Description

An interactive text ideal for all health and sports professional students who require a basic understanding of the major biomechanical principles they meet in practice, including movement analysis and tissue mechanics. Starting from the point of zero-knowledge, this book presents what can be a very dry and difficult area, in an engaging and visual way using everyday objects to illustrate the principles and linking this to human anatomy and movement . Less time is spent on mathematics and classic mechanics with greater emphasis on how these principles are applied to professional practice

Introductory Biomechanics uses workbook�style learning diffusing manageable chunks of theory with learning activities and ultimately making the link back to clinical application.

Problems are posed to help students work through the theory and apply it to clinical scenarios
Boxes containing additional information on many subjects extend knowledge or provide historical perspective to the principle in question
