Well done!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Backboards and Blackboards (Paperback)
The Adlers use a qualitative research study w/Peter becoming a participant observer to study the socialization of college athletes and the social psychology of the self. I believe this piece of research is valid research. It saddened me to read what our materialistic world is doing to the young individuals that are recruited for college basketball. It also proved to me that college basketball is about big business, and not really a sport. Unfortunately, it continues today and not only in basketball. Thank you Patricia and Peter for opening our eyes. Anyone interested in knowing the real truth about college athletics should consider reading this book.
