Choice Review
Adapted Aquatics Programming presents a comprehensive overview concerning inclusion, accommodation, and other salient issues related to individuals with varying disabilities. The text is divided into three well-constructed segments (foundations, instruction, and programming), each containing valuable information, guidelines, and resources for those involved in adapted aquatics. Also addressed are current issues and concerns ranging from inclusion to self-contained programming. The text traces the evolution of water exercise used as a therapeutic medium through US laws (P.L. 101-476; P.L. 101-336) that have served to impact the profession. Current adapted aquatics models for individualized instructional planning are offered, as well as an excellent section dedicated to safe and successful adapted aquatics programming. The text is well referenced and contains helpful appendixes for sport skill screening and assessment. Recommended for students pursuing degrees in kinesiology, physical education, therapeutic recreation, or the teaching of special populations. M. L. Krotee University of Minnesota
