An Anthology

Sports buffs know all about famous players and coaches and can recite statistics in endless detail. But do fans know how sport is linked to other institutions of society? Do they understand the role of sport in socializing youngsters in both positive and negative ways? What about the ways in which sport perpetuates race and gender-role stereotypes in society? How do owners, coaches, and other sport authorities exercise power to maintain control over athletes?

These issues and more are examined in Sport in Contemporary Society, Tenth Edition, a selection of accessible writing by journalists and leading scholars who represent a new era of critical appraisal of sports--both professional and amateur.

Concepts and Methods

"Family Therapy: Concepts & Methods "is "the "definitive, classic in the field and covers all the major schools and developments in Family Therapy. Just some of the features that make this book so widely used -
 * Brief biographies and photos of some of the leading family therapists of the twentieth century
 * Extensive coverage of professional ethics, reflecting the need for students to have increased awareness of professional issues in family therapy
 * Unique issues family therapists encounter when providing home-based servicesLatest research and data - often before that research is published in other forums

The Ninth Editon continues this tradition with many exciting revisions including:
 * several new case studies
 * a new summary of major theoretical concepts
 * a new section on working with common forms of family trianges
 * new sections on Sex and the Internet and Neuroscience and Relationships
 * and much more

From the Preface - "One thing that tends to get lost in academic discussions of family therapy is the feeling of accomplishment that comes from sitting down with an unhappy family and being able to help them. Beginning therapists are understandably anxious and not sure theyll know how to proceed. ("How do you get "all of them"to come in?") Veterans often speak in abstractions. They have opinions and discuss big issues--postmodernism, narrative reconstructionism, second-order cybernetics. While its tempting to use this space to say Important Things, I prefer to be a little more personal. Treating troubled families has given me the greatest satisfaction imaginable, and I hope that the same is or will be true for you." - Michael P. Nichols
