TAILIEUCHUNG - Sport, Technology and the Body

In 1995, Zoe Warwick committed suicide. A dedicated bodybuilder and former European champion, a career of abusing steroids had culminated in the disintegration of her once flawless body. The medications pumped into her to keep her alive could not prevent system after system from shutting down, and, unable to cope with the pain, she took her own life.

Specifically it examines cultural resistance to the enhancement of athletes and explores the ways in which performance technologies complicate and confound our conception of the sporting body. The book addresses concerns about the technological invasion of the natural body to investigate expectations that athletic performances reflect nothing more than the actual capacity of the untainted athlete. By examining a series of case studies including Paralympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius Fastskin swimsuits hypoxic chambers and an array of illicit substances and methods the book distinguishes between internal and external technologies to highlight the ways that performance enhancement and public reaction to it can be read. Sport Technology and the Body offers a powerful challenge to conventional views of athletic performance that stand authenticity against artifice integrity against corruption and athletic purity against technological intrusion. It is essential reading for all serious students of the sociology culture or ethics of sport. Tara Magdalinski is the Academic Director of the Centre for Sports Studies at University College Dublin. Her research focuses on the construction of social identities and the production of historical narratives through sport.
