After the young South African athlete Caster Semenya won the 800m title at the 2009 World Championships she was obliged to undergo gender testing and was withdrawn, for a time, from international competition. Her case became a cause célèbre and represents a rich, multi-layered example of the construction of gender in wider society and the interrelationships between sport, culture and the media. This is the first book to explore the case in depth, from socio-cultural, ethical and legal perspectives. Including discussion of key concepts such as 'intersexuality' and 'fairness', it is fascinating reading for anybody with an interest in sport studies, gender studies or biomedical ethics.
