Socrates, Sport, and Students: A Philosophical Inquiry into Physical Education and Sport

By Sheryle Bergmann Drewe and Sheryle Bergmann Drewe Dixon

Socrates, Sports, and Students involves a philosophical justification for the inclusion of physical education in the school system. This justification relies on arguing for the possibility of developing practical knowledge through physical education programs. Critical thinking competition, moral education, the relationship between coaches and athletes, and the relationship between physical education and sports are also discussed. This book will appeal to physical educators and administrators interested in justifying their activity, as well as philosophers and professors in the areas of education and sport.
