Politics, Policy and Practice in Physical Education by John Evans

A unique resource for students and lecturers of Physical Education and Sports Studies, this book explores and analyses the processes of policy-making and implementation in education.

'This is an excellent text for students in the PE and Sport fieldIt fills a gap in the current available literature within PE and particularly relating to politics and policy. The writers enable students to link theoretical aspects with practical implementation.' - Jeanne Keay, Leeds Metropolitan University, UK

'The profession is priviledged to have two such eminent authors devoting time and energy to 'making public' their research into this much under-represented, often marginalized and low ststus curriculum subject. ... This is a stimulating and invaluable addition to the debate on policy process, definitions, traditions and futures in PE, on differentially positioned people who help to shape and re-shape policy and practice, and how traditions have been sustained rather than challenged by the relational power-plays involved.' - Tansin Benn, Sport Education and Society
