From the book reviews:

"This book focuses on both the classroom and real-world application of exercise prescription, assessment, and testing of all individuals. ... The audience includes undergraduate and/or graduate students, exercise physiologists, and health behavior specialists. ... Its organization and clarity also enables readers to easily transition the information from classroom to real-world setting where it can have the most impact. This is a book that most undergraduates in an exercise-related health field should have in their library." (Erik H. Van Iterson, Doody's Book Reviews, April, 2015)
