"This book explores three crucial areas in sport that remain huge concerns for women: leadership, money, and media. It examines topics such as the #MeToo movement, pay equity, and the experiences of women of color and LGBTQ athletes. Interviews with prominent female athletes are interwoven throughout to add personal perspectives to the conversation"--Provided by publisher.

Reveals the ways that the differences between women and men manifest themselves with female athletes, discussing how female athletes communicate primarily by talking, collaborate during times of stress, worry about themselves and others, express empathy for each other, and want to have fun in sports.
