Description

This book provides an interdisciplinary collection of theoretical and methodological contributions critically exploring the connections between leisure and wellbeing.

It expands the field of leisure studies to highlight the contribution of international scholars to a developing agenda in leisure and wellbeing research.

Authors from many different countries engage with the complexity of subjective wellbeing through the lenses of diverse leisure cultures.

Collectively, the chapters represent rigorous high-quality social science research, informed by innovative methods that can build knowledge about the intricate ways leisure cultures and subjective wellbeing are related to each other.

The book serves to deepen the knowledge and understanding of the complexity of wellbeing experiences, and the diversity of contexts in which wellbeing is enhanced or reduced through taking part in leisure pursuits. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal Leisure Studies.
