Think. Grow. Live.
Learn to live life from the inside out and achieve success. "I have not written this book with millions of dollars in my bank account or with a garage filled with super cars, but I have written it with the understanding of what it takes for me to be happy. "I have goals and aspirations, and it's what I do on a day-to-day basis that helps me achieve them. I'm on a journey, life's journey, and that's exciting to me. It's exciting because I don't know what comes next. The fun part about working towards a goal is the journey, and that's what I embrace and enjoy." -Daniel Brennan

Surfing and the Philosophy of Sport
Surfing and the Philosophy of Sport uses the insights gained through an analysis of the sport of surfing to explore key questions and discourses within the philosophy of sport. As surfing has been practiced dynamically, since its beginnings as a traditional Polynesian pursuit to its current status as a counter-culture lifestyle and also a highly professionalized and commercialized sport that will be included in the Olympic Games, it presents a unique phenomenon from which to reconsider questions about the nature of sport and its role in a flourishing life and society. Daniel Brennan examines foundational issues about defining sport, sport's role in conceptualizing the good life, the aesthetic nature of sport, the place of technology in sport, the principles of Olympism and surfing’s embodiment of them, and issues of institutionalized sexism in sport and the effect that might have on athletic performance.
