Through a social justice and equity lens, this book examines how families, sport and leisure connect to broader social issues in society. It goes beyond describing oppression and disadvantaged identities, and focuses on advocacy and ways forward to challenge the status quo.

Recenzje

"This edited collection is a welcome addition to the growing literature on sport and social justice. Perhaps most important, it re-centers the conversation on families, which opens novel avenues for research about gender, aging, class, social inclusion, and generational relations … This quality resource presents excellent essays that form a cohesive whole. Scholars of the sociology of sport and practitioners will find value in this collection. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates. Graduate students, faculty, and professionals." - C R King, Columbia College Chicago, CHOICE
