Theory in Context and Out Hardback
by Stuart Reifel
Hardback
Description
Theory in and out of Context furthers discourse and understanding about the complex phenomenon we know as play.
Play, as a human and animal activity, can be understood in terms of cultural, social, evolutionary, psychological, and philosophical perspectives.This effort necessarily includes inquiry from a range of disciplines, including history, sociology, psychology, education, biology, anthropology, and leisure studies.
Work from a number of those disciplines is represented in this book. This volume includes sections covering Foundations and Theory of Play, Gender and Children's Play, Theory of Mind, Adult-Child Play, and Classroom Play.
Scholarly analyses and reports of research from diverse disciplines amplify our understanding of play in Western and non-Western societies.
