Description:
This book presents an overview of three dimensions of passion and offers a new frame to contextualize exercise addition. The work addresses the misinterpretation of certain aspects of training (e.g., intensity, frequency, commitment) often related to addiction.
Review Quotes:
"Szabo and Demetrovics have written a very clever book that clears up some conceptual ambiguities and methodological weaknesses in exercise addiction research. Passion and Addiction in Sports and Exercise is compulsory reading for anyone interested in the subject, whether as a researcher, coach or athlete."
Dr. Robert Gugutzer, Professor for social sciences of sports, Goethe University Frankfurt am Main, Germany
