Summary
"What is leisure studies? Who are the key figures in the field? How can we evaluate the relevance of concepts in the field?" "This is the first full-length dictionary of leisure studies. It examines the key concepts, assesses the work of central figures and helps students zero-in on essential issues and conceptual distinctions." "The book: provides an unprecedented critical survey of the field; offers students authoritative, comprehensive accounts of the basic concepts and leading figures; and provides students with core resources to write essays and pass exams." "Written by scholars experienced with the needs of undergraduates and postgraduates in the field, the book will be quickly recognized as a vital asset in making sense of leisure studies."--Jacket.
