Abstract

In this pivotal work, the editors have painted the current landscape on the state of play in the context of culture-- not only who gets to play but the equity, availability, and cultural appropriateness of play spaces and materials. The broad topical essays give consideration to time and opportunity for play across various settings with careful attention to the lens through which the narrative is told. The lens here is both inclusive and representative; however, from a North American perspective. Adding a global lens could be a way in which the authors consider a next project.
