Synopsis

This book takes an in-depth look at the effects of recreation on human behavior, drawing on a survey that involved interviews with hundreds of individuals. The study presents statistics and analysis of how the use of one's free time relates to everything from academic achievement in young people to adult criminality. It also covers how recreation habits change with age, the role of public and private entities in providing recreational opportunities, and the potential impact that control mechanisms could have on various types of recreation. The author dives into the subject of wholesome citizens, and how constructive uses of free time played a role in their development. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the social and psychological impact of recreation and provides insight into the importance of planned leisure activities.
