About the Author
Joe Kennedy is from the north-east of England and teaches English and Cultural Studies on the University of Gothenburg's programme at the University of Sussex in Brighton. He writes on literature, critical and cultural theory, politics, music and sport for a range of publications. His first book, Games Without Frontiers offered a radical reappraisal of our understanding of association football.
Reviews
"Treats football with the kind of serious analysis it deserves but rarely gets."
"A rich exploration of football in its broadest sense - not as merely a set of match results, statistics and tactical approaches but as a living social entity."
"A successful attempt to think through the nature of football's significance."
"Games Without Frontiers forces us to see philosophy and football in a new relation: as inherently connected rather than as opposites."
