Abstract
|
:
|
This book examines and compares the sporting experiences of women by focusing on an extensive series of national case studies from Europe, the Middle East, Africa, North and South America, and Asia. The book presents a wealth of new research data, as well as comparative assessments on the extent to which women are represented in global sport and the opportunities that women have to participate in decision-making processes in sport.
