Rezensionen

"This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in learning more about the interaction between the history of sport and international development. There are many parallels between the contemporary sport-for-development movement and sport-for-good during the imperial period that make this book particularly fascinating. ... Despite its broader scope, this book has set the tone for academics and universities to conduct sport-for-development research informed by country-specific sociocultural needs and historical contexts."
