Offering a new history of drug use in sport, the book argues that taking drugs to enhance performance has not always been the crisis of 'evil' we now think it is. Reviewing the period from the late nineteenth century to the late twentieth century, this book chronicles our changing science and moral codes. Winner of the 2007 Lord Aberdare Literary Prize for the best book in British sports history.
