knew there was common drug use among elite level athletes ... but this is almost scary.
