Opis: The Rodchenkov Affair - Grigory Rodchenkov

How I Brought Down Putin’s Secret Doping Empire
The full story behind Oscar award-winning Icarus One of the Financial Times`s `Fifty people who shaped the decade` `The biggest sports scandal the world has ever seen` In 2015, Russia`s Anti-Doping Centre was suspended by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) following revelations of an elaborate state-sponsored doping programme at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics. Involving a nearly undetectable steroid delivery system known as `Duchesse cocktail`, tampering and switching of urine samples, and a complex state-sanctioned cover-up, the programme was masterminded by Grigory Rodchenkov. The Rodchenkov Affair tells the full, unadulterated story that was first glimpsed in Bryan Fogel`s award-winning documentary and still continues to captivate and shock the world. Charting the author`s childhood growing up under the Iron Curtain, his first encounter with doping as a 22-year-old student athlete at Moscow State University, and his subsequent career working for the Soviet Olympic Committee, this breathtakingly candid journey reveals a rigged system of flawed individuals, brazen deceit and impossible moral choices.
