Sport and Physical Culture in Canadian Society by Jay Scherer, Brian Wilson
Requirements: .PDF reader, 57 MB
Overview: Sport and Physical Culture in Canadian Society is based on the idea that historical, comparative, and critical reflection is needed if we are to better understand, and indeed work towards improving, relationships between and in sport, physical culture, and society. Students learn, for example, that the opportunities to participate in various sports in Canada are by no means equitable, and that significant and enduring issues and problems remain in contemporary sport and physical culture. More importantly, they learn that the personal troubles that individuals experience along these lines are intimately connected to public issues of social structure and historical relations.
Each chapter in this contributed text is written by experts in their field, using both Canadian and international perspectives to address contemporary sociological issues. The authors hope that this text will provide students with a sound basis for understanding the social dimensions of sport and physical activity from a uniquely Canadian perspective.
