520    "Ortiz draws on studies he conducted over nearly three 
       decades that focus on the marital realities confronted by 
       women married to male professional athletes. These women, 
       who are usually portrayed in unflattering and/or 
       unrealistic terms, face enormous challenges in their 
       attempts to establish and maintain functional marital and 
       family lives while the husband routinely puts his career 
       first. Ortiz defines the traditional sport marriage as a 
       career-dominated marriage, illustrating how it encourages 
       women to contribute to their own subordination through 
       adherence to an unwritten rulebook and a repertoire of 
       self-management strategies. He explains how they make 
       invaluable contributions to their husbands' careers while 
       adjusting to public life and trying to maintain family 
       privacy, managing power and control issues, and coping 
       with pervasive groupies, overinvolved mothers, a culture 
       of infidelity, and husbands who prioritize team loyalty. 
       He gives these historically silent women a voice, offering
       readers perceptive and sensitive insight into what it 
       means to be a woman in the male-dominated world of 
       professional sports"--|cProvided by publisher.
