Product Description

2002 BMA Book Competition Reviewer
What a publication! At last I have found a book that has unlocked a subject area that was previously dry, imposing and unattractive. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
This textbook integrates basic concepts and relevant scientific information to provide a foundation for understanding nutrition, energy transfer, and exercise training. The new Sixth Edition continues to provide excellent coverage of exercise physiology, uniting the topics of human performance, nutrition, energy expenditure and capacity, molecular biology, and more. Every chapter has been fully revised and updated to reflect the latest information. The updated full-color art program adds visual appeal and improves understanding of key topics. LiveAdvise online faculty support and student tutoring services are available free with the text. A bound-in CD-ROM contains questions to help students prepare for exams. A Connection Website provides additional faculty and student resources.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for the Exercise Physiologist / Sports scistudent, 11 Feb 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Exercise Physiology: Energy, Nutrition and Human Performance (Hardcover)
This book is aimed at the persons studying sports science or for the exercise physiologist, this book has great illustrations, and covers most topics, such as; nutrition, energy systems and human performance. I have used this book in completion of my BSc and my MSc

However in some areas the book can be quite technical for the layperson, but also gives a bibliography at the end of each section. But, this is the best book for the money, If you are looking for something more indepth then this is NOT the book for you, this book gives good knowlegde in all areas but does not specialise in any aspect, those looking for infomation on health and exercise will also find this book informative as it has a whole chapter dedicated to health related fitness, drugs in sport e.t.c from the sports science aspect and professional bodies such as the ACSM

Coaches and Gym instructors can also help themselves by reading this book as it would give them, an insight into WHY peolpe do the type of training they do, from a solid science base.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for 1st year BSc Sport / Human Biology - Comprehensive, 15 May 2008
By S. Squirrell "Suffolk Insomniac" (Suffolk, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have just finished by 1st year BSc Human biology and found this book very useful.... Great for general physiology themes as well as sports physiology. I even used it for information on a bomb calorimetry report!

Really useful information at the end of each chapter with detailed referencing and CD rom guide with reference lists you can print.... therefore great for searching original sources.

I cannot imagine you would be dissapointed with this purchase. It's an investment!
