Format:Hardcover
This second edition of the book is much improved, largely due to increased collaboration with sports medicine professionals, mainly from Australia. The chapters are updated and expanded and some new chapters are added. The improvement I liked most was the rehab programs which have been addeed to the text. As a sports physio, I found this invaluable. Essential reading for all involved in sports medicine.

Format:Hardcover
I had the first edition and this 2nd edition is a wonderful expansion and update. As a practicing physiotherapist I find myself referring to it every day. The illustrated physical examinations for each body part are extremely helpful and the clinical perspectives at the start of each chapter are great. I love the use of tables and figures - it has the most illustrations of any book like this I have seen. Great value, thanks a lot!

Format:DVD
Most of my fellow reviewers here seem to have missed that they are reviewing the book instead of the DVD, as listed.
I must say I am very disappointed in the DVD. Whilst it has pretty comprehensive review of examinations of the upper limb, in the lower limb only the knee gets any real attention. The hip and ankle are almost completely left out, apart from taping of the latter!
When an area is touched upon it is pretty superficially discussed. Basically there is a quick run through of the examination of that area, but no discussion of the theory accompanying it.
In short, for the areas actually included, this DVD would serve as nothing more than an aide memoire and certainly won't teach you examinations of pat.
It is a shame - the accompanying book is excellent and this DVD had the potential to be an excellent resource for the student sports practitioner.
I hope therefore that the shortcomings are addressed in future editions of this media.
