Reviews

“Stebbins Synthesis of SLP is an original contribution to knowledge as no other author as attempted a synthesis of this theory across the abundance of works and multiple fields. … The text would be most suitable for both postgraduate and research students in the leisure space as well as academics and researchers with an interest in leisure studies and the SLP.” (Stewart Alford, Leisure Studies, May 20, 2021)
