"Every fan knows that individual talent is vital to a team. But sport psychologists understand that the key to success is to incorporate talent into a supportive team unit. The editors of Psychology of Team Sports have assembled a variety of articles to address the psychological issues related to team sport activities on and off the court or field. In addition to addressing the major theoretical concepts related to team sport activities, Psychology of Team Sports discusses the experiences of sport psychologists who have worked with professionals and national teams."Author/Editor: Ronnie Lidor, Keith Page Henschen
