Women and Sport: Continuing a Journey of Liberation and Celebration focuses on women winning access to the playing field as well as the front office in sport. Readers will gain an understanding of how women have been involved in sport and physical activity, how they have struggled for widespread recognition and legitimacy in the eyes of many, and how they continue to carve out their role in shaping sport as we know it today and as it will be in the future. Edited by renowned expert Ellen J. Staurowsky, widely accepted as an authority on college athlete rights and Title IX and gender equity, Women and Sport facilitates interdisciplinary, research-based discussion by providing a detailed account of contributions from women in sport. The text features a foreword by sport executive Donna Orender and 15 chapters--written by leading authorities in women and gender studies in sport--that are grouped into four parts: Women’s Sport in Context: Connecting Past and Present reminds readers of the historical events and influences that shape today’s landscape; Strong Girls, Strong Women recognizes gender differences and what it means to create equitable access to sport opportunities; Women, Sport, and Social Location explores how various characteristics and qualities may affect sport participation and opportunities; Women in the Sport Industry offers a rare and contemporary approach to examining women in sport leadership, management, and media. Women and Sport was developed with the intent of filling a need by serving as a primary textbook and separates itself from other titles by providing an abundance of instructor ancillary materials that assist in class preparations.-.
