Noting a lack of research into how these games are planned and managed, the authors of this contributed volume discuss how the Paralympics are essentially different to the Olympics and what this means for their management. Managing the Paralympics explores how the organizers and connected stakeholders effectively organize and deliver the Paralympics, taking into account what has been learned from previous events. Including emergent models of best practice from event management, project management and sport management literature, the book gives an insight into the planning of one of the world?s biggest sporting events that encompasses ten impairment types and multiple sport classes within sports. . 606 $aManagement 606 $aTelemarketing 606 $aInternet marketing 606 $aSports$xSociological aspects 606 $aHuman body$xSocial aspects 606 $aTourism 606 $aCulture 606 $aManagement 606 $aDigital Marketing 606 $aSport Sociology 606 $aSociology of the Body 606 $aTourism Management 606 $aSociology of Culture 615 0$aManagement. 615 0$aTelemarketing. 615 0$aInternet marketing. 615 0$aSports$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aHuman body$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aTourism. 615 0$aCulture. 615 14$aManagement. 615 24$aDigital Marketing. 615 24$aSport Sociology. 615 24$aSociology of the Body. 615 24$aTourism Management. 615 24$aSociology of Culture. 676 $a658 702 $aDarcy$b Simon$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFrawley$b Stephen$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aAdair$b Daryl$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254914403321 996 $aManaging the Paralympics$92095775 997 $aUNINA
