Product Description

Product Description

"Biomechanical Basis of Human Movement" integrates basic anatomy, physics, calculus, and physiology for the study of human movement. The book provides a uniquely quantitative approach to biomechanics, and is organized into three parts: Foundations of Human Movement, Functional Anatomy, and Mechanical Analysis of Human Motion. New to this edition: basic mathematics information, increased practical applications, and a new chapter on emphasizing techniques for measuring the strength of human tissue. Now every copy of the book comes with Innovision Systems' MaxTRAQ software, specially customized for "Biomechanical Basis of Human Movement, Second Edition". This downloadable motion analysis software offers you an easy to use tool to track data and analyze various motions selected by the authors.

Buy this book 29 Jan 2010
Format:Hardcover
This book covers all aspects of biomechanics within human movement. I found it helped greatly with my course and would recommend it to anyone, the book also had an injury section which was useful. overall this book had information on all aspects of human movement from Kinematics to functional anatomy.

Essential reading for all students of movement sciences 2 April 2000
By Jane Hall - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
This book provides essential information for the undergraduate student of movement science and will be of interest to physiotherapists, biomechanists and exercise specialists. It covers the musculoskeletal and neurological considerations for movement, functional anatomy and kinetic and kinematic analysis of human motion. The sections on functional anatomy are particularly helpful as they combine the regional anatomical facts with useful biomechanical information in a way that I have not seen before. The book is highly readable and the many diagrams and figures enhance the reader's understanding. All in all a book that is worth buying.

Biomechanical Basis of Human Movement 28 Feb 2011
By DFreedI990 - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
The book is very in-depth and helpful. The practice questions at the end of each chapter are very helpful in order to know whether or not you truly understand the material. Overall I would recommend this book to anyone who is taking a Biomechanics class or even someone who just wants to learn more about the physics behind human movements.
