Dr. Frappier chose this book because:
“This book discusses sports as part of society and culture from a sociological perspective. I have used and enjoyed several editions of this book in my Sport and Play in the U.S. course for many years. In addition, I have been a reviewer for this textbook. The book has impacted my teaching and learning by stimulating an interest to explore a wide array of topics related to sports, sociology, culture, and society.”
