Cheating in Sport

In the wake of the Renault deliberate crash, Bloodgate, and Eduardo's onfield acrobatics, Le Monde just ran an interview with me on cheating in sport: Pourquoi les sportifs trichent-ils?

You can read an earlier piece I wrote on sports cheats just before the 2006 World Cup for Radio 4's (now defunct) The Sports Programme here.

On the related question of whether genetic enhancement in sports is a good thing, listen to my podcast interview with Michael Sandel on this topic for the Ethics Bites podcast.
