Why did Michael Jordan quit basketball and take up baseball? Why
was Martina Navratilova so successful as a professional tennis
player? These and many other questions about aspects of motivation
and emotion in sport are addressed in this book which is newly
available in paperback. Reversal theory's systematic conceptual
framework allows a unique perspective for interpreting behaviour in
sport contexts. Within each chapter, real-life examples are
combined with research findings to provide an understanding of the
emotional background and changes which accompany the individual's
unique experience in sport. In addition, suggestions as to
alications of reversal theory in new areas of sport psychology and
the future direction of reversal theory-based sport research are
outlined. For those interested in a truly insightful understanding
of human behaviour in sport, this book will be required reading.
