内容説明

Kelly's Leisure, 3/e, offers a unique approach to the study of Leisure and Recreation by including historical and philosophical backgrounds relevant to the subject matter. An ``issues-orientation'' with psychological, sociological, economic, geographical, and anthropological material stimulates thought and discussion. Current research and statistics on various forms of leisure are combined with qualitative and case-study material to explore the meanings and orientations of leisure. Other unique content includes chapters on specific kinds of leisure such as sport, education, travel, commercial provisions, popular culture, mass media, the arts, outdoor recreation, tourism, and public recreation. Issues surrounding the relationship of leisure to work, the life course, freedom, and leisure in the future are given special attention. And keeping up with the emerging issues in the field, new chapters have been added on Leisure in a Diverse Society and Politics and Leisure. No other text has the breadth of coverage and presentation of issues that Kelly's Leisure, 3/e, contains.
