History and Philosophy of Physical Education and Sport traces the
essentials of the history and the philosophical underpinnings of
kinesiology to provide students with foundational knowledge within
the discipline. The text covers prehistoric physical activity
through 21st century sports and physical education, as well as
ethics, epistemology, and aesthetics. It prepares students for
further study within the discipline and encourages them to consider
their place in the history of sport and physical education. The
text begins with an explanation of the rationale for studying the
history and philosophy of physical education and sport. Later
chapters progress chronologically, charting the evolution of sport
and physical education from prehistoric times through modern day.
Students learn about sport in ancient Greece and Rome, non-Western
physical education and sport, sport in Colonial America,
international sport, and dance as a critical component of sport.
Dedicated chapters cover philosophical approaches to sport, invite
students to reflect on their own philosophy, and present key issues
for further research and discussion. An inclusive and approachable
introduction, History and Philosophy of Physical Education and
Sport is a valuable resource for courses in kinesiology, sports
studies, and physical education.
