About this title

From the Back Cover

Examines issues surrounding the use of performance-enhancing drugs in sports from different perspectives. Discusses the dangers of steroid use, and its place, if any, in competitive sports. Do performance-enhancing drugs constitute cheating — or can they be beneficial for certain types of sports? Also looks at the role of management and peer pressure in performance-enhancing drug use, as well as programs designed to prevent it.
