Just in time to help climbers of the new federal pyramid for better health, Allen (applied life studies librarian, U. of Illinois Urbana-Champaign) has compiled and evaluated nearly 1000 information sources on sports and fitness. The guide covers traditional reference sources, such as encyclopedias and bibliographies, along with instructional sources in print formats, online databases and websites. The chapters are organized thematically according to broad type, such as aquatic sports, racket sports and ball sports, and then further categorized by individual sports, such as swimming, tennis and football.
