Textbook of Sports Medicine (PDF)

The Textbook of Sports Medicine provides comprehensive coverage of
both basic science and clinical aspects of sports injury and
physical activity. More than one hundred of the World's leading
authorities within exercise physiology, clinical internal medicine,
sports medicine and traumatology have contributed with
evidence-based state-of-the-art chapters to produce the most
complete integration ever of sports medicine science into one book.

Great attention has been given to providing balanced coverage of
all aspects of sports medicine, with respect to the relevance and
clinical importance of each area. The book isolates solid
principles and knowledge, and the documentation to support these,
as well as identifying areas where further scientific investigation
is needed. The topics dealt with and the degree of detail in the
individual chapters, makes the book ideal for both educational
programs at University level within exercise science and sports
medicine, as well as for post-graduate courses within all aspects
of sports medicine.

In addition, the book will be excellent as a reference book in
any place where professionals whether doctors, exercise scientists,
physiotherapists or coaches are dealing with supervision or
treatment of sports-active individuals. Finally, the book is well
structured to act as an introduction to research in the field of
sports medicine.
