Media Reviews
"This will become the 'go-to' text for those interested in the ethics of coaching. Robert Simon has unerringly focused on the issues most in need of discussion, and solicited first-rate articles by important scholars. This book will be valuable for scholars but eminently usable in undergraduate courses as well." -Drew A. Hyland, Trinity College
