- catalog abstract "In an age of sports hero idolatry, it is essential to understand the relationship between male athletes and violence against women. Athletes and Acquaintance Rape unravels the controversy of this topic by focusing on three high-profile cases involving professional athletes who have been charged with sexual assault. Jeffrey R. Benedict provides a brief history on each athlete and traces the chronology of events leading up to the charges of sexual assault and the results of those charges. By examining specific aspects of the professional athlete's life, Benedict reveals a climate predisposed to committing violence against women, moreover, he exposes a system that provides star athletes with protection from punishment and conviction. This book will prove useful for academics, practitioners, and students in several fields, including sociology, psychology, gender studies, law, sport management, educational administration, violence against women, and family violence.".
