The book covers all the dimensions of Physical Education and Sports Sciences through nine major branches namely, Anthropometry, Biomechanics, Endurance, Flexibility, Hormones, Psychological Variables, Rehabilitation, Speed and Yoga. Each branch contains minimum fifty research abstracts. The abstracts contain introduction, methodology, results and conclusions. The author did not manipulate anything in the abstracts, since it may create big problem to him. A researcher can use it for his/her thesis as a review or even he/she may contact the corresponding author for seeking help in their respective research. The author has given the abstracts with variable index, thus, a reader can choose variables or find a particular variable without undue strain. The book contains the chapters: 1. Anthropometric Variables, 2. Biomechanical variables, 3. Endurance variables, 4. Flexibility variables, 5. Harmones variables, 6. Psychological variables, 7. Rehabilitation variables, 8. Speed variables, 9. Yoga variables.

Research is powerful tool for decision making which plays an important role in forecasting the way forward for growth and development and produce new knowledge. There are four cornerstones of a good research, which are a well formulated proposal that is well executed, analyzed, discussed and concluded. Creativity and critical thinking are of particular importance. The research in physical education and sports sciences has enhanced the development of the subject in all forms. Researchers within physical education aim to engage in research that enhance the understanding on how professional development can be improved, challenged and even transformed. The importance of research in physical education and sports sciences are becoming more and more performance focused. The book allows to learn about the research process and how it can be applied in the area of research. The book is written as per the revised syllabus, prescribed by N.C.T.E for Master of Physical Education. The focus behind this book is to provide adequate source of information to the students and language of the book is simple and easy to understand.

The text aims to provide an in-depth exploration of a range of traditions that are beginning to reshape the nature of research in physical education and the sports sciences. The chapters are all original contributions by leading scholars that bring together new data from a variety of research approaches. Each offers its own specific challenge to the orthodoxy that has dominated the field. A range of traditions are considered by the contributors who provide specific examples from their own work that include phenomenology, ethnography, life histories, discourse analysis, feminist research, curriculum history and action research. These cases are highlight for the reader the basic assumption of each approach, the significance of the understanding they develop, and their potential for the future development of research in physical education and sport. The forms of analysis provided should be of interest to a wider audience, such as students of education and the social sciences. It is aimed at physical education researchers, BEd, MEd, BSc, MSc courses on physical education and sport and teachers of sports science.
