Publisher Description
Introduction Leisure provides the means for individuals, communities and even nations to transform their quality of life and well being. As Edginton and Chen (2008, p. vii) wrote, "... leisure holds infinite possibilities for change ... [and] ... is an optimal medium for transformation." As these authors have suggested, "... experiencing leisure is transformation in and of itself. Individuals change as they experience leisure" (ibid). Leisure can and does contribute in many ways to assisting individuals in enhancing the condition of their daily living. It is through leisure that one finds balance in their lives, as well as a temporal space and time for reflection, renewal and a rekindling of the human spirit.
