Maddie Breeze 
Seriousness and Women’s Roller Derby [PDF ebook] 
Gender, Organization, and Ambivalence

This book explores seriousness in practice in the unique sports context of contemporary women’s flat track roller derby. The author presents a stimulating argument for a sociology of seriousness as a productive contribution to understandings of gender, organization and the mid-ranges of agency between dichotomies of voluntarism and determinism.
