Free time and leisure participation

"This book is an expanded and updated edition of a previous work entitled World Leisure Participation: Free Time in the Global Village, by the same editors (CABI, 1996). It brings together the results of national leisure participation surveys from around the world. In addition to updating chapters to include the latest surveys, the book includes increased coverage of time-budget surveys and new themes such as public policy dimensions. It will be of significant interest to those working in the areas of leisure studies, sociology, time-use studies and social policy."--BOOK JACKET.
