"This is the first book to focus on the topic of doping in esports. As the global esports industry continues to grow, this book critiques current anti-doping practices and considers the role that the World Anti-Doping Agency and the International Olympic Committee might play in creat-ing a sustainable anti-doping scheme. Drawing on new research, the book maps the instances of doping within esports, and considers the differences between esports and traditional sports, including the multiplicity of organisations - from federations to game publishers - that make up the complex governance structure of the esports industry. It argues that the WADA Code and well-established anti-doping mechanisms proven in traditional Olympic sports can provide a blueprint for improving anti-doping efforts within esports and strengthen the efficacy and legitimacy of esports governing bodies. This is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in esports, video games, sports and en-tertainment law, sport policy, sport management or the ethics of sport"-- Provided by publisher.
