| Abstract | "In these essays, leading scholars tackle a wide range of subjects, including the ways in which people root for their teams and the uses of technology to cultivate fan communities. Taking an interdisciplinary approach through the fields of communication, psychology and telecommunications, this collection explores modern fans, their motives, culture, and their identification with sports and individual teams"--Provided by publisher. |
