Beyond the Finish Line: Images, Evidence, and the History of the Photo-Finish
Jonathan Finn
A fascinating journey through the history of the photo-finish in sports, and a lively biography of a critical technology, this book illuminates the cultural role of the photo-finish in win-at-all-costs culture and warns that in our pursuit for precision we may threaten the human element of sport that galvanizes mere spectators into fans.
