In this book, Anderson exposes boxing?.'exemption' from contemporary legal and social norms. Reviewing all aspects of boxing - historical, legal, moral, ethical, philosophical, medical, racial and regulatory - he concludes that the supposition that boxing has a (consensual) immunity from the ordinary law of violence, based primarily on its social utility as a recognised sport, is not as robust as is usually assumed. Many aspects of the professional code unsettle me, and it is that sense of unease that this personal study seeks to confront. 4aBoxing-Law and Legislation-Great Britain 4aBoxing-Law and Legislation-United States  a10712/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10713/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10713/MKRI-P/XI-2008  a10712/MKRI-P/XI-2008
