The 'outdoors' is a physical and ideological space in which people
engage with their environment, but it is also an important vehicle
for learning and for leisure. The Routledge Handbook of Outdoor
Studies is the first book to attempt to define and survey the
multi-disciplinary set of approaches that constitute the broad
field of outdoor studies, including outdoor recreation, outdoor
education, adventure education, environmental studies, physical
culture studies and leisure studies. It reflects upon the often
haphazard development of outdoor studies as a discipline,
critically assesses current knowledge in outdoor studies, and
identifies further opportunities for future research in this area.
With a broader sweep than any other book yet published on the
topic, this handbook traces the philosophical and conceptual
contours of the discipline, as well as exploring key contemporary
topics and debates, and identifying important issues in education
and professional practice. It examines the cultural, social and
political contexts in which people experience the outdoors,
including perspectives on outdoor studies from a wide range of
countries, providing the perfect foundation for any student,
researcher, educator or outdoors practitioner looking to deepen
their professional knowledge of the outdoors and our engagement
with the world around us.
