Comparative Law Yearbook of Intl Business Vol 29 Book

Bob McCown, a well respected Canadian sports talk show host gives his opinion on 100 of the issues and debates surrounding the wonderful sport of hockey!

I was skeptical that I would enjoy reading a book that is solely one man's opinion. However, Bob generally does a good job of exploring the issues at hand, and he defends his opinions generally very well.

The book features one of the best stated arguments against fighting in hockey I have ever read,and the variety of topics covered in the book is commendable. From fun and whimsical ("What the NHL Will be like in 10 Years", "The Best Brother Combinations" ) to more serious issues ("Hits to the Head", "The Russian Transfer Dispute"), Bob covers them all!

I found myself nodding my head in agreement most of the time reading this book, and even when I did not agree with Bob on an issue, I generally found his argument to be thought provoking.

Any serious hockey fan would find this book to be an enjoyable exploration of the sport. There's been a new, revised edition out since mine has been published, but it seems to be of equal caliber!
