A hugely important book which will help raise awareness of the hidden risks of heading footballs while exploring a better future where brain trauma is no longer an acceptable 'occupational hazard' for footballers.

Football has a lot skeletons in its closet, but none more scary than the long, sorry history of concussion. brain damage and heading. Is it possible to imagine the game without headers? Is it possible to just go on when so many players are suffering so badly from the damage caused? Kevin Moore has served us all well by weighing the evidence, telling the stories and asking the really difficult questions about what the game should do and how it might change.
