The future of leisure services

Today, technology is accelerating change in all stations of our lives. Some life prolonging and others life threatening – such as the destruction of our environment. The complexity of the demographic changes occuring in our society makes one question what the composition of our society will be in the near future. These rapid changes dictate an urgent assessment for future leisure needs. The author has undertaken this difficult task in a clear and concise manner. He has bridged the gap of identifying changes in our society and their impact upon leisure service delivery systems. He challenges all segments of the leisure profession: educators, researchers, programmers and managers alike to deal with the future today. This book is required reading by all individuals who are involved in leisure services.
