Description

A second edition of this textbook of sports science and medicine. The volume covers the principles of sports physiology and internal medicine as it relates to athletes and their performance, orthopaedics and injuries to the soft tissues, and the physiological basis of training and fitness maintenance. The panel of authors take a multidisciplinary and international approach with a practical emphasis on the treatment of sports injuries. The second edition has been fully up-dated and restructured for increased ease of use and includes additional sections on: body composition; mechanical tests; immunological aspects of sport; and overtraining. The book is aimed at sports medicine specialists, orthopaedic and trauma surgeons, rheumatologists, sports science researchers, sports clinics, physical education students, physiotherapists, general practitioners, athletes and team physicians.
