- Summary
- Toward Active Living is the first book to bridge the gap between high-level research in the physical activity sciences and its application to programs and practice. The book combines the perspectives of expert scientists, educators, practitioners, and policy makers into one of the most extensive and thorough references available for the promotion of physical activity, fitness, and health. Written in nontechnical language, Toward Active Living includes 41 of the papers presented during the Active Living portion of the 1992 International Conference on Physical Activity, Fitness, and Health held in Toronto. The book enables practitioners to apply research-based knowledge in the physical activity sciences in their day-to-day work. Toward Active Living is an essential reference that fitness instructors, health/fitness administrators, physical educators, students, and policy makers will turn to again and again.
