Ethics Knowledge and Truth in Sports Research

<p>In this groundbreaking study Graham McFee argues that sound high-level research into sport requires a sound rationale for one's methodological choices and that such a rationale requires an understanding of the connection between the practicalities of researching sport and the philosophical assumptions which underpin them. Drawing on a wide range of examples from the laboratory to the sports field McFee explores the concepts of 'knowledge' and 'truth' in sports research and makes a powerful case for a philosophical deepening of our approach to method and methodology in sport. This book is important reading for all advanced students and researchers working in sport exercise and related disciplines.</p>
