Inhaltsangabe

This collection of essays on community leisure and recreation is divided into two sections. Part 1 examines the nature and development of a community approach to the provision of leisure and recreation services and is mainly theoretical in its approach. Part 2 examines critically the application of community approaches to leisure and recreation provision in specific contexts, drawing upon the theoretical discussions of Part 1 as a means of analysis.

Críticas

'This publication is well organised into two clearly defined sections that
look at the theoretical aspects of community recreation and leisure, and
some practical applications of the approach. The text is refreshingly clear
and does not suffer from the apparent need of some publications dealing
with such theoretical subjects to shroud themselves in unintelligibility.'
The Leisure Manager, July 1996
