Product Description

Review
On the first edition: '... clear, relevant and concise delivery ...' American College of Sports Medicine, 1993 ' ... this is an excellent text which I would thoroughly recommend ...' British J. of Sports Medicine, 1994 'I found the chapters relating to technical aspects of swimming to be easily understood and lucid, and much more so than the numerous other (sic) swim coaching books ....' Journal of Sports Sciences, 1994 '... informative and an extremely stimulating read.' J. of Osteopathic Education. Vol.2, No.2. 1992

Product Description
"Swimming" is a further volume in the "Handbook of Sports Medicine and Science" series, published under the auspices of the International Olympic Committee, and focuses on interpreting current knowledge in the subject. This second edition updates the highly successful first edition edited by Costill, Maglischo and Richardson which was published in the early 1990s. The intention of the new editors is to interpret current sports science knowledge as it specifically pertains to coaching swimmers at club, county or national level. The handbook is not intended to be a scientist-to-scientist textbook, but rather a scientist-to-physician/coach/trainer/athlete/parent handbook. The up-to-date information about the medicine and science of swimming is presented in a clear and readable style designed to be directly practical.
