Now available in paperback, this vital handbook marks the development
of sports studies as a major new discipline within the social
sciences. Edited by the leading sociologist of sport, Eric Dunning,
and Jay Coakley, author of the best selling textbook on sport in the
USA, it both reflects and richly endorses this new found status. Key
aspects of the Handbook include: an inventory of the principal
achievements in the field; a guide to the chief conflicts and
difficulties in the theory and research process; a rallying point for
researchers who are established or new to the field, which sets the
agenda for future developments; a resource book for teachers who wish
to establish new curricula and develop courses and programmes in the
area of sports studies. With an international and inter-disciplinary
team of contributors the Handbook of Sports Studies is comprehensive
in scope, relevant in content and far-reaching in its discussion of
future prospect.
