Summary:

"Feminist Applied Sport Psychology: From Theory to Practice introduces the reader to feminist, black feminist and womanist sport psychology, offering an alternative and powerful approach to working with athletes. Covering core concepts, applied skills and research methods, the book includes useful features throughout, such as discussion questions and definitions of key terms. It is organized into three sections covering, firstly, feminist theory, history, movements, and their importance in applied sport psychology; secondly, the intersection of race, class and gender, and the integration of intersectional considerations into sport psychology; and finally, in-depth case studies of feminist sport psychology in action, each of which offers strategies for best practice"-- Provided by publisher.
