Review
"It stretches the boundaries of the present-day investigation in the field to include many critical topics not covered in the inaugural edition (CH, Jun'93). Documentation is exceptionally well done. This text will assist coaches, psychologists, and athletes concerned with enhancing human performance. Highly recommended for all university and graduate libraries committed to research or applications in sport psychology, Upper-division undergraduates and above." —H.F. Kenny Jr. (

"...a readable and informative introduction to this diverse and expanding field..." (Pediatric Rehabilitation, Vol.5, No.1, 2002)
Product Description
