This is the first book to survey the participation of women in
sport and physical education across Asia, from the Middle East and
South Asia through to the Asia-Pacific region. Covering sport and
physical activity at all levels, from school-based PE and community
sport to elite, high-performance sport, the book provides an
important overview of developments in policy, theory and research
across this complex and dynamic region. It has a strong focus on
gender equity but is informed by important intersecting influences
that affect the lives of girls and women and their participation in
sport. Including contributions from leading scholars from across
the region, the book draws on multi-disciplinary perspectives,
including sociology, cultural studies, anthropology, and history,
and makes an important contribution to global understanding of
diversity, challenges, and achievements in the sporting lives of
Asian Women. This book will be a fascinating read for any student,
researcher, or policy-maker working in sport studies, gender
studies, women's studies or Asian studies.
