Leisure, Health, and Wellness: Making the Connections

As understanding of good health changes, it is apparent that leisure and its use are an important issue in both achieving and maintaining good health. This book reflects the story of how parks, recreation, and leisure studies contribute to health and well-being of individuals, families, communities, and societies. This is also the story of how public health contributes to parks, recreation, and leisure studies - the intersections and connections between and among these fields, concepts, and professional practices.
