Description

Why do young athletes choose to stay in sport instead of quitting? This book from Routledge explores the lived experience of talented young sportspersons as they strive for elite status. By moving away from standard approaches driven by instrumental rationality, this work offers a fresh perspective on the journey toward professional excellence. Using existential philosophy, phenomenology, and hermeneutics, the text provides a deep look into the psychological and philosophical realities of athletic development. It introduces the concept of elite-Bildung, drawing on ideas from educational philosophy to redefine how we understand the growth of a sportsperson. This book is an essential resource for those looking to understand the deeper meaning behind talent development and the human experience within the world of competitive sports.
