The Sports Injury Handbook: An Athlete's Guide to Causes, Prevention and Treatment

"The sports injury handbook delivers everything expected for the...price tag and is a more than adequate reference aid. The book appeals to a wide range of students from different fields r from physiotherapy to human biology, from G.C.S.E to university level; that said younger readers may struggle with some of the terminology. On the positive side this acts as an ample base for the more advanced reader studying anything from physiotherapy to sport science. The sound base of information covered is supplemented well by colourful diagrams and neat descriptions regarding the nature of sports injuries and treatments of them. Credit must be given to this text as no other book is as concise, and well presented without comprimising on the detail. This is an essential buy for all coaches, teachers and students or anyone with an interest in the treatment of sports injuries; and with that price tag a great investment."
