It is time to apply a critical perspective on societal structures that form prerequisites for health and well-being

By exploring past, current, and future intersections between leisure and health, Exploring the Leisure–Health Nexus: Pushing Global Boundaries (CABI) considers research and academic thought to reveal and critique the nuanced ways that leisure impacts health as well as considering how health professions use leisure as a ‘tool’. We asked health educator and currently PhD researcher My Blomberg for a review. She finds the collected volume to make an original contribution to the leisure–health field, and especially appreciates its multidisciplinary approach to understanding the leisure–health nexus with a diverse population focus.
