[Gashaw Abeza]

Greetings Colleagues: As you may know, our co-edited book Social Media in
Sport: Theory and Practice
<https://www.worldscientific.com/worldscibooks/10.1142/12299> will be
released this coming July. You can now pre-order your free e-inspection
copy here: https://www.worldscientific.com/page/inspection-copy

Also, we would like to share with you a few words put forward about our
book by two of our great colleagues and leaders of the field of study:

"It is hard to imagine a more systematic treatment of the topics essential
to understanding the sport and social media nexus. The analyses that you
will find in Sport and Social Media cover all of the essential bases for
those interested in how social media has changed the face of our
contemporary experiences with sport."

*Dr Lawrence A Wenner, Von der Ahe Professor of Communication and Ethics,
Loyola Marymount University*

*Editor-in-Chief, Communication & Sport Journal*

"The content of this book is outstanding. The editors have studied and
published an astounding amount of social media and sport industry research.
They assembled an outstanding cast of diverse international scholars (who
range from prolific veteran researchers to emerging investigators) to join
them as authors. The book covers social media in the sport industry in an
exhaustive and engaging way."

*Dr Paul M Pedersen, Professor, Indiana University*

*Editor-in-Chief, International Journal of Sport Communication (IJSC)*
