Description: "Despite International Olympic Committee president Juan Antonio Samarach's proclaiming the Sydney 2000 Olympics as the "best ever," the truth of the matter is much less one-sided. In The Best Olympics Ever? Helen Jefferson Lenskyi discloses what the Sydney 2000 Olympic industry suppressed: the real costs and impacts."--BOOK JACKET.
