"Integrating the traditional presentation of the nature, scope, philosophy, and history of physical education and sport with the growing career opportunities available within this dynamic field, this text addresses the challenges and the future of the discipline. The activities of physical education are exemplified by a certain range of sporting practices which are taken as paradigmatic which can be characterised as mixed goods because they have the capacity to be valued not only for their internal goods but also for the particular manner in which they secure external goods. Anatomy and Physiology: Understanding the Human Body offers an innovative approach to anatomy and physiology through its informal, conversational style and its extensive use of simple analogies to explain both the structure and function of the human body. Organized into seven sections, the text begins with an explanation of basic chemistry and builds on this background, covering cells, tissues, the body as a whole, and the concept of homeostasis. Physical fitness refers to the ability to function as healthy human beings with energy and alertness in all daily activities. There are many places to learn about fitness, but the most common resources are easily found and can be used by anyone. Physical Education is a vital part of total education. It is that process of education that concerns physical activities, which develop and maintain human body. The attainment of its goals depends on its administrative control structure more than anyone thing. The present book discusses all the aspects of foundation of physical education. Hopefully the present book will be immensely useful for the students and teachers of physical education and sports."--Back cover
