Recenzje

"Pre-performance routines are one of the most noticeable features of sport. To the observer, they seem slightly obsessive, sometimes quirky, and largely incidental to success. To researchers and practitioners, they offer a window into the psychology of performance. This book brings together an excellent group of researchers from around the world to share their insights and offer practical advice for enhancing performance"
