Sports Injuries: Their Prevention and Treatment

"Having owned this publication for over a year it has proved invaluable both as a knowledge base and referance tool in the diagnosis and treatment of numerous sports injuries.The text and graphics are exellent, although the rehab section could be expanded and made user friendly.All in all essential reading."

"This is an extremely comprehensive read. It covers the complete range of sports injuries and is packed with clear and helpful photographs and colour illustrations. The book is laid out sensibly by body part and a summary is given at the start of each chapter with a labelled photo of possible injury sites so you can go straight to the problem area.
I would hope a copy of this is on the bookshelf of every physio and sports therapist!"

"This is the third edition of this excellent text on sport injuries. Although a 'heavy' subject to cover this book is an excellent guide to the prevention and treatment of sporting injuries. Although the book is primarily aimed at those people who work in the field of caring for these types of injuries, I would suggest that anyone who is serious about sport reads this book as the preventative aspect is very good.the section on methods of treatment for the injuries is especially very informative and quite easy to follow even though it has been written by two eminent orthopaedic surgeons (no disrespect intended). If you are serious about getting the most out of yourself or your athletes without causing injury then I strongly advise you by this book. I have read the second edition and the third edition is even better."
