For those doing and teaching qualitative research in relation to sport and physical culture, The Sage Handbook of Qualitative Research in Sport and Physical Culture is a ‘must read’ collection. The handbook is notable not only for the range of topics covered by outstanding researchers and thinkers, but also for the astute ways that the fundamentals of qualitative research – and tensions around what these are and how they have been, and might be, engaged with – are mixed with cutting edge reflections on pressing social and environmental issues in the realm of sport and physical culture.

The nature of qualitative research is often described as the critical inquiry into understanding human experiences, behaviors, and social phenomena. Sometimes focused on "why" and "how" behind actions and decisions, rather than just the "what, where, and when"—but then pushing. Pushing that sensed knowing into both the realm of possibilities, that which can be further done as recompense and recovery; and then toward the realm of potentialities of being and doing differently, progressively and communally, better, for self and others, for the future.

Leaders in the field of qualitative methods, Michael Giardina, Michele Donnelly and Devra Waldman craft a vision for the future of qualitative sport and physical cultural research in this ground-breaking volume. Centrally concerned with the politics, philosophies, practices and sites that underpin qualitative inquiry in the discipline at this current moment, it is primed to become the go-to methods text for sport researchers.
