Think you know everything there is to know about hockey? Here's a whole new look at Canada's favourite sport: from the perspective of science. Newly revised and updated with the latest NHL rules, How Hockey Works was first published in 2002 in the How Sports Work series.

Fully illustrated and in a format that matches the proportions of an ice rink, How Hockey Works explains all the basics. Along with a glossary and a "Rules & Regs" section are inspiring stories from professional men's and women's hockey.

"Even after spending 15 years as a player in the NHL, I gained new insights from reading How Hockey Works. This book will score with fans and players alike." --Ron Ellis, Hockey Hall of Fame

"A colourful, informative book packed with hockey history, science and trivia." --Calgary Herald

Ages 8-12.
