Foundations of Sport and Exercise Psychology With Web Study Guide-5th Edition

My first batch of teacher trainees majoring in Physical Education were initially using the 4th edition as their text book early this year. As English language is their second language, I have to prepare my lecture materials in our national language (Bahasa Malaysia)based on that text book, while at the same time cracking my head to think of some hands-on activities for them to do. As I was browsing the site for sports psychology books, this 5th edition with online study guide actually caught my attention. So, with my colleagues' recommendation, they helped me to purchase the book through amazon.com (as I'm not very IT savvy, and also I have my doubts on purchasing online products).The book arrived in good condition (securely packed), three week ahead of the estimated arrival date. Since then, there's no turning back, and I'm looking forward for the next semester to begin early next year, to fully utilize this book and its online activities for my next batch of students.

as an Assistant professor I read this book and decided to teach it to my students. and for 4 continues semesters and now the 5th I find this book the best I have come to know as a suitable undergraduate text book. very organized , very systematic, and very clear in delivering concepts and principles. in fact I have purchased the 6th edition and will start delivering it to my students soon.put in mind that I am an Arab and teaching this book to non native English speaking students (University of Bahrain, Middle East), so for native English speaking students the joy should be more.I highly recommend this book.

I bought the Kindle version and it was a lot cheaper this way. I like how I can change the background color to either black, white, or tan. The material was interesting but there were time when they dove into topic that are a no-brainer. I especially like the chapters about motivations and exercise adherence.

i studied with dr. gould when he was writing this book!i remember picking up the unfinished product in an unbound form and in a box!i enjoyed his class so much that i wanted to buy the finished copy.it is very helpful and insightful

I just started readying the first chapter, and so far so good! I have a wonderful teacher that explains the concepts in ways that make the information worth reading! Thanks for making such a wonderful deal. Means a lot to better my education.

I haven't read much of the book as yet however, I have skimmed through it as a preview. It appears to have all the information that I need to satisfy my requirements for certification in the near future.

I needed this book for school and I found it online it was more reasonable exactly what they have in the bookstore. I liked it so much I kept it so I could use it now

The best thing about these Kindle type books is the search feature. If you type the word you are looking for and then, all of the times that word or phrase is in the book appears at a seconds reach. Bad thing is that you cannot copy, paste nothing or print any information which sucks.
