This is the first transcultural mental health project focusing on
sport. The book highlights the psychological problems and mental
crisis of athletes beyond the competition from "Western" and
Eastern cultural perspectives as reflected by DSM IV TR and
Traditional Chinese Medical Psychology (TCMP). The first chapter
offers an overview of the transcultural approach in sport. The
second chapter presents a basic introduction of the diagnostical
systems of DSM IV TR and TCMP. The third chapter is focusing on
case studies of athletes from different cultural backgrounds,
especially on Asian athletes, and mainly on the previous research
on DSM depression and TCM You Y depression. It is useful to
professionals in sport sciences, psychology, medicine, sociology,
and cultural anthropology. Coaches, athletes in all sport
disciplines and sport managers will equally benefit as everyone
practicing or interested in sports.
