(SIC call no.: GV 706.4 .I58 2007)

Edited by Martin S. Hagger and Nikos L.D. Chatzisarantis, and published by Human Kinetic in 2007, this book is the first text to gather, into one volume, research works that examine the contribution of self-determination theory to the understanding of motivation and behaviour in the area of exercise and sport. It also sets directions for research. Both editors are experts in sport psychology and members of advisory board for international sport psychology journals. This book is a great text and reference for instructors and researchers.
