Women's sports have received much less attention from economists than from other social scientists. This Handbook fills that gap with a comprehensive economic analysis of women's sports. It also analyzes how the behavior and treatment of female athletes reflect broad economic forces.Contributors to this volume use current theoretical models and econometric tools to examine the legal, social, and economic forces that affect the experiences of female athletes. They address such traditional topics as discrimination against female athletes and coaches and the effect of athletic events on the economies of host countries. They also apply theory and estimation to new settings, such as how women respond to tournaments in skiing and figure skating or how the growing dominance of Korean women on the LPGA tour is a form of immigration.This groundbreaking book is a valuable resource for professors, students, and researchers in sports economics, sports management, and women's studies.Contributors: S.L. Averett, D.J. Berri, R. Booth, R.W. Brown, X. Che, D. Coates, J. Congdon-Hohman, S.M. Estelle, B.E. Fairweather, B. Frick, K.F. Gilsdorf, B.R. Humphreys, R.T. Jewell, J.-H. Kang, A.C. Krautmann, Y.H. Lee, Y. Lee, E.M. Leeds, M.A. Leeds, R. Levy, V.A. Matheson, S.S. Montgomery, I. Park, M.D. Robinson, R.M. Rodenberg, F. Scheel, S. Shmanske, J. Stull, V.A. Sukhatme, J. Treber, P. von Allmen
