Recreation management is a very active field of research. The first edition of this well-known text was published only seven years ago, but the literature has grown greatly in even this brief period. This second edition cites almost a thousand references, and close to a quarter of those have appeared since the first edition. Classic works back to the 1960s and even the 1950s are still referenced as appropriate, and there is a solid combination of the social, economic and scientific literature.Recreation management is a very active field of research.
