520 | _aWritten for the introductory or foundational course, the eighth edition provides a modern, comprehensive, and balanced entry to the fields of physical education, exercise science, and sport science. This revision outlines the origin and development of these disciplines and looks forward to their application of the latest data and technologies. It identifies current conflicts and includes discussion on the changing focuses of the field and the broader realms it encompasses. The text is organized in an easy to follow format, first defining the profession of exercise science and sport science, then providing an overview of the disciplines that study the cultural, social, and scientific foundations of this profession. In later chapters, the text builds upon that foundation and examines career development and job opportunities, looking at the traditional areas of teaching and coaching, the expanding career options of sport management, and the new world of the technological workplace. | ||
