From Disability Sport and Recreation to Recreation for All

The 1989 book remains as an excellent book on a diversity of sports from scuba diving to martial arts, canoeing, ice skating and boccia with an introduction to dance, recreational games (small selection) and fitness which are internationally competitive. The major drawback is the context of disability versus a framework of recreation and sports for all, in an inclusion or integration context. The book remains a standard reference in sports, recreation and the arts, including in my forthcoming research studies, including a new motorsports research series (e.g., Car shows, car cruise-ins and bike nights in Central and northern New York; Peterpaul Recreation Park), and city level arts and culture i.e., Utica Monday Nite). Congratulations to Lex Frieden as co-editor for bringing a quality publication to press with international support at the political levels. Julie Ann Racino, Community and Policy Studies
