This is truly an introductory text and assumes the students have less of a background in sport psychology than many competing texts. In addition, the tone of this text is more informal than most competing texts. A strength of the text is that it describes, explains and applies each concept using “real world” examples. Anshel offers a very applied approach, supported by research.  NOTE: Anshel points out that none of the competing texts include communications or counseling chapter (his does), an important selling feature. Also, these books lack, “not surprisingly,” a sense of humor. Ansel’s is very well written, human, accessible book.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50052758634769,"sku":"CIN0137765843A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0137765843.jpg?v=1750779702"},{"product_id":"applied-exercise-psychology-book-mark-h-anshel-9780826132147","title":"Applied Exercise Psychology","description":"This is the first applied handbook for practitioners who want to help patients begin and maintain an exercise program as a lifestyle change.

Instead, they turned those so-called failures into opportunities to learn, improve, and eventually earn the achievements they are celebrated for today. Why, then, is failure considered negative in our society? Perhaps failure is not, in fact, something to be avoided, but something to be encouraged.   In Praise of Failure: The Value of Overcoming Mistakes in Sports and in Life aims to change the way our society defines and perceives what is commonly called “failure.” Mark H. Anshel provides a refreshing, new perspective on how we can embrace failure as part of the process of achieving and succeeding at the highest level. Anshel uses sports psychology in a grounded, easy-to-read manner to examine failure in sports settings, revealing that not only is failure inevitable in an imperfect world, it is essential. He addresses such issues as how to properly promote failure in sport and exercise settings, how errors lead to improvement, ways to constructively cope with failure, and how to help child athletes fail “safely.” In the process, Anshel shows that the highest-performing athletes have one characteristic in common—they learned and improved from apparent setbacks.  In Praise of Failure shares stories of professional athletes, business professionals, scholars, and famous inventors who failed repeatedly before attaining their dreams, revealing the integral role failure plays in success. Offering a fresh and exciting take on how to approach the failures we face in life, this book will be invaluable for athletes, coaches, exercise and fitness trainers, dieticians, students, and even for the corporate world.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50376379400465,"sku":"CIN1442251573G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51327993446673,"sku":"CIN1442251573VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52455146488081,"sku":"NLS9781442251571","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1442251573.jpg?v=1755498338"},{"product_id":"sport-psychology-book-mark-h-anshel-9780321732491","title":"Sport Psychology","description":"Sport Psychology, Fifth Edition provides a comprehensive overview of sport and exercise psychology.

The purpose of this book is to \"help the helper,\" that is, to assist the person whose professional mission it is to provide a service that enables clients or patients to acknowledge their unhealthy habits and to replace them with more desirable, healthier routines. It focuses on the power of helping clients identify: (1) the inconsistency between their core values – what they consider most important in life – with one or more unhealthy habits, (2) the costs and long-term consequences of this inconsistency, called a \"disconnect\" in the model, and (3) their willingness to conclude that the consequences of this inconsistency is unacceptable. At that stage, (4) clients should be prepared to work with a coach in developing and carrying out an action plan that aims to remove the disconnect between the client’s values and at least one of their unhealthy habits.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51135267340561,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51135269830929,"sku":"NIN9781138908116","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52435243041041,"sku":"NLS9781138908116","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1138908118.jpg?v=1751367656"},{"product_id":"intervention-strategies-for-changing-health-behavior-book-mark-h-anshel-9781138908123","title":"Intervention Strategies for Changing Health Behavior","description":"This book focuses on providing a novel approach, supported by empirical research, to improve the effectiveness of changing client attitudes, emotions, motivation, and behavior for developing and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52620489392401,"sku":"NLS9781138908123","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53363721273617,"sku":"NIN9781138908123","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781138908123.jpg?v=1761539767"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-mark-h-anshel.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
