Aquatic Sports
Supergirls have been making their own waves in water sports. Women athletes have excelled at sports such as free diving, surfing, and white water kayaking. They've also sailed around the world. Readers of this thrilling text learn about the unusual world of water sports and also about skills athletes use to be successful. Intense photographs capture the excitement of water sports, and case studies of women athletes overcoming obstacles are inspirational, especially for young girls interested in high-energy, adventurous sports.
The Economics of Aquatic Sports
This volume examines the economics of aquatic sports. Covering topics ranging from youth participation, collegiate level amateurism, and professional performance issues, to the history of Olympic level swim and water polo programs, the chapters illuminate economic motivations behind the behavior and performance characteristics of this industry. Labor-related themes regarding compensation, exploitation and discrimination are examined. The volume is also especially timely, including discussions of the impacts of technological change, the hot hand effect, confirmation bias, and doping. By answering questions about these key issues in sport, this book hopes to shed light on behaviors outside of sport and provide an enhanced understanding of individual, group, and industry decision making and performance under conditions of scarcity and uncertainty. This book will be of interest to those studying sports economics, sports management, or applied microeconomic theory as well as professionals in the sports field: sports managers, agents, media experts, coaches, athletic directors and development leaders.
