Summary:

A thorough update of the standard reference in the field, the Second Edition of the much praised Oxford Textbook of Sports Medicine has been fully revised and restructured to make it even more user-friendly and comprehensive. The book covers: the principles of sports physiology and internal medicine as far as they relate to athletic performance; orthopedics and injuries to the soft tissues; and the physiological basis of fitness and training. A distinguished international panel of expert authors and editors provides a global, multidisciplinary approach to the subject with a very practical emphasis. New to this edition are sections on body composition, mechanical tests, the immunological aspects of sport, and overtraining.
