Book excerpt: This book traces the dominant shift over the last century from an idea of physical education-as-gymnastics to an idea of physical-education-as-sport-technique, and outlines the contemporary processes of commodification and commercialiZation of physical culture and academicization of teaching that have already begun to make this emphasis on sport-related skills problematic.
