McFee, Graham

30,69 €(IVA inc.)

In this groundbreaking study, Graham McFee argues that sound high-level research into sport requires a sound rationale for one¿s methodological choices, and that such a rationale requires an understanding of the connection between the practicalities of researching sport and the philosophical assumptions which underpin them. Drawing on a wide range of examples, from the laboratory to thesports field, McFee explores the concepts of 'knowledge¿ and 'truth¿ in sports research and makes a powerful case for a philosophical deepening of our approach to method and methodology in sport. This book is important reading for all advanced students and researchers working in sport, exercise and related disciplines.
