Seeking the Senses in Physical Culture: Sensuous scholarship in action

No customer reviews yet ISBN 9781138100589

This is the first book to explore a broad conception of the 'senses' and related issues on embodiment within physical cultures, providing vivid examples of sensory scholarship in action from sport, physical activity, leisure and recreation. This book brings together leading figures to explore important questions on how we go about seeking the senses, how we engage in somatic work, and how, via cross-modal experiences, we create meanings and come to understand ourselves and others in a variety of social settings. This ground breaking collection showcases the latest sensory research in physical culture as well as paving the way for future work in this area.
