Recenzii

"The thematic areas of this compilation span attitudes and emotions, stress and wellbeing, behaviors, and environmental aspects. Each of these areas features chapters authored by world authorities . . . I highly endorse this book for graduate students and established faculty alike!" Robert J. Schinke, Canada Research Chair in Multicultural Sport and Physical Activity, Laurentian University, Canada
 "With over 30 internationally renowned experts, this edited text fills an important void on how sport psychologists can help organizations and teams. Filled with the latest research and practical applications, it follows the classic scientist-practitioner model. A must read for anyone seriously interested in how psychology can affect and enhance sport teams." Robert Weinberg, Miami University-Ohio, USA
