Summary:	The experiences of ethnic 'other' females have - until recently - been widely overlooked in the study of sport. There continues to be a need to produce critical scholarship about ethnic 'other' girls and women in sport and physical culture, in order to represent their complex, multifarious and dynamic lived realities. This international collection of critical essays provides compelling insight into the lived realities of ethnic 'other' females in sport. Throughout the book, contributors either draw on the political consciousnesses of 'other' feminisms, or privilege the voices of ethnic 'other' girls and women so as to broaden, diversify and advance critical thinking pertaining to ethnic 'other' females in sport and physical culture. The purpose of the collection is both to produce knowledge and privilege otherwise subjugated knowledges, that individually and collectively present counter-narratives that better speak to the lived realities of racially oppressed groups of women and girls. This is important reading for all students and scholars with an interest in the sociology of sport, gender studies, or race and ethnicity studies.
