| Synopsis: |
How do people become involved in sports? What can their experiences teach us?These are two of the many questions asked by this unique collection of personal stories of people involved in sport. Told by researchers who have interviewd participants and observed what happens in the setting where people play sports, the contributions not only show how sport studies contribute to the wider study of society, but also describe the difficulties and challenges faced when doing research of this kind.Inside Sports is divided into four main sections reflecting the social processes and developments over time that make up the experience of sport for most people, however diverse their circumstances may otherwise be:* Early experiences: being introduced to sports* Experience and identity: becoming an athlete* Deep in the experience: doing sports* Transition experiences: facing life beyond the playing field.In its extensive coverage of the sporting experience from within, as well as its discussion of research methods, Inside Sports will be essential reading for all students studying sport in society. |
