    On Level Terms gives readers an inside look at 10 legal battles in the United States and Europe that have had a lasting influence on the game as we know it today. From the demise of the North American Soccer League and the rise of Major League Soccer in the United States to the prosecution of England captain John Terry for alleged racist conduct and Belgian journeyman Jean Marc Bosman's quest to gain free agency for players in Europe, On Level Terms is the first book of its kind.
