In today's culture, sports wield a weight influence; this
influence, however, is rarely examined. Similar to the first
edition, this second edition of Learning Culture Through Sports
provides coaches, educators, parents, and others dealing with
students and athletes with an engaging and critical context for
probing the sociological basis of this influence. The book's
sections each address a particular issue in sport: youth and sport;
gender and sexuality; race and ethnicity; sport, media, and big
business; and international perspectives on sport and
participation. Leading experts in the field present new and
exciting avenues for exploring sport in our world, allowing us to
recognize its tremendous influence, both positive and negative, in
our lives and in our world. This new edition also includes
cutting-edge research examining contemporary issues and
controversies surrounding sport today. These issues, analyzed from
multiple perspectives, will inspire readers to change the game in
positive ways.
