When I taught Philosophy of Sport at USF in the Fall semester of 2011, I used the following anthology: McNamee, Mike; *The Ethics of Sports: A Reader;* paperback, 1st edition; Routledge, 2010; ISBN-13: 978-0415478618 It contains 2 papers that I think are relevant to your student's research interests - the 2nd paper, in particular, goes into great detail on the East German state sponsorship of doping: "The athletes’ viewpoint” – Verner Møller (pp. 160-168) “Sport and the systematic infliction of pain: a case study of state-sponsored mandatory doping in East Germany” – Giselher Spitzer (pp. 413-425) Also, I'm not as certain about this, but I believe William Morgan's book might be helpful as well: *Leftist Theories of Sport: A Critique and Reconstruction *– William Morgan Also, through an abandoned project of my own, I am somewhat familiar with the following books that might be relevant: A History of Drug Use in *Sport* 1876-1976 : Beyond Good and Evil<http://ehis.ebscohost.com/eds/viewarticle?data=dGJyMPPp44rp2%2fdV0%2bnjisfk5Ie46bFOs6quUa6k63nn5Kx94um%2bSa6lskewpq9Lnqm4SrOwr0mexss%2b8ujfhvHX4Yzn5eyB4rOxSbSpr0mwr7Y%2b6tfsf7vb7D7i2LuG6tvgg6Tq33%2b7t8w%2b3%2bS7SrCnrkqunOSH8OPfjLvc84Tq6uOQ8pzljePp8lXS6PN9&hid=105> By: Dimeo, Paul.
