'A highly recommended book that makes an important contribution to leisure studies' - Annals of Leisure Research
‘Aitchison’s book is a very welcome addition to the literature in leisure studies and will be seen as valuable within a wide range of disciplines (geography, sociology, education and management studies, in particular) … the book goes beyond academic scholarship and research to engage with practical aspects of leisure policy, education and management … a wide-ranging and highly informative book, which effectively links theory and practice across a broad spectrum of subject areas within leisure studies. It is set to become a key text for leisure courses, as well as finding a respected place on the reading lists of modules in women’s studies, geography, sociology and other disciplines.’ – Gender, Place and Culture
