Arguing about sports is as old as the games people play. Over the years sports debates have become muddled by many myths that do not match the numbers generated by those playing the games. In The Wages of Wins, the authors use layman’s language and easy to follow examples based on their own academic research to debunk many of the most commonly held beliefs about sports.

Central chapters focus on Welles’ Macbeth, Othello, and Chimes at Midnight; Olivier’s Henry V, Hamlet, and Richard III; Brook’s King Lear; and Kurosawa’s Throne of Blood.
