By recounting the untold story of the most influential sports campaign in British newspaper history, which turned concussion in professional rugby from a niche issue into front and back page news, Concussed poses the questions all sports lovers need answering.

Expanding his research from rugby to football, NFL and other contact sports, Sam Peters brings an unparalleled
breadth of experience, depth of knowledge and journalistic rigour to a subject he has written about and campaigned over for a decade.

Now sport's 'dirty secret' is out in the open, Peters asks: how can rugby and other sports save themselves from the
vested interests which threaten their very existence?

'There is a real sense of mission in his voice - and vitriol for those who held back the sport for so long' Observer

'Peters' work is in the greatest tradition of British journalism: fearless, unstoppable and committed to righting a profound wrong' Dan Snow
