註釋
The Story of Leisure, takes a detailed, and sometimes controversial, look at the meaning of leisure - what it is, how it developed, what it has become, and where it is going. Written by a professor who has been studying leisure and culture for more than forty years and a manager of a dynamic municipal recreational agency, this thought-provoking book will help you understand the importance of leisure as a basis for cultural development. Part I examines the history of leisure from the prehistoric age to the present. It recounts the development of leisure and explores the events that have shaped how people define and use leisure. Part II discusses concepts and philosophies - such as culture, recreation, and social programs - as they pertain to leisure. Timelines, case studies, and stories allow you to put the material into perspective while controversy questions help you to consider other points of view.
