Sport revolves around two things: narrative & numbers. You need the narrative, otherwise why would anyone care about sport? Rivalries, emotions, & sporting legends all require it. But sport also needs numbers. Without them, we have no idea who has won. We need numbers to tell which team is top of the table, or who is the world champion. Sport Geek is a visual & numerical tour through sporting debates & ideas. Teams in all sports use data to create extraordinary analysis of how their players perform, to assess tactics & to get an edge over arch rivals; but fans are rarely presented with challenging & informative data that would help them to further understand sport. Find out why Usain Bolt`s 200m world record is really a big disappointment, whether big sports stars earn more from prize money or sponsorship, learn what the best sport to make a film about is, & what the Flo-Jo problem is. In Sport Geek Rob Minto brings together an encyclopaedic knowledge & love of sport, a rigorous & painstaking understanding & research of statistics with passionate & serious analysis. There`s nothing academic about the way in which Sport Geek is presented, nor the way Rob has unfolded its many stories, but it has been written with the knowledge of an expert with access to cutting edge quantitative analysis & difficult to uncover data. With international breadth & appeal & covering almost every imaginable sport, Sport Geek embraces our global enthusiasm for competitive sport & will arm any sports fan with invaluable information that will give the edge in any sporting debate. Sport Geek is packed with success stories & failures, with anomalies & surprises. What makes this stand out from competing titles is the analysis & contextualisation of the data
- in other words, until now it`s not yet been clear why the data is interesting to fans.
