Great book
Reviewed in the United States on 23 February 2014Verified Purchase
I am a coach in grad school and needed this book for one of my classes. I usually borrow from the library but once I started reading it I knew I needed my own copy to highlight in. I found and ordered the international edition to save money and it was exactly what I wanted (and, more importantly, comparable to what my instructor had!). I would highly recommend this book for coaches or anyone interested in the sport psychology field.
