"Theory in and out of Context" furthers discourse and
understanding about the complex phenomenon we know as play. Play,
as a human and animal activity, can be understood in terms of
cultural, social, evolutionary, psychological, and philosophical
perspectives.This effort necessarily includes inquiry from a range
of disciplines, including history, sociology, psychology,
education, biology, anthropology, and leisure studies. Work from a
number of those disciplines is represented in this book.
This volume includes sections covering Foundations and Theory of
Play, Gender and Children's Play, Theory of Mind, Adult-Child Play,
and Classroom Play. Scholarly analyses and reports of research from
diverse disciplines amplify our understanding of play in Western
and non-Western societies.
