Reviews

Reviews of the first publication: 'Of undoubted ine ‘This book should find ready acceptance as a text or reference work in any university department where courses in recreation are taught. It should also find a respected place on the bookshelves of researchers or planners in the service of governments or consultants. It must be rated as one of the best volumes of its type available to the academic and professional community.’ — Gordon D. Taylor, Journal of Leisure Research ‘Of undoubted interest to planners, sociologists and those concerned with outdoor leisure activities.’ — County Councils Gazette
