Especially in a post-devolution era, Scottish history and Scotland deserve better than this.Scotland: The Making and Unmaking of the Nation, c.1100-1707 is certainly designed to provoke but need not be taken to indicate a nationalist view of 1707 as a moment of eclipse. Scotland?s history, like all histories, resists simple generalisations. Were it otherwise, its study would not be so rewarding. 606 $aHISTORY / Europe / General$2bisacsh 607 $aScotland$xHistory$y1057-1603 607 $aScotland$xChurch history$yTo 1500 607 $aScotland$xPolitics and government$y1371-1707 607 $aScotland$xHistory$y17th century 615 7$aHISTORY / Europe / General. 676 $a941.102 700 $aHarris$b Bob, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0439740 702 $aHarris$b Bob$f1964- 702 $aMacDonald$b Alan R.$f1969- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822513303321 996 $aScotland$94086266 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04452nam 22006375 450 001 9911031676303321 005 20251001130705.0 010 $a3-031-91046-X 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-91046-3 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32323211 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32323211 035 $a(CKB)41528617100041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-91046-3 035 $a(EXLCZ)9941528617100041 100 $a20251001d2025 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aCrossFit $eCommodity, Community, Contested Terrain /$fedited by Marcelle C.

CrossFit has emerged as a prominent fixture across the global sporting and cultural landscape. Developed initially as an exercise programme to promote functional fitness, CrossFit has undergone a rapid metamorphosis into a global, multi-dimensional, multi-million-dollar industry. Branded as ?the sport of fitness?, it is part sport, part fitness, but also part exercise-military-regime with religious underpinnings. Perhaps best known for its unconventional approach to fitness that combines high intensity exercises with functional fitness performed in a group setting, CrossFit has surpassed the growth of well-known fitness franchises. It boasts approximately 15,000 affiliates worldwide, while, by comparison, the world?s largest gym franchise, Anytime Fitness, has around 4,500 franchises globally. Beyond its comprehensive fitness regime and global appeal, CrossFit claims to offer a supportive community, which aims to ensure that people exercise together as a group versus rather than as isolated individuals in a group context, or what has been referred to as ?together alone?. The tight-knit ? almost insular ? nature of this community, as well as some of its more extreme practices, have led followers and detractors alike to characterise CrossFit as a cult. Yet, despite its exalted position within the popular physical culture imaginary, critical scholarly analysis of CrossFit has only recently emerged. This book will appeal to students of sociology, media studies, sport studies, and/ or gender studies. Marcelle C.
