Written in a clear and engrossing style, this new approach to Psychology in sport will be of immediate relevance to courses on introductory, applied and sport psychology, as well as providing a valuable reference source for general psychological material pertaining to sport and exercise.

CHOICE Review

This edited volume focusing on sport is one of a series of beginning undergraduate-level books delving into the psychological dimensions of human behavior and development. The book is divided into nine traditional knowledge frameworks (e.g., historical, clinical, social, cognitive, developmental, occupational, etc.) often associated with psychology and presents the fundamental research, theory, data, and methodology salient to each subset. Editors Kremer and Scully weave a pattern that enables the professional psychological community to acquire a deeper understanding and appreciation of the role and contributions that sport research can play within the greater psychological whole. Individual chapter authors provide concise and well-referenced content area synopses that will be valuable sources for professionals studying general psychological attributes of sport and exercise science.
