It is valid for the wide range of disciplines and main topics of sport and exercise science. Therefore hermeneutics (words) and statistics (numbers) are equally represented.
An extensive introduction deals with aspects of foundation, concept, intention, and structure of the book.
The book contains in six parts 12 chapters, which are organized in a logical sequence for research methodology.
