Description

Richard Pound is well known to most Canadians as our representative on the International Olympic Committee, and as an impassioned crusader against the use of drugs in sport.

Richard Pound's interests are wide, and his commitment to improving the world community strong. He has dealt with many of the most difficult challenges affecting institutions, and their ethics and governance. He has proved to be a significant agent of accountability and change. These truths shine clearly through this compilation of Pound's written work: Op-Ed pieces; essays; letters to the editor; and general musings. From the Olympics, to the Supreme Court, to taxes, to political respect, Pound has much to say. And he says it well. Much to think about in this collection of 50 published opinions.
