A very helpful textbook if you’re majoring in Physical Education. Unfortunately, I’m not, but I could still see how it would be useful. It had some well-done chapters explaining different aspects of physical education at different ages and how many job opportunities there are, but it was also incredibly redundant. A lot of the chapters repeated the same things mentioned in previous chapters, and there were a lot of things said throughout the book that seemed obvious and unnecessary.

This was a good textbook with a lot of valuable information. The set up was easy to understand and had many links to webpages and journals for more information that wasn't covered in this book, or simply to find organizations that may interest the readers.

Poorly written and organized.

I only read this book because of a college class but it taught me a lot about physical education among other things so I liked it.
