A timely contribution that shows the value of physical activity for healthy ageing

Book reviews June 9, 2017

In this original book review for idrottsforum.org, Mark Brooke takes on Humberstone & Konstantaki’s edited volume Ageing, Physical Activity, Recreation and Wellbeing (Cambridge Scholars Publishing). Our reviewer finds much to recommend the book, not least since we’re all living longer and getting older, and health becomes an even more important issue.

There were loud cheers and glasses raised at the editorial offices of idrottsforum.org during the day. We are in fact rather proud of what we have achieved during the past two decades. Just take a look at the first front page that was published. Quite an accomplishment in the day, but so different from today when idrottsforum.org is an English-language international player, with almost 70 percent of the readership from outside of Scandinavia, and with an increasing number of contributions written by international scholars.

However proud we may be, though, complacency is not in sight. We will keep on working to make idrottsforum.org better and even more relevant for anyone anywhere with a scholarly interest in the ever-widening field of sports.
