`This is simply the physical education book of its time. The editors must be congratulated on bringing together so many quality authors from so many different parts of the world. As a handbook, it represents how far the study of physical education has moved forward in recent times. What we have is a clear portrayal of physical education at the start of the 21st century′ –
Mike Jess, University of Edinburgh
`This Handbook is a ‘must read’ for all physical educators who are serious about understanding their subject and developing their practices. The list of authors involved reads like a ‘who′s who’′ of physical education at a global level – the editors are to be commended on bringing together such collective expertise – this is a key strength of the book. The Handbook successfully expresses a view of knowledge about physical education pedagogy which embraces different research traditions and emerging areas of interest across the global scholarly community′ – Jo Harris, Loughborough University
`This comprehensive and eclectic exploration into the field of physical education draws on the vast expertise of its renowned international contributors with astounding results. The Handbook of Physical Education serves to firmly reinstate physical education to its position as the core discipline of sport and exercise science. The Handbook is destined to become an indispensable academic resource for scholars, students and enthusiasts of physical education for years to come′ – Pilvikki Heikinaro-Johansson, University of Jyväskylä
What is the current condition of the field of physical education? How has it adapted to the rise of kinesiology, sport and exercise science and human movement studies over the last thirty years?
This Handbook provides an authoritative critical overview of the field and identifies future challenges and directions.
The Handbook is divided in to six parts:
– Perspectives and Paradigms in Physical Education Pedagogy Research;
– Cross-disciplinary Contributions to Research on Physical Education;
– Learners and Learning in Physical Education;
