Description

In today's culture, sports wield a weight influence; this influence, however, is rarely examined.

Similar to the first edition, this second edition of Learning Culture Through Sports provides coaches, educators, parents, and others dealing with students and athletes with an engaging and critical context for probing the sociological basis of this influence.

The book's sections each address a particular issue in sport: youth and sport; gender and sexuality; race and ethnicity; sport, media, and big business; and international perspectives on sport and participation.

Leading experts in the field present new and exciting avenues for exploring sport in our world, allowing us to recognize its tremendous influence, both positive and negative, in our lives and in our world.

This new edition also includes cutting-edge research examining contemporary issues and controversies surrounding sport today.

These issues, analyzed from multiple perspectives, will inspire readers to change the game in positive ways.
