The link between structure and function of the musculoskeletal system is clarified and explained in this complete guide to clinical kinesiology. Kinesiology of the Musculoskeletal System is the most comprehensive, research-based, reader-friendly text on kinesiology ever published. Beautifully and abundantly illustrated in two-color, this dynamic, accessible resource presents complex scientific information in an approach designed to draw the reader in and explore the fundamental principles of kinesiology of the trunk and extremities as well as in relation to joints, muscles, and biomechanics.

  • Comprehensive coverage - not only of kinesiology of the trunk and extremitites, but also of the underlaying principles of kinesiology with respect to joints, muscles and biomechanics - explains the 'why?' as well as the 'how?'
  • A definitive chapter on the kinesiology of human gait!
  • Clear and reader-friendly, which is great for study and revision for students of all levels
  • "Special Focus" boxes throughout the text provide abundant clinical examples and gives the students a chance to probe deeper into the topic
  • "Topics at a Glance"at the beginning of each chapter, allow students with less time to quickly locate the essential information
  • Over 550 superb line-drawings - making difficult kinesiologic concepts easier to grasp

  • The author has many years of experience in physical therapy - specifically kinesiology - and is a teacher, clinician and researcher.
