The Association for the Study of Play (ASP) is the sponsor of the
seventh volume in the Play and Culture Studies Series. The ASP is a
professional group of researchers who study play. The purpose of
this series is to advance knowledge about play and culture. Volume
seven presents current theoretical and empirical research on play
and culture from a variety of disciplines including psychology,
education, and sociology. The book begins with an overview of the
twentieth-century and moves from conceptualizing play to
significant and timely topics, such as the relationship between
play and literacy. Applications to practice and policy implications
are presented and include play with action figures; playgrounds;
play as an integral part of the human experience; and the value of
play with books for toddlers. Research activity and interests of
contemporary play scholars are highlighted and discussed in
relation to projected problems and needs facing us as we enter the
new millennium, such as childhood obesity; play as a venue for
social interaction; and play as a method of developing skill for
interaction at the local and national levels as adults.
