Biography
Timothy Kellison is Associate Professor and Director of the Center for Sport and Urban Policy at Georgia State University, USA. His research is primarily focused on sport in the urban environment, with special emphasis in sport ecology, urban and regional planning, public policy, and politics. He is coeditor of the Routledge Handbook of Sport and Sustainable Development and the Routledge Handbook of Sport and the Environment.
“an impressive and accessible book focused on the sustainability of sport’s physical structures, their impact on the environment, and the connection to environmental justice specifically in minority communities ... In the classroom, the text could serve as a primary option for environmental justice, or sport ecology courses, as well as a supplemental text in sport and facility management. For me, the value of the text is particularly clear if used as a reference or secondary reader in the abundant sport facility and event management classes across the globe. Finally, despite sport ecology and sustainability receiving increased attention in recent years in sport management literature, the text is positioned to address a glaring gap in that literature through its connection of stadia, the environment, and justice.” - Adam G. Pfleegor, Siena College, USA, Journal of Sport Management
