Book Synopsis Fitness as Cultural Phenomenon by : Karin A. E. Volkwein-Caplan, Karin A. E. Volkwein
Book excerpt: The roots of the ongoing fitness movement go back to the 1970s in the USA; at the end of the 20th century this movement has successfully spread to other highly industrialized nations in the world, including Germany. It is not simply a response to the current health crisis in highly industrialized societies, rather fitness has become an integral part of modern life style.
