Physical Education, Sports and the Sciences: Papers Presented in Honor of H. Harrison Clarke.
Broekhoff, Jan, Ed.
The papers included in this publication encompass research studies in physical fitness, the physiology of exercise, anthropometry, motor learning, teaching methodology, and personality. Many of these papers accentuate physical components; others identify different variables in the composite of personality such as the mental, social, and emotional characteristics affecting the physiology of an individual. Although there is no single pervading theme, the papers divide into several sub-fields: (1) the reminiscences of Dr. H. Harrison Clarke and the contributions of his colleagues and contemporaries; (2) measurement, evaluation, and physical fitness; (3) the physiology of exercise; (4) motor learning; (5) the relationships between morphology and function; and (6) the interaction of sports and personality. One paper contributes to the area of biomechanics. An author profile precedes each paper. A bibliography of the writings of H. Harrison Clarke is appended. (MM)
