Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a very well-illustrated and easy to follow guide to the physical structures of the body, organised into logical sections. It explains how the injuries occur and what the implications are in terms of impact upon your sport and more general physical activities. However, on treatment it is less full and clearly expects that the reader will consult professional help in the form of physiotherapists or other medical specialists. For someone looking for self-help treatment and exercises etc., other books are more useful, and the Grisogono 'Sports Injuries' book, though now out of print, still takes some beating in this regard. It can be bought second hand on Amazon and via other sources.

This is a very good book - easy to understand, read, find an injury and find some of the exercises that either help prevent it or help to get over it. In conjunction with "The Anatomy of Stretching" they make a good pair for any therapist.
Arrived really quickly too, and was a good price.
