Sportphilosophie: Eine phänomenologisch fundierte Einführung
by Axel HornDie Einführung gibt einen Überblick über Inhalte und Methoden, holt den Leser mit seinen Vorverständnissen über Philosophie und Sport ab und eröffnet den Horizont für Themen, Fragen, Problemstellungen und Lösungsansätze einer Sportphilosophie.Der zweite Teil des Buches beschäftigt sich mit der Phänomenologie als einer der grundlegenden Strömungen der Philosophie des 20. Jahrhunderts. Er zeichnet Anliegen und Entwicklung der Phänomenologie anhand einiger ihrer Hauptvertreter nach und arbeitet mit „Phänomenologien der Leiblichkeit“ ein zeitgemäßes Verständnis von Körper respektive Leib heraus.Im dritten Teil geht es um eine „Phänomenologie des heutigen Sports“. Sport ist längst eine feste gesellschaftliche Größe und ein florierender wirtschaftlicher Bereich geworden. Das Buch analysiert die Verbindung des Sports zu Geld, Macht, Politik, Medien, Doping und die Rolle, die er hinsichtlich Körperkult, Spiel, Gesundheit, Bildung usw. spielt. Der Autor geht den Fragen nach, wie sich die Phänomene genauer darstellen, was sie „eigentlich“ zum Vorschein bringen, und ob der Sport tatsächlich einem Umgang mit dem Körper respektive dem Leib entspricht, wie er im philosophischen Verständnis der Leiblichkeit dargelegt wurde.
Sportpsychiatrie und -psychotherapie
by Andreas StröhleDie Sportpsychiatrie und -psychotherapie ist im deutschsprachigen Raum eine noch jüngere Spezialisierung, während Sportmedizin in Deutschland inzwischen eine fächerübergreifende ärztliche Zusatzweiterbildung darstellt. Sportpsychiatrische Kenntnisse und Expertise gewinnen jedoch sowohl im Breiten- als auch im Leistungssport zunehmend an Bedeutung, nicht zuletzt durch Erkrankungen prominenter Leistungssportler und die Diskussion ihrer Ursachen und Folgen. Auch in der Entstehung und Behandlung psychischer Erkrankungen in der Allgemeinbevölkerung kommt der Rolle von Bewegung und Sport eine immer größere Bedeutung zu. Dieses Buch bringt diese beiden Aspekte der Sportpsychiatrie und -psychotherapie zusammen. Namhafte Autoren aus der Sportmedizin, Physiologie, Psychologie, Sportpsychologie, Psychiatrie und Psychotherapie bieten zunächst einen Überblick über die Grundlagen von Sport, Bewegung und Training sowie Basiskenntnisse der Leistungs- und Sportpsychologie. Das Kernstück des Buches umfasst die Darstellung der Sport- und Bewegungstherapie bei psychischen Erkrankungen in der Allgemeinbevölkerung einerseits sowie der psychischen Erkrankungen und Besonderheiten bei (Leistungs-)Sportlern andererseits. Das Werk richtet sich an Therapeuten und Ärzte unterschiedlicher Disziplinen, insbesondere Psychiater und Sportmediziner, aber auch Psychologen und Psychotherapeuten sowie andere Berufsgruppen in Medizin, Psychiatrie und Psychotherapie, die sich für Sport und Sporttherapie interessieren. Daneben sollen aber auch Helfer und Professionelle aus dem Sport angesprochen werden, um einen Zugang zu psychischen Erkrankungen im Leistungssport zu bekommen.

Sports Analytics in Practice with R
by Ted KwartlerSports Analytics in Practice with R A practical guide for those looking to employ the latest and leading analytical software in sport In the last twenty years, sports organizations have become a data-driven business. Before this, most decisions in sports were qualitatively driven by subject-matter experts. In the years since numerous teams found success with “Money Ball” analytical perspectives, the industry has sought to advance its analytical acumen to improve on- and off-field outcomes. The increasing demand for data to inform decisions for coaches, scouts, and players before and during sporting events has led to intriguing efforts to build upon this quantitative approach. As this methodology for assessing performance has matured and grown in importance, so too has the open-source R software emerged as one of the leading analytical software packages. In fact, R is a top 10 programming language that is useful in academia and industry for statistics, machine learning, and rapid prototyping. Sports Analytics in Practice with R neatly marries these two advances to teach basic analytics for sports-related use—from cricket to baseball, from basketball to tennis, from soccer to sports gambling, and more. Sports Analytics in Practice with R readers will also find: A broad perspective of sports, focusing on a wide range of sports rather than just one The first book of its kind that features coding examples Case study approach throughout the book Companion website including data sets to work through alongside the explanations Sports Analytics in Practice with R is a helpful tool for students and professionals in the sports management field, but also for sports enthusiasts who have a coding background.

Sports Biomechanics: Reducing Injury Risk and Improving Sports Performance
by Melanie BusseyWhen working with sports men and women, the biomechanist is faced with two apparently incompatible goals: reducing injury risk and improving sports performance. Now in a fully updated and revised edition, Sports Biomechanics introduces the fundamental principles that underpin our understanding of the biomechanics of both sports injury and performance, and explains how contemporary biomechanical science can be used to meet both of those goals simultaneously. The first four chapters of this book look closely at sports injury, including topics such as the properties of biological materials, mechanisms of injury occurrence, risk reduction, and the estimation of forces in biological structures. The last four chapters concentrate on the biomechanical enhancement of sports performance including analytical techniques, statistical and mathematical modelling of sports movements, and the use of feedback to enhance sports performance. Drawing on the very latest empirical and epidemiological data, and including clear concise summaries, self test questions and guides to further reading in every chapter, this book is essential reading for all advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students with an interest in biomechanics, sports injury, sports medicine, physical therapy or performance analysis.

Sports Cardiology Casebook
by Antonio PellicciaComparatively little is known about the risk of sudden death associated with exercise in young competitive athletes, and whether the benefits of sports activity outweigh the hazards of exercise-related fatal events is a clinical dilemma.

This in itself is of massive importance to the cardiac patient population as exercise is a key component of effective recovery and recommended as central in the prevention of much cardiac disease.
